If the very talk of flip phones conjures up images of old school phones sold at ah beng handphone shops, you may be out of the loop with flip phones’ latest iteration: the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3.
This new folding smartphone from Samsung can be found in Challenger retail stores. From now till 31st October 2021, purchase the phone through the 24-month DBS Instalment payment plan to enjoy a two month instalment waiver and pay as low as $54 per month.
Additionally, Challenger 28-month members can also save big by earning 2% V$ (worth up to $27.46), the rebate credits for Challenger’s ValueClub membership.
As one of the pioneers of foldable phones, Samsung has recently released the Galaxy Z Flip3, an improvement to 2019’s Galaxy Z Flip. With a much larger cover display, faster processing speed, and most importantly being 5G capable, the Galaxy Z Flip3 is an upgrade worthy of your investment.

For those new to foldable phones, you may have questions about its durability. After all, will a screen that can bend in half be more brittle?
This is where Samsung’s implementation of the Gorilla Glass Victus comes in. As its name suggests, this stronger phone screen will be able to withstand more punishments even from severe cases of butterfingers, although it’s still advisable not to throw your phone around.
Hardware aside, fans of mobile games like Genshin Impact or PUBG will be happy to know that the faster processing speed and improved display mean that your games will run smoothly without a hitch. With a more immersive gaming experience, your morning commutes will pass by in a breeze.

You can also take full advantage of its dual screen in Flex mode, where you can have two different apps running simultaneously on both screens. This is the same as having dual monitors all in the palm of your hand, allowing you to answer emails without pausing your YouTube video.
Of course, the biggest appeal of a foldable phone is simply how small it can get. Measuring just 86.4 x 72.2 x 15.9-17.1MM while folded, this phone will fit snugly into your pockets without making your fit look extra bulky. Not to mention that it weighs less too, coming in at only 185G which is lighter than its predecessor.
Of course, futuristic tech does not always come cheap. And with a retail price of $1,398 for the 128GB version, some of us may need to think twice before making the purchase.
However, should you choose to make payment via 0% interest DBS Instalment Payment Plan, you’ll get to enjoy a two month instalment waiver. This essentially allows you to save at least a hundred bucks compared to the retail pricing.
Simply walk into any Challenger retail store and make your payment with a DBS/POSB Visa or Mastercard Credit Card to split your purchase into discounted monthly repayments from as low as $54 per month.
Additionally, if you’re a Challenger 28-month member, you can earn a 2% V$ rebate with each purchase of the phone, amounting up to $27.46.
Here’s a full breakdown of the promotion:
Do act fast, however, as this promotion is only limited to the first 600 redemptions.
Whether it’s for work or play, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G is the latest trend in foldable smartphones that is sure to prove a worthy upgrade in your daily life.
