Look, I love my Motorola Edge Plus 2023. It's a great phone. Really. And it costs around 2/3 or less than this phone. I considered their foldable phone to save some money. Truth be told, they look identical and both this Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 and the Motorola Razr+ 2023 are extremely similar but we have pros and cons with each.
When shopping, I found the Razer+ charged faster and has larger screens. However, it lacks the performance the Z Flip5 has due to the Z Flip5 having a newer generation processor. It's not like Motorola didn't have access to the same processor, they did, but to save our pockets, they opted for a generation behind. Not a deal breaker, but when you catch, like I did, the Z Flip on sale, well, that cost difference becomes less of an issue.
Both phone are about as scratch resistant as you can get. That is my way of saying the first thing I'd do with any phone is put a case on it and put quality screen protectors. So neither phone wind here .
The fact I have three really nice WearOS Samsung watches essentially made the decision for me. It's sad Samsung disables ECG if you're not using a Samsung phone. A plus for Samsung is I can now transfer my watch to a new phone or transfer it back to the same phone if I reset the phone. This prevents having to reset and clear the watches. Another thing Samsung has done is these phones will desltect you've switched watches and syncs all the health data, alarms, and other items you've set on the watch. That option is omitted with any other phone.
I love this phone. I like the nice squared sides and flat screen. It took me a little bit to get used to the small divet where the screen folds, but now I barely notice it.
Would I recommend this phone at MSRP? No. If it hasn't gone on sale and saved me over $300, I'd be writing a review on the Motorola Razr.
If the Z Fold is too large for you, this is a perfect compromise. Folded, it's half the size of my Motorola Edge+ and thinner!
The battery life is really all day. That's seems to be rare these days outside of extremely large and expensive flagship phones. This phone feels sturdy, so I don't feel like I'm going to break it opening and closing it but a good case is a must. Bare, this phone is slick and I don't mean just in looks!
I really couldn't be happier. It's fast so gaming is nice and smooth, the refresh rate and color quality allows movies to really look great, and surprisingly, this small phone has pretty loud speakers for their size.
The only "problem" I have it I get interrupted when I take a call and people see me unfold it.
I really am comfortable that the screen will last, and if it doesn't, I have the Amazon insurance. My really large gripe here is with Samsung directly. I tried to sign up for their replacement warranty the moment the phone was set up and they require all these diagnostic reports and video proof of virtually every angle while the phone is on running the diagnostics. Ummm, not everyone has the means to do this and why should I have to since I just purchased the phone and Amazon is an authorized dealer!
I'd definitely would buy it again if I needed to. I don't think you'd be disappointed

Switched from Apple to Samsung, I’m loving it
Had the phone for a week, i struggled a bit with the transition but absolutely adore this phone. My first ever phone was a flip phoneas a preteen and now i get to actually experience a flip with modern day features. The phone takes a bit to get used to with all the extra steps, pairing my Bluetooths and going from strictly having apple for years to now a Samsung.Some cool features i like is being able to fold the phone closed to end calls, when folded it fits in my little purse/my pocket, being able to give contacts there own title and widgets/themes that directly go to the app its assigned to 😁😁😁APPLE JUST LOST A CUSTOMER, I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK. If your thinking of switching i say go for it, you will absolutely love the changes ☺️💕💕💕
