Black Friday is just around the corner, but you don’t have to wait until then to snag a great deal on a flagship foldable smartphone. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 has dropped back down to $800, a reduction of $200 (20 percent) for a model with 256GB of internal storage. It’s the best price we’ve seen for this foldable to date.
Considering that the Galaxy Z Flip 5 has only been on the market for a few months, this is a solid deal. In our review, we gave the Galaxy Z Flip 5 a score of 88 and consider it to be the best flip-style foldable that’s widely available in North America and Europe.
The Galaxy Z Flip 5’s file folder-shaped external screen is one of its most distinct features, allowing it to stand out from other foldables. The 3.4-inch Flex Window with 60Hz refresh rate and 720 x 748 resolution is larger compared to previous models, making it easier to view information at a glance. This screen also allows easy access to widgets such as Timer, Stopwatch, and Samsung Health, while built-in support for apps including Google Maps and WhatsApp. You can even watch YouTube and Netflix on this screen without adjusting the settings too much.
Moreover, the new Flex Hinge on the Galaxy Z Flip 5 eliminates the gap between the two halves of the 6.7-inch internal display. This, combined with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset, ensures solid performance. Despite these features, the battery life is still relatively short compared to other Android devices, and users may need to spend some time adjusting the settings to get the most out of the foldable.
