We asked, you told us: The Galaxy Z Fold 3 has its fair share of detractors
July 18, 2025
TheSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 3might be the bestfoldable phonewe’ve ever seen so far on paper, owing to the improved screen durability, water resistance, and S Pen compatibility. It doesn’t hurt that the phone is actually a little cheaper than its predecessor.
Are all of these factors enough to convince you that we’re looking at a great device though? We asked you if the Galaxy Z Fold 3 is hot or not, and here’s how you answered the question.

Galaxy Z Fold 3: Hot or not?
Weposted the pollon August 11, and a total of 2,057 votes were cast until now. A grand total of just over 60% of readers indeed think that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 is a hot device. It seems like people who voted for this option are the silent majority, as most of the comments were negative towards Samsung’s new foldable. But a couple of comments do indeed express interest in the device though.
Meanwhile, just under 40% of respondents don’t care for the Galaxy Z Fold 3, voting “not” as a result. Comments suggest that some readers are disappointed with the camera system, price, and the S Pen implementation.
There is some truth to all of these complaints though, as you’re looking at cameras that haven’t changed much over the Z Fold 2 (save for the under-display selfie camera), a $1,800 price tag (cheaper than its predecessor but still expensive), and S Pen implementation that’s no match for the Note series.
