Samsung, the market leader in foldable smartphones, has unveiled new versions of its Z range. While the Z Fold 5 offers minor improvements over the version released last year, the Z Flip 5 undergoes drastic changes.

The external screen of the Z Flip 5 becomes even bigger and more practical🤩

Samsung’s Z Flip range is the most popular with users. Its ability to fold in half to become more compact makes it a pleasant smartphone to use. Despite this, one of its negative points has always been its small external screen. After Oppo and Motorola, Samsung has finally decided to enlarge its external screen to make it more practical.

The new external screen now measures 3.4 inches, almost 3 times larger than that of the Z Flip 5. It now allows you to do more with the smartphone closed, such as reply to messages or navigate using Google Maps. The widgets are also larger and more practical. There’s also a multitasking system to make it easier to navigate between widgets and applications.

The new external screen is infinitely customisable to suit your tastes, much like the classic lock screen.

Finally, there’s an important detail that should improve the durability of this smartphone: thanks to a new hinge, it can now be closed without leaving any gaps. It is still water and dust resistant.

The Z Fold 5 is still built for productivity 🖋️

Like its predecessor, the Z Fold 5 is compatible with the S Pen. This year’s Pen is thinner and now integrated into a compact shell. But that’s not the only thing this smartphone can do to help you be more productive. On the software side, you can now add more applications to the taskbar. It’s also possible to copy and paste with 2 fingers, using one finger to select an item to copy and the other to navigate the interface.
