Samsung Galaxy Fold 5 - The 5th gen foldable smartphone

Samsung Fold series replaced the most loved Samsung Note series as people wanted more than just a stylus and a foldable display was a perfect innovative replacement for the same. This year Samsung launched the 5th Generation of their most-selling premium foldable smartphone which is disrupting the foldable smartphone market for the last 5 years. Samsung Z Fold 5 has been launched and it does have some upgrades at least on paper. The main reason for this sarcastic blame is that Samsung has used the same design as the previous one. Samsung Fans were eagerly waiting for Fold 5 new design but they need to wait a bit more as Samsung Galaxy Fold 5 is following the same design language but let us talk about whats new comes with Fold 5. The Samsung Galaxy Fold 5 features a new powerful Snapdragon 8 gen 2 chipset which is capable of higher performance with greater efficiency. Apart from the chipset the hinge mechanism also gets updated which helps the fold 5 to completely fold without leaving any gaps in between which makes the smartphone thinner and more durable, The peak brightness of the Samsung Galaxy Fold 5 has been increased from 1000 nits to 1750 nits which will automatically improve the overall visibility of the smartphone. Other than these few important upgrades everything with the Fold 5 is the same as its predecessor. The display and the aspect ratio remain unchanged as it offers a primary 6.2 inch cover display and 7.6 inches of Dynamic AMOLED 2X display(unfolded). Both the displays get the latest Victus 2 protection. The triple camera module on the back of fold5 includes 50MP wide camera,12MP ultrawide camera and 10MP optical telephoto camera and for selfies 10MP camera on the cover display and 4MP under-display camera is there for rescue. The same 4700Mah battery is enough to power the fold 5 as Snapdragon 8 gen 2 chipset is quite efficient.

What's new with Samsung Galaxy Flip 5

Samsung has responded to the suggestion of its user base by increasing the cover display size of Flip 5 phones making it more functional. The new hinge mechanism is also bundled with the Flip 5 which allows the smartphone to get completely folded due to this thickness of the Flip 5 also got reduced. Snapdragon 8 gen 2 for Galaxy is also there to power the all-new Samsung Galaxy Flip 5. So the major two upgrades for Samsung Flip 5 is a new snapdragon 8 gen 2 chipset and a 3.4 inches bigger and more functional cover display with gorilla glass victus 2 protection. Apart from above mentioned upgrades the Flip 5 also follows the same path as its big brother - an inheritance from the predecessor as other specs of Samsung Galaxy Flip 5 remain the same. The spec sheet of Samsung flip 5 is as follows - Z Flip 5 comes with a primary 3.6 inches and 6.7 inches of unfolded foldable dynamic AMOLED 2X display, with a 120 Hz of refresh rate. 12MP+12MP dual camera set-up clicks very vibrant pictures and the back camera can act as a front camera all thanks to its foldable display. The battery and charging capabilities remain the same as the 3700Mah battery is bundled with a 25Watt charging.
