Samsung’s Pokemon-Themed Accessories Set to Release on February 27th

Sudhanshu — Thu, 23 Feb 2023 17:21:54 +0000

Are you a big fan of Samsung and Pokemon? Well, we have some incredible news for you! As we approach Pokemon Day on February 27, which celebrates the release of the groundbreaking Pokemon Red and Green video games in Japan in 1996, Samsung has just announced that it will be re-releasing some of its most beloved Pokemon-themed accessories.

Samsung has announced the return of three popular Pokemon-themed accessories. These include a watch band for the Galaxy Watch 5 series, a phone case for the Galaxy Z Flip 4, and a unique Poké Ball-shaped case for the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. While these accessories are currently listed on Samsung’s website, they will not be available for purchase until February 27, which coincides with Pokemon Day.

The most eye-catching of the bunch is definitely the Poké Ball-shaped case for the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. They have made a comeback after becoming a fan-favorite in last year’s Pokémon accessory release which featured the same Poké Ball for the Galaxy Buds Pro. The protective case on the other hand features the iconic starter trio from Pokemon Gen 1 (Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle in addition to the face of the franchise – Pikachu. It goes without saying that Samsung kind of missed an opportunity to make the Galaxy Z Flip 4 case look more like a Pokédex, but this case also looks quite cool.

Due to the immense popularity of these Pokemon-themed accessories, they sold out in less than a day last year, leaving many fans disappointed. With the popularity of these accessories, it is hard to predict how long they will be in stock this time around. Therefore, it is highly recommended that fans act fast to get their hands on these limited-edition items.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 vs Motorola Razr 2022: Imperfect But Remarkable

Paco Zheng — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 05:06:01 +0000

As promised before, we bring you a comparison of two compact foldable phones – the Motorola Razr 2022 and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4. To make this honest-review video, we paid quite a lot of money on these two foldable models. So if you like this comparison video we’ve made, please let us know that it was worth it by watching the video here, subscribing to our channel, and hitting the like button.

[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qmc7JD_w30c[/embedyt]

Pricing

Well, since we are on the topic of money, that’s also one major complaint we have about these foldable phones. At this point, the Z flip 4 officially starts at around 999 US Dollars, while the starting price of the Razr 2022 is about 860 US dollars. And since the Razr now is only officially available in China, you may be able to buy it from a third-party retailer outside of the country for a higher price, which could be even higher than the new flip’s price. So for most users, the high price tags will deter them from experiencing these special phones.

On the other hand, when compared to regular flagship phones, it’s really hard to ignore their drawbacks, like shorter battery life, more conservative performance, and average camera modules. But at the same time, there’re some unique and fascinating features that you can only experience on such models.

Compact foldable design

For example, when folded up, these two models are really compact and fit well in your hand. Especially for the new Z flip, it’s undoubtedly the most compact foldable phone among all the new form factors in the market. I prefer the grip it offers, whether in folded or unfolded forms.

And I believe that most female users will not hesitate to go for the Samsung z flip series, since it’s more friendly for small-handed users. And it also offers more energetic color versions, in contrast to Motorola Razr, where the only option we have is a black color model.

But unfortunately, the new Z Flip model looks a lot like its predecessor, the Z Flip 3. Even though it has an excellent design with good built quality, we still didn’t have a lot of fun with the new model. The differences come in the form of squarer and flatter edges, more prominent buttons, a more significant cameras-lens bump, a flat cover with a matte finish, and a slimmer hinge too. As for the new Razr model, we’ve talked a lot in the quick-review video last month. It does change a lot compared to the Razr 2020, but it seems that many users still cannot accept the loss of the classic Razr design. And we found some comments that said it looks much closer to the Flip series. But now putting them together, actually you can see that they are still very different.

1 of 2

The new Razr 2022 is noticeably larger in my hand, and also brings a larger secondary display with wider edges that are not as flat as the Flip 4. This makes Flip 4‘s design look more elegant, which I believe is why it’s so popular among female users. And the color stitching design is also visually more impactful and stylish.

In the folded form, the Flip 4 still closes with a visible gap. This may be to avoid grit staying on the screen and causing the screen to be scratched when closed. But you don’t need to worry about it on the Razr either. Although there’s no visible gap on the Razr, the prominent edges would protect the screen from direct contact and scratches.

Cover screen: 2.7″ vs 1.9″

Well, the larger secondary screen on the Razr no doubt is much more helpful. You can operate most apps on the phone via the 2.7-inch display. You can have all kinds of activities like watching videos, navigating, turning it into a camera viewfinder, or even playing games without opening the phone. But as we said in the last video, this screen is not exactly suitable for some apps that show complex content and require complicated operations.

1 of 2

While on the Flip 4, there’s not much you can do on the informative cover screen. There are multiple clock styles for options, including one with customized characters. You can make your own emoji image, and every time when you light up the screen, you can see your character trying hard to get your attention with different movements.

In addition, the phone offers a few informative widgets, such as music, an alarm clock, weather, and so on. And you can also turn it into a camera viewfinder. But the preview window doesn’t show the full image, so from the tiny display, you can only see the facial state of your selfie and cannot check the composition of the whole picture and even the other person who is not at the center. It’s not even as good an experience as unfolding the phone and shooting on the selfie camera on the inner screen.

For daily use, of course, I like the Razr’s Quick-view screen more, not just for the better functionality but also for the quick-view experience. It’s so convenient that you can gently shake the phone to wake up the screen. On the new Galaxy Flip, you have to double-click the screen to wake it up. Though it’s not bad, I still prefer the former way.

Hinges & creases

The folding hinge feels quite different in these two models. For the new Flip model, the hinge offers more stable standing with wider angles, but at the same time, you can obviously feel its resistance more. And the new Flip’s hinge looks more refined with a smaller size. In contrast, I get the feeling that Razr’s hinge is rougher, and I can even see the edges of the exposed screen there. This also made me think of the issue of water resistance. The new Flip still passed IPX8-rated certification, while we don’t see any official description of the Razr’s water resistance.

But the Razr still has better crease control, while as you can see, the Flip 4’s screen crease is much more visible and you can even feel it when touching the screen.

Inner displays: 20:9 vs 22:9

Both of them come with a 6.7-inch FHD+ display with a high refresh rate. But the ratio is a bit different, as the Flip’s is a bit slimmer with much narrower edges. They both look great over colors and details with great response, support HDR10+ content, and have a centralized punch-hole camera as well. So it’s hard to tell which is better or worse. What’s slightly different is that the Z Flip has a variable refresh rate between 1Hz and 120Hz, while the Razr can run certain games at a maximum refresh rate of 144Hz.

Performance & Gaming comparison

As for performance, since they are both powered by the most powerful Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip, actually there’s no need to argue about which phone has better performance. You can check out the comparison of benchmark and gaming results here.

Both have good heating control in daily use. But the Z flip could maintain a more stable and continuous high performance under heavy loads.

1 of 5

Software for Semi-folding forms

As for their software. No doubt there’s been a good accumulation of experience for the Flip series and the new model supports a feature called Flex mode Panel for more apps when the phone is folded upright, though in some apps it’s not so practical.

1 of 2

Cameras

Now let’s look at their cameras. Both of them feature a dual-camera setup at the back, one main camera, and another wide-angle lens. The combination of 50MP and 32MP sensors made the Razr look more promising to win this round. However, we were wrong.

1 of 10

The samples show that the Flip 4 has better HDR recognition and processing, which made the images look greater with vivid colors and excellent contrast. While for the Razr cameras, when the images got correct processing, they looked good with more natural reproduction and stable white balance. Sometimes Samsung phones will have inaccurate white-balance recognition.

Under high-contrast conditions, the Razr’s samples sometimes might have a reddish issue in dark corners, while the Flip’s images might have an unwanted hazy effect. But overall, the Flip’s main camera performed better and more stably over image pureness, and the 50MP resolution of the Razr camera didn’t play to its strengths on clarity. Even when we turned on high-resolution mode, there’s no obvious gap between the two.

The situation is the same over their wide-angle lenses. The Flip model has better HDR, better contrast details, and even better clarity. But the two have a very similar fringing issue.

A good thing for the new Razr is its close shot feature. It can shoot much closer under the macro mode, and the samples are also sharper with excellent detail.

1 of 4

Both of them do not have an optical zoom lens, but the digital zoom-in samples shot on the Flip model look a bit better with better HDR and processing, though the sensor only features a 12MP original resolution.

Well for night shooting, things changed. The larger sensor of the new Razr finally came into play. The images shot on the Razr have and more accurate colors and better noise control for darkness. And even under the auto mode, the bright detail also got well-processed with correct exposure. Although we could have a better image under the Flip’s night mode with less noise, the Razr’s sample still looks better.

Things got similar for the wide-angle lenses. The Razr still got slightly better images, but what’s different is that the Flip’s sample got significantly improved under the night mode. Especially under extremely low lighting, it might catch up and reverse the result.

Battery & charging

Both phones bring improvements in battery life. The new Razr is equipped with a 3500mAh battery, while the new Z Flip was upgraded to a 3700mAh capacity. But they still don’t compare to almost all the regular phones. The Razr 2022 supports a slightly faster-charging speed, but it still took us around 63 mins in the charging test. Oddly enough, the new Razr model consumed much more power in our latest battery-life test, while the new Flip’s result is much more acceptable.

1 of 2

Now let’s check out their sound performance via this Video. You can judge for yourself.

Conclusion

So that’s all for the comparison. So we think the Z Flip 4 is still dominating the market of compact foldable phones with a better overall experience. But we’re also impressed by the new Razr to some extent, such as the practical cover screen and the optimized camera experience.

Galaxy Z Flip 4 teardown video shows modest improvements over the Z Flip 3

Jed John Ikoba — Tue, 23 Aug 2022 11:08:14 +0000

A PBK Reviews’ teardown video of the just-released Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 has surfaced. The detailed video showed strong similarities between the new clamshell and its predecessor, even on the repairability scale.

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 comes with much hype and expected significant improvements from its predecessor. The new teardown video provided the repairability particulars of the Galaxy Z Flip 4.

The PBK Reviews repairability video shows that the Z Flip 4 can be easily disassembled and fixed, similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 3. The device does not have major design changes from its predecessor both within and on the exterior. The battery of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 is split into two sections and their removal requires some care and the use of isopropyl alcohol. The larger part of the battery sits underneath several other components so it takes much effort to reach it.

The teardown video also showed how delicate the display of the Z Flip 4 is. Its internal screen should be handled with care, similar to the Z Flip 3. There are only minor differences between the internal architecture of both the Z Flip 3 and the Z Flip 4. One such difference is that the connectors were switched to opposite sides and the battery in the new model is linked to the motherboard under the cameras.

The mmWave 5G antenna of the new model was reduced from two to one, while the space for the second was left unused. Apart from these differences, the hardware of both devices remained similar and they both have the same repairability rating.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Launched with Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 Soc, larger battery: Price, Specifications

Anurag — Wed, 10 Aug 2022 14:24:55 +0000

Samsung has launched the latest Galaxy Z Flip 4 at the Galaxy Unpacked event held today (August 10). The new foldable comes with significant upgrades over its predecessor. It is equipped with the latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC, a 3,700mAh battery, a dual rear camera setup, and much more. Let’s have a detailed look at its specifications, pricing, and availability.

Design & Display

Samsung’s new clamshell is carrying many upgrades in terms of performance, camera, and more but design-wise it looks the same as the Galaxy Z Flip 3. However, Samsung claims that it slimmed down the bezels and hinge. It has the same dual-tone design with two cameras on the back. The cover display is also the same size as the Flip 3.

Talking about the display, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 flaunts a 6.7-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate (1-120Hz). The smartphone also has a 1.9-inch Super AMOLED cover screen on the outer display that offers a 260×512-pixel resolution.

Specifications

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 features some impressive hardware specs. It draws power from an upgraded Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, which is currently the most powerful chipset you can find on an Android device. The chipset is paired with the same 8GB RAM. Storage options include 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB.

On the software front, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 runs Android 12 with One UI 4.1 on top. The device is expected to receive an Android 13-based One UI 5 update very soon. The update policy on the device is also pretty solid. Samsung claims the Flip 4 will receive 4 years of major updates and 5 years of security updates, that’s more than what any other OEM offers.

The device is carrying decent upgrades in terms of battery. It packs a larger 3700mAh battery. For reference, the Flip 3 had a 3300mAh battery. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 supports 25W wired charging, as well as Fast Wireless Charging 2.0 and reverse wireless charging.

Camera

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 houses a dual camera setup on the back. The main camera is 12-megapixel with 1.8µm pixels and OIS. The main sensor is accompanied by a second 12-megapixel sensor with a 123-degree field of view. The camera department is the same as the Galaxy Z Flip 3, however, Samsung claims that the main camera can click 65% brighter images. On the front, the device has a 10-megapixel camera for selfies and video calls.

The primary camera can now snap photos in normal and portrait mode in low light thanks to Samsung’s Super Night Solution technology.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Flip 4 official renders leaked ahead of August 10 launch

Divyansh Mehta — Fri, 29 Jul 2022 12:49:54 +0000

More and more details are beginning to surface as Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event in August draws nearer. Despite the fact that we have previously only seen renders, today marks the full unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy Z Foldables.

Our best look yet at the next smartphones is courtesy of Evan Blass, who posted the leak on 91Mobiles. Even if there isn’t much to be enthused about in terms of the design, it is wonderful to see all of the phones before their formal introduction. The Galaxy Z Fold 4 can be seen in three colors from the renders: black, gold, and what seems to be a deep blue. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 in its four available colors—black, rose gold, light blue, and Bora Purple—is also given a nicer aesthetic. Samsung previously revealed the Bora Purple shade when it unveiled a new Galaxy S22 color scheme. Additionally, it hinted that the color will appear on upcoming gadgets.

Notably, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 will be powered by Qualcomm’s most recent Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC, which is constructed on TSMC’s leading 4nm node and offers up to 30% more battery life than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip. The chipset will have storage capacities of 256GB and 512GB and will be combined with either 12GB or 16GB RAM.

A 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide unit, and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens with a 3x zoom are all included in the optics of the smartphone. The front camera on the outer screen will be a 10-megapixel unit, while the camera on the inner screen would be a 16-megapixel under-display unit. Other than that, the gadget is rumored to have a 4,400mAh battery with 25W fast charging and run One UI, which is based on Android 12.

Samsung teases upcoming Galaxy Z foldables with an official trailer

Divyansh Mehta — Thu, 28 Jul 2022 13:01:03 +0000

Samsung has been hyping its cutting-edge foldable phone series’ upcoming smartphones. Unofficial leaks and authorized teasers alike flooded the media in July with information regarding Samsung’s forthcoming Galaxy Unpacked event. Samsung has now released its newest, even lengthier official trailer for Galaxy Unpacked, which will take place before the South Korean tech giant unveils the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 on August 10.

This 45-second commercial, like the one we saw yesterday, plays on the slogan “flex is better than flat,” indicating that a foldable smartphone would be preferable to a drab old glass-sandwich model. The video supports the overall trend of design that we’ve seen in leaks, with these next foldables mainly mimicking the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Flip 3.

The Flip 4 will likely be available in four pastel colors: blue, black, beige, and lavender. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Galaxy Z Fold 4 will likely share the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ CPU at their core. While leaking renders indicate a larger cover display, a larger battery would also be a nice feature.

There is always a cost associated with change, and this year, it is believed that Samsung would raise its prices. Even so, there will undoubtedly be some alluring deals, reductions for trade-in vehicles, and extras to help make the purchase worthwhile, such as the $200 reservation credit that is now accessible. The foldables will likely be the main draw during Unpacked, but Samsung is also anticipated to present the Galaxy Watch 5 and the most recent version of the Galaxy Buds Pro.

The camera bump is a bit more pronounced compared to the last generation, and it has a two-tone design with the camera module painted in black.

The volume keys and another key (presumably a specialized digital assistant key) can be seen on the Galaxy Z Flip 4’s right panel, while the SIM card tray is located on the left. The speaker grille and USB Type-C port are both located on the bottom panel.

Coming to the color options, the renders showcase the device in black, golden, purple, and light blue colors. These will likely be marketed as Graphite, Pink Gold, Bora Purple, and Blue color options.

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 is expected to launch with a 6.7-inch Full HD+ sAMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Additionally, it will have a 2.1-inch sAMOLED panel on the outside serving as a secondary display.

The phone will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, up to 12GB of RAM, and up to 256GB of storage. According to rumors, the battery unit will enable 25W fast charging and have a 3,700mAh capacity.

From these reports, it is clear that the next generation of foldable smartphones will debut with slight price bumps compared to the current generation. However, we will likely have to wait till August 10 for the official confirmation, so stay tuned.

Samsung says it has shipped “10 million foldable devices”

Divyansh Mehta — Thu, 21 Jul 2022 07:56:30 +0000

Just a few weeks out from its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung has disclosed that “almost 10 million foldable devices” had been shipped globally. Dr. TM Roh, the company’s chief of Mobile Experience (MX) Business, stated in a post on the Samsung Newsroom that this is a 300 percent increase from 2020 and that he anticipates the “fast-paced growth” to continue. The Flip, which resembles a clamshell, was chosen by the majority of its foldable customers—apparently 70% of them. That comes as no surprise at all given that Samsung already acknowledged that the Flip 3 led to a greater number of brand switches than its flagship models.

Notably, the 10 million units Dr. Roh claims Samsung shipped last year is a significant increase over the prior shipment figures IDC released. According to report released in February by the International Data Corporation, 7.1 million foldable phones will be shipped globally in 2021, including both flip and fold form factors. Regardless of the actual number, Samsung’s MX division had an increase in income last year, largely as a result of the successful launch of its foldables and most recent Galaxy S handsets.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 renders leaked

Additionally, D. Roh provided an update on the performance of Samsung’s smartphones in addition to confirming that the company will unveil its upcoming Flip and Fold models at its upcoming Unpacked presentation. He added that Samsung made improvements to future products to improve user experience.

Samsung will host the Galaxy Unpacked event on August 10 at 09:00 AM EST to launch Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Flip 4. The newest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 engine, up to 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and 1TB of UFS 3.1 storage will power the future foldable smartphones. The company is likely to launch Samsung Galaxy Watch Series 5 alongside the aforementioned devices.

Now, ahead of the launch event, 91mobiles has revealed the first official images (allegedly) of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 showcasing its looks and design from the side.

Going by the renders, we can see that the Galaxy Z Flip 4 doesn’t come with any major design changes. It however appears to have larger buttons, a more pronounced camera bump, and an overall thicker body compared to the current gen Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3.

The thicker buttons can be a stylistic choice, but the thicker design is likely due to the rumored battery capacity improvements. Let’s take a look at what we know so far about the smartphone.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 specs (rumored)

According to the rumors so far, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 will debut with a 6.7-inch Full HD+ sAMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate. It will also have a secondary display on the outside featuring an sAMOLED panel that measures 2.1-inches.

For photography, the smartphone will feature a dual camera setup on the rear consisting of a 12-megapixel primary camera and a 12-megapixel ultrawide camera. On the front, we will likely get a 10-megapixel sensor for selfies and video calls.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 to have eSIM support in South Korea

Jeet — Thu, 14 Jul 2022 04:23:17 +0000

Samsung recently enabled eSIM support for some of its current generation foldable smartphones in the US market but the feature isn’t available for every region. For instance, its home market of South Korea doesn’t have eSIM support.

That is about to change if the latest report is to be believed. A new report has claimed that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Samsung Galaxy Flip 4 smartphones will be the first to have eSIM support for the South Korean market.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 render by OnLeaks / Smartprix

Network operators in South Korea haven’t rolled out eSIM services over several factors, including concerns about SIM card sales, increasing subscriber churn, and declining average revenue per subscriber.

The government has been negotiating with the telecom operators since last year to introduce support for eSIM technology and now it appears that the carriers are in the final stage of developing eSIM support for cellular connectivity.

eSIM eliminates the need to use a physical SIM card to get cellular connectivity and is also easy to switch between carriers. The service can be activated remotely by installing eSIM, making some operators worry about subscriber churn because of ease.

Samsung’s foldable smartphones already have eSIM support enabled in the regions where the technology is available and the company will continue to offer it on the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 smartphones.

Foldable smartphone shipments rise 571 percent in Q1 2022, clamshell phones dominate

Viraj Gawde — Thu, 02 Jun 2022 13:06:42 +0000

Foldable phone shipments rose by 571 percent in the first quarter of this year as per market research consultant DSCC. Major OEMs of foldable devices sold 2.22 million units in the January-March quarter. This was also the third-best quarter for foldable smartphones, however, the shipments were still 47 percent down quarter-on-quarter from a record high of 4.2 million units sold in Q4, 2021.

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 was the second popular foldable phone for the third consecutive quarter. Huawei’s rising market share is also attributed to the Huawei Pocket P50 which is again a clamshell phone. The above three models accounted for a 91 percent share.

The DSCC report states that the foldable smartphone market is expected to see strong growth in 2022. It expects to see a 107 percent increase in foldable smartphone shipments to over 16 million units. Much of the expectations will be on Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Z Fold 4.

The listing reveals that the smartphone runs an octa-core processor with four efficiency cores running at 1.80GHz, three cores running at 2.75GHz, and one high-performance core clocked at 3.19GHz. This chipset is the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus chipset which is expected to be unveiled tomorrow (May 20).

Other than that, the device is revealed to have 8GB RAM and run on an Android-12-based operating system, likely the One UI 4.1. Coming to the benchmark results, the smartphone scored 1277 points on the single-core test and 3642 points on the multi-core test of Geekbench 5. The Geekbench database doesn’t reveal anything so let’s take a look at the leaked specifications so far.

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 is expected to measure 165.1 x 71.9 x 7.2mm making it slightly smaller but thicker than the Galaxy Z Flip 3. Its battery is rumored to be of 3,700mAh capacity which is 400mAh more than the current-gen flip. The device is also expected to come with 25W fast charging.

Samsung is doubling down on the foldable smartphones, and the company is gearing up to launch the next-generation Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4 smartphones in the coming months.

Ahead of the official launch of these upcoming phones, several details about the devices have already surfaced online. In the latest development, it is being reported that the South Korean giant has now started mass producing components for smartphones.

The latest report from SamMobile claims that Samsung has started mass production of the core components used in the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4 smartphones.

Samsung expects to ship more than 10 million units of the upcoming foldable smartphones this year. Given the popularity of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 smartphone compared to the Galaxy Z Flip 3, the production of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 4 could account for about 70 percent of the company’s foldable smartphones.

If the company manages to ship its targeted units by the end of this year, then it will be a milestone as for the first time, the foldable phones could account for about 1 percent of all the smartphones delivered worldwide.

Although the foldable smartphones are still pricier than the traditional phones, we expect the pricing to decrease in the coming years, with more such devices from other brands entering the market. The lower pricing could lead to more people adopting and using foldable phones, increasing their market share globally.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 renders leak online showcasing the smartphone’s design

Samsung’s next-generation foldable smartphones are expected to get launched in the coming months and ahead of the official announcement, both the upcoming devices, Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4, have leaked multiple times.

Now, in the latest development, renders of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 have surfaced online, giving us a better idea about the phone’s design. In terms of design, the phone is similar to its predecessor, without any major visible changes.

The clamshell foldable smartphone has a two-tone front with a small display and two camera sensors along with an LED flash. There’s also a side-mounted fingerprint sensor along with a power button and volume rocker keys.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 will reportedly measure in at 165.1 x 71.9 x 7.2mm. This means that it’s slightly smaller and slightly thicker than the Galaxy Z Flip 3. The increased thickness could be due to the higher capacity battery.

Under the hood, the device is expected to come powered by the yet unannounced Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus processor, but the company could also end up using the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC.

In a recent report, analyst Ross Young revealed that the device will be made available in four new color options – Gold, Gray, Light Blue, and Light Violet. He also adds that the smartphone will have some customization options for colors similar to its predecessor.

Z Flip4 To Feature 12% Larger Battery, Z Fold4 to Feature 6.5% Wider Cover Display – Rumour

Even though the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Z Fold 4 have not been announced yet, both devices seem to be garnering attention across the tech world for the past week because both devices have appeared on several national consumer electronics safety certification platforms across a few key international markets as of late.

As the conversation for both Samsung’s next generation of foldables continues to flare up, famous smartphone industry insider and leakster, Ice Universe, has taken to Twitter today to share some key specifications about Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Z Fold 4.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3

In his tweets today, Ice Universe reveals that the Z Flip 4 will be sporting a more generous 3,700mAh battery, which is 12 per cent larger than the 3,300mAh battery found on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3. Coupled in with the latest news that the Z Flip 4 is confirmed to feature 25W charging over the 15W found on last year’s Z Flip 3, it seems that Samsung has created the 2022 Galaxy Z Flip 4 to solve the battery endurance complaints of its current-generation Z Flip users.

On the other hand, the bad news here is that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 will retain the same 4,400mAh battery as last year’s Z Fold 3. Although battery performance on the Z Fold 3 was not bad per se, it was not great either. Foldables fans will be disappointed to hear that the Z Fold 4 this year will also only sport 25W fast charging instead of the 45W charging that Samsung had introduced on its Galaxy S22 Plus and S22 Ultra devices this year.

However, there was good news about the Z Fold 4 revealed today. Ice Universe has also shared the display aspect ratios for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 on Twitter. He shares that the Fold 4’s external cover display has an aspect ratio is 23:9, and the inner folding display has an aspect ratio of 6:5. For context, the Z Fold 3, has a 24.5:9 external cover display and a 5:4 inner folding display.

If those aspect ratios sound confusing to you, then here’s the TLDR after all the math is done. Assuming the height of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 will remain the same as the Z Fold 3, the Z Fold 4 will be featuring a 6.5% wider cover display, and a 4.17% wider inner folding display. This design means that the Z Fold 4 will be having an overall broader body, with more screen real estate, and the inner folding screen will now resemble more of a 1:1 square than that of a rectangle.

The squarish design change for the Z Fold 4 sounds rather off-putting at first, but if Samsung can manage the proportions and ergonomics of its foldables just right, the design change may be a welcome one for the future foldable smartphone users worldwide.
