Galaxy Z Fold 4 Specs and Information

The new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 smartphone was officially released August 26, 2022. While there haven’t been any massive innovations since the Fold 3, Samsung has certainly made some improvements. And some experts are even calling it Samsung’s most advanced folding phone yet.

Here’s everything you need to know about the specs, features, pricing, warranty, and more.

Let’s start with size. It can be viewed at 6.2 inches, 6.8 inches, or 7.6 inches, depending on the configuration and whether or not it’s folded. As tech writer Steve Hogarty explains, “this is as much a productivity-focused tablet as it is a phone, folding out like a book to form an almost-square shaped screen that works with a stylus and supports multitasking with up to three apps open at once, and even desktop-style windows you can drag around the home screen.”

This Samsung Fold has “a 7.6 inch QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Infinity Flex Display with 120Hz Adaptive Refresh Rate” for stunning visuals that are perfect for gaming.

There’s “50MP Wide, 12MP Ultra Wide, 10MP Tele 3x Optical Zoom / 30X Space Zoom rear resolution and 4MP UDC, 10MP front resolution.”

It has an ultra-wide camera with a built-in scene optimizer that automatically enhances colors for eye-popping pictures.

There’s a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor with up to 3.2GHz. It offers three different storage options of 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. There’s a 4,400 mAh battery for plenty of juice. It has 12GB of RAM. And finally, it offers 4G LTE, 5G, and Wi-Fi 6E wireless options.

For starters, there’s hands-free video where you simply set the phone down at a good angle, allowing you to sit back and relax. As we mentioned earlier, the large, nearly square-shaped screen functions more like a tablet than a phone, which is perfect for multitasking. With it you can launch up to three apps simultaneously and swiftly move between windows to get more work done quickly.

The multi-view feature lets you toggle between texts so you can check emails with full visibility, giving you nearly the same capabilities as a computer.

This phone also features a multi-camera system, including a 12MP ultra-wide camera, a 50MP wide-angle camera, and a 10MP 3x optical zoom telephoto camera. And the cutting-edge hardware and software allow you to take crisp, vivid pictures day or night.

In terms of materials, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 is built like a tank. The cover screen and back cover feature Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+. In addition, the phone and its hinges are reinforced with Armor Aluminum. and the main screen consists of ultra-thin glass. All of these are designed to withstand plenty of abuse.

And, although sold separately, you can add an S Pen stylus for maximum precision that has the look and feel of a real pen or pencil.

This Samsung Fold comes in gray green, phantom black, beige, and burgundy (this is a Samsung.com exclusive).

Pricing starts at $799.99. And Samsung also has financing options where you can pay $22.22 a month for 36 months.

While a Galaxy Z Fold 4 doesn’t cost as much as pricer phones like an iPhone 13, $800 is still a hefty price tag. But is it worth getting an extended Samsung Warranty?

Yes, we usually suggest getting one for three reasons. First, the manufacturer's Samsung warranty only lasts one year and covers limited issues like defects in material, design, and workmanship. If you encounter an issue after the one-year coverage has lapsed, or if it’s because of a drop, spill, and so on, it’s your responsibility to handle the repair or replacement. That means the money comes out of your pocket. But if you have an extended warranty, you can rest easy knowing most issues will be covered for total peace of mind about your investment.

Second, an extended Samsung warranty from Upsie is more affordable than you may think. Upsie Smartphone Subscription Plans, for example, cost just $9.99 a month for full, comprehensive coverage. Despite the low price, Upsie offers all the comprehensive coverage you expect. In addition, Upsie has a $0 cracked screen deductible!

And if you need to make a claim, it’s quick and easy. Simply fill out an online form on Upsie.com or call a claims expert 24/7/365. They’ll quickly approve your claims and help you schedule a local repair. When you combine the robust coverage, affordability, and convenience of making claims, an extended Samsung warranty from Upsie is always a good idea.
