    So far the Z Flip series has been terrible, when it comes durability, and I'm hoping this might finally be better, but I have no reason to believe that it actually is.

    Water resistance isn't the problem, it's the display.

      Even a Galaxy Note 4 is lasting a good 7 years+, no cap. In fact, I have it.

      Also, the cover screen size of RAZR 40 Ultra is barely any bigger, and 144hz refresh rate for the cover screen is unnecessary for a screen which can only be used for checking messages, seeing Google Maps and watching videos.

        Yeah, which is one of the major selling points of a Flip type phone. If you want the most powerful phone, you are better off getting a regular slab flagship or a gaming phone anyways and if you want the best camera on a phone, then again you are better off getting a normal flagship.

        "Software and Security updates for FIVE years."

        Pointless, as the phone physically won't even last 2 years.

        "..Flip 5, and it actually has water resistance.."

        Would you honestly dare to take either the Flip 5 or the Razr 40 Ultra anywhere near water? Rain they can both easily survive and even Samsung's own website says not to take the phone near pools and beach areas.

          Droid Terminator, 02 Aug 2023Sadly we are comparing the internal Flip 5 screen which is ... moreThe 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.

            Droid Terminator, 02 Aug 2023I see, so you didn't understand that happened. Samsung... moreYeah, but who would play games on the cover screen anyways.

                Droid Terminator, 02 Aug 2023Yes you are right but you will play Asphalt 9 on a poor 60H... moreAsphalt 9 has a 60fps cap anyways

                  Droid Terminator, 02 Aug 2023You love so much Samsung that you can even say the 60Hz and... moreDo you have comprehension issues? I only said 60hz is enough for normal usage of the cover screen and did not say 144hz and 60hz is the same.

                    We spoke about the Flip 5 but we forget to mention that the Flip 5 doesn't not support the Dex mode. Dex mode it is when you connect your phone to a TV and use it like a PC. But the Razr 40 Ultra do support that. With an honest thought I think the best Flip phone is the Razr 40 Ultra although the Flip 5 may sell more but it will get a strong competition this year from the Razr 40 Ultra.

                      I really enjoyed watching people be in cognitive dissonance, but I want to give my opinion as objective as possible for any buyer or person interested in either the Z Flip 5 or Razr 40. There were 3 main points people debated about, the outer display and it's quality and use cases, the performance and the general battle between companies.

                      Firstly, the outer display. Yes, it's a fact that the display on the Razr is larger and has a better refresh rate, but arguments like "Oh, what if I want to play Asphalt 8 on the outer display"

                            justasmile, 02 Aug 2023I wouldn't, it's a gimmick, but for other normal ... moreI see, so you didn't understand that happened. Samsung did not think that Moto could go in such level to able any apps to play on the external display and they choose to limited to refresh rate at 60Hz because Samsung did not plan that. But Moto study well the Flip form and avoid the latest CPU by choosing last year CPU but put to effort and knowledge on the external screen with 144Hz and let it run any apps out of the box. After Moto released, Samsung understand the advantage the Razr 40 Ultra was having about running any apps out of the box and choose to able any apps on the external screen of the Flip 5 but the refresh rate was already to small. Even the internal screen could be at least 144Hz to value the Snapdragon 8 gen 2 on the Flip 5. The powerful CPU cost too much that they have to reduce other specs and that was the mistake it looks like a Ferrari engine on a Toyota. While Moto choose to specs wisely to create Flip phone and could not cost much but looks totally like a full high end phone and playful in the best Flip form fact.

                                Also, 120hz and 165hz are basically the same.

                                    Try reading theses comments on the external screen,

                                    The original Flip Phone had a smaller volume than the candybar phones of old.

                                    What embellishments / features added to the external screen are moot, nobody is going back to 3.6" screens no matter how many iPhones sell for $200,000

                                    If it involves reading on the external screen it means scrolling, you know what I am gonna protect the hinge and not open the phone.

                                    The question is not a question that needs addressing, size is important, it may have been easy to incorporate these features to attract the impressionable. For functionality and practicality purposes nearer zero than 10

Hope you guys understand the concept of a flip phone it is much better on the Razr 40 Ultra.
