Six Reasons to Buy a Foldable Smartphone

Samsung’s latest foldables, the Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4, offer new and versatile device experiences that are optimised for work, play, and everything in between.

Aside from being engineering marvels, Samsung’s newly released Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4 incorporate unique functions and popular apps like Microsoft Office and Instagram, making them suitable for daily use.

We unpack six reasons why you should start using the Galaxy Z Flip4 or Galaxy Z Fold4 today.

Effortless and Flexible Multitasking

With the Flex Mode function, having a flexible screen design that can work as separate panels gives you more ways to multitask across apps on the go. Flex Mode allows apps to reorient to fit the screen when your phone is partially folded, allowing you to watch a video on one half of the screen while navigating on the other (see image above).

The Galaxy Z Fold4 also has a new Taskbar and swipe gestures, giving you a PC-like layout for quick access to your favourite and most recently used apps. You can then easily re-fit full-screen apps in one’s screen with a swipe and switch quickly between pop-ups or split screen views for increased productivity.

Enriched user experiences on your most-used apps

The experience of using foldables can only be excellent if the operating system and apps are optimised for their specific form factors. The latest Galaxy Z series are the first to be equipped with Android 12L, which was designed specifically for large screens, including foldables.

Samsung collaborated closely with leading app developers to create unique user interfaces and optimised apps that enable increased functionality whether the phone is open or closed, ensuring that users get the most out of their foldables.

Drag-and-drop functionality is now available in Google-branded apps such as Chrome and Gmail, allowing users to quickly copy and paste links, photos, and other content across apps. With Google Meet, you can now share joyful experiences with more people by participating in virtual co-activities such as co-watching videos on YouTube or playing games on a video call. Microsoft’s Office suite, such as Outlook, now make use of the foldable display, allowing for more information onscreen and faster interactions with content.

The upgraded S Pen allows for better navigation.

With the Galaxy Z Fold4 revealing a stunning 7.6-inch AMOLED Main Screen, the S Pen is the ideal add-on to ensure precision and efficiency when drawing, taking notes, or navigating. The S Pen has become even smarter, with new AI technology in its Smart Select function that automatically recommends follow-up actions.

The S Pen can be stylishly attached to the Galaxy Z Fold4 with the new Standing Cover, which comes in matching colours for a seamless look, to ensure your phone remains as light and thin as possible.

Thinner, lighter, and more portable than ever

The ability to enjoy large screen sizes in a conveniently compact form is a primary benefit of foldables, and the latest devices in the Galaxy Z series continue to push the limits of the folding form factor without sacrificing quality.

While the Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4 are both smaller than their predecessors, the devices retain their respective 6.7″ and 7.6″ AMOLED Main Screens.

The slimmer hinge and narrower bezel on the Galaxy Z Fold4 make the phone lighter and more comfortable to use with one hand. The improved dimensions of the Galaxy Z Fold4 result in new screen ratios on the Cover Screen and Main Screen for added functionality and an immersive viewing experience.

Built for Creativity and Customization

If compact size, versatility in creating content, and customization options are important factors in which foldable you choose, the Galaxy Z Flip4 is the best option.

The Snapdragon® 8+ Gen 1 Mobile Platform powers this fun-sized device, which has an upgraded camera with a 65% brighter sensor. FlexCam, the phone’s front and rear dual cameras, also allows you to capture photos and videos from various perspectives, and the improved Quick Shot function now includes a preview on the Cover Screen to give you more options as you capture your favourite moments. FlexCam is compatible with Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook, allowing you to easily share your creative shots with loved ones.

The 1.9-inch Cover Screen now has more shortcut options, allowing you to turn on the flashlight or aeroplane mode, listen to music, make a call, or respond to texts with emoji and Speech-to-Text without having to open your phone.

The Galaxy Z Flip4 comes in four vibrant colours: Bora Purple, Graphite, Pink Gold, and Blue, which are new. If none of these options appeal to you, the Galaxy Bespoke Edition allows you to design your own device. The Galaxy Bespoke Edition, which is available exclusively for the Galaxy Z Flip series, allows you to choose from 75 different combinations of glass and frame colours for the ultimate customization experience.

Designed to go the distance

If you’re concerned that foldables will be more susceptible to everyday adversity, don’t be. Armor Aluminum frames and hinge covers are used on both the Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4, as well as Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus®+ on the Cover Screen and rear glass. The screens on the devices have been carefully engineered and optimised to be extra durable and resistant to damage from external shocks, such as dropping one’s phone.

You can also rest easy knowing that rigorous durability tests have shown that the foldables’ design can be unfolded and folded over 200,000 times. Both phones have IPX8 water resistance certification, so they can be used in rain or shine.
