Go bold with the Galaxy Fold5
A dual display like none other
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 isn’t just a phone, it’s a versatile mobile platform unto itself. Starting with the 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2x Cover Screen and 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, this is already a very capable device before you even unfold it. There is nothing unusual, yet everything unique about this phone’s ability to do things in ways other conventional smartphones simply can’t.
That’s why the 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2x Main Screen continues to impress. It is still as bright and responsive as you would expect, allowing you to multitask with as many as three apps open simultaneously. It’s now easier to turn compatible apps into windows you can drag anywhere on the screen, adding yet another multitasking layer on top. Popular user-friendly features return to keep things simple, like the App Dock and Multi-window, as well as newer ways to group two apps together for instant split-screen layouts.
Whether folded open or clamped shut, a new smoother hinge helps close the gap to make the Galaxy Z Fold5 look and feel thinner all around. That not only makes it easier to slide into your bag or pocket, it also helps when you want to watch your favourite content on the device. A lighter frame helps you do that, whether cradled in your hands or propped up hands-free.
Taking notes, making a case
As with previous Galaxy Fold devices, the Fold5 is compatible with select versions of Samsung’s S Pen, namely the S Pen Fold Edition or S Pen Pro. Neither pen comes included with the phone, but they are accessories uniquely built for the Galaxy Fold because other S Pen models may not work quite the same way on this device. With these special pens in tow, you can expect precision and responsiveness in whatever you write, draw, paint or edit on this foldable.
If you need a place to put the pen, consider a case with a built-in holster. Samsung, among others, has released protective cases for the Galaxy Z Fold5 that can accommodate the Fold Edition pen to make it convenient to put away when you don’t need it. Even better, a special place for your pen means less of a chance of misplacing or losing it.
Other cases for the Fold5 deliver similar conveniences, be they for propping up the device when folded it out or a rear strap to slip through your fingers for phone calls—all without adding much to the phone’s overall thickness. These cases also shouldn’t interfere with the phone’s wireless charging ability, though results may vary depending on the design.
A developing camera system
The Galaxy Z Fold5 doesn’t skimp out on cameras with a total of five cameras to shoot with. Both the Cover and Main screens keep their respective selfie cameras, along with the three laid out in the back that are accessible regardless of whether the phone is folded open or closed. All the cameras stay in familiar territory as far as specs go, but better image sensors and software should yield improved photos and video.
As a foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold5 is uniquely suited to capturing images in various ways. It makes it much easier to capture a selfie with the rear cameras when flipping the phone open to see a live preview on the Cover Screen. You can also just as easily prop it up somewhere and do a countdown to capture the kind of creative image or video you have in mind. The sturdy hinge offers a wide range of angles, leaving it up to you to figure out how to best frame a memorable image.
Ready to work or play
The Galaxy Z Fold5 is a robust device built to handle what you need to do with it. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor ensures you get the power you need, while the 12GB of RAM and 256GB or 512GB of storage provide the space to keep everything in place. Improved battery performance also keeps the lights on longer, only adding to the many conveniences involved in pulling this phone out of your bag or pocket.
It is also ready to connect with 5G connectivity, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3 and the ability to quickly see and integrate with other compatible Samsung products. This could well be more than just a phone, it could be the smart home hub that stays with you at all times.
