Samsung has finally introduced a refresh to one of the most popular foldable phones in the market. Meet the Galaxy Z Flip 5.
The new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 has a much bigger cover display that is called the Flex Window — about 3x bigger than its predecessor. It can display different widgets, can be used to take selfies and, since it’s bigger now, can show a full QWERTY keyboard.
Meanwhile, the main display is a 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED screen with an adaptive refresh rate of 1-120Hz. Oh, and the gap when folded is now gone.
The device is also fairly sturdy as it uses Corning Gorilla Glass VIctus 2 on both displays. Plus, it has an Armor Aluminum body and is IPX8-rated for being water resistant.
Samsung kept the same camera setup from the Z Flip 4. There’s a 12-megapixel main camera on the back with OIS, joined by a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens. A 10-megapixel selfie camera sits on the top of the main display.
Under the hood, it’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy CPU — a chipset similar to the Galaxy S23 series. It comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB/512GB of storage. Keeping the lights on is a decent 3,700mAh capacity with 25W wired and 15W wireless charging, respectively.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 has a price of Php64,990 and Php71,990 in the Philippines for the 8GB/256GB and 8GB/512GB models, respectively. Those who will pre-order it from July 26 to August 17 to get discounts of up to Php43,000.
