The biggest change about the new Galaxy Z Fold5 5G is its new Flex hinge design that makes the phone completely flat when folded and over 2mm thinner than the Galaxy Z Fold4 5G. Samsung says that the phone is now also lighter by around 10g than before.
Apart from that, the new foldable is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 — the same chipset that powers the Galaxy S23 series devices and comes with improved cameras, battery life and more.
Samsung has launched the Galaxy Z Fold5 5G at a starting price of $1,799. And, it comes in three colour options — Ice Blue, Phantom Black and Cream.
