Other than that, the device is slightly wider, and when combined with the razer thin bezels, it makes for a better aspect ratio of 23:9 for the outer display.

The device has a 6.2-inch exterior display and 7.6-inches interior display panels with a new 10.8:9 aspect ratio, making it more square compared to the 11.2:9 aspect ratio found in its predecessor. The outer display has an HD+ (2316 x 904p) Dynamic AMOLED panel, while the inner display offers a QXGA+ (2176 x 1812p) Dynamic AMOLED panel.

Both displays carry support for a refresh rate of up to 120Hz. The inner display has 1,000 nits typical brightness while the outer display and back panel boasts Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection. The frame is made out of aluminum, and the device is 8 grams lighter than the last-gen model.

Specs

Under the hood, the device houses Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen Plus SoC which is built on TSMC’s industry-leading 4nm node. The chipset will come paired with up to 12GB RAM LPDDR5 RAM and up to 1TB UFS 3.1 internal storage (depending on region). It has a 4,400mAh battery capacity paired with 25W fast charging. The phone can refill 50% juice with a 30-minute charge time.

On the software side of things, the device has improved a lot compared to the last gen. It has an Android 12L-based UI which now comes with a PC-like Taskbar on the bottom of the device that allows for instant access to recent apps, most used apps, etc. The company has optimized Facebook, Youtube, Netflix, Disney+, and Microsoft Teams to better utilize the foldable form factor, while apps like Microsoft’s Outlook, Office, Teams, and Google Meet now offer tablet-like functionality.

There is also a Flex Mode, which activates with the phone half folded in a laptop-like position. This activates the camera for video calling in apps that support the mode. For those that don’t, it will turn the lower half of the screen into a touchpad and shortcuts bar.

The S Pen also has a new functionality called text extraction, which is essentially a quick and easy way of copying and pasting text by using the S Pen as a highlighter. Connectivity options include 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, and USB Type-C port for charging and data sync. The phone has an IPX8 rating for water resistance.

Cameras

The camera system on the device has also been upgraded from last year.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4’s dual-cell battery capacity revealed

Pranav Sawant — Fri, 22 Apr 2022 17:43:46 +0000

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 is the brand’s next foldable smartphone. A recent piece of news revealed the camera highlights of the smartphone shedding light on its ultra-wide-angle camera. Now, GalaxyClub has shared the alleged battery details of the Z Fold4.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 is said to come with dual-cell batteries. One of the battery cells will be rated at 2,002mAh while the other one will be a 2,268mAh cell. The total rated battery inside the Z Fold4 will be 4,270mAh.

Unfortunately and fortunately, this is the same rated battery as the predecessor Z Fold3. So expect the Z Fold4’s marketed battery to be the same as the Z Fold3. Why we say fortunately is because the news has it that the Z Fold4 will have a thinner design and improved camera hardware. To fit in the hardware, there needs to be some space, however, with the thin design, we expected even smaller batteries, but looks like that’s not the case. Despite the thinner design, the Z Fold4 has the same rated battery as the Z Fold3.

Apart from the batteries, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 is said to come with a 108MP primary camera. This sensor will be the same as the Galaxy S22 Ultra’s 1/1.33-inch unit. Furthermore, the secondary lens on the phone will, as you’d expect, be a 12MP ultra-wide lens. The third lens on the phone is said to be a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. Again, this sensor is touted to be the same as the S22 Ultra. As for the front optics, it will feature a 10MP selfie snapper.

Other rumors of the phone suggest the inclusion of the flagship – Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ SoC. It is also said to come with a stronger surface for using the S Pen.
