Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Review: cover display

Now, let's talk about that cover display, which is easily this phones weakest feature. It gets a 1.1 OLED panel on the front, which is just too tiny to be used in a practical way. I mean its fine for checking the time, battery percentage or getting a glance at incoming notifications, but apart from that, you can't really do anything meaningful with the baby-sized screen.Samsung, also, for some reason, wants you to use this a selfie viewfinder, but again its too unhelpful to properly frame a shot. To me, the petite cover display is clearly Samsung's attempt to save on battery life and I don't think its a strategy that will work in the long run.
