What you should know
What matters about this phone
Samsung’s first Fan Edition flip phone is best understood as a cheaper entrance ticket to folding design rather than a new flagship experience.
The documented initial commercial milestone is 2025-07-25 in United States and launch markets.
Design, screen and everyday experience
It inherits much of the prior Flip generation’s approach to a compact folded body. The cover panel is smaller and less open-ended than newer flip rivals, making the inside screen more necessary for ordinary tasks.
Cameras and practical compromises
The main camera is usable for day-to-day shooting, including using the rear cameras for self-portraits when folded. Zoom ambition and night movement are not its differentiators.
Strengths, weaknesses and the independent review
TechRadar found the display attractive but criticized the battery and cover-screen software friction. Its new-device premium is difficult to defend next to discounted earlier Flip models.
TechRadar identifies a restrictive outer-screen workflow and merely average stamina despite a solid hinge and displays. The findings are attributable to TechRadar; they are not tests performed by GearVerity.
Who should buy it — and who should avoid it?
Worth considering for: Someone wanting a Samsung foldable specifically, with warranty support, at a substantial discount.
A poor fit for: An all-day power user, frequent cover-screen app user or budget gamer.
2026 purchase, regional and software checks
Before paying for an import, confirm cellular-band support, physical or eSIM requirements, charger inclusion, warranty coverage and whether the exact model is supported in your country.
Confirm hinge condition and screen-care warranty on used devices.
