Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 512GB Black SM-F926BZKGXNZ review
On the surface, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 doesn't have many big upgrades. Instead, it is made up of a ton of smaller upgrades. Which makes the Galaxy Z Fold 3 a really impressive smartphone.- Cheaper than its predecessor, IPX8 rated for Water Resistance, Slightly lighter than Fold 2, Both displays are 120Hz now, Multi-tasking has improved, More apps optimized for foldables now
- Lacking rear cameras, Pretty awful under-display camera for Zoom calls, Battery life is slightly worse than last year, Awkward aspect ratio displays make multi-tasking less impressive
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 512GB Black SM-F926BZKGXNZ review
Although it's not massively different to its predecessor, Samsung continues to deliver the most complete foldable experience on the market. Any such device inevitably comes with its share of issues - here there's screen reflections, a central crease, and the under panel camera (UPC) isn't entirely...- Big screen makes for most impressive looking foldable on the market, Plenty of power and sturdy software experience, Battery life isn't too sad, S Pen stylus compatible
- Largely similar to predecessor, Screen coating unavoidably reflective and ongoing 'crease' issue, Under panel camera (UPC) can be very noticeable, S Pen not included, Pricey

“After three generations of improvements, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 has better durability, software support, and productivity capabilities.”

The Galaxy Note might be a no-show, but the revamped Z Fold 3 5G is more than worthy of taking its place- New durable design, Substantial UI improvements, Likeable (and unique) form factor
- Still expensive, Inner screen feels quite delicate, Cameras aren’t anything special
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 512GB Black SM-F926BZKGXNZ review
The Galaxy Z Fold 3 looks like the best foldable phone yet, with a more durable design and S Pen support, and the multitasking features are even better. You need a case to store the stylus and the cameras are not upgraded, but overall the Galaxy Z Fold 3 looks very promising for power users.- More durable, water resistant design, Dual 120Hz displays, S Pen support, Improved multitasking features, More optimized foldable apps
- Still pricey, Camera hardware not upgraded, No S Pen or charger included, Bulky when closed, Battery life could be better
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 512GB Black SM-F926BZKGXNZ review
Too expensive to recommend to almost everyone we know, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 is still good enough to convert many foldable sceptics- Surprisingly easy to handle, Tough hinge, Ultra-bright inner screen
- Cameras are mid-tier Samsung performers, Still costs an absolute fortune
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G (512GB, Phantom Black) AU - Pristine review
When I initially sat down to try and put my thoughts together for this review, I was going to take the “traditional” approach. But since the Galaxy Z Fold 3 has already been available a few weeks, that’s kind of the boring approach.- Slimmer and lighter than the Z Fold 2, Having a foldable phone is still an incredible feeling, S Pen support was a necessary and welcome addition, Phantom Black is the best color on a smartphone
- Battery life is still horrible., Cameras are good but not great, The crease is annoying when using the S Pen
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G (512GB, Silver) - Excellent review
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 is a solid step forward for Samsung’s flagship foldable line, offering a more durable design, solid component upgrades and improved multi-tasking. But the screens’ atypical aspect ratios still come with some usability compromises.- Much tougher than past versions, Powerful performance, Bright, punch main screen that’s great for gaming, You’re a power user that likes to have THE latest gadgets: The Galaxy Z Fold 3 is the first foldable I’ve used that doesn’t feel like a prototype thanks to general improvements to its software...
- Apps still don’t always display correctly, You want the best phone or tablet experience possible: Despite excellent work by Samsung improving the Fold 3, the screens’ atypical aspect ratios still hinder the overall user experience.

If you’re sold on the perks of the foldable concept, though, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 is its best proponent yet.- Uniquely expansive main display, Plenty of power, Refined, more robust foldable design
- Cameras aren’t competitive with the very best, Still very expensive, No S Pen bundled in
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 512GB Black SM-F926BZKGXNZ review
The future makes skeptics of us all, and folding phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 still face an uphill battle. While the third generation of the range-topping foldable costs less than its predecessor, at $1,800 it’s still a laptop-priced commitment to a form factor that remains controversial.- Foldable design feels like the future of phones, One UI 3 makes apps usable on an Android tablet, Cheaper than previous Fold models, Waterproofing adds reassurance
- Still incredibly expensive for a phone, Cameras are good, but not stand-out, Under-display camera is distracting, S Pen sold separately and there's nowhere to store it
