Samsung Galaxy Z Flip deals and reviews

What the critics say (scores are out of 100)

100	Android Authority | David Imel The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip may be the best foldable smartphone made to date. Read full review
100	The Guardian | Samuel Gibbs Buy the Galaxy Z Flip if you want something different, but only if you can stomach the uncertainty surrounding its durability. You might get three years of problem-free use out of it, but then you might not. Read full review
86	Pickr | Leigh Stark This is a world where phones have continuously managed to get bigger, despite our pants pockets staying roughly the same. It's so nice to see a phone focus on being smaller, that it has almost become that phone that we choose to go to for the everyday slog. Honestly, it just needs a better camera and we'd be there. Recommended. Read full review
86	Firstpost | Nandini Yadav This foldable device is for people who love a little attention, the ones who really miss flip phones, and the ones want to be a part of the future tech league. Read full review
85	Mr Phone | Ershad Kaleebullah I am convinced that the Galaxy Z Flip is the best foldable phone yet with the best performance as well. And therefore, if you are planning on buying one just pull the trigger eyes closed. This is most definitely a better foldable phone overall compared to the Moto Razr. Read full review
83	TheEffect.Net | John Reilly If you're one of those Prosumers who is always keen to experience cutting edge tech, the Z Flip is an interesting proposition and one that's not just work in progress. Read full review
82	NotebookCheck | Daniel Schmidt The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is particularly convincing with its folding concept, which is much easier to handle in everyday life than other smartphones with such a large display. Besides, it's simply a joy to fold the smartphone with one hand. Read full review
80	IT PRO | Jon Honeyball ... if your priority is taking amazing photos, there are far better options than the Galaxy Z Flip; most notably the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra Read full review
80	Stuff | Basil Kronfli The easiest foldable to recommend thanks to excellent design, despite its sky-high price and 2019 internals. Read full review
80	AndroidPit | David McCourt If you want a clamshell phone with smartphone features, the Z Flip is pretty much your only option right now (aside from the Razr), and that makes it the coolest smartphone on the market right now. Read full review
80	Expert Reviews | Jon Honeyball The Z Flip is certainly the most appealing foldable around, but until the price drops it will remain a niche product. Read full review
80	What Mobile | Emilla Koistinen The phone is good, there's no doubt, but its price is a serious downside, primarily because you can find phones with better specs for far less money. Read full review
80	India Today | Sushant Talwar The Galaxy Z Flip is a head-turner, one that's nothing like you've seen before. Hold it in your palm and it won't only make you feel special, but will also give you the thrill of using a device that's truly the first of its kind -- a thrill that's you won't even get out of the much expensive Galaxy Fold or the Moto Razr. Read full review
80	The Economic Times | Debashis Sarkar The Galaxy Z Flip is the most practical foldable phone to buy if you have the money. Backed with impressive hardware and camera capabilities, this smartphone is stylish and will definitely turn heads. Read full review
80	AVForums | David Phelan This is a phone that's highly enjoyable to use, and works very well. Oh, and it's a real head-turner. When people see it, they want to touch it, fold it, put it in their pocket and marvel at the design. Read full review
80	The Indian Express | Nandagopal Rajan ... if you just want a phone that ticks all boxes and also has one trick up its sleeve, the Galaxy Z Flip unfolds itself seeking your attention. This is for me a no-nonsense phone that just works. This is one of the best Android devices you can own at the moment. Read full review
80	Input | Raymond Wong If you don't care about the foldable display risks or paying an insane amount of money, the Z Flip is the best foldable phone that exists today. Read full review
80	Android Central | Nirave Gondhia The Galaxy Z Flip takes a modern smartphone shape, and lets you fold it in half. It features a folding glass cover/display, a decent camera, flagship specs and decent battery life. There are compromises aplenty, namely in price and potential screen fragility, but this foldable gets closer than any prior to being a well-rounded phone. Read full review
80	Tom's Guide | Adam Ismail The Galaxy Z Flip's flip phone design is a lot more appealing than the book-like approach of the Galaxy Fold. If the cameras work as promised, this could be one appealing foldable device. Read full review
80	Forbes | Patrick Moorhead Currently, there is not a device on the market like Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip. Yes, there is the Razr but it has low specs, and the durability, in my opinion, is too low for anything more than a feature phone. Read full review
80	Gizmodo UK | Sam Rutherford Honestly, the biggest compliment I can give the Z Flip is that it feels a lot like a traditional smartphone, but with the ability to bend the screen in half and end calls by slamming the phone shut, which is really goddamn satisfying. Read full review
80	Pocket-lint | Chris Hall For many people, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip will meet their requirements in battery, camera and power, providing something unique that looks great; but for the gamers, enthusiasts and power users, the Galaxy Z Flip is probably a compromise might not want to make. Read full review
79	CNET | Jessica Dolcourt The Galaxy Z Flip is the best foldable phone I've ever used. Read full review
78	Engadget | Chris Velazco At the end of it all, you want to ditch your current phone for something ambitious and exciting, the Galaxy Z Flip is your best, most elegant option. All I ask is that you remember this: Buying one doesn't just mean you're getting a new phone. It also means you're rolling the dice. Read full review
76	Mashable India | Shomik Sen Bhattacharjee If Samsung's first bite at the foldable phone cherry was a bleeding-edge luxury device meant for tech enthusiasts, then the Galaxy Z Flip, is a more refined product meant for the masses. Read full review
75	PCWorld | Fergus Halliday With the Galaxy Z Flip, the future isn't quite here but it feels like Samsung are so very close. Read full review
70	TechRadar | Matt Swider The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is the flip-phone-style foldable smartphone with a 6.7-inch display that collapses in half. Its novelty will turn heads, but so will its extraordinarily high price. Read full review
70	Trusted Reviews | Henry Burrell ... if it appeals and you can afford it, there's a lot of fun to be had with its completely new form factor, top performance and solid battery life. Read full review
65	phoneArena | Nick Todorov Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is a terrible phone. Behind the flashy, foldable design stands an underwhelming phone that solves one problem but creates ten more. Read full review
60	PC Mag | Sascha Segan The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is the first folding phone to really work, but it's still a costly and potentially fragile fashion object rather than a mainstream hit. Read full review
60	The Verge | Dieter Bohn At the end of the day, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is still an expensive curiosity that you shouldn't buy. But it is a sign that something far less curious and far more normal is actually possible. Read full review
