Today, when you take out your phone, you have the option of unfolding it and having a tablet-sized screen. Behind this seamless integration lies Samsung Electronics’ constant innovation, which has laid the foundation for the Galaxy Z Fold to become a benchmark.

2019: Galaxy Fold

In 2019, the Galaxy Fold broke the mold of mobile phones. Featuring a stunning 7.3-inch Infinity Flex display, this revolutionary device offered users a tablet-like experience. Thanks to precision hinge technology, the phone can be easily folded like a book, providing portability without sacrificing functionality. This achievement is the result of innovation in all areas, from materials to technology.

The larger screen has opened up new possibilities for a more versatile viewing experience. For example, users can split the screen into two or three parts. To make multitasking easier, Samsung has added a Multi Window feature that allows users to run multiple apps at the same time. Additionally, content viewed on the protective screen can continue uninterrupted when the phone is unfolded. This device brought a whole new level of performance unmatched by other smartphones, inviting users into a whole new world.

2020: Galaxy Z Fold2

The following year, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Z Fold2, an improved version that incorporated valuable user feedback on the folding experience. The main screen has been redesigned for maximum immersion, being larger (7.6 inches) and featuring a sleek design that eliminates the notch and leaves just a camera hole. Additionally, the size of the screen protector has been increased to 6.2 inches, improving usability.

Additionally, Flex Mode was introduced, a feature that splits the screen when you partially fold the phone at an angle of 75 to 115 degrees. At the same time, the camera’s capabilities have been enhanced to produce even better photos: Auto Framing automatically adjusts the shooting range by recognizing faces and movements, and Dual Preview allows both the user and the subject of the photo to view a preview on the Home screen and Close screen at the same time. With a combination of flexible mode and camera upgrades, anyone can become a content creator.

Galaxy Z Fold2 has not only improved the multitasking experience but also simplified the way people manage multiple tasks on their smartphones. With improved multi-window mode, you have the ability to customize the screen layout to suit your needs. Additionally, they can seamlessly move texts and images between different running applications. The App Pair feature eliminates repetitive and time-consuming settings by allowing users to save combinations of frequently used apps and open them together as one group. These updates have made multitasking much easier and more convenient on mobile devices.

2021: Galaxy Z Fold3

To ensure that users don’t have to worry about accidental drops or water damage, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G has been updated with improvements to ensure durability. The device was the first to offer IPX8 water resistance.[1], allowing users to comfortably use their phones with wet hands while cooking or enjoying a beach holiday. The main screen is 80% stronger than its predecessor thanks to a protective film made from new materials.[2]. Using Armor Aluminum, the toughest material used in Galaxy devices to date, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus, smartphones are protected. Additionally, the phone has been verified by Bureau Veritas after rigorous testing to ensure it can withstand 200,000 folds.[3].

The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G has a 7.6-inch main screen that really shines. Display Camera (UDC) technology places pixels over the camera’s hole to improve light transmission and adjust the distance between pixels, resulting in smooth widescreen images. This way, they can enjoy videos, games and other immersive content in full screen without the interference caused by the camera hole. The new display features Eco display technology, which increases brightness by approximately 29%, providing exceptionally clear images even in direct sunlight.

For the first time in the series, Galaxy Z Fold3 5G includes support for S Pen Fold Edition, which ensures maximum efficiency when used on a folding display. If you need to quickly draw or take notes, the S Pen Fold Edition is available. If you double-tap the home screen while tapping the side of the S Pen Fold Edition, Samsung Note will instantly open, helping you take notes whether you’re watching an online course or talking on the phone. This add-on offers unlimited possibilities for work, school and more, and opens up countless possibilities for using your phone.

2022: Galaxy Z Fold4

The Galaxy Z Fold4 has seen significant improvements in weight and screen size. The device’s display weighs only 263 grams. It features a 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display, while the top display is wider and shorter to maintain a consistent aspect ratio. This design improvement allowed users to comfortably type and use most applications, even when the smartphone was folded.

Galaxy Z Fold4 takes multitasking to a whole new level. The taskbar feature, similar to the taskbar on a PC, allows you to add your favorite applications for quick access. Not only does it make it easy to navigate between screens of different apps, but it also provides an intuitive drag-and-drop functionality so users can display multiple apps at once. Additionally, the App Pair feature works directly with the taskbar, so users can save even more time.

The added swipe gestures further enhance the phone’s multitasking capabilities. With simple finger gestures, users can split the screen or open pop-up windows, making viewing multiple apps on one screen incredibly convenient. Dragging your finger from the corner to the center turns the current application into a pop-up window. Swiping two fingers from the right, left, or bottom splits the screen and displays the current app on both halves. Additionally, Samsung’s enhanced support for productivity apps such as Google Chrome, Gmail, Microsoft Office and Outlook allows users to easily manage multiple tasks no matter where they use their smartphones.

2023: Galaxy Z Fold5

Samsung recently unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold5, the lightest and most innovative foldable smartphone in the series, combining the power of a large immersive screen with a sleek and lightweight design. It offers portability at just 253 grams without sacrificing performance. The 7.6″ home screen provides a wide, uninterrupted viewing experience whether users are watching their favorite videos in portrait or landscape mode.

Gamers will love the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile platform for Galaxy, which enhances graphics and uses artificial intelligence to deliver next-level gaming experiences on the smartphone’s big screen.

Productivity is enhanced with an improved taskbar, two-handed drag and drop functionality, and hidden pop-up functionality, allowing users to easily multitask and move content between multiple apps. Additionally, the thinner and more compact design of the S Pen Fold Edition allows users to unleash their creativity anytime, anywhere.

Finally, in line with Samsung’s commitment to sustainability, the Galaxy Z Fold5 uses a wider range of recycled materials.[4]: Pre-consumer recycled glass and aluminum, as well as recycled plastic from discarded fishing nets, water drums and PET bottles. Even the packaging is made from 100% recycled material.[5]reflects the company’s mission to lay the foundation for a better future.
