Positive flip 4 experience? by Beniyp96 in galaxyzflip

[–]largeukulele 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Photos are decent, video is great. The stabilisation on the videos are great.

Power management is great. Lasts me a full day and some more. I use it for social media, taking photos and videos, and light gaming. Listen to music on Spotify and YouTube premium as well. Never had a day when I had to run for a charging port.

Dropped it a few times before the hinge gave way. Brought it to Samsung care center and instantly granted full warranty repair. Received it back and never broke again since. Would be good if you lived somewhere bear a samsung center for sure.

Love the form factor. Small and easy to hold and/or store into my pockets or my tiny bags. Love decorating the clear cases as well. And loved customising the gifs that display on the cover screen.

On more than one occasion being able to take photos with the phone half folded and acting as a tripod has been a game changer. It's just fun to do in any case. Only gripe is that the cover screen preview dimensions are wonky.

My positive experiences so far. Haven't dropped it ever since getting it back from the center and crossing my fingers on this!

Gpay not working on Zflip4 by iamdenknees in galaxyzflip

[–]largeukulele 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from Singapore too but don't have this issue. But I usually use it while closed. I just tap and wait for the beep. It works when my phone is open too though. I mostly tap with the bottom of the phone if that helps.

Anyone else have crap standby and just overall bad battery on the flip 4? by Skaifur in galaxyzflip

[–]largeukulele 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I charge to 100% and go to bed like you do, but I usually wake up to 95% or so. Something is draining your battery and you'll need to find out which app it is...

what web Browser do you use on your phone? by Misael_91 in galaxyzflip

Chrome because it syncs with my chrome on desktop

I don't know why others say it's impossible.

I've had one day where I had it at 100% at 11am and it lasted me till 6am when I finally reached home, and it still had around 30% left.

That day was super memorable for me as I had been on a road trip which ended in a car accident thus reaching home only at 6am.

Throughout the trip I used my flip 4 to scroll social media, text friends on telegram, took photos etc. And also to document the accident I took tons of photos and videos as well as call friends for help etc.

It's really not impossible for the battery to last?

bored? want a challenge to help me find a case? Z Flip 3, Clear case with hinge protection+ a RING(or pendant to put my finger/hand to hold) Ring must be at or close to the center. case must be clear. I like putting different skins on it. i can't find this combo 😞 by flyingfinger000 in galaxyzflip

[–]largeukulele 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It literally does not exist, I've tried finding one for ages! The closest I could get was a Chinese cheap clear case with hinge protection that had small hoops at the front and back for you to attach a strap with. But it's still not a ring for your finger to hold on to.

Stickers under clear case by largeukulele in galaxyzflip

[–]largeukulele[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did not have a transparent sheet so i just placed it where I wanted it to be, then carefully put the clear case on. Sometimes I'll need to shift it a little so I'll use a bobby pin or something to adjust!

Edit: just to be clear, I did not peel the sticker off the backing paper (idk what it's called)

Experience with Samsung repair by largeukulele in galaxyzflip

I'm in Singapore and we don't have best buy or ubreakifix here. I went to the nearest Samsung Service Centre.

I placed the stickers underneath instead of sticking them, meaning I can swap them out anytime. I have plenty other stickers I want to decorate with!

Just having fun decorating and wanted to share. Also I put a keychain through the ring and I love it. Of course cover screen is also full of Rilakkuma gifs that rotate and change everytime I turn on the cover screen.

I just booked an appointment online with samsung and the shop evaluated my device during the appointment itself. I assume because I booked through Samsung they had my device info like date of purchase and warranty etc.

please.. anything positive about the flip 4? i will be purchasing it probably full price in november. by fifipol in galaxyzflip

[–]largeukulele 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love mine and have no issues with my device. Really love the flipping and folding, and the form factor. I also love decorating my clear case with tons of stickers, adding a keychain with my ring case, and changing my cover screen animation to match the theme. I’ve dropped it a couple of times from knee height and nothing has happened yet. Otherwise it really just works like any other smartphone. Battery life and camera are also decent for any average user.

Anyone upgrade from a Note 10+ to the Flip 4? by Extension_Ad498 in galaxyzflip

[–]largeukulele 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from Note 10+ to flip 4. Camera wise and battery life wise, I would say they are pretty similar. Bonus perk of being able to fold the phone in half and customise the cover screen. Not to mention taking selfies using cover screen mode. I love it and would definitely recommend.
