Galaxy Z Fold3 video hands-on. The degree of perfection that foreshadows the mainstreaming of foldables (US version)

Here's a hands-on video of the Galaxy Z Fold3, the latest folding screen smartphone announced by Samsung.

Galaxy Z Fold3 is the third generation of the series that continues from Samsung's first foldable (folding screen) smartphone Galaxy Fold.

The main feature is that the durability of the flexible main screen has been improved by 80% compared to the previous model, making it compatible with handwriting using the Wacom digitizer stylus S Pen.

In addition, we have introduced the latest technology while overcoming the weaknesses of the previous model, such as the first waterproof specification for foldable, Samsung's first under-display camera, and a slightly thinner and lighter screen size.

Ms. Cherlynn of the original US version of Engadget was in charge of the video hands-on. Some of the contents are listed in bullet points, such as how the dedicated S pen is different from the conventional notebook, and how the under-display camera is actually. I added supplements as appropriate, but please refer to the announcement article for detailed product specifications.

Summary

The third generation has learned from the past and has a very sophisticated impression as far as I tried it. Plus, it's $200 less than the $2,000 Fold2.

Although still too expensive for the average consumer, it's only with the third generation that we can imagine a future where foldables are mainstream accepted.
