The Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5 devices deliver unique experiences for every user with sleek and compact designs, countless customization options, and powerful performance. The new Flex Hinge makes the foldable experience possible while offering an aesthetically balanced and solid design.

The foldable devices unlock extraordinary camera capabilities such as FlexCam to take photos from creative angles. With strong performance and an optimised battery powered by the latest processor, the Samsung Galaxy Z series transforms what is possible with a smartphone – open or closed.

“Samsung is revolutionising the mobile industry with foldables by setting the standard and continually refining the experience,” said TM Roh, president and head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics.

“Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5 are the latest devices that prove our commitment to meeting the needs of our customers through innovative technology.”

From content creation on Galaxy Z Flip5’s new Flex Window to seamless multitasking on Galaxy Z Fold5, this series of Galaxy foldables meets and exceeds the distinctive needs of today’s users. Both Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5 are carefully designed to meet durability expectations.

The main screen is equipped with a shock dispersion layer and a redesigned back for a more solid display.

The Galaxy Z Flip5 delivers a stylish, unique foldable experience from a pocket-sized device.

The new Flex Window, now 3.78 times larger than the previous generation, offers a wide range of existing and new capabilities. It provides more customisation options, including informative and graphical clocks that can match the face design of a user’s Galaxy Watch6 series, as well as stylish frames.

In addition, Galaxy Z Flip5’s new Flipsuit Case provides device protection with a changeable NFC card, so users can match their Flex Window design and case design for even more personalization options.

Closed, the device offers more usability than ever before. From the Flex Window, quickly and effortlessly access useful information.

With widgets, users can check the weather, control music playback and listen to their favourite music with media controller or catch up on the latest global stock market updates with the Google Finance widget.

Galaxy Z Fold5

Offering an immersive, large screen and a long-lasting battery in the thinnest, lightest Fold yet, Galaxy Z Fold5 is easy to take anywhere, while delivering the most powerful performance in the Galaxy Z series.

The phone has been a pioneer in transforming everyday productivity through a robust, big screen experience, evolving from multi window and app continuity to a wide range of features including Taskbar, drag and drop, and optimisation of third-party apps.

S Pen Fold Edition introduced in the third generation Fold in 2021, has also been fine-tuned to deliver a superior writing experience on the phone. These features and tools come together to deliver powerful productivity on a large screen and enable users to complete important tasks from anywhere.

The improved taskbar enables dynamic productivity by allowing users to quickly switch between frequently used apps. The new slimmer and more compact S Pen Fold Edition makes real-time annotating and ideation easy while being able to fit more comfortably in the pocket.

The Slim S Pen Case is nearly the same thickness as a regular case for the Fold and is available in a variety of styles and colours so users can carry their S Pens in style.
