The Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip 3 have already been released, but a new Samsung foldable is expected to be released this year.
Samsung has already had a thrilling year, and more phones are on the way in 2022. We've seen its flagship Galaxy S22 series, as well as the more cheap Galaxy S21 FE, and new foldable Galaxy Z Flip (and Galaxy Z Fold) models are expected to arrive shortly.
Although the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip and the Samsung Galaxy Fold 4 are both foldable phones, they differ in a number ofseveralof several ways. The main distinction is that the Z Fold bends like a book, whereas the Z Flip folds vertically. CNET's Patrick Holland named last year's Z Flip 3 the "most regular foldable available," and the incoming Z Flip 4 is expected to add some welcome updates and adjustments.
We're compiling all of the rumors about the Galaxy Z Flip 4's release date, pricing, new features, and specifications, and we'll keep this post updated as more information becomes available. So far, here's what we've heard. Please keep in mind that while these are rumors, Samsung has not verified any of the specifications.
Release date: August or September is a possibility.
There aren't any reliable rumors on when the Galaxy Z Flip 4 will be released. However, based on the history of the foldable phone (and its Galaxy Z Fold sister), we can estimate when the new handset will be released.
The initial Galaxy Z Flip was unveiled in February 2020, and the Galaxy Z Flip 3 was released in August 2021, therefore there doesn't appear to be a pattern to the Galaxy Z Flip's releases. Samsung appears to have softened the device with the Galaxy Z Fold, which is why the Z Flip went from version 1 to 3 to fit the Z Fold's naming practice.
In September, the 2019 Galaxy Fold and 2020 Z Fold 2 were announced, with the Z Fold 3 following in August 2021. If Samsung plans to release the phones together, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 will most likely be released in August or September with the Galaxy Z Fold 4.
Price: The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Could Be Cheaper
We also haven't heard anything about the Galaxy Z Flip 4's likely pricing. However, we might get some clues from reports concerning the Galaxy Z Fold 4.
According to yeux1122, a Korean leaker, the next Galaxy Z Fold 4 will be less expensive than the Z Fold 3. (In comparison to others, Leaker yeux1122 doesn't have much of a track record.) In February, MacRumors announced that they had properly predicted the iPad Mini 6's release date but were mistaken about the tablet's screen size.) Even though the tipster did not supply any other information, that guess is consistent with the phone's pricing history. In comparison to Fold 2 ($2,000), the Galaxy Z Fold 3 ($1,800) has been reduced in pricing. Last year, the price of the Galaxy Z Flip 3 was reduced to $1,000 from $1,380 for the original Z Flip.
With that in mind, it's not out of the question for Samsung to lower the price of the Z Flip 4. But, like with any other rumor, we won't know for sure until the gadget is officially announced by the firm.
Refinements in design The Galaxy Z Flip 4 is on its way.
According to rumors, Samsung will make a few minor changes to the display on the next Galaxy Z Flip 4, rather than a major overhaul. The Z Flip 4 will have the same 6.7-inch internal foldable display as the Z Flip 3, but the exterior cover screen will be somewhat larger, increasing from 1.83 to 1.9 inches, according to Korean news site The Elec.
Rotating Lenses in Cameras?
The camera hardware of the Galaxy Z Flip 3 was not upgraded, although the future Z Flip 4 might bring some upgrades. According to reports, the upcoming foldable phone would include a rotating camera and a superior under-display camera.
As Dutch blog LetsGoDigital revealed in July, Samsung submitted a patent application with the World Intellectual Property Office for a clamshell phone featuring a spinning camera. The foldable's camera, which is housed on the hinge, has two lenses and can rotate to be utilized while the phone is closed, open, or at many angles in between. This implies the camera might be used to snap selfies and other types of photos.
While a one-size-fits-all camera may sound appealing, it might result in the foldable's hinge being substantially larger, making the phone itself larger and thicker.
Samsung has tested variants of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 with an upgraded under-display camera that can also be utilized on the cover screen, according to speculations from Korean leaker yeux1122. However, it is also believed that the business has tested phone models featuring a perforated, punch-hole cutout display.
While we still have a few months till the Galaxy Z Flip 4 is maybe revealed, we have some useful facts to pass the time. You can learn more about the Galaxy Z Fold 4 from speculations, as well as CNET's evaluations of Samsung's newest flagship phones, the Galaxy S22 and S22 Ultra.
