    Looks like Samsung blue eye phone

      if they can make midrange and somewhat lowrange phones with a smaller frame that would be much better than these flips, people are tired of phablets FFS.

      also, the heating issue isn't really an issue if you don't play games on the phone, so the majority of its buyers are safe.

        With that heating, this phone is DOA.
        Don't know why GSMa are bothering with it, even trying to justify it price wise.
        So if you have to leave the phone to cool down, otherwise you will burn yourself, that's a Health & Safety issue.

          Best if you get a normal bar phone instead. It has so many better specs, and this phone's screen most likely can't last any more than 2 years.

            Normal Tecno with D8050 cost around $250 flip cost around $650 that's 160% premium.

            Normal Samsung phone with sd 8 gen 2 $800 and z flip 5 is $1000 that's just 25% premium from s23.

                There were better soc which could easily sustain perfomance like D1080, Sd 778G etc but These guys always use discounted soc.

                      Why do they use a hot and battery-guzzling SoC like the Dimensity 8050?Isn't there a better soc?

                        Hemedans, 22 Sep 2023If it could sustain D8050 atleast your point would make sen... moreUsing 8 Gen 2 will be worse, even 8+ Gen 1 on the Razr won't work and that just makes the phone more expensive.

                            in Europe close to 70% use Android so your statement is completely wrong and made up.

                                  rizki1, 22 Sep 2023So using hot 8 Gen 2 is better?If it could sustain D8050 atleast your point would make sense, but this phone can't cool midrange soc and throttle to ~60% what's the point then? That score is lower than Helio G99 BTW.

                                  Even Razr with with sd 7 gen 1 manage better score.

                                      Doesnt open flat and the crease looks awful. Think ill skip this one.

                                      How on Earth can it not open flat???

                                        Just get a Samsung Z Flip 4 instead of this.
