Okay folks, today marks day 1 of ordering a refurbished phone. On the one hand the primeday price was a sweet 800 bucks, not bad at all. On the other hand it seems we are spinning the wheel and here are some of the choices. 1. You get a phone that does not charge 2. You get a phone does not turn on 3. You get a phone that is still locked 4. You get a phone that comes damaged 5. You get a phone that is actually fine. It looks great. Based on the averages MOST people get a perfectly fine phone. You are just unlucky if you get a busted on. That said you have to be vigilant when you order one of these suckers. First thing inspect like crazy, and try to charge. So far there was a slight scuff near the center of the hinge, looks just a bit dirty. Also it charges, so win so far. I am going to attempt to tranfer some data and move my number over, so in the next few days I will see how it goes and will probably come back with more updates. Do note that it is good of us to TRY and recycle phones and stuff. It's better for the world and all that jazz. Me I just wanted to save some money, which may or may not bite me in the ass later. Oh and just to let everyone interested in this phone know, google searches will confirm that these phones do have issues with the middle screen getting cracks and dead pixels regardless of what you do. Samsung is also TRYING ACTIVELY to not pay for any of these. It seems if you buy the samsung care plus they take care of it MOST of the time. That said their website providing information on the care plus is confusing and seems pretty useless. I did splurge on a heavy duty case because I just want to make sure that I am protecting the screens as much as possible. I am also going to try a stylus and see how that goes. Day 1- Phone looking good, turns on, charges, samsung transfer app works well android to android. So far so good. Day 16- Very glad I bought that heavy duty case because this phone is attracted to the floor. Stuff did manage to get under the case but overall it's working well. Battery life on the phone is okay overall. If you use your phone a lot, you will be charging it everyday. Tablet mode drains it pretty fast it seems. I charged it to about 90, then read novels in firefox for about 3 hours and it dropped to 50 percent. This is not a phone you want to use if you are going to be away from a charger for a long period of time. Don't get trapped on an island with it. Besides that I am really enjoying the phone. It has a super awesome refresh rate, I picked up a stylus which was pretty nice for the big screen (note the small screen doesn't accept any stylus). It is amazing for reading books or comics, watching movies or tv shows. It feels like a really nice small tablet. One of the problems I can already forsee is that this is a 1-2 year phone as opposed to 3-4 phone like I normally buy. You are most likely going to want the newest one when it comes out assuming it doesn't explode note style. Also having a protective case is nice, but man this phone is now Thiccc. Also some apps do NOT like going from the small screen to the big screen and will literally crash because resizing hurts their brains. Most are of mine are fine but a few do crash. On a plus side besides the awesome refresh rate which makes this feel like a real fancy phone, it is a big talking piece and even without me shoving this in peoples faces like pictures of my children, people come up to me and say "Oh, you are making me want a new phone." Let's hope my luck keeps going. Day 1,034 - Well it's time folks. The phone is starting to have very weird issues. The sound isn't working when the phone is open and sometimes the inside screen won't turn on. Apparently it could be the ribbon cable which if you have time and skills you can replace yourself for about 40 dollars. Otherwise Samsung will try and make you pay 600+ to do so as they will say no matter what it's not covered. So this phone lasted just shy of 3 years. All in all not bad for a refurbished phone. I will say owning it has been amazing and I do want to own another fold. I got a surprising amount of compliments. I may see about getting it repaired locally but otherwise I have heard good things about the new fold. I will think about it still.

I usually do not write reviews, but I must say this phone is incredible. It can do so much. I was an Apple products user for 14 years. Had the iphone, Macbook, ipads, and apple watch but decided to get a new phone. My iphone is still working, just wanted a change, and after doing lots of research, I came to find the Galaxy Z Fold 3. I did my research on that but did not want to spend money on the full priced new version if I did not like it, so I decided to look for refurbished and new ones. I got this one as like new, and when I got it, other than two little dents on the edge of the phone, the rest of the phone looked and performed as close to new. I love this device. It is great for multitasking, for design and art, and for reading or viewing purposes. The camera quality is not the greatest but it is still really good compared to other phones. The sound is amazing, and the screen quality is good, plus gaming on it is a blast. The only downsize to the device is the battery can drain pretty quick when unfolded which is to be expected from a device with two screens that operate in that manner. Other than that, the charging takes less than two hours with the right wire and charging port. Amazon did a top notch job with the resell of a used electronics. If the dents were not in the phone, I would honestly think it was brand new. But the small dents to me were something I barely cared about because I put a very durable case on it as soon as I could and I barely take it off to see the issues on the phone. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to get one, to do so through Amazon refurbish, or used selections.

I really liked most things about this phone, for the very short 5 months of light use before the big inside screen completely quit working out of nowhere. It wasn't dropped or damaged in any way. The inside screen just didn't light up one day when the phone was opened. The outside screen still works, but since that outside screen is quite a bit smaller than the screen on most other smart phones, losing the big inside screen on this phone completely negates the purpose of having this particular phone altogether and makes it nothing more than a bulkier, heavier, less user friendly version of any other android phone. I went through all of the recommended fixes, from a simple restart, to a safe mode startup, all the way through running diagnostics testing, and eventually a factory data reset, with nothing fixing the problem. Obviously the issue is with the screen itself, or the data ribbon connection from the screen to the board. Either way, I don't trust the quality of this phone enough anymore to invest hundreds of more dollars on having it torn down and fixed. I would never waste my money on any version of the Galaxy Z Fold again, or the Flip for that matter, since it's the same technology. It's a good concept, but apparently the technology isn't quite ready to reliably hold up to even careful, light use for any length of time.

I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy Fold 3, and I must admit that I was both excited and skeptical about getting a refurbished item. However, my skepticism quickly turned into relief the moment I laid my hands on this piece of technology. We all know the Samsung Galaxy Fold 3's design is a true game-changer. The moment I unfolded the device, I was greeted by the stunningly vibrant and expansive 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED display. The crispness and clarity of the visuals were exactly what I expected, there did not appear to be an excessive amount of where or noticeable markings that would raise any concerns. One of my initial concerns was the battery life, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well it held up throughout the day. I will be honest, I keep a charger nearby in the event that I have a day of heavy use. When it is a heavy use day the battery does appear to go quickly as compared to the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra that I also own. The fast charging capability is a game-changer, too, as it replenished the battery quickly during those rare moments when I needed a boost. I recently purchased a fast charging cable and an Anker power supply that I will be reviewing later but I had purchased from Amazon as well. The charger is a beast for anything USB-C related. Now I will be honest, the camera can be a lot better especially because I came from a newer Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra device, but it is sufficient enough to use as my daily driver because I like having a bigger display in my hands. I believe that most reasonable people understand what I'm talking about if they have come from any flagship phone from Apple or Samsung in recent years. If you have under full device before like I have, the camera array is basically what you can expect, but it gets the job done from simple snapchats or quick moments to share in messaging. I will say I will say that the device is a true testament to Samsung's commitment to innovation and quality. RECELL did a fantastic job at any restorative effort and I hardly noticed any cosmetic or software irregularities. I hardly write reviews on the things that I purchase but I was hoping that this can help someone who was skeptical but finally found a reasonable price point to make the jump to get a foldable for the first time or to return back into the foldable scene as I have. If you're considering a refurbished device, I highly recommend giving the Galaxy Fold 3 by RECELL a chance. It has redefined my smartphone experience once again and has me eagerly looking forward to what Samsung has in store further in future.

In one sentence: I would only recommend this if you like to play phone games or read. If not, you're probably fine with whatever you have now. I literally only bought this so I could read manga on the go, without having to carry a tablet with me. It is a stellar device, but for the price and supposed "longevity" of this phone, I wouldn't recommend it to the Average Joe. I don't like reading 30 page reviews, so I'll do "quick" bullet points: -folded screen is a bit slim for two hands, and unfolded is difficult to one-hand, if not impossible for those with smaller hands. -modern phones are so stupidly smooth that this thing NEVER feels safe in the hand without a case to add some grip. It is essentially the weight of 2 phones in one, so it is deceptively heavy. My case is Samsung's own leather cover, which does a great job of making the phone more comfortable in the hand without adding bulk. It is pictured above and as you can see it is very minimal ( since you probably can't even tell.) (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0977JZH1C) -All apps will default to a certain orientation on the internal screen, but there is a Labs feature in the setting that allows you to freely rotate any app to see which you prefer (portrait v landscape.) Super appreciated, but does "break" some apps as they don't know what to do with the extra space and just leave black bars, or crop themselves weirdly. Some apps do work great either way though, as pictured in Gems of War. -Outside of the folding-screen part, this is still just a phone. Great displays, great performance, but still does all the things your phone already does, so personally I don't think there's a lot to add in that regard. I've only had the phone for 2 days at this point, so I will follow-up if things start to fail, but even now I would say unless you have a specific need for a phone like this, you'd be better off getting something else. It'll be cheaper and last longer (probably.) But hey, it IS a phone that unfolds into an 8 inch tablet, and that's freaking cool, so ๐คท -90 Days Later- Unfortunately the phone still works 100%, and with the 90-day-return window passed the Amazon Renewed program covers, I dread the moment the the phone starts to fail because I have only loved it more every day, and know that if it does break I will just buy another one.

Posting a review a couple months after buying the refurbished version of this phone. Overall i am really happy with the device and the amount of money i saved by buying it refurbished. Product felt new, Pretty powerful phone and honestly being able to adjust a lot of settings to conserve on battery are really nice. It even has a lot of built in UI options just for this kind of phone so you can decide how you want to use the larger screen when unfolded. Downsides are that the battery can drain pretty fast when in normal use use. I don't think this is is the issue of the replacement battery but more of the fact that it has to power both screens and have higher quality picture. If full day use, needs a one time daily charge. If half day or less use, Can go without 2 days without charging. The system even has a setting to where you can set the battery to charge only 85% to preserve the overall life. As well i found it was suggested to turn off fast charging in the options to have less ware on the battery life over time. The system has tons of options for maximum optimal battery use and efficiency which really made the phone feel like it can last as long as it normally would, So that's been super useful. Also there is no standard headphone jack in the device which is a bummer, But the actual stereo/sound system on the phone its self is really good, very clear bass. I'm surprised how much i used both screens equally though, Getting used to the folded narrow screen to a bit but i got used to it after a while. Unfolded is great for watching videos & movies, Playing games and any other tools that might perform better on a larger screen. Hard to go back to the normal phone format after having this for a while now. You will definitely want to get a case for this phone but, Very happy with the product though.

I wanted one of these back when they were new but they were way too expensive. And so I was thinking about getting a different phone and looked at the fold three I did some research I was told to stay away from versions one and two and the version for was a little on the more expensive side I picked this item up for under $400 which was my limit on paying for a phone. At first the battery life wasn't the greatest but after running it to 15% and charging it to 100% over the course of a week and a half the battery life has become significantly better they say that these phones are refurbished but I can honestly say from what I got and what I see it appears to be a brand new even though they said it was not what I received the phone there were absolutely no scratches or dings anywhere I checked every inch of the phone and it was flawless being able to buy a $2,000 phone for under 400 bucks that was a winning deal I would highly recommend the fold three for anybody looking for a foldable phone at a decent price. If you would like to get the fold for and have a little bit more to spend that would be fine as well I've had no problems I've only had the phone for a couple of weeks and I've had no issues at this point. The only drawback to buying one of these phones is once you have had one it's very hard to go back to a regular candy bar type phone.
