How to reset Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is a good foldable smartphone to have, especially if you do not want to spend a lot. The phone works great and as you would expect but with daily usage for a long period of time, it is not surprising to see yourself running into issues. This is true for any electronic device you have at your house. These issues can occur due to something you did intentionally or unintentionally. Sometimes, even a new software update may result in the phone not behaving the way it should.

While a simple reboot can fix many of the issues, it does not work every single time. This is where factory resetting the phone could do the trick. It should be noted that a factory reset will delete all the data stored on the phone. This will bring the phone back to the original state that you get when you took it out of the retail packaging for the first time. It means you will have to complete the setup process once again and re-install all your applications and games.

You should also factory reset your smartphone before selling it to someone else. We recommend taking a backup of your important date before proceeding.
