    Tech Talk on SamMobile TV: Is the Galaxy Z Fold 3 a Note replacement?

    To the massive disappointment of Galaxy Note fans, the rumors turned out to be true. Samsung didn't reveal any new Note models at Galaxy Unpacked this year, but instead, it focused on pushing the new Z3 foldable lineup in the limelight.

    Samsung tried to make things better for Galaxy Note fans by adding S Pen compatibility to the Galaxy Z Fold 3. And make no mistake. Adding S Pen support to the foldable display was an amazing feat, to say the least. It's an upgrade that many foldable phone enthusiasts have asked for since the launch of the original Fold back in 2019, and it's most welcome.

    The question then is whether or not the Galaxy Z Fold 3 can be viewed as a Galaxy Note replacement. After all, it has an S Pen, right? Well, not quite. Despite the impressive tech behind the new Samsung foldable, the Z Fold 3 is unlikely to convince hardcore Galaxy Note users that the new S Pen solution is better than the old. Why? Well, you probably already guessed the answer if you're a diehard Note fan, but you can check our new Tech Talk episode at SamMobile TV for more details.
