How does Samsung's hottest new foldable compare to its predecessor?
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 hit shops on August 27, 2021 in the US and UK, and September 10 in Australia. Prices started at $1,799 / £1,599 / AU$2,499 for the 256GB model, moving up to $1,899 / £1,699 / AU$2,649 for 512GB of storage.
While 0.1mm doesn’t sound like a big difference in thickness, it’s more significant when the devices are closed. Samsung’s refined design means that the Galaxy Z Fold 4 runs from 14.2 to 15.8mm thick, while the Galaxy Z Fold 3 goes from 14.4 to 16mm. Both phones only come with an IPX8 rating however, which shows where the whole foldable form factor needs to make up ground on non-foldable flagships in future, even if it is still a unique selling point for Samsung among theBoth foldables are compatible with the same S Pen Fold Edition stylus, though neither finds the space to store for such a tool in their sizeable bodies.Both phones feature dual displays, comprised of a 7.6-inch flexible internal screen and a 6.2-inch Cover Display.
We loved the unique and flexible screen provision of the Galaxy Z Fold 3, and we’d be very surprised if the Galaxy Z Fold 4 doesn’t provide a similarly impressive experience. On the selfie front, both phones have what appear to be identical 4MP under-display cameras, and 10MP Cover Display cameras, although the Fold 4's UDC is harder to spot this time around.
This performance difference might not be readily noticeable in general use, but Samsung is really pushing the Galaxy Z Fold 4 as a productivity-focused tablet replacement. This includes a new taskbar for switching seamlessly between apps. Sure enough, in our Galaxy Z Fold 3 review, we noted that more intensive usage would see us “reaching for the fast charger or a Qi wireless charger before the end of most nights.” Hopefully, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 can make some improvements based on its more efficient processor, but we remain skeptical until we’ve had a chance to put it through its paces.
