But could the small step for the Fold lineup become a giant leap for the foldable segment. It is still only matched by the Huawei Mate X3 with its IPX8 rating, while its Armor aluminum frame and Victus glass exterior are the most reassuring in the market. The chipset has been upgraded to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy model with higher CPU and GPU clocks, while storage has been boosted to UFS 4.0.
It has a clever under-display 4MP camera to avoids interruptions, and it supports S-Pen input.
In fact, the new slimmer S-Pen case, while not part of the phone itself, might be one of the bigger upgrades we are getting this year. Connectivity: 5G; eSIM; Dual SIM; Wi-Fi 6e; BT 5.3, aptX HD; NFC. Misc: Fingerprint reader (side-mounted); stereo speakers; Bixby natural language commands and dictation, Samsung DeX (desktop experience support), Samsung Pay (Visa, MasterCard certified), Ultra Wideband (UWB) support. Has Samsung focused on under-the-hood tweaks that improve the user experience without making the specs sheet?
The Galaxy Z Fold5 ships into one of those eco-friendly, but severely under-equipped boxes containing the phone and a USB-C cable.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5: what we know so far
As usual, the company is keeping things close to the vest, but a series of leaks have given us a good idea of what to expect. Reports claim that Samsung is finally ready to fix this with a new hinge design that will close down flat. The new hinge addresses the other complaint with the Galaxy Z Fold series (and most of its competitors) – the crease in the middle of the display.
It’s very much certain that the Galaxy Z Fold5’s internal screen will support S Pen input, but the phone won’t have a built-in slot for the stylus. We haven’t heard of any relevant upgrades to the 12MP ultra wide and 10MP tele lens from the Z Fold4, nothing on the selfie cameras either. Of course, the new chipset’s more powerful ISP and fine-tuned software could have a notable impact on image quality, but that is a question that will have to wait for the review.
Samsung US is expected to schedule a separate Unpacked event for the new Galaxy devices for the North American markets. This points to one of two things: 1) the global launch of the Z-series will be delayed (unlikely) or 2) the second event is timed to coincide with the start of open sales (more likely).
By the way, Samsung US is already accepting pre-registrations, which don’t require any commitment beyond signing up with your email and you will get $50 credit for your troubles.
This is for Europe, of course, but even North America may not be spared (even though the US and Canada doged the S23 series price hike).

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 review
The latest One UI brings improved multi-tasking, updated file sharing, better camera controls, and numerous minor tweaks and tricks to enhance your experience. It’s a good example of a feature that works identically on both the inside and the cover display, depending on whether the Z Fold5 is open or not.
S Pen support aside, Samsung has done an exceptional job of aligning the user experience between the two where it makes sense to minimize breaking the general UX flow.
The lock screen is also shared between the two displays in pretty much all of its aspects, including the clock style, widget selection, and notification logic.
The Home screen and App drawer, however, are superb examples of Samsung seamlessly separating out customization for the two panels. One of the Fold5’s main strengths is the ability to have several apps displayed simultaneously in a number of configurations and it’s something other foldables can’t match. For example, the simpler dual-split can either be horizontal or vertical, and no other phone seems to be allowing a top-and-bottom view. Some apps won’t cooperate fully, and some rare ones will outright refuse to go into this mode. To address that, however, One UI does include a Labs tab inside the Advanced features menu, with a toggle switch that can force multi-window and pop-up view on any app even if the developer didn’t include support. It is important to note that some apps won’t necessarily be able to run concurrently while in this mode. Some apps that do real-time updating might do it slower or put it on pause while in a small window and not in focus. You can pile up to five of these on top of a three-way split, making for a total of 8 active apps at the same time.
You can freely resize and drag these individual floating windows around and even set their transparency, although in most cases, that just adds chaos. If you collapse multiple apps in this way, they will end up grouped in a folder-like manner, which helps keep things tidy.
If you still find yourself wanting more freedom and an even more PC-like experience, the Z Fold5 does include Samsung DeX support, both wired and wireless to a monitor or TV, as well as a Windows PC, with a specific client.
In this sense, Flex View is just a Samsung marketing term for triggering behavior already baked into modern versions of Android, specifically designed to make apps more aware of the current state of foldable displays, allowing them to adapt their UI.
The Gallery app simply dedicates a trackpad-like touch area for navigating back and forward between images to the bottom half. A bit awkward and with limited usability, which honestly seems to often end up being the case with Flex View implementations. This is definitely useful for taking both selfies and shorts with the main camera while the phone is sitting on a flat surface. It holds a set of app shortcuts in two groups – ones you add there yourself and ones that it picks from your recent usage, though you can disable the latter.
If you have 8 or fewer icons in the Apps panel, it will shrink to a single row saving you some screen estate. The Adreno 740 GPU is clocked at 719MHz in the Galaxy phones, compared to 680MHz in the regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 2-powered smartphones. Overall, the Galaxy Z Fold5 has the best hardware available to the mass market and it cools relatively well considering its form factor. The performance on the foldable display is excellent, we never found a game to make the device warm enough to throttle, which is a very good thing.
