Hands-on video and first impressions of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Flip 5 foldables | Digit

Samsung has just dropped their latest foldable phones, the Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5, and they’re seriously cool. Here’s our first impression hands-on with both the gadgets Samsung unveiled today:

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5: Continues winning formula with more improvements

The Z Fold 5 is slimmer and lighter than ever before, making it a breeze to carry around. It’s only 13.4 mm thick when folded and weighs in at a mere 253 gm. But it’s not just about looks – the display is brighter too, with a peak brightness of 1750 nits. 

Under the hood, it’s got the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, the same one you’ll find in the latest flagships. This means it’s got the power to handle anything you throw at it, from gaming to multitasking. It also has a larger vapour cooling chamber, so it stays cool even when you’re pushing it to the limit.

The camera set is pretty impressive too, with a 12 MP ultrawide lens, a 50 MP primary lens with OIS Stabilisation, and a 10 MP OIS 3X telephoto lens. And thanks to the new processor, the image quality is even better than before. 

The S-Pen has been slimmed down by 40%, making it more compact and easy to use. And the Z Fold 5 comes in three cool colours: icy blue, phantom black, and cream. 

But what’s really cool is the flex hinge technology. The hinge is designed like a teardrop module, which makes the crease on the foldable screen less visible. Plus, it’s got IPX 8 water resistance and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the front and back, so it can handle a bit of rough and tumble.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5: Bigger, better cover display

Now, let’s talk about the Z Flip 5. This foldable phone is super slim – just 6.9 mm thick when unfolded and 17.1 mm thick when folded. It also features the same flex hinge fold as the Z Fold 5, which means the crease is less visible. 

The Z Flip 5 has a massive cover display that you can use to swipe between widgets and access your quick settings. And like the Z Fold 5, it’s powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, so it’s super smooth and fast.
