SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FLIP5

The new Galaxy Z Flip5 features the same internal Dynamic AMOLED 2X and external Super AMOLED screens as the Z Flip4. But thanks to reduced bezels around the foldable screen and a flatter aluminum frame, the Z Flip5 is now a bit shorter and with a thinner hinge

The Foldable Dynamic AMOLED 2X remains equally adaptive with up to 120Hz refresh rate and equally bright with a peak brightness up to 1200 nits. The crease in the middle is here to stay for now and so is the perforation for the selfie camera.

The Z Flip4 is IPX8-rated for water resistance - a feature that only Samsung offers across its third and fourth generation of foldable devices. Samsung and Sony are the only two makers that aim to offer water protection on most of their phones, and we truly appreciate the effort.

Besides the chipset upgrade, the Galaxy Z Flip5 also features an improved camera system on the back. It is still a dual-camera setup, but the main shooter now relies on a larger 12MP sensor with 1.8µm pixels coupled with a wider 24mm f/1.8 OIS lens. This new sensor should allow for a 65% improvement in light gathering and improve the low-light performance. The 12MP ultrawide and 10MP selfie cameras remain the same as on the Flip4.

The Galaxy Z Flip5 is powered by a 12% larger battery - it now packs a 3,700mAh cell, up from 3,300mAh within the Flip4. And even better, the phone now supports 25W fast charging, up from the sluggish 15W.
