As a frontrunner in the technology industry, Samsung brings new developments to its well-loved devices as it released the next generation of its Galaxy Smartphones last August 10, Wednesday.
The Korean-based tech giant changed how people use smartphones with their Fold and Flip series, allowing consumers to match their style preferences and be more productive. Now in their fourth generation, the two smartphones have added features, from the design to the camera, battery pack, personalization, and overall performance.
“Samsung Galaxy foldables are built on the foundation of our openness philosophy, enabling new possibilities with complete customization [both] inside and out. [Created] In collaboration with our world-class partners, the next foldable devices offer unparalleled mobile experiences that meet the needs of our most dynamic users,” said Dr. TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics.
Photography and selfie enthusiasts can do more with the Z Flip 4’s upgraded FlexCam and Quick Shot. It also boasts an upgraded camera with a 65 percent brighter sensor powered by the Snapdragon® 8+ Gen 1 Mobile Platform photos and videos are crisper and more stable, day or night.
One distinct feature of the Z Flip is its compact clamshell design. Samsung prides itself in giving the fourth generation a slimmer hinge, straightened edges, contrasting hazed back glass, and glossy metal frames. Moreover, users can make calls, reply to text messages, and control the SmartThings Scene widget all from the Cover Screen, increasing accessibility and productivity.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 combines Samsung’s collective mobile technology expertise to create a device with increased functionality, whether opened, closed, or in Flex mode. It is the first device to ship with Android 12L, a unique version of Android created by Google for large-screen experiences, including foldable.
A significant development in the Galaxy Z Fold 4 is the multi-tasking feature. The new taskbar provides a layout similar to a desktop, offering access to users’ favorite and recent apps. Multitasking is also more intuitive, thanks to new swipe gestures. Instantly switch full-screen apps to pop-up windows or split your screen in half for more ways to multitask.
Both smartphones have a larger battery capacity and fast-charging abilities to encourage users to do more without worrying about their phones’ longevity.
Samsung isn’t one to forget accessories for upgrades. Joining the Galaxy Z series is Galaxy Buds2 Pro, equipped with a new compact, ergonomic design that is 15 percent smaller with a secure fit engineered to prevent rotation.
Despite Samsung’s bid for innovation, the tech giant also highlights its mission to preserve the environment. The new Galaxy Z series also incorporates ocean-bound plastics into relevant components and 100 percent recycled paper for its packaging.
