In August 2021, Samsung released its newest foldable phone, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G. This phone is said to bring improvements from the previous generation and is also the world's first innovation in foldable phones.
The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is a powerhouse for consumers who need cutting edge devices for productivity and immersive entertainment with advanced performance and multitasking.
Then what are the world's first innovations in the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G? Here are some of them.
Water Resistant & Strong Body
Galaxy Z Fold3 5G returns to its true identity as a waterproof phone. Therefore, the phone is IPX4 equipped for water resistance and is a first in the history of a foldable smartphone.
With this certification, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G can withstand submersion conditions of up to 1.5 meters in fresh water for up to 30 minutes. Not only that, the body of the Galaxy Z Fold is also equipped with the latest Aluminum Armor from Samsung, which is the strongest aluminum ever used for a smartphone.
Under Display Camera
The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is also the world's first foldable smartphone to implement an under-display camera. This can happen thanks to the technology carried by Samsung, dubbed the Under Display Camera. With this screen, users can get a wider viewing area.
This screen also has a brightness level of 29% higher than the Galaxy Z Fold2, which uses Eco technology. The screen is also provided with Corning® Gorilla® Glass VictusTM for the strongest protection against scratches and unexpected drops.
Samsung has also equipped the device with a new stretchable PET5 protective film and an optimized main screen panel, creating a screen that is 80% more durable than its predecessor.
The screen of this device uses a 2X Dynamic AMOLED panel with a refresh rate that has also increased from the previous generation, which is 120 Hz. With a screen like this, multitasking activities will be easier and more comfortable.
On the screen, Samsung gives the latest touch by carrying the main screen Infinity Flex Display measuring 7.6 inches with a resolution of 2208 x 1768 pixels.
S Pen
The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is supported by the use of the S Pen which is usually found on the Galaxy Note line. With this feature, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G can increase user productivity.
There are many things that users can rely on thanks to this S Pen, including writing notes while making video calls to checking to-do lists while reading emails.
Samsung has also added the presence of the S Pen to text feature that allows users to perfect writing just by doing simple movements when they have to take notes very quickly.
The S Pen for the Z Fold3 comes in two variants, namely the S Pen Fold Edition and the S Pen Pro. Both have been equipped with a softer Pro tip and force limit technology to protect the screen from excessive pressure and very low latency.
Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is equipped with five cameras placed in 3 different positions. On the front cover, there is a 10 camera and inside there is a 4 MP camera placed under the screen.
On the back there are three cameras with a 12 MP Wide camera with f/1.8 aperture, a 12 MP Ultra Wide camera with f/2.2 aperture, and a 12 MP Tele camera that can take photos with 2x optical zoom.
