~ < p > Difficult phones are great for conversations, but they are not very practical. Experts have considered some of their shortcomings that may distract from buying such phone, & nbsp; writes & nbsp; AndroidPolice.com.

< H2 > a non -standard sides

< p >The “clamshell” displays have an atypical ratio of the parties. For example, the main screen Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 has a ratio of 22: 9. Traditional smartphones have a ratio of 19.5: 9. The screens of complex phones are higher but narrower. For those who like to scroll instagram tape and watch video on YouTube, a narrower screen seems a little uncomfortable.

< H2 > The protective film is removed

< P > Complex phones come with plastic protective films to prevent damage, and unlike traditional glass, they are prone to scratches. More importantly, they have a cheap and ugly appearance, and after months of using a gadget and completely peel off on the fold.

< H2 > Medical cameras

< p >“Closaces” are not distinguished by the quality of the cameras. Photos and videos, such as Z Flip 5, are devoid of detail and depth compared to those made by the iPhone. And all because folding phones have a thinner profile, and it is difficult for developers to place large sensors and lenses of the camera in such a thin body. The worst chamber in most “clamshells” is usually a frontal selfie camera, but the ability to compose and use the main cameras for selfie softens this problem.

< p > The fold is somewhat annoyed by users of phones such as Z Flip 5. Many people think that they get used to it in a few weeks, but it's not. On the new device the fold is barely noticeable but after you put it up and decompose it for several days, it becomes more noticeable.

< H2 > The strength of the hinges

< P > The hinges are shaken over time and after a few months of using the phone no longer surrender and are felt strong. Even at an angle of 90 degrees the upper half of the smartphone seems a little shaky.

< p > Samsung estimates the hinge Z Flip 5 in 200,000 Cycles of assembly and decomposition, which should be enough for the hinge to last about 5 years if you open and close the gadget 100 times a day.

~ ~ ~ < h2 > unsatisfactory battery time

< P > If you priorly work all day without recharging, experts recommend a regular flat phone, such as Galaxy S25 Ultra or Pixel 9 Pro XL. Despite the fact that a folding smartphone in the form of a book, such as Galaxy Z Fold 6, is larger, it is equipped with a smaller battery than S25 Ultra. This is due to the fact that “clams” are not able to effectively use the interior space as ordinary phones, due to the presence of a hinged mechanism that requires a design with a separate battery.

~ < P > The battery time is worse in complex phones in the form of a clamshell, because they are compact and give priority to the subtlety of the housing. In addition, the presence of several displays does not leave much space for a larger battery without potential damage to dissipate heat. For example, the iPhone 16 Pro max is working all day, but Z Flip 5 by the evening shows a warning of a low battery.
