Samsung's 2023 clamshell flip phone is easily the series' biggest upgrade ever. Not only does it best the larger-screened Razr 40 Ultra, but having dug deeper into it, it feels like the best folding phone in this design format. Here's why it's flippin' great but still not quite perfect...
The Z Flip 5 is a true step-change in design compared to its predecessor, as it features a much larger cover display: it's 3.4 inches across the diagonal, significantly up on the 1.9-inch panel of the Z Flip 4. And it looks great.
It's not just that the screen is larger, though; it's altogether more functional too. It's highly responsive - which means using a batch of widgets (that vary from animated wallpapers, to a calendar, plus some limited apps use) is a cinch.
Flip the Z Flip 5 open and its 6.7-inch internal screen is more or less the same as its predecessor. The same size, just as high-res, with 120Hz refresh rate (it's only 60Hz on the cover), and same brightness (the larger Z Fold 5 gets a brightness boost).
