Samsung opened the next chapter in foldable innovation with two new smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G and Galaxy Z Flip3 5G at the Samsung Unpacked Event 2021 yesterday.
Both devices are premium foldable smartphones built with the craftsmanship and flagship innovations Samsung users have come to love and expect. The third generation of these category-defining devices incorporates key improvements that Samsung foldable users have asked for—making them more durable with more optimized foldable experiences than ever before. From iconic design to immersive entertainment, Z Flip3 and Z Fold3 offer users unique new ways to work, watch, and play.
Galaxy Z Fold3 5G
Immerse yourself in theatre-like viewing experiences on the uninterrupted 7.6-inch Infinity Flex Display—thanks to Samsung’s new Under display camera technology. With minimum pixels applied on top of the camera hole, Z Fold3 features an increased viewable area so users get an unbroken canvas for their favourite apps. It offers smoother scrolling and quick device interaction with the Super Smooth 120Hz adaptive refresh rate now on both the Main and Cover Screens. And, for the first time ever on the Galaxy Z series, Samsung is bringing its beloved Note series technology to Z Fold3—the S Pen functionality. Users can take advantage of fully optimised S Pen (comes in two options: S Pen Fold Edition and S Pen Pro 12 ) features on their foldable screen, which is a perfect fit for on-the-go multitaskers.
With plenty of features to entice the tech geek in you, the Z Fold3 is built with a sleeker, thinner, and lighter design for even better portability than Galaxy Z Fold2. It comes with a choice of three timeless colours: Phantom Black, Phantom Green, and Phantom Silver.
Galaxy Z Flip3 5G
With the choice of four trendy colours—Cream, Green, Lavender, and Phantom Black—plus new stylish ring grips and strap cases 15 that make it even easier to hold and fold the phone, Z Flip3 is the ideal balance of style, function, and nonstop fun. The redesigned Cover Screen is now four times larger 17 and makes it easier to view notifications and messages without having to open Z Flip3. Users can keep up with their schedule, check the weather, and monitor their daily step count with new Cover Screen widgets or coordinate the Cover Screen wallpaper with their new Galaxy Watch4 or Galaxy Watch4 Classic for a matching look. Z Flip3 is also crafted to give users the best capability for capturing and sharing memories. Packed with some of the latest camera features, users can take even more stunning selfies hands-free with Flex mode. Or they can keep the device folded and capture a quick photo—and now, even video—right from the Cover Screen using enhanced Quick Shot by double-clicking Z Flip3’s power key. Plus, scrolling and sharing are super smooth, thanks to Z Flip3’s new 120Hz adaptive refresh rate 18 .
Galaxy Buds2
As one of the latest additions to the Galaxy Buds lineup, Galaxy Buds2 join the Galaxy Buds Live and Galaxy Buds Pro, providing more choices to consumers to fit their needs. As a part of the Galaxy ecosystem, Galaxy Buds2 make the perfect companion to your Galaxy smartphone, tablet, or smartwatch. The dynamic two-way speakers deliver crisp, clear high notes and a deep bass, while Active Noise Cancellation helps block out unwanted noise. If you need to hear your surroundings, simply tune back in with three adjustable ambient sound levels 21 . And now your voice will be clearer on calls, thanks to a new, machine learning-based solution that filters out a variety of distracting background noises. Galaxy Buds2 are Samsung’s smallest and lightest earbuds yet boasting an iconic curved shape.
