Is it time to upgrade from the Z Flip4? Published: September 19, 2023 |5 min read We’ll showcase the shiny new Galaxy Z Flip5 and compare it to its predecessor so you can find the best fit for your lifestyle and budget.   #### Jump to a Section 1.

Is it time to upgrade from the Z Flip4?" on LinkedIn \**This guide was developed by T-Mobile for informational purposes, based on publicly available data. It reflects an editorial perspective to assist readers in comparing smartphone features and specifications sold in our store.*  While the summer of 2023 will likely go down as one of the hottest in history, can the same be said about the release of the [Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5](https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone/samsung-galaxy-z-flip5?sku=610214678898)? This new device in the Z Flip series is being touted as the latest and greatest in the family of Samsung flip phones—but is it the perfect fit for you? We’ll review key features the Z Flip5 vs. Z Flip4, including camera capabilities, battery power, display and more—so you can make the right choice.   ## __Galaxy Z Flip5 vs. Z Flip4__ p__erformance__ The release of the newest phone in the Z Flip-series brings with it a new upgrade in performance, with the Z Flip5 now boasting the custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform for Galaxy (made exclusively for Samsung Galaxy phones), versus the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 on the [Z Flip4](https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone/samsung-galaxy-z-flip4?sku=610214675866). You’ll also notice the Z Flip4 only offers standard Wi-Fi 6, while the Z Flip5 is infused with the latest Wi-Fi 6E technology, which, when paired with T-Mobile's [5G](https://checkpoint.url-protection.com/v1/url?o=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.t-mobile.com%2Fcoverage%2F4g-lte-5g-networks&g=MTYzZjlmNmRjYzNmODU4Ng%3D%3D&h=ZjgxYTJmZjg3OTQwZTE4NzBlZTQ3ZjkxMzY2NWI3ZWZkZTEzNTJjOGEwOGQ4ZGExMzRlOTFiOWM0MDUxYTJjZA%3D%3D&p=YzJ1OnRtb2JpbGV1c2E6YzpvOmNmNDBlMzJmZjk0Y2JlZmM2MzRjMzhiNmNjYTM0NGRmOnYxOnA6Rg%3D%3D) network, opens up a world of possibilities when it comes to performance, download and upload speeds, as well as getting great [5G coverage](https://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/coverage-map). As for storage, you also see a bit of a boost. While both phones feature 8GB of RAM, the Z Flip5 comes standard with 256GB of storage out of the box, with up to 512GB of storage optional. The Z Flip4 only offered 128GB with an option to upgrade to 256GB or 512GB. ## __Galaxy Z Flip5 vs. Z Flip4__ d__esign & display__ If you rush to open the Z Flip5 too quickly without first noticing the outer shell, it may not look that different, since the inner 6.7" FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display may appear a little bit brighter—but remains largely unchanged. The biggest change you’ll notice actually comes *before* the phone is ever opened. The cover screen, called the Flex Window, is now much larger than that of the Z Flip4, boasting a 3.4" Super AMOLED (720 x 748) screen vs. the Z Flip4’s 1.9" AMOLED (260 x 512) display. Now you can reply to messages with a full keyboard, as well as easily make calls, take selfies, use your digital wallet, and enjoy customizable widgets and video wallpapers—it even runs a few apps now, which wasn’t an option on the Z Flip4. You’ll also notice a new super-tight hinge for a truly snug and seamless close. As for colors, the Galaxy Z Flip5 will have a few more options to choose from—eight to be exact—while the Z Flip4 only offers four. New Z Flip5 colors include Mint, Graphite, Cream, Lavender, Grey, Blue, Green and Yellow. ## __Galaxy Z Flip5 vs. Z Flip4__ b__atteries__ In terms of battery power, the Z Flip5 remains unchanged over its predecessor, the Z Flip4. Both feature 3,700mAh batteries, plus 25W Super-Fast Charging, as well as Fast Wireless Charging 2.0. But when armed with that new, more efficient Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 we mentioned earlier—you should see a boost in battery performance over the Z Flip4. FYI: Just like its predecessor, the Samsung Z Flip5 does not include a charger in the box, so you might have to purchase one separately, unless you happen to have an extra one lying around.  ## __Galaxy Z Flip5 vs. Z Flip4__ c__ameras__ The dual-camera setup on the Z Flip5 is the same as that of the ZFlip 4, featuring a 12MP main camera sensor and 12MP ultra-wide shooter, as well as a 10MP selfie camera on the internal screen. While that outer selfie cam didn’t get much of an upgrade, the huge new screen will definitely make it easier to capture higher-quality selfies on the fly. ## __Galaxy Z Flip5 vs. Z Flip4__ p__ricing__ Fortunately, the Z Flip5 won't bring any massive price hikes along for the ride. The starting price of the Z Flip5 is $999.99 and goes up from there, depending on the storage option you choose. Of course, if you're in the market for a Galaxy Z Flip4, it's worth noting that Samsung has since slashed prices on it with the release of the new Z Flip5 device, sweetening the pot.  No matter which device you choose, Samsung’s series of retro-looking flip phones continue to be a fan favorite. Whether you’re looking for a deal on an older option or want all the new bells and whistles the Z Flip5 has to offer—you know you’re getting cutting-edge technology and outstanding performance. Still not sure if it's the right time to [upgrade to the Galaxy Z Flip5](https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone/samsung-galaxy-z-flip5)? ##### __You may also be interested in:__ - [Compare Samsung flip phones](https://www.t-mobile.com/dialed-in/devices/compare-samsung-galaxy-flip-phones) - [Shop Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4](https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone/samsung-galaxy-z-flip4) - [Shop all Samsung phones](https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phones/brand/samsung) - [Samsung phone deals](https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/samsung-phone-deals) - [Trade in your phone](https://www.t-mobile.com/resources/phone-trade-in) *\*Please note that product availability may vary, and some items mentioned may no longer be in stock or available at the time of reading.
