According to our mobile phone expert
The foldable Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 256GB Bronze 5G has a large storage of 256GB. Open the device and use it as a kind of small tablet. You can watch your favorite series or read the newspaper comfortably on the large and sharp 7.6-inch screen. When you close the device, you operate it like a regular smartphone with a 6.2-inch screen. There are 3 cameras on the back of the device. With the wide-angle lens, you can photograph sweeping landscapes or large buildings. With the telephoto lens, you can zoom in up to 2 times without loss of quality. The Galaxy Z Fold 2 has a large 12GB RAM and a powerful Snapdragon 865 processor, so it's suitable for the most demanding tasks. Thanks to the huge 4,500mAh battery, you can get through the day with normal use without having to recharge it.

I hesitated for a while whether I should buy this device or not, but in the end I did. It took me a few days to get used to switching between internal and external screens, but I'm really happy with it.
If you open the internal screen, reading e-mails, documents, web pages, ... is a joy. In the past I was always on the road answering emails incorrectly and then you had to zoom in and out on a PDF. Now just open it and you can read everything neatly.
Definitely recommended for business users. It will cost you something, but then you will have something.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 is an incredibly unique piece of technology. After the first generation that definitely had some teething problems, Samsung has immediately succeeded with the 2 in bringing a fully-fledged product to the market without significant shortcomings that shows us a glimpse of the future. The front screen allows you to perform quick basic tasks such as messaging, calling, quick searches,... in a compact format. Although the focus is certainly on the beautiful large foldable screen, the front screen as you are used to from Samsung is simply top quality. Razor-sharp image with vibrant colors. The outer screen is now also large enough to be usable. For example, I use that screen for almost all tasks during the day (calling, texting, e-mail, quick search,...). The user experience is very pleasant for this kind of task. The unfolded screen is perfect for more relaxed tasks such as videos and longer research work or use of apps. You simply open the screen and get a full tablet experience. Simply fantastic! The so-called "crease", which always seems so visible, is not so visible or disturbing to the user himself. You don't see it or barely see it, you do feel it during use, but this is not very disturbing. The foldable screen is not glass like the front screen, but a kind of plastic glass. You can feel this, but again it doesn't bother you. The screen quality is slightly less than real glass, but you don't notice that much. The quality is very high and the screen size created is just great, a pocket-sized tablet that you can take anywhere and everywhere and that also has sim support. The Flex Modes that you can expand to more apps via Good Lock (not officially available in BNL) also brings new and useful functions by partially folding the screen at different apps. In terms of performance, this is also a great device. The Snapdragon processor blasts through any task at light speed, no matter how many apps you have open. Thanks to the large amount of RAM, apps in the background are almost never closed, so you can continue where you left off, absolutely great. The battery is also very strong, even with intensive use of the large screen you will not run out in 1 day. The camera is very good as you are used to from Samsung, but it is not the best Samsung has or is available on the market. That being said, you can take very nice photos and videos with it. Android has improved a lot over the years. Android 11 currently running on the Z Fold 2 is super efficient and gives a pleasant user experience. Samsung's own additions to the operating system bring so many extra functions. If I had to think of a disadvantage, it would be the price: Personally, I bought the Fold 2 as a second chance at 1200 euros, which, given the current prices for Smartphones, is a correct price for a piece of the future in your hands. I think the current new price of a 1700 euros is very high (prices have generally become too high).
As a side note I can give: The screen protector on the unfolded screen of the second chance product was damaged (the only damage was, the rest was in great shape, hence the very large discount). Before purchasing I did a fair bit of research about removing the screen protector because it is such a shame to have a cheap piece of plastic/rubber stuck to such a high quality screen and unique piece of technology. My decision was to remove the screen protector most likely. When I saw the damage, the choice was actually already made for me after I had checked the correct functioning of the system. I can confirm that the experiences circulating on the internet are correct: the screen feels and responds better and looks so much better without a screen protector. Removing it yourself is not that difficult at all, but you can have it done in a Samsung center if you want. The screen is more sensitive than that of a regular smartphone, but if you take good care of it, which you normally will do with any smartphone and certainly one in this price range, nothing should happen to it.
