They are brighter and better in many cases but one most important the oled screens set to full brightness for too long and your screen will be forever like having a burned map inside.
Thus in long term use an cheaper LCD is much better option in my honest opinion.

LG Superfan, 07 Jul 2020IMO they should remove Z from their naming Galaxy Fold and Galaxy Flip sounds betterNo, that would make too much sense and Samsung is all about nonsense.

Which represent phone screen durability.
Or Zero like nothing. Nothing particular and special to see.

Duck of death, 07 Jul 2020I know Galaxy means Android, which is why I wrote what I wrote.
That doesn't mean things... moreBesides, It's not just Samsung who does it.
Others copied it to.
Like Huawei's Mate, Xiaomi's Mi, Oppo's Find.

I'm not saying otherwise.
I was just indicating what Samsung is used to do.

AnonD-754814, 07 Jul 2020To comment on this one must know how Samsung's naming method works.

That doesn't mean things can't change. The Galaxy brand is redundant by the fact they don't sell Windows or Tizen phones any longer. The Tizen brand is in fact also called Galaxy these days, which just makes the Galaxy brand a brand for the sake of the brand.
I still think cleaning their whole naming hierarchy up would make things less confusing and models easier to remember.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G. They're bad names, too long for the average Joe to remember.
Samsung Fold 2, Samsung S20 Ultra. Isn't that a lot cleaner and easier to identify?

Seriously, how does the team that's responsible for naming Samsung phones still have jobs?

"The name was chosen by Samsung founder Lee Byung-chull whose vision was for his company to become powerful and everlasting like stars in the sky."

Duck of death, 07 Jul 2020Uhm, how about Z Flip 2? I mean, that isn't completely outlandish to guess.

Galaxy means Android. Without the name it feel like a different OS.
And Samsung generally uses any single Alphabet for same type of Phones.
So using Z for both type isn't a Samsung approach.
I'm not saying This can't happen at all. I'm saying it's highly unlikely.
This rumor might be wrong just like the Leaked(by Samsung Ukraine) Image of Note 20 ultra is wrong.

time to remove the "Galaxy", sounds boring. Why put "samsung galaxy" everywhere instead of just samsung. Even "Optimus" is better.

I'd personally prefer if they dropped they Galaxy part of the name. I mean, they're almost exclusively making Android devices these days, so the differentiator isn't necessary any more. They'd even be able to remove the Z label on the folding and flipping phones.
Samsung Flip 2 rolls off the tongue a bit better than the current name, I think.
