Here’s why Malaysians are switching to the awesome new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G is the more fashionable of their two foldable phones that have just launched in Malaysia. Where the larger Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is intended for power users, the Galaxy Z Flip3 5G is a more mainstream and lighter phone with an unmistakably distinctive form factor.

Improved in every way over the original Galaxy Z Flip, the new Galaxy Z Flip3 5G is an innovative melding of performance and design that’s little bigger than the palm of your hand and yet capable of unfurling into a massive 6.7-inch smartphone. 

Featuring a front Cover screen that’s 4x larger than its predecessor to easily view notifications, a smooth 120Hz FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED display, the latest Snapdragon 888 processor and a powerful 12MP dual camera array with a front-facing 10MP selfie camera, the Galaxy Z Flip3 5G is a compact powerhouse indeed and Malaysians are loving it to bits. 

Here’s what three Malaysians have to say about how and why they switched over to the new Galaxy Z Flip3 5G from other brands.

Samantha Annie, 27, HR Executive, Selangor 

“I am switching from my Vivo V7 to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 because of its irresistible design. Flip phones are novel in aesthetic because of their nostalgia, but Samsung has completely reinvented flip phones for the future with the Galaxy Z Flip3’s functions and features. The foldable’s slim design fits perfectly in my hands and is easier to carry in my pockets without being awkwardly bulky. Overall, the phone left a good first impression when I tried it at the store and proved that it was so much more than just another flip phone. Loved that!”

Kyle Wan, 30, Sales Associate, Johor Bahru

“I want to replace my iPhone 12 Pro Max and Huawei Mate 40 for the Galaxy Z Flip3 because of its unique form factor. The bold design is not something you see every day and it pulled my interest when I first laid eyes on the Galaxy Z Flip3 during its global launch event. The Cover Screen is what I am most excited for, especially how much I can personalise it to suit my own style on top of adding widgets and using it to preview messages. Most importantly, I can just swipe up on the Cover Screen to quickly pay for my lunch-time coffees through Samsung Pay!” 

Chai Sook Foon, 35, Stay-at-Home Mom, Selangor 

“My loving husband replaced my Huawei Mate 20 Pro with the Galaxy Z Flip3 for our recent anniversary mainly because he knows I love taking pictures, but also because he’s terrible at angling my ootd’s! Beyond that, I spend plenty of time with my son as a stay-at-home mom and the Galaxy Z Flip3 is quickly becoming our stylish companion for capturing cute moments, making short videos, and various learning activities that tighten our bond during these developmental years.”
