The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 (stylized as Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4, sold as Samsung Galaxy Flip 4 in certain territories) is a clamshell-styled, Android-based, foldable smartphone manufactured, developed and marketed by Samsung Electronics, as part of its Galaxy Z series. First released in August 2022[5] succeeding the popular Galaxy Z Flip 3 as Samsung's third-generation Z Flip model, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 featured minor exterior changes like reduced bezels, and redesigned mechanical gears resulting in a slimmer hinge.[6] Inside, the phone used a Snapdragon 8+ processor in place of the previous power-hungry Snapdragon 888, which combined with a physically larger battery and faster (25 W, up from 15 W) charging speed was an attempt to fix the highly criticised poor battery life of its predecessor. The primary camera sensor was also upgraded.[6]

History

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 was succeeded by the Galaxy Z Flip 5 on July 26, 2023.

Design

Display

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 continues to have similar screen specifications from its predecessor: a 6.7-inch inner display with a 120 Hz variable refresh rate and a 1.9-inch cover display.

The device has 8 GB of RAM, and either 128 GB, 256 GB or 512 GB of UFS 3.1 flash storage, with no support for expanding the device's storage capacity via micro-SD cards.

The Z Flip 4 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.

The device's included battery is a 3700 mAh dual-cell unit that fast charges via USB-C up to 25 W, or via wireless charging up to 10 W.

The Z Flip 4 features two rear cameras, including a 12 MP wide-angle camera and a 12 MP ultra-wide camera. It has a 10 MP front-facing camera at the top of the display.

Software

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 was shipped with Android 12L and Samsung's custom One UI 4.1.1 skin.[11] It has promised 4 OS upgrades and 5 years of security updates for the device (with support ending within 2027).[12]
