Looking at the folded Galaxy Z Fold3 from the bottom, you can see that the hinge part is slightly thicker and there is a gap between the screen.In addition, due to the convenience of folding vertically, the thickness of the folded Galaxy Z Fold3 is generally for two smartphones, and it has a considerable size.The body weight of Galaxy Z Fold3 is 273g, about 1 of 164G iPhone 12.It is close to seven times.

Galaxy Z Fold3 is equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 in the SoC, RAM is 12GB, and the performance is quite excellent.Even if multiple windows were opened at once, the operation did not become heavy.Also, if the screen is opened and tablet mode, the multitasking system can place various apps on one screen and it is easy to use.It is also suitable for various uses, such as watching movies, playing games, and reading e -books.

The rear camera of Galaxy Z Fold3 is 12 megapixel F1.8.

The Verge has an IPX8 equivalent of IPX8 at the level of Galaxy Z Fold3, which is particularly notable, that does not flood inside even if it is continuously submerged.When Galaxy Z Fold3 was actually sinked in a vase or fountain with water, it worked without any problems.

Galaxy Z Fold3 supports Samsung's stylus S pen that can be input like a pen tablet.There is no lag in the S pen input, and there is almost no shift, so it is possible to sketch and draw pictures comfortably.However, if you use a genuine case of Samsung that can fix the S pen, the stability on the table will decrease and flutter, so it will be difficult to draw on the table.

The input with Samsung virtual keyboard can be operated without any problems with conventional swipe operations, but it is quite difficult, so if you use a virtual keyboard, it is better to open the screen and switch to tablet mode.I mentioned.

As a comprehensive overall, Galaxy Z Fold3 is easy to use and usable, close to a tablet, and says that Galaxy Z Fold is an excellent folding smartphone unless there is a technical progress with glass flexibility and battery capacity.increase.On the other hand, it is a large size to carry with one hand, and it is very expensive at $ 1799 (about 198,000 yen), although it is cheaper than the previous model $ 2,000 (about 220,000 yen).He pointed out that it is a bottleneck.On top of that, THE VERGE also evaluates that "Galaxy Z Fold3 may not be worthwhile enough to be difficult to hold with one hand or high price."

The Galaxy Z Fold3 itself supports 25W high -speed wired charging and 11W high -speed wireless charging, so you can charge the battery immediately.However, the charging stand or adapter that supports high -speed charging is not enclosed in the box, so if you want to perform high -speed charging, you need to purchase a separate stand or adapter.

"Techrader was the size of the Galaxy Z Fold3 screen, and it took reasonable to support S -pen, and the user was hoping for the previous two models."Galaxy Z Fold3 has a wider area that can be written than Galaxy Note, and is closed in half and puts it in a pocket, so it is evaluated as more convenient than conventional full -size tablets.However, Techrader is sold separately, and that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 itself has no mechanism to store stylus like Galaxy Note, and it is difficult to carry the S pen at the same time without a genuine case, so Techrader is Techrader.I mentioned.
