Take a closer look at the most talked-about Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G

The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G received positive feedback from tech reviewers worldwide, calling the device “near perfect,” “refined,” and “the most polished” according to CNN US, CNET, and Forbes, among others. With its immersive screen, S Pen capability, reassuring durability, and productivity-enhancing features, who wouldn’t be eager to give the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G a try?

For those unsure of how to get the best out of foldable devices, take a closer look at the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G, which ticks all the boxes when it comes to productivity and reliability.

The Power of S Pen

The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is the first foldable phone in Galaxy to support the S Pen. The intuitive tool allows users to draw or take notes by hand, thus further enhancing productivity.

When users press the text conversion button before writing, their handwritten notes automatically convert into typed text. Two types of S Pen are set to be released: the ‘S Pen Fold Edition’, which comes with the Flip Cover and can be used exclusively on the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G, and the ‘S Pen Pro’, which has built-in Bluetooth and can be used with certain tablets.[1]

The cutting-edge features and usability don’t stop there. In order to provide the best possible folding smartphone experience, Samsung is constantly working with a range of partners to develop apps that are optimized for the large screen of the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G, such as ‘Microsoft Teams’, ‘Microsoft Office’ and ‘Google Duo’.

Do it all with a durable device

Not impressed yet? The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G has a water resistance rating of IPx8,[2] which means it can withstand accidental splashes and rain.

The unwavering durability gives further peace of mind. The new protective film on the phone’s main displays, for instance, increase screen durability by 80 percent compared to its predecessor. The device is also built with ‘Armor Aluminum’ and enhanced ‘Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus™’, which are some of the strongest materials ever used in smartphones.

No need to worry much about the phone getting scratched when placed into a small bag with other items. Likewise, feel confident keeping the phone in the pocket with other items to easily have it on hand right away when in need to make calls or take photos.

Designed to give a comfortable grip

The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is lighter, thinner, and narrower than its predecessor, giving it a more comfortable grip and better portability, even for those with smaller hands. When folded, the phone’s horizontal width is 67.1mm, which is a 0.9mm reduction from its predecessor.

The fingerprint scanner on the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is also mounted at the point where the thumb touches the device, which allows for more convenient use of the device’s large cover screen. This means users no longer have to place their fingers on the screen to unlock the phone. The top, bottom, and sides of the phone were also designed with bold, clean lines to provide smoother usability.

Putting pro in productivity

With ‘Multi-Active Window’, The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G helps users enhance their multi-tasking skills. This feature allows them to do things like checking their schedules while browsing the internet, and taking down notes, among other things.

The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G has added the ‘Task Bar’ feature to help move quickly and conveniently between apps. Not only does this allow users to launch the app that they use most often without navigating to the home screen, but it also enables them to open their most-used combination of apps all at once.

In addition, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G has a 120Hz refresh rate for both its Main and Cover screens, leading to a smooth experience when scrolling or playing media. When in places where it is more convenient to use the phone’s Cover Screen, this allows users to comfortably view news articles and other media while enjoying smooth, uninterrupted transitions.
