The improvements range from small to sizable with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5, but it remains a great device as Google enters the foldable fray.
When Samsung delved into the world of foldable smartphones years ago, it took on the challenge of bringing back one of the most popular form factors in the mobile phone market in an era where phones are so much more than just phones.
Knowing that, Samsung appears to have chosen incremental upgrades for this next generation versus larger changes that make the Galaxy Z Fold5 feel like it’s resting on its laurels a tad or a feeling within Samsung of confidence in their productivity-focused foldable as the market widens. That shouldn’t sound wholly discouraging, though. The Fold4 represented a large leap forward versus the Fold3 when it released last year, and while Paste didn’t receive the Fold4 for review, I’ve had a good amount of time messing around with a friend’s Fold4 to understand that fact.
Pictures and video get a boost in quality as well, with images feeling just a bit crisper compared to the Fold4 and the ability to shoot 8K video at 30fps. Games and streaming video run smoothly and the new hand gestures that let users window fullscreen apps quickly and enter side-by-side app mode with a swipe are welcome additions.
