Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold4, both the Z Flip3 and Flip4 look virtually identical–with practically no changes to the aspect ratio of its 6.7-inch foldable display. The Galaxy Z Flip4, however, is slightly thicker to accommodate a bigger 3700mAh battery.
The increase in battery capacity is one of the biggest changes on the Galaxy Z Flip4, which should theoretically offer a longer battery life compared to its predecessor. Together with the bump in battery capacity, the Galaxy Z Flip4 now supports 25w wired charging and 15w wireless charging. Â Other changes with the Galaxy Z Flip4 include a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, up to 512GB internal storage, and a new 12-megapixel main camera with large 1.8um pixels.
Just like our sentiments with the Galaxy Z Fold4, those who are using the Galaxy Z Flip3 can skip the Z Flip4 since the upgrades are very incremental. However, those who aim to own their first foldable phone can consider the Galaxy Z Flip4 thanks to its relatively accessible pricing.
