Is the Galaxy Z Flip4 worth it over a regular flagship?

If a phone that folds small matters more to you than battery life and a telephoto camera, yes. Otherwise a slab flagship gives more endurance and zoom for the same class of money.

How does it compare with the Z Flip3?

The Flip4 has a bigger battery, the newer Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and a slightly slimmer hinge. The Flip3 is cheaper but slower and shorter-lasting.

How long does the battery last?

The 3,700mAh cell typically gets most users through a light day. Heavy video, gaming or camera use will need a top-up.

Does it support 5G and wireless charging?

Yes, it has 5G, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, and it charges wirelessly as well as by USB-C.

The phone and a USB-C cable. There is no charger in the box, so you need your own adapter.

Is the screen durable?

The main display is flexible glass with a factory screen protector, and the phone is water-resistant. It is still more delicate than a rigid slab screen, so a case helps.

Our take on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 SM-F721U 128GB Graphite

The Galaxy Z Flip4 is Samsung's clamshell foldable, a 6.7-inch AMOLED phone that folds in half to a pocketable square with a 1.9-inch cover screen. It runs on the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 with 5G, Wi-Fi 6 and a 12MP dual rear camera plus a 10MP front camera. The hinge and crease are the main trade-offs against a conventional flagship, and the 3,700mAh battery is small for the class. It suits people who want a compact folding phone and self-standing camera more than all-day battery life.
