Conversely, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4<\/a> offers more of a traditional smartphone experience. Thanks to that hinge though, it folds down into a pleasantly pocketable size and offers some interesting features to boot.<\/p>\n It\u2019s also worth noting \u2013 for those who haven\u2019t tried any of Samsung\u2019s newer foldable phones yet \u2013 that the Z series has come a long way since its fragile first entries. Now, these phones are genuinely good products. They\u2019re hard-wearing, versatile and easy-to-use, albeit quite expensive.<\/p>\n So users have to pay a little extra for the innovative side of the Z series, but if you\u2019re determined to get your hands on a new foldable and you don\u2019t mind the price-tag, which one should you get?<\/p>\n We\u2019ve had hands-on time with both phones at a Samsung preview event and can now share our initial thoughts on the Z series.<\/p>\n Despite the obvious visual differences, these two phones have quite a lot in common. They both offer Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ to protect those folding screens and 120Hz refresh rates to keep things responsive.<\/p>\n Under the hood, they\u2019re both powered by the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus processor too and boast similarly speedy charging \u2013 they fill up to around 50% in 30 minutes using a 25W adaptor or higher.<\/p>\n One of the key differentiators in terms of specs, features and performance is the way the Fold 4 is essentially geared towards productivity and on-the-go working. When you open it up, the first thing you notice is the taskbar along the bottom of the screen. It\u2019s reminiscent of using a laptop or tablet and combines well with the phone\u2019s ability to open three apps at once on its large, clear screen.<\/p>\n The Fold 4 starts at a whopping \u00a31,649, with \u00a31,769 and \u00a32,019 options. The priciest version boasts a whole 1TB of storage though, which is impressive!<\/p>\n The Flip 4 ranges from a more modest \u2013 though only by comparison \u2013 \u00a3999 for 128GB, up to \u00a31,059 and \u00a31,199 for the largest 512GB option.<\/p>\n Both phones are available to pre-order now before being officially released on Friday 26th August.<\/p>\n Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 for \u00a3999 at Samsung<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 for \u00a31,649 at Samsung<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Both phones are more trim with slimmed-down bezels and hinges. It\u2019s the Flip 4 that is slimmer though, of course. It\u2019s appealingly pocketable and the more aesthetically pleasing of the two in our eyes, but loses out on that big screen experience.<\/p>\n By no means is the Fold 4 heavy and cumbersome though. At just 263g, it\u2019s the lightest Fold device that Samsung has made and it doesn\u2019t feel too bulky in the hand, especially for those used to a large phone. If small phones are particularly your thing, then the Flip 4 will be preferable, and more affordable alternatives include the Google Pixel 6a and the newest edition of the Apple iPhone SE.<\/p>\n Essentially, if you want a more affordable device that feels more like a smartphone, the Flip 4 is the choice for you. If you\u2019ve got the extra budget and like the productivity-enabling capabilities of the Fold 4, then it could be worth the extra cash.<\/p>\n Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 for \u00a3999 at Samsung<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 for \u00a31,649 at Samsung<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Both phones are also available to pre-order on contract from networks such as Vodafone<\/a>, EE<\/a> and O2<\/a>.<\/p>\n For more on Samsung\u2019s new products, take a look at our Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 release date<\/a> and Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro release date<\/a> pages.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><\/body><\/html>\n By George Storr Published: Thursday, 11 August 2022 at 12:00 am The Samsung Galaxy Z series foldables are some of 2022\u2019s most highly-anticipated releases.
