How to pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Z fold 4 and Galaxy Z flip 4
The Samsung Galaxy Z fold 4 and the Samsung Galaxy Z flip 4 are now available to pre-order.
Revealed at the Samsung Unpacked event, the duo of new folding phones boast upgraded processors, improved performance, better camera systems, battery life and screens over their folding predecessors.
Both Android devices have proved popular with consumers following a rocky launch for the original Galaxy Z fold in 2019, but it’s the more affordable Samsung Galaxy Z flip 4 that’s expected to resonate most with fans this year.
The more compact, clamshell design of the Galaxy Z flip series has fast become the most appealing and pocket-friendly form factor for this kind of folding phone, and the lower price makes it one of the better-value folding phones on the market.
Both phones go on general sale 26 August, with pre-orders available now.
