What You Need to Know About the Samsung Z Flip

Samsung needed a do-over when it comes to a foldable phone, and this time it appears that they got it right. Eager to redeem themselves after last year's Fold, the Z Flip has plenty to please consumers who are looking for a foldable phone with plenty of bells and whistles. This latest cutting edge design joins the launch of the much-anticipated Samsung Galaxy S20 models. The foldable Z Flip has a horizontal hinge, allowing the phone to fold like a clam shell, thanks to an Ultra Thin Glass (UTG) display. This is just the tip of the iceberg regarding what the Z Flip has to offer. Read on to find out what you need to know about the new Samsung Z Flip.


The Z Flip appears to be similar to the look and function of the Galaxy S phones, with the obvious advantage of being able to open and close in half. The main display delivers at an impressive 6.7 inches. Plus, users of the Z Flip can use the helpful "Flex Mode," where owners can prop up the phone in an "L" shape and watch video on the top half of the screen. In fact, users can lock the Z Flip into any angle between around 70 and 110 degrees. When folded, there is a small 1.06-inch panel that displays basic information, such as battery level and time.


The Z Flip is going to be available in black and purple color options, loaded with plenty of options. The Z Flip is outfitted with 256GB of storage, 8GB of RAM and Snapdragon 855+ processor. There are two cameras on the rear, which is also the front when the phone is folded, and one in the front. The two rear cameras are 12 megapixel, and one is an ultra-wide camera. The camera in the front is a 10 megapixel. The Z Flip is powered by a 3300mAh battery, which supports wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, and 15W wired charging. Unlike the Samsung Galaxy S models, the Z Flip will be 4G. This new foldable smartphone will be available February 14th for $1,380. Ordering information can most readily be found on the Samsung.com website.

Each of these are available at different price points, which are anticipated to be in the order of $850, $950 and $1,200, respectively. Codenamed Picasso, the S20 features a phenomenal camera upgrade, as well as increased battery life and new screen sizes.
