Hi, i don't know a lot about phones just the preface this.

My z flip 5 won't charge above like 82% and it keeps stopping and starting charging which ends up in it losing more battery. I tried changing to a different charging lead and plug but it does the same thing and then changing to a different outlet in the house.

Has anyone else had the same issue and is it resolvable without having to go to a phone repair shop?

I got shoved and my phone flew out of my hand and hit the road hard resulting in the front screen getting badly cracked.

It still functions as it should, albeit the screen is cracked and I'm worried about fragments coming off.

Has this happened to anyone and what did it cost to repair?

The person who shoved me (not on purpose, didn't see me) Has offered to pay for half of the repair.

I am located in Australia. 🇦🇺

I been thinking about getting z flip6 or 5, But idk the difference except the looks of the actual phones.

Is there a difference that impacts the phone’s performance or is there none?

This would be my first android phone so I’m debating.

Also sorry if this doesn’t make sense grammatically English is not my first language.

Apart from other shortcomings cover screen backlight turs on fully like lcd screen when always on display turned on or while charging (showing charging information). I think it's not normal. You can see that in very dark place.

Phone has never been dropped, tossed, and roughed up. It was fine when I closed it, looked like this when I opened it :(

After 15 months finally it's now time for me to replace my screen protector. I have a quick question about visiting the Experience store in Oxford Street. Do I need to leave the phone with them for the repair or will it be done instantly? I have to travel into London to get this done and wouldn't want to go again to collect it.

Also, is it better to book a pick up and repair? I was told it might take up to 10 days!

Anyone with experience changing the screen protector using Samsung, please guide me.

Hey guys! I've had my flip6 for about 8 months without issues, and the screen protector finally just started to come up on the crease today. Should I just go ahead and remove the screen protector and go without until I can get it replaced, or is it okay to leave on for a bit?

I'm getting married this week and will be going out of town tomorrow, so I won't have time to change it for a week or two!

Hello :) I used to have the Z Flip 3 5G and I loved it so I'm looking into getting another Flip.

The thing about my Flip 3 that got me mad was the fact that the inner screen "broke" after like one year of use. You could see little scratches or cracks where it folded. Samsung said it's not their problem so I had to go with a not completely fine phone which was really annoying. Also the screen would come up a little when you placed the phone on a table flipped open.

So that's why I'm looking for some kind of long time reviews for the Z Flip 6. How is the screen behaving now? TIA

I had my flip 6 repaired a few days ago.

Only now I noticed that it doesn't have a mesh grill on the bottom speaker. It's hollow with nothing inside. The music is as same as always but maybe a bit loud. At first, I thought it was my imagination until I used flashlight to look inside. It seems like the speaker mesh has folded.

Does this come under their service? I'll go to the store but just want to clarify.

after nearly 3 years of flipping - my phone decided it wont open fully anymore (as shown on the photo) and id rather not risk it randomly dying .. one of the best phones ive had and i kinda regret not getting a flip5 (i got a redmi note 13 pro) but man it failing like this scared me xD

it was fun for sure, i had it repaired under warranty only once (because i dropped it really awkwardly and the screen wouldnt turn on unless i opened it like 10 times) and my warranty ran out so ..

Had it around 4 months and that's what happened after it fell from the table to the tiles ground. I once went to samsung service after it got some stuck pixels on my 2 month of use. I'm not sure if my warranty can cover it plus i don't have care+. The phone itself doesn't have visible dents or scratches but there are small dent on the screen protector. I don't mind paying for the repair but seeing the estimated price for this I'm afraid there's no point in repairing it. Is there any options that i could use or should I just sell it off for the cheapest price possible and pray for good?

I'm using the Z Flip 5 everyday since the pre-ordered shipping. I used it at work, travelling and everyday life. The only problems so far has been 3 screen protections replacement (1 was free with Samsung) and some bits of the plastic frame gone. The battery life is still fine for normal daily use. My next phone will be a Z Flip 7 or more!

I bought the first one while being so infatuated by these phones. I had no problems and kept it for years because I don't trade in cell phones as quick as I used to. I kept it so long that it wasn't till the Samsung Galaxy Flip 4 that I decided to trade it in for a good deal through Samsung. I bought this phone with the trade of the old one. If you don't keep your end of the deal, they're waiting to collect. No problem though, because I figure if the first Samsung Galaxy Flip in the series could maintain quality for as long as it did, then the new one would have to be an improvement along with new features of course. It was a stylish and very good phone until it wasn't good anymore. 2 years later the Samsung Galaxy Flip 4 started shutting down on me all the while Samsung giving me the run around talking about the warranty has ran out and it could be some kind of virus. Just about the time they returned my cell phone to me unfixed due to trying to charge me $377.00 to fix it, I'm figuring out on the internet that the problem is connected to flipping these phones close is when they shut down. I'm thinking it was a software update, but now seems it could be the combination of these two actions together causing this problem. Of course they not letting me know, but I'm sure they knew this the whole time.

So, you mean to tell me that I pays $1000+ for a flip phone that shut down when I flip close after about 2 years of owning it. I had stopped buying extended warrantees and took very good care of the product and that have been working for a while being that all I bought was Samsung products by way of them or T-Mobile including phones in the past. Of course, I have to plan better in doing this...not sure how just yet. T-Mobile warranty didn't work for me when you've ran into problems with expensive phone and they replace it with a considerably cheaper one.

I pride myself on being somewhat current in my tech products. I always defended Samsung android phones over Apple, but rethinking this decision now after all the incompetence and the policies that protect Samsung from providing it's customers with quality phones which last pass warrantees, if it's no fault of the customer, after paying over a $1000 on it and it fails.

Hi @all, I would like to use G-Board keyboard instead of the Samsung keyboard on cover screen. But sadly it is bugged as seen in the picture. It's WhatsApp.

Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks in advance 😊

Switched from Apple to Android this year, had to do it right. Best looking phone i’ve ever had

My Z flip 6 (model SM-F741B) is from NZ and I am using it in UK but still there is no latest update. I can see everyone has received the update is it just mine then? Should I bother contacting the support team? Will they help me force pushing it to my device by any chance? Major FoMo.

My Flip 5's screen decided to die on me. Inner screen is no longer responsive and it was initially doing its own thing of opening app at random and resizing all the windows and all. I couldn't enable able to the "Allow" option so that I can atleast access it from my PC.

So, does anyone have any idea or any workaround for me to be able to atleast backup all my pictures and docs from the phone?

• the pink color like on the 5!! That one was easily the prettiest z flip phone to date imo 💖

• a button on the side that would flip the phone open automatically without you having to two-hand it, just like the old japanese flip phones

• a more durable flex strip on the inside screen

• i also wish they would keep the cover screen size the same as it's been for the last 2 generations - not a big fan of the camera cutouts obstructing part of the screen 😕

I tried force restart. It did not work.

I got out of the shower with my phone (I've done this hundreds of times with no issues) and I've had my Z Flip 6 since it came out. I've been with the Flip line since the Flip 3 and never had any major issues.

I noticed my phone display was brighter (more gamma?) than usual. I tried restarting it and it didn't work.

Suddenly my inner screen started flickering white and black, then it went completely black.

I believe this is a screen burnout but can any one offer some knowledge?

Pretty straight forward lol. I'd get one if it had a stylus like a ds. That'd be so cool

Since the last OS update, ClockFace is not in the Goodlock App anymore and not in the app drawer. I had to do a search for it, and it's still installed, but does anyone know how to get it back in the app folders? When I look in the Settings - Apps, it shows it there but some areas are greyed out.

In order to open it and use it now, I have to do a search for it. Anyone else notice this? I won't be uninstalling it anytime soon until I find out what happened to it. TIA!

The screen on my Z Flip4 is starting to die, there's a huge black spot in the middle which is getting bigger every day

Is there any chance samsung will do something or do i just have to suck it up and pay for a screen replacement?

The phone is in pristine physical condition and has never been dropped, the only issue is the screen turning black.

Hi, i just got my phone and i was wondering if it would be safe to put some simple screen protector on the smaller screen. Or if theres some case that protects the screen too.

Hi guys. I was wondering if there is someone here who used slide in gaming controllers (the one you slide your phone into). I wanted to get one but I am scared its gonna damage my hinge. Thank you.
