Samsung launches Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4

Samsung unveiled its two new foldable smartphones — the Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Galaxy Z Fold 4 — during its Unpacked Event on Wednesday.

The reveal comes after weeks of leaks about the new generation of foldables and reports that these devices would become an essential part of Samsung's smartphone offering in the future.

Galaxy Z Fold 4 starts at $1800 so they reduced the price a bit.

How much is that in SA prices. 40K? What is the contract price pm. R2K?
I would never pay that price for a phone.

Not sure what the purpose of the flip is really. The fold is slightly understandable as you get screen estate with the fold, but the flip just seems like getting something that's going to break for no other benefit.

Working use cases (according to Samsung).

Meh, not buying the hype

Anything with moving parts and creases will break.
The fold in the screen will eventually wear.
That screen will cost more than the phone to fix or replace.

Stupid flash in the pan gimmick concept.

I think these phones have gone from gimmick to a compelling for certain use cases.

durability being a major concern stil.

But the silent killer of these are the tiny batteries. especially given the large screens. You better charge them up again during lunch time, otherwise these batteries won't last as long as the folding screens.

What phones qualify for the 10k discount

Is the S9 part of it or should just go for the S22 trade in since that includes the S9 ?

Still only a 4400mah battery in the Fold?
