      For the price, it's almost criminal they did not include Dex Mode. There are a few mid range devices that have Dex Mode and this one doesn't?

        Previously was 92h for Z Flip 4, now 75h? I guess they had repeated the test as they were doubtful about the results.

              LoneOwl, 05 Aug 2023Next year Samsung, or maybe 6months later if this is half price.Keep waiting then. Even Z4 dropped only about 15 % of its price.

                The crease is there for a reason. Selling the phones without a crease is fraudulent and the reason crease-less Chinese phones has been vapourware up until the 2023 Razr models.

                Spoiler alert: The Flip5 is still going strong at 200k+ flips, while the Razr broke at around 120k.

                  So the battery rating is somewhat better than the Razr 40 Ultra, but way off from Oppo Find N2 Flip and Vivo X Flip. It goes to show that big battery still wins the day.

                    There's no way I can get used to the crease, no frigging way. If I do then I'll be one of those hypocrite people. A $1000 phone and hypocrite person LMAO. Better buy the S9 tab then this crap

                      The only thing better on the Razr 40 Ultra (Razr Plus) is the cover display. That's it. I was going to get the Razr Plus but couldn't get as good of a deal as I could to get the Flip 5 so that's what I got. I really wanted the Razr Plus, but I think I'll be just as happy with the Flip 5. It's superior in a number of ways, although truthfully, I only cared about the one: Software and Security updates for FIVE years. Motorola doesn't come close. Also, the camera is better on the Flip 5, and it actually has water resistance which the Razr Plus does not have. I couldn't care less about DeX. I never use it. If I want to use it, I still have a Galaxy S23 that I will not part with. In two or three years from now, I'll use either the Flip 5 or my S23 as collateral for a trade in to get my wife's next cell phone.

It's clear you are a brand hater from your previous comments. Always looking for something to criticize pixels and Samsung phones for

                            Seems that the verdict is missing in the review.

                                Nothing to do with SoC power.

                                  Next year Samsung, or maybe 6months later if this is half price.

                                    Correct white balance is critical for good photography. Giving you as much raw data to work with as possible. Adding or removing saturation to post processing is an esthetic choice. This does not affect white balance.
