The Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 don’t look like huge evolutions vs last year’s models, but you can expect Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 performance. That hopefully also means better battery life, while Samsung’s hinge tech has also reportedly been improved. Of course, these smartphones (especially the Galaxy Z Fold 4) won’t be cheap.
