The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 is the latest in its line, massively improving on its hinge tech. But is this the right phone for you? Let's find out.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 was made for a specific kind of smartphone user. While I'm not sure what exactly that kind of person is, I say with more confidence that I am not that person. But even as someone who prefers smaller phones, the fifth generation horizontally folding device by the South Korean tech giant still offers something to love, which I admit is still surprising until now, slightly over a month of using the device.

On that note, being a folding phone, there's no getting around the crease in the middle of the inner screen when you use the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 when you spread it out. It can be distracting, especially when viewing darker content. But on the flip side, you'll probably notice the crease less when multitasking, and having two windows open side by side.

On the number-crunching front, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 does its usual magic. This is reflected in both synthetic benchmarks as well as in real-world gaming use. Granted, games are more polished these days, but my experience with Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, effectively the only mobile game I play, as well as Monster Hunter Now for the sake of confirming a few details for this opinion piece, were buttery smooth with no hiccups.

In other words, it has just about the same strengths and weaknesses of said phones when it comes to the imaging department. Detail retention remains great, while colours tilt towards the vivid side of the scale on occasion. Unfortunately, there's still a very noticeable colour inconsistency when the phone switches between the three cameras, though this is a common occurrence in today's age of multi-camera phones.
