At first glance the Galaxy Z Fold 4 won’t be apparently different from the Galaxy Z Fold 3, but there are in fact some neat quality of life changes done to the new model.
The Galaxy Z Fold 4 will supposedly be lighter, at 263 grams, which is about 10 grams less than its predecessor. And it’ll also be slimmer, thanks in part to a redesigned, slimmer hinge, and the fact that its display will be shorter and a bit wider, making it a tad better for consuming content. This, of course, will slightly change its display aspect ratio.
The fingerprint button that was built into the Z Fold 3’s power button will be moved under the display of the Z Fold 4, so that’s neat. And even cooler – it’s supposedly going to be a double-sided fingerprint sensor that will work on both the small outer display and on the inner display somehow.
We’ve also heard reports of a less pronounced crease – where the Z Fold 4’s folding display actually folds in half – that line should be less visible now. Other than that, it’s going to be a similar, premium, book-like foldable phone (or pretty much a tablet, when unfolded) as before.
As for the color options, we expect nothing flashy – the Galaxy Z Fold 4 will come in black, gray, and beige. Okay, beige might be a bit flashy and perhaps not everybody’s favorite “cool” color, but to be fair, anything is better than just boring black and grey, right?
