Umm.. I gotta mention, the Z Flip isn’t much of a small phone. According to the specs, it has a 6.7” display. Seems to me your better off with the 6.2” S20, but perhaps your looking at the folding aspect of it.
But if I was in the market for one those Samsung phones, It’s go big or go home.. S20 Ultra please!
I've gone big on my last 3 Samsung purchases and my last Pixel purchase. I definitely will go big or stay big on a Note. The Note is where I go big or go home.
I did find I'm really happy on the iPhone 11Pro despite feeling cramped back when I had an iphone X, which is the same size as an 11Pro. As years change I find my needs and preferences vary. It's weird how much they can vary.
Right now I want my main phones that I carry to be smallish. The size of an iPhone 11 or smaller. I think the S20 is just a couple of millimeters taller. That's fine.
Yeah the Flip is thick. That's okay. That would fit in the purse pockets and pants pockets I am using currently. It is more the length and width of my Note that causes me difficulties with purses and pockets.
I used to use small backpacks with large pockets for my phones, which is how I had been accommodating 2 and even 3 large phones. I was using backpacks as purses because I needed two hands free. I was helping an elderly person get around, like at restaurants and places like that I had to help lift and that sort of thing. Backpacks were also handy when kids were smaller and needed Mom to carry everything for them. Anyway, things changed rather abruptly with the passing of my family member and the girls carry purses of their own now, so a few months ago I went back to smaller purses.
The Z Flip is marketed primarily to women and I think it's spot on to do that. I love the design of that phone. It really speaks to me. Matching it up with the aesthetic of a makeup compact was a good idea for a product aimed at women. It makes a new piece of tech feel instantly familiar and friendly. It's just too expensive.
And I'm not sure how I'm going to feel about that crease. I hadn't thought too much about it while my cold was at its worst. But my head's clearing up a bit and I'm starting to think about things I could not really concentrate on before.
I just remembered something. I used to have a purple Gameboy foldable that looked a lot like the purple Z flip. I used to wish it were a smartphone and said I wished someone would make a phone like this. I used to carry that thing with me everywhere like a kid even though I was in my 40's. I'm kind of a strange woman.
