Sometimes new software is all it takes to breathe life into a powerful form factor....

“The Galaxy Z Fold 4 is less compromised, more powerful, and more durable than its predecessors. The battery struggles to keep up with its ability, but otherwise, it's one of the very best smartphones you can buy today.”

Usable cover screen, Excellent multitasking features, Inner screen is great for games and video, Reliable and fun camera, Water resistant and durable materials

Heavy use kills the battery, Slow charging

Samsung has pushed the limits of what Android hardware should be for years now. From devices like the Note and its first launch to today with its foldable devices, Samsung pioneers the future.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 is a carefully considered upgrade that addresses the greatest concerns of its predecessor and improves the design, performance and user experience in almost every way.

Minor changes could attract if you were on the fence, but bigger upgrades from competing foldables leave the Z Fold 4 in the...

Large 7.6in display is great for multitasking, Hugely improved rear camera setup, All-day battery life, New software enhancements via Android 12L
