Samsung Z Flip 5 “Real Review” - Now This is an UPGRADE! 

Hi flossy

Big Salute! 🫡

Respect from Morocco 🫡🇲🇦

Salute!

Yalzaa!

Exactly! I remember having a drink while unboxing and looking at all the accessories and reading the little booklets lol

@@FlossyCarter Yes! Sitting in the middle of your living room floor spreading everything out all over the place lol.

​@@FlossyCarterwould u recommend a flip 5 or the s23 ultra?

I agree. The box that came with my fold 3 was so cool in the way it opened up. When I got my fold 5 box yesterday I was a bit let down.

Exactly, I think I saw motorola include a bunch of stuff with their razr plus but that might have just been a chinese model

I don't care about the packaging but yeah I need a charging adapter because I lose all mine. Doesn't matter how many I have, they're gonna get lost lol

@@mogdor That sounds like a personal flaw like people who keep dropping their phone have lol. I still got every single wire and charging block since the Galaxy s9 as well as iphone chargers since the iphone 4 lol.

@@hobbitpsi Oh I know I still have them, I just can't find them because I'm a slob and have no sense of organization. I never drop my phone though lol

@@mogdor cool. another person to prove the video creator wrong as he claims "everyone drops their phone" lol

@mogor amazon has charging bricks 2-3/pack, only make sure it says fast charging in the description

I’m like you floss, I want my monies worth…why I’m gonna let THEM get the better deal…I’m supposed to be getting the deal…I buy iems sometimes just for the unboxing experience…Chumps don’t mind getting finessed and I’ve worked hard for my money and I ain’t no Chump…😊

I always watch Floss reviews for that down to earth, "real", reviews.

Keep making those excellent videos flossy Carter

hows the battery lyf

Sold my 14 Pro Max - picked up the 5 - looking forward to something different. 💯

​@@yourfaceistube How you liking it? I bought a 15 Pro Max and thinking of returning it for the flip 5 (with 12 pro trade in and student discount I can get it for 400 instead of 850 for the 15 Pro Max). I checked it out in store today and it seemed great, but we all know there's a huge difference between using it for 20 minutes vs buying it and using it every day.

@@saitodosan9377 my only beef was that I kept having to open and close it very often for work when scanning things. It’s definitely got a cool factor , but also lack some practicality, like not being able to take a picture with the rear camera obviously when it’s closed, only a selfie, of course. And a few other things that didn’t necessarily keep my love for it. I’ve sold it .

​@@saitodosan9377did you end up getting the flip?

I totally agree! Flossy covers just about every feature a new phone has and does a great comparison to the previous model, as well as other phones with similar features. I watch and listen to everything he has. I value his opinion more than anyone else's!

cringe 🤡

You're flipping right he is!

No flip flopping with floss.

​@@beaualoevvAll you do is hate on people. Seen it on the MMA pages. Loser.

​@@beaualoevvno need for a face reveal

That's crazy because I sold my fold 4 after a few months because the outside screen was way too narrow and bad to use. I hated having to walk around in public with an unfolded monster, I felt like a jackass.

@PackMan13x you definitely would look like a jacksss. Lol major. Good move selling that.

@@PackMan13x😂

Hows the battery life on it?

@ahmeda4792 I don't really have any "real-world" tests, if that makes any sense?? I drive a lot for work, so I am always near a charger. When I go to the gym, it stays locked in my car, and I play music from my watch... Sooo I don't really stress test the battery much. I don't think I've gone below 50% since I got it?

So an upgrade?

I'm considering doing the same in November. I'm tired of all the weight of my Z Fold 3 5G, poor battery life, etc. I even bought the Samsung case (w/S pen) and don't even use it. The only redeeming feature of the Z Fold 3 5G is the Samsung DeX, which I can use to stream services like Max to my TV. Otherwise, a very overpriced phablet (and I have the Galaxy Tab S6 tablet to work and watch movies, etc., on a portable device)...

@diannehortonpong1388 for the price of the upgrade to get a fold 5 I was able to get a flip 5 and tab s9+ (on presale pricing) a win win.

@@diannehortonpong1388 currently use both a flip 5 and fold 3. The flip is deffo a more comfortable and enjoyable phone to use day in and out as its lighter, narrower and smaller when folded. The inner screen on the fold though is good for viewing media though!.

I've been using the same Samsung no camera flip phone since 2006. Resisted upgrading because the newer phones got so large. Saw this model in the store and all else paled in comparison. 17 years is a LONG time ago tech wise, I'm sure I will be amazed.😮

Iphone doesn't include nothing in the box either. Why penalize only Samsung?

Oh dude, I was rocking goodlock and nova on mine and it made it the absolute perfect phone.

I like the design better on Samsung as well. Having the cameras in the display to me messes with me to much. Hole punches dynamic island etc to me ruins the display experience.

From my experience with the flip 5. That bigger outer display basically uses the same setup as the Galaxy watch, so it's kind of like they designed it so you don't need to watch with it. Now aside from the health tracking, yeh with the flip 5 theres really no need for the watch unless you just really want the watch.

I sent the fold 5 back and kept the s23 ultra. Gotta hold Samsung responsible for trying to get people to buy the same phone. They should have made that front screen larger. Zero excuse and now the Chinese competition is winning

Ugh yeah I'm torn on the one for those reasons. Probably just get the s23 ultra but want something a bit different.

@@chuckgamble5696 I had the fold 4 and that narrow front display was intolerable, could not wait to get back to a normal size phone. It's basically useless when wanting to do normal browsing

@@AchillesNYCsame i sent mine back i rather get a flip5 and have the the s23

@@AchillesNYC lol love how you say that when the s23 ultra is basically just the s22 ultra with an upgraded processor. Like FR they may have made the sides more flat, but it's the SAME PHONE! lmao. I had the s22 ultra and the s23 ultra and the Folds 3 and 4. Neither of those were any real different from their predecessor. So you basically contradicted yourself by saying you went back to the s23 ultra because the fold 5 is just the same as the fold 4. lmao

Thanks brother! Yeah I definitely can’t be mad at Samsung with this upgrade deal, it’s basically like getting it for free lol

@@FlossyCarter Their deal just ended...sucks cause was waiting til i got paid next week to buy the flip 5 and would have only spent $400 with my trade, but with deal over I'd be paying almost $600. ah well... I was leaving AT&T anyway due to their stupid policy where phones on installment plans can't be used on other accounts otherwise they blacklist them, which destroys the trading game in the community... So I'll be getting a flip 5 with a new carrier which is fine cause, for both t-mobile and verizon especially t-mobile, it looks like I can get a flip 5 with trade in and new line for absolutely $0. I'm down with that.

Dam I miss radio shack lol I use to get walker talkies from there lol

@@FlossyCarter sane here..lol

Seriously, U comparing S21 Ultra with Flip? Two different category tho

this phones cameras mega oversharpened are trash for anyone, your grandma even notices that they look pixelated

Bro this phone is not for media its for comfortability, text, and quick access. Its a flip phone bro lol

Which case?

Yes, which case

@@bushybwoy The company is GuFire. I got it on Amazon.

You're interested in getting this phone

phones used to be 900$ max and it came with everything even with earphones

@@sanfury That's almost exactly what I said.

I 100% agree with you. I talk about presentation on my channel all the time. It matters!

💯

@nkmensah I'm not failing to account for inflation. Inflation has nothing to do with receiving less things in the box than we use to. This whole thing where companies don't put chargers, dongles, screen protectors or even headphones started long before the inflation we're seeing today. Plus.... during inflation like there is now, that doesn't equate to spending more for less. In the world of inflation, we're spending a lot more for the same products than just two years ago. We're spending more money for just a phone than we are for a phone, charger, dongle, headphones, screen protector, etc that came in the same package. If I'm paying top dollar for a product, I want all the basic accessories with it instead of paying more to buy them separately. E waste? I don't give two shits about e waste, especially when it comes to getting the bang for my buck. One household with at least one USB adapter I guess would be fine if there was only one person in that household instead of a whole family sharing one USB adapter. You'd be in denial if you said otherwise. 🙄

Appreciate that

The Fold5 folded is small though, and it can easily fit in your pocket.

Same! The battery life kinda turns me off from switching tho :(

@itsaperson8403 battery life doesn't bother me so much considering I always have a back up battery with me at all times

@@nosaj03 maybe i should invest in a backup battery..

Idk if you did it or not but i switched my s21 ultra for the Flip 5 and tbh im loving it especially how small it is folded and how convenient it is. I take a lot of pictures for my job and the camera is amazing tbh. I dont miss my s21 ultra at all .

Samsung's not dropping the flip anytime soon. It's literally their best selling device out of all their phone series.

Far as I know from my experience, AOD is AOD and when charging, mine stayed on by default.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bingo!!!

Both are good. Got an iPhone 14 pro max but I'm bored. Ios 17 boring. Back to samsung for good. I'm stoll debating on fold 5 or flip 5.

It'll break first

100% correct

Glad you enjoyed it!

Who said I was crazy? 😂😂😂

@@FlossyCarter You're crazy accurate on the point of the video, and your expressiveness makes this crazy mix of a review stand out so well I watched nothing's video and it had a snippet of your nothing phone 2 review, that little jokey bit was nice
