Galaxy Z Fold 5 hands-on images show few changes
In This Article
Fresh hands-on images of theGalaxy Z Fold 5appear to have hit the internet, offering another good look at a very familiar design.
Samsung has confirmed that it will be holding its next unfoldable-themed Unpacked event on July 26. While the company hasn’t quite spelled it out in as many words, we’re going to be seeing the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5 announced.
Pixel 7 is cheaper than the Pixel 7a for Prime Day
The Pixel 7 is down to just £445 at Amazon – a discount of £154 that makes it £5 cheaper than the Pixel 7a.
Both foldable phones have been extensively leaked, so there’s very little that we don’t know about either. In the case of the larger Galaxy Z Fold 5, we’ve just received a batch of what appear to be hands-on shots of a pre-release test model, courtesy of an anonymous (though you fear not for long)Reddit user.
While the snaps aren’t exactly of the utmost quality in terms of lighting and framing, they’re sufficient to confirm that, yes, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is going to look quite a lot like theGalaxy Z Fold 4(pictured), right down to a very familiar lozenge-shaped camera module.
The shot of the top of the phone folded up would appear to show the fruits of the Galaxy Z Fold 5’s one big design advance – its revised hinge system. According to reports, this new, simpler design will make the two halves of the Fold 5 sit flush together, rather than leaving an awkward angled gap.
Hopefully the foldable will sit flatter in your pocket, and feel better in the hand when using it folded up.
What we don’t see is the mooted reduction to the inner display crease, which has also apparently come about thanks to that hinge design overhaul.
Elsewhere, expect a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 power upgrade, butperhaps notthe dust-proof rating that had been rumoured.
