The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Flip 4 demonstrate the viability and further growth of foldable phones.

HIGHLIGHTS:

Samsung presently has a global sales presence for its fourth generation of foldables.
By the end of 2022, the company hopes to sell 10 million Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 devices.

The most recent foldables have a thinner hinge and a more durable design. In the form of the Galaxy Fold, Samsung debuted its first foldable for the general market in 2019. Since then, a lot has changed in the foldables industry. Fun fact: The first smartphone to have a foldable screen was the Royole Flex Pai. The original Samsung Galaxy Fold, however, is the device that truly deserves the honour of popularising folding phones. With a term of almost 4.

How good are Samsung’s newest foldables compared to models from the previous generation now that the industry has been around for around 4 years and 4 generations? Find out what I think about it by reading on.

A new era in smartphone usage was introduced to consumers with the release of the Galaxy Fold and, later, the Galaxy Flip. The concepts were wonderful, entirely original, and nostalgic all at once. When I used the Galaxy Fold and Galaxy Flip smartphones in their initial iterations, I was struck by how innovative they were. Despite how creative they were, I was never really sure in their long-term viability.

In 2022—a short time from now—foldables are widely used. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 were the first foldable phones to have an IPX8 rating for water resistance when they were released last year. And Samsung has increased the durability element with the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 by maintaining the same level of water resistance, improving the inside display, and using a smaller yet improved hinge design.

In addition to providing more screen space to interact with than the typical candy-bar-shaped smartphone, the fourth generation Galaxy Z foldables are also much more productive because to their distinctive user interface. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 allows you to enjoy a large 6.7-inch screen in a compact folded form factor while not in use, in contrast to the Galaxy Z Fold 4, which quickly converts your phone into a tablet. But Samsung has also paid attention to the software side of things, so it’s not only the aesthetic specifics or how distinctive of an experience these foldables give.

The most recent Galaxy Z Fold 4 comes with Android 12L, Google’s unique tablet operating system. When you combine this with OneUI, operating a Galaxy Z Fold 4 just feels like the software and hardware were meant for one other. For instance, you may rapidly move between programmes using the taskbar capability, which, incidentally, is also available on the earlier Galaxy Z Fold 3. This is made possible by having a dock at the bottom of the screen that, depending on your preferences, has a variety of programmes. Similar to that, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 is the greatest device to use Flex mode, another ingenious software gimmick.

As a result, you can run an app on the top half of the screen while using the app controls on the bottom half. For instance, the viewfinder is at the top and the camera controls are at the bottom while using the camera in Flex mode.

The software for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 could be the subject of a separate article. So, in addition to the software, I also want to emphasise how solid these phones feel when used regularly. I use the Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Z Fold 3 for my own use, and I’ve also looked at the Galaxy Z Fold 4. I can declare with certainty that foldables have arrived based on my experience using these smartphones and in comparison to the first two generations. Even on the most recent Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4, there are still minor flaws like the crease. Despite this, four generations later, both of these phones still exude confidence.

And I think the typical consumer is also ready to trade in their standard, everyday phone for a foldable; it’s not only the tech aficionados who think foldables are a safe bet to buy.

The first two generations of Samsung foldables didn’t sell all that well, based on sales. They did, after all, but not in the manner you might have anticipated from a flagship brand in the year of its introduction. However, sales of the third generation of foldables more than doubled, and based on Samsung’s current sales projections for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4, it expects to sell 10 million foldable smartphones by the end of the year.

By 2025, Samsung’s projection that its foldable smartphones will make up more than half of the premium devices it sells may very well be realised. But only time will be able to answer that.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 are fantastic flagship phones for the time being. In actuality, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 starts at roughly Rs 90,000. This is different from its preceding models. This indicates that you no longer need to spend more than 1.5 lakhs to get a foldable. Having said that, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 undoubtedly justifies its price if you want a 2-in-1 device that can function as a phone and a tablet.
