Samsung’s foldable smartphones are going from strength to strength. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 is the third iteration of Samsung’s first foldable device. It’s also the most versatile yet. The company has made some serious improvements to the device’s durability and performance.

The company has also introduced new software experiences to enable Galaxy Z Fold 3 users to extract the maximum benefit from this unique form factor. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 also happens to be the first foldable smartphone with support for the S Pen.

Design

Retaining the familiar in-folding design, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 is made from Armor Aluminum. The company says this is its “toughest strongest aluminum frame” yet. This is also the first Samsung foldable that’s water resistant. The IPX8 certification means that the device can be submerged in up to 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes.

The IP rating doesn’t bring dust resistance, though. However, the hinge includes nylon bristles on the inside in order to sweep away dust from entering the critical components. The camera cutouts at the back have been redesigned to appear more consistent with Samsung’s other flagships.

Displays

Since its data showed that Galaxy Z Fold 2 users were using the cover display as much as they were using the internal display, Samsung made the 6.2-inch 2268×832 pixel resolution Infinity-O cover display 29% brighter compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 3.

The internal 7.6-inch 2208×1768 pixel resolution Dynamic AMOLED 2X foldable display has a new protection film that’s 80% stronger and the panel itself is 29% brighter compared to the predecessor. Both panels have a 120Hz refresh rate.

The internal panel is quite unique in that it’s the first foldable panel that Samsung has created with an Under Display Camera. It’s also the first with a foldable digitizer that enables the S Pen to be used with the Galaxy Z Fold 3.

Cameras

The camera setup includes a 12-megapixel f/1.8 primary sensor with Dual Pixel autofocus and optical image stabilization. There’s also a 12-megapixel f/2.2 ultra-wide camera as well as a 12-megapixel 2x f/2.4 telephoto camera.

Software
