I have had my Galaxy Z Fold3 for seven months now and it has been an awesome experience. For me personally, it is going to be really difficult switching back to a traditional smartphone. Having a device that can be both a phone and a tablet is useful. Since I am visually impaired, having the extra screen real-estate makes this phone a lot more enjoyable.

I got the Fold 3 when it came out last summer and 8 months later I'm still in love with it as if I just got it yesterday. The S22 Ultra is indeed an amazing phone but my experience on the Fold has been extraordinary and I can't see myself ever wanting to go back to a traditional slab phone

Here's my thoughts as a fold 3 user. I manage a team of people and logistics. I take notes, make lists, look at spreadsheets, etc. The fold 3 is perfect for me and the "tool" I've been looking for. When it comes to leisure like playing games watching movies and things like that, I don't do to much of that just music and podcasts so I'm usually getting off work/coming home and putting my phone to charge with >50%. What I'm really getting at is if you use your phone as almost a binder for your work or personal life, like a resource more than an entertainment source, the fold 3 will defiantly come in hand often.

The fold 3 has been amazing. Using Teams and office 365 for work, utilizing the unfolded screen feature for maps/menus/on the fly research, best baby sitting tool for my toddler, and consuming entertainment. This device is a Swiss army knife. Surprisingly, I don't use the camera as much. The Inner screen camera does need help. I have no issues with rear camera. Looking forward to what the fold 4 will offer us next.

My concerns are more to do with durability and battery life. I'm an avid user. The multi-tasking ability this phone has and the ability to use the smaller screen instead of the full estate of the screen seems almost perfect. As long as the phone can be design to be perfectly utilized whether full open or close, I'm still interested.

I have uses the z fold for 5 months , but now gone to s22 ultra , reasons poor battery , heavy phone , and home front screen difficult to text message etc to small, and no s pen holder , I did love the open full screen , look forward to z 4 ,at this stage love s22

Well said. Your exactly right. I owned them both. I'm currently using the s 22 ultra. Traded in my fold. Perfect the fold when the foldable phone when its more durable.

it's a matter of personal preference. i chose the Z fold 3 , im an ER physician, use the hospital management system to look for labs, imaging, write consultations etc.. bcz that's what i need in my life. so a i said it depends on the use factor.

Your comparative views certainly puts things into perspective. I consider myself as a late adopter, with the view of upgrading from my Samsung M31 (6000mAh battery beast!) to either the older Z Fold 3 or the latest and greatest S22 Ultra. I recall years ago when I got the Note 1, I was laughed at by people saying I got a plate-size phone. Now, everyone I know sports a minimum 6inch phone. A larger screen is such a need nowadays for media consumption. My 2 main criterias are Bigger Battery and Bigger Screen, and such I split across the 2 Flagships. Doesn't help that my local carrier has run out of the Phantom Silver Z Fold 3 and the Phantom White S22 Ultra. So now, I am using the waiting time to seek as much justifications and proof I can to support my decision making. Videos such as yours here are a godsend as it discusses the merits and weaknesses of each device.

Has puesto subtitulos en español para el video, eso te da una mayor cobertura para más público de todo el mundo. Gracias a ese extra que pocos youtubers se molestan en hacer, me quedo a ver el video a pesar del idioma y me suscribo al canal.

Great video! You're definitely getting the subscription. Now, I love the ZF3! I can only see me trading in my fold 3 for the Fold 4. I don't know if I could go back to another candy bar slab phone. Samsung has spoiled me.

I've been comparing these two and trying to decide. Thanks, very useful comparison. 👍

I've literally just bought the s22u and traded in my Zf3. I was such a difficult decision because the Zf3 is a great device with a gorgeous display but ultimately, concerns about the durability of the inner display, the camera and the battery made my mind up. Its also a little annoying having to open it to get to that gorgeous display rather than just lift it out your pocket. I think foldables will be mainstream very soon but I think we're maybe a few generations away. I still really love the Zf3 but it maybe just falls short of the s22u but dang, it's not an easy choice.

Very nice presentation and articulation and explanation of features I definitely will be subscribing to you and following you for further tech info I appreciate it I for one have my eye and heart out for the ultra 22 then I'm hoping to get very very soon but this is really good thank you again and I'll see you next time 🙏💚💚💚✊

Can you please share the link or the name of the wallpaper you have used. Thank you.

Great video as usual, I was struggle with this question when they just launched s22u, in the end, I went to a retail store, open OneNote and UKposts side by side, everything cleared. Absolutely stay with fold 3. Really hope they can make a build in Spen or Slim Spen like the surface slim pen

Great review. Thanks. Also, how do I split the screen on the ultra. 🙂

Great video, were can i downloads those wallpapers?

Great video as always.Keep up the great work. I enjoyed your video because I have the z Fold 3 but considering the S22Ultra. Hard to make up your mind. On one hand I'm using the zFold 3 close more than open, but when I open it, "wow". And on the other hand the S22Ultra is less bulkier with a great screen with a S-PEN and great looking. Hard desition. Meanwhile thank you for continuing puting out great videos.

Excellent, spot-on review and I completely agree with your take on these two devices. At the end of the day, the Fold 3 wasn't for me. I enjoyed it while I had it and as a tech piece, it's amazing. I found myself using it 90% of the time in the closed mode and really missed the slab size (came from a Note 10+ which still is one of my favorite phones of all time). I don't game so the extra screen real estate wasn't a huge factor. I was also disappointed at times with the cameras and ultimately (ha, no pun intended) I went back to the slab and am rocking the S22 Ultra. I absolutely love it and honestly can't say that I miss the Fold. Still, either one of these devices would be an amazing choice - it comes down to day to day use needs.

Think I'll stick to the fold 3, I have small crack down the seam but I like the productivity of having a foldable in my pocket. I also like how it folds out large enough to read my Kindle comics on it so it doubles as a "kindle colour" for me. If the next generation has an internal storing s-pen, a better folding screen, front s-pen supporting screen (even after 10+ months I keep forgetting the pen doesn't work with the front screen grrrrr.....), and a updated processor/gpu then that would be enough for me to upgrade and I normally upgrade every 2 years. Dumb question, how do you do that multi-screen setup shown in this video? This might be handy when logging into something along with my password store and 2FA sitting side by side.

I'm struggling now to make the decision of going back to a regular phone. I've had the Fold 2 and traded up to Fold 3. I love the Fold but the shiny screen & weight of the phone is getting to me. Samsung doesn't make it easy either with the enticing offers they have for me to trade in my fold for an ultra. I'm still contemplating keeping the fold cause I have a lot of zoom/teams meetings for work and the screen real estate comes in handy.

Your videos are like some sort of a premium digital dessert to me. You can't imagine the excitement every time I see them on the main page. 🤩

I've had my fold 3 since launch, and the inner screen cracked. As much as I love the fold 3, it's just more practical for me to trade for an S22 ultra.

Thank you for this video, I've had the zfold 3 since August, I've enjoyed it but lately it's been a pain in the butt lol talking to Samsung today and see if I can trade it in and get the S22 ultra. I'm a specs type of guy so S22 ultra would be better for me.

in the UK the phone came with the free fold pen and case you can claim it upon purchase, I personally use the spen pro as I use my phone a lot for work and surveys and it's fantastic.

Very genuinely put by this man. First time on the channel and it has make my time worth here. Definitely subscribing it! Cheers!

The multitasking on my fold 3 is just too good to let go.

I own both and I can say the s22 is king for me personally. Mostly because I do content creating and the cameras are very different in terms of quality and being able to edit raw images is pretty sick. Great review.

May I ask what wallpaper is on the phones?

Great comparison! First time I'm seeing one of your videos. I'll subscribe right away so I don't miss any of your new videos and to not forget to watch some other ones that I haven't seen yet at a later time

Thank you. My fold3 inner screen is shot. Just ordered the s22u. Great reviews. I will def miss the big screen but brighter denser more durable screen will be appreciated. Nice to see benchmarks and battery comparisons. Samsung gives 220 bucks when trading cracked fold 3 for refurbed s22u making it about 400 for the base model after other discounts.

Appreciate this detailed review! I switched to an iPhone after being in Android for nearly a decade and GAHHHH I just want Android again. I was a Note user prior.

The update: I tried the S22 Ultra, a great phone! I'm the person that switches between IOS and Android twice a year and when I had my Zfold3 I was content and cocky and I made the two ecosystems work as an Apple Mac user. Having the S22 Ultra made me think about switching, other than the Xiaomi, I just got bored very quickly, the specs are amazing but I just missed the fold three. I wish the front screen was wider, the camera was better, I have s pen pro, and a small integrated pen would be welcomed but not a necessity. Again thank you for the good comparison but, I switched back to the fold3 and will be selling my S22 ULTRA Haha

Almost got the Fold....got the Ultra instead and couldn't not be happier. Heard some horror stories about the fold and that's what really swayed me to the Ultra.

My Z fold 3 is the best had since launch it's been a beast very durable only thing wears out is the inter screen protector easy replace after 6 months with whitestone only now 17.00 was 59.00 on Amazon. The best was so far is the Z fold 3 biggest screen for playing games video. Well the Fold also is using Diamond pixels new technology.

Honestly love that the phone goes from a smaller screen to bigger. I have the s22ultra and there are times I wish I could just make the screen smaller for my small hands or to hold my phone. You get the best of both with this phone

Cool wallpapers, where'd you get them

I've had my fold3 since launch and considered the s22 ultra, but I just really like my fold. I love buying new phones so that's saying alot. I'm even thinking about trading my P6P in for the flip 3 again. I know they're not perfect but it's an awesome phone. Looking forward to the 4. Also thanks for continuing to cover the fold ❤️. Most reviewers have moved on.

We should go from diagonal inch to cm^2. with aspect ratio diference like fold vs S ultra, it tells more! fold 180cm^2 vs S 115cm^2. It is 156%!!!

Was waiting for this video for months 😍😍😍. Sagi you just nailed it. When memberships come, I am going to be member if you continue honest videos like this. But also I want a comparison with iPhone 13 pro max and S22 Ultra

I love your wallpapers!! Where can i get this?

Which application for wallpapers ?

Nice review..thank you 🎉

heard zf4 is going to be thinner and lighter, so it would appeal more customers I guess. My selling point would be weather they have a dedicated pen slot or not tho.

Trying to get a Z Fold 2 at the moment, so I can do my deliveries and what not. Change it into tablet mode for maps, and then close it to use the camera to deliver an order.

Where can I get the wallpapers in the video ?

Where do you get your wallpapers from?

Where can I find the wallpapers on your devices on the thumbnail please

I traded in my Fold 3 for an Ultra. The fold is cumbersome, thick, and not comfortable to carry around, 2. I did not like the feeling of constantly worrying when the internal screen would give out. 3. The external screen is too narrow and unusable on a normal case use.

After 2 of my z folds developed the same fault, the right side of the screen stopped responding I switched to the ultra. I did love the fold but there is definitely issues with the durability. I met two other people who had similar issues. For me it's still not there as an everyday phone.

owned fold 1 2 and now 3 don't think I could go back to a normal/boring looking phone anymore absolutely love my fold 3 for content/gaming and how it feels being held in 2 hands, looking forwards to the fold 4.

Can you please share the links of that wallpapers

Link for wallpapers on thumbnail?

I enjoyed this video. It was clear, concise and to the point. The host was not annoying and didn't try to be funny and there was no stupud back ground music. Well done!

Links to wallpaper?

For me, changing from using my phone to my tablet comes with a mindset change, so I like keeping the devices seperate. I would go for the s22 for that reason currently

I already had issues with the Fold 2 and Fold 3. Had to send them both to repair after approx 4-6 months of use. They are still not reliable. Better stick to traditional slab phones till few more generations of foldables come out. The great advantage of Fold 3 is the screen real estate that really enables notes BUT the S pen case and implementation makes the phone much bulkier. Lastly, the Fold 3 is nearly incapable for car mounts especially if you have an S Pen case on unless you can find a very specialised mount.

I had a very hard choice choosing between the two, but I ended up getting the Fold 3 for that huge screen and that "wow" factor. After using it for a few weeks, I can't imaging going back to a smaller screen

Love the video. Where did you buy the Samsung Fold 3 case with pen holder? Please give a link Thank you!

Superb review, thank you.

Great video! Where did you get your wallpaper?

I was a die hard Note fan. Still am. But, now that I've had my Fold 3 for 6 months, I cant imagine going back to a normal phone. Yes, there are a few things Samsung could do to make it perfect. Such as better cameras, better inner screen protector & wider front screen. But, over all it's an Amazing phone! I am no longer a "Afraid" to use a folding phone. Its not going to break from folding & its a far cry from my old Sanyo Inuendo.

It's the review I have been waiting for!! 😊😊 Ultra it is then. I will come back to the FOLD3 once the new Fold4 is released. Let's hope they increase the front screen width! **SPELLING CORRECTED**

Thanks for this review, quite detailed and intricate comparison.

How can you even compare? The fold has an almost 2-times bigger screen, and in these sizes (as opposed to e.g. 50" vs. 100") - the size does matter, a hell of a lot. Who the hell cares about a little (!) shorter battery life or a tiny bit less-amazing display or camera when you get a mini-tablet that fits in your pocket in return for these compromises? The only problem is the outrageous (and, to most people, unaffordable) price - but that goes for both these phones.

Had a Z Fold in December 2021 and returned it in January 2022. The camera and poor battery are deal breakers. I've had an s22 Ultra for a few weeks now and wouldn't go back. My 22 Ultra lasts all day partly because the battery is bigger but also because I have a 45w charger. I leave it charging for just a few minutes here and there throughout the day and routinely end my day with 60%+ battery. The s22 charges so damn fast even in my car. I love that I can leave my phone next to me all night and then go plug it in while I shower and make breakfast in the morning and its back to 100% in no time. But the Z fold display is so epic its almost makes it a tough decision. Once they upgrade the cameras and battery it may be a contender for the best 👌🏼.

For someone who hasn't used a Samsung device since the S4 (long term One Plus user at the moment) I would have to say if given a choice, purely for business productivity, I would gladly choose the Fold 4 (eagerly awaiting it's release hopefully in August/September) Might grab one, especially since it's gonna have that productivity s-pen slot built right in + with an improved camera! The S22 Ultra is a great device, but where i'm at at the moment, Exynos is the only option which is a rip off. Rather wait & take the plunge with the Fold 4. (Buy it nice or buy it twice, shades of TGT)

For me Z Fold 3 is a prototype of something which in the future will be the phone I will go for. For now I decided to buy S22 Ultra and I love it. But having a bigger screen would be a great thing. I would like to see built-in S-Pen (a bulky cover with S-Pen slot does NOT do the trick), slightly different screen ratio (briefly speaking, when folded I would like the Z Fold phone to have similar screen ratio to the slab phones and this would also nicely changed the screen proportions when unfolded - would make it more like for a tablet) and a better camera system (does not have to have UDC but a camera system that is comparable to S22 Ultra would be a nice thing). I am hoping that the Z Fold 5 will have all these improvements. Until then I'll stick with S22 Ultra....

I have that ultimate decision to make now. I've had the fold 3 about 5 weeks and traded for the s22 ultra. The ultra is here and I'm deciding which one to keep. I do a lot of traveling on my motorcycle and I'm not sure how the fold will hold up mounted to my handlebars exposed to dust, temp changes, vibrations etc.

I upgraded to s22 ultra from note 10 plus 3 years old. I think it worth to upgrade. And the only reason I stay with Samsung after 3 years with note 10 plus is s22 ultra using snapdragon gen 1. The 1st phone they bring snapdragon gen 1 to Vietnam. If they back to exynos, no matter what they promise that Exy is better, I will switch to other phone brand to use better snapdragon chipset.

Got the fold a couple weeks ago, while it is a really nice phone and love the bigger display. Numerous apps I use aren't optimized for it, battery life is pretty bad (most days it can't make it through a full day of light to moderate use) and there's concerns about the durability of the inner display. Considering returning it for the s22u

Wallpaper from?

Another great video brother!

I have the Galaxy 20 Ultra, but gonna wait for the Fold 4 with the integrated S-pen and see what that else that has to offer.

I loved my fold 3 until one day I opened it up to see a huge black line down the hinge. I am still clueless as to how it happened. In all my years using a smart phone I have never had screen damage as I use the most protective cases and don't drop my phone often. I did not want to chance it again so recently traded for a S22 Ultra which feels just like a Note. I still love the idea of foldable phones with huge inner displays but durability is still a major issue. I will wait for Samsung to figure it out and try again in a few years.

Since I got my Z fold 3 6 months ago I've never looked for any other smartphone. Had S10+ before and 13pro afterwards (which drove me crazy with its OS) and then switching to this brick. The extra screen size does matters. I had some afterthoughts about the battery but for me it does the day without an issue. And if you spend 6h+ on your phone daily, then you're cleary addicted and should seek for help :D

Had every note since note 1 premiere in 2011. I was not happy when they skip note after 20 series. After announcement that fold 3 is waterproof and have s-pen support i instant go for it. It's like they want to do it anyway . I remember to this day commercial phone? tablet? Feel free It's galaxy note. And now s series have build in s-pen. I hope fold if not 4 maybe 5 will have build in s-pen and become ultimate note device for power users like me. Also it has snapdragon instead of exynos so even newer device like s22 with exynos is like same performance to snapdragon fold3

The smaller, sharper edges and the Spen fall as something with better productivity than the Z Fold 3's large screen.

I am confused between the fold 3 and the s22 ultra I want the fold 3 but I am worried because a lot of owners are complaining about the screen protector damaging the screen what should I do

Sir which best buy

Excellent video and the dogs are gorgeous 😍

how good do you think is s22 ultra is good for pdf reading in horizontal mode

I have an S21Ultra and I am eligible to upgrade to either device. I chose to not do it for the sake of the very difficult choices. While I want compactness which I'll get from the fold, I also just don't want to sacrifice performance which I'll get with the s22 Ultra. The camera specs aren't great for the fold 3, but the s22 ultra is big, bulky, and uncomfortable to hold sometimes. The fold is like 1500-1800 dollars which I feel just isn't ideal to purchase when the device is far from perfected and the s22 Ultra is hundreds cheaper. It's all about what you are looking for honestly. I decided to not go with either because they are both extremely great devices that will be relevant for years to come, but neither were enough for me to go for it. Amazing devices, but there's too many pros and cons and the two do not compromise.

How I can download wallpapers like yours ?

Hi I am using note 20 ultra now.I am confused should I buy s22 ultra or fold 3 as my 2nd phone ?

First and foremost, thank you for your interesting comparison on these 2 Premium phones. . . I personally don't think you can really compare the 2 devices up against each other as one being better than the other. My reason is simple, it comes down to Form & Function. I also don't necessarily agree with your slandering of the Fold 3 as it honestly made me think you were comparing the S22 to a galaxy S7... Again in my opinion the Fold 3 is way ahead of the S22 Ultra in most aspects (unless you a professional photographer, but even then you would be using a DSLR or something similar anyway) and be it new Premium Phone with fresh marketing, what with a newer camera & chip and and and... found on the S22 Ultra (most of which is alot of sales jargon anyway whenever any new flashy Premium Phone hits the market) What annoys me most is when these tech giants launch any new phone the way they compare it to their previous model and actually try fool us into thinking WoW my phone feels old now... Well they not fooling me and anyone who's on the same page as me on this will agree... I bet if Samsung and Google never stopped support for our "older" arcaic devices that they would be more than sufficient for our everyday chenanigans, older chip and all... At the end of the day nobody in their right mind is going to do whatever it is they do on their S22 Ultra and say "WoW this is so much faster then my old Fold 3" or be it even older devices that are still receiving security and software updates. Thank you for reading ...

Waiting on s22 ultra to send my z fold 3. I got bored of it and i hate the battery on it. Amazing phone but battery ruins the experience if you are a heavy user

Just make the fold more wider but shorter a bit for Balance (i know samsung designer know that if normal person know it but they didn't say why the go with strange aspect ratio?

Im a note user, and also a fold 3 user..so no.. Theyre not phones for different people...theyre just phones

Where did you get that wallpaper?

A premium phone with a still present crease on the screen. Seems this fault is now standard rather than getting rid of it as models progress. Fact being it requires a spring loaded stylus nib says it all for durability.

I am having a crisis on which to purchase right now. I have the means to get both without much cost to me new. Below is where I am: - I do not care about the pen other than the single feature of S22Ultra where you can write on the screen without unlocking to make quick notes for work. - I rarely use my camera. Even if I were, I just need it to be good enough. - I have multitask needs in running D&D but not to the extent of needing the fold necessarily. - I want to game.....some. (Some mobile games and some gamepass); Not heavily but at least 20 percent of the time. - I am worried about the crease being noticeable and the inner screen feeling cheap/plasticy. I have never seen one in person. - I want to possibly use it to read comics/books. This would be low use though, >10% of the time. - Main use for a phone is UKposts (listening mostly), discord, texting, calling, and researching info on games and other topics. (so standard use with slight extra.) - I would be open to using my phone for more purposes of video watching, but I typically only watch things while eating. Unless I am at work, this means I almost never use my phone unless throwing to a tv. Maybe I would be feel different with the large screen, or the super bright 22ultra screen. - I hate black bars on screens, but realize that both phones will have them and I am really choosing which side. (I run ultrawide on PC and have come to terms with this there as well.) - I hate the idea of the curved edges on the sides of the s22ultra and all phones like them. I love the box shape though. - I like that the Fold comes with screen protectors out of the box. - S22Ultra looks extremely cool despite my hiccups, the idea of a simple super phone sounds just as good, though I dread the screen protector being applied. - I am worried of Z fold case options. I dont mind the thickness, but any more and it would be a bit much. - Android (imo) is about self-optimization regarding battery life so neither's battery life means anything to me. - Whichever I pick will be the one I use for the long-term. (3-6 years pending trying to lean later than closer; I have had the same phone since 2019 and only because the previous one broke. I run Note 9 currently of which I do not use the pen and hate some of the mentioned above.) The above is all I can think of. Any help would be appreciated based off other users.

Great devices, but it is much better to get an IPad mini or similar and the S22 Ultra. I'm currently using the Mini plus a Note 20 Ultra. Aside from that, battery drain is a huge issue. Not to mention that the display in the Fold is much less resilient than the Ultra.

Please send the link of S22 ultra wallpaper

Anyone know where he gets the wallpapers from ???

wallpaper?

Seems to me you simply like the newer tech above the functional excellence of the larger screen. In everyday use, the larger screen makes perfect sense and at less than a 2 ounce difference, the weight shouldn't be an issue at all. There is no question which is the technologically more advanced (and newer), but how much real world difference shows up there? If you want a regular slab phone, the ultra wins hands down. BUT, if you want the screen acreage, nothing beats the fold.

i got the fold 3 and its absolutely perfect, i dropped it once before and honestly it basically has 0 damage other than the hinge has a bit of cosmetic damage, no issues with closing/opening or anything honestly unless samsung figures out the under display camera to be even better i doubt ill be going back to regular phones edit: i got the fold 3 at release, you can find it refurbished for pretty cheap and if you dont go out very often like me then its the perfect around the house phone.

Samsung has a mother's day special where they are giving 1k for the Z Fold 3 AND a free memory upgrade. I had been debating the switch on S22 launch but glad I held off as this is a better offer. I love my fold but im sick of the crease which has gotten deeper and more noticeable the longer ive had the phone. Dropped it once and it got 2 dead pixels. The selfie camera is actually atrocious and battery life isnt great. Also, finding a decent case for this phone is like looking for the lost city of Atlantis. No good way to store the S-Pen and most apps are still not optimized for this aspect ratio so everything looks weird. Front screen is practically unusable because of how slim it is and while I love how it feels in hand it's really hard to type especially with a case on. Writing this made me realize there's a lot more about the Fold I didnt like than I realized and I'm glad I pulled the trigger on the S22 Ultra.
