Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3

In the Bespoke Studio you can choose the colors of the panels of the Flip 3. You can choose between 5 colors; blue, yellow, pink, white and black. For the hinge you can choose between black and silver. In total there are 49 different color combinations possible.

The personalized Flip 3 Bespoke Edition is only available through samsung.com and is custom made. The colored panels can be swapped for other ones afterwards. The Z Flip 3 Bespoke Edition will be available from October 20th for a retail price of $1099 in a select group of countries including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, South Korea, the United Kingdom and the United States. It comes with 1 year free Samsung Care+ which protects you from accidental damage.

Galaxy Watch 4 Bespoke Studio

The Galaxy Watch 4 will also have a Bespoke Edition that allows you to choose the color of the body and the strap. Again, you can get this exclusively from the samsung.com website using the Bespoke Studio.

The biggest eye-catcher of the Z Flip 3 is the four times larger Cover Screen. It now measures 1.9 inches diagonally and can therefore display a lot more text. Many other specifications have remained the same like the 6.7 inch foldable screen, the double 12MP camera and the battery capacity. There are some subtle differences though.

For example, the inner screen now has a refresh rate of 120 Hz which gives a lot smoother animations. The Flip 3 is further equipped with an improved hinge mechanism that can better keep out dust. It's still not dustproof, but it is waterproof for the first time. This gives it an IPX8 rating. Also new are the stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support.

Personalization

Where the specifications of the Galaxy Z Flip3 are a small update, Samsung innovates especially in the area of personalization. Thanks to a whole range of accessories you can tailor the Flip3 entirely according to your own wishes. Starting with the extra color options in which the Flip 3 will soon be available; Cream, Green, Lavender and Phantom Black. There will also be cases with ring holders or cords attached, which will be available in numerous colors. Some of these will be available exclusively from Samsung.

Availability and price Z Flip3

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 will be available in stores from August 27th but can already be ordered. Those who do so will receive a year of Samsung Care+ as a gift, which will protect their phone against water and crash damage. If you also trade in your old mobile, you will receive up to €200 extra in trade-in value. The entry-level price starts at 1,049 euros. That is 200 euros cheaper than what the Flip 5G was first sold for.

Green, purple, gold and black. Judging by the images below, these colors seem to be certain for the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip3. The source also talks about gray, pink, blue and white but we don't get to see images of those (yet).

The picture is clear by now; a flip phone with dual tone coloring. The secondary screen outside promises to be a lot bigger (1.9 inches) and the cameras also get an update with a more prominent place. Inside, a 6.7-inch screen is expected, just as before. Inside, however, there seems to be some improvement. A new Snapdragon 888 processor versus the Snapdragon 865+ of the Flip 5G.

Launch date Galaxy Z Flip 3

Another render of the Flip3 shows the secondary screen on the outside. And on it, you can see something interesting: a date. "Wednesday, August 11". Could this be the possible launch date? It's quite possible. Samsung itself previously mentioned "later this summer" and mid-August fits nicely under that. But as with everything in life, nothing is guaranteed, so we'll just have to wait for an official invitation.

As for the future price, Samsung may have another surprise up its sleeve. There is talk of a significant price drop of perhaps as much as 20 percent. Presumably, this will not drop the retail price by the magic thousand-euro mark but we are getting close.

The images are from a number of sources that are not yet very well known. So we can't vouch for its authenticity. The leak starts with the Galaxy Z Flip 3; the third iteration of Samsung's clamshell foldable. Samsung skips the Z Flip 2, though the 5G version of Z Flip can be regarded as the 2nd Flip.

For the Z Flip 3, Samsung seems to be using a two-toned design. This makes it look a bit like former Pixel phones. It was previously thought that Samsung might apply the same Contour Cut Camera style as with the S21. There doesn't seem to be any question of that. Possibly to better integrate the secondary screen into the design. On the Z Flip, it is still very prominent visible. The leak also clearly shows that the screen will be a lot bigger, something that was already taken into account. Instead of only 2 rows of text we see at least 5 in the example.

More color options for Flip 3

Also, the foldable Flip 3 seems to come out in at least 4 different colors; white, gray, purple and blue/green. The previous generation was only available in 2 colors; Mystic Bronze and Mystic Gray. Specifications are not given except for what is visible on the images. There we can read that the device is wrapped in the new Gorilla Glass Victus. The hinge also looks different and is possibly even sturdier with more protection against dust and dirt.

Fold 3 first with Under Display Camera

The future Galaxy Z Fold 3 will also get the sturdier Gorilla Glass Victus with a new hinge. The biggest eye catcher seems to be the selfie camera, which is placed invisibly under the screen. This makes the Fold 3 the first to have a so-called Under Display Camera

On the back of the successor to the Fold 2, there seems to be 3 cameras. Strangely enough, there is no Contour Cut Camera here either. Why exactly should become clear when Samsung announces the Fold 3. The only reason we can think of for now is that the device might look a bit too fat. But let's wait until Samsung officially announces both phones, until then everything is still uncertain.

The Fold3 is also expected to be the first Fold with support for Samsung's S Pen. This means that you can not only operate it with a stylus, but also take notes with it. Ideal for such a large screen. It is also rumored that the Galaxy Fold 3 is the first foldable phone with a waterproof IP rating. For this, the necessary changes would be needed, especially to the hinge. The launch of both phones seems to take place somewhere around June/July. In the meantime, a lot can change.
