| water_resist = Rated IPX8 for water resistance (can withstand immersion up to1.5 meters for30 minutes) |} The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 (stylized as Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4, and marketed as Samsung Galaxy Fold4 in specific markets) represents a foldable smartphone within the Samsung Galaxy Z series. Announced during the August2022 session of Galaxy Unpacked, it debuted alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4. Officially launched on August25,2022, this model serves as the direct successor to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3.
Design
The exterior screen and rear panel of the Z Fold 4 are protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+, while the foldable interior display utilizes Samsung's exclusive "Ultra-Thin Glass" technology, layered with two protective PET plastic films—the uppermost layer serving as a replaceable screen shield.
This model holds an IPX8 rating for water resistance, though it lacks an official dust resistance certification. The outer chassis is crafted from aluminum, branded by Samsung as the 'Armor Frame'.
Samsung offers the Galaxy Z Fold 4 in four distinct color options: Phantom Black, Beige, Graygreen, and Burgundy.
| Color | Name |
|---|---|
| Phantom Black | |
| Beige | |
| Graygreen | |
| Burgundy |
Hardware
The Galaxy Z Fold 4 is equipped with dual displays: a 6.2-inch external cover screen and a foldable 7.6-inch inner display, both supporting the S Pen Pro and S Pen Fold Edition. Each screen operates at a 120 Hz refresh rate and incorporates variable refresh rate technology to enhance battery efficiency.
Relative to its predecessor, the Z Fold 3, the inner display adopts a slightly more square-like aspect ratio (~6:5 compared to ~5:4), a change driven by the external cover screen being widened by approximately 3 mm. Additionally, both the cover display and the device itself have been marginally shortened. These modifications result in a notably broader external cover display with an aspect ratio close to ~23.1:9 when folded, contrasting with the narrower ~24.5:9 ratio of the Fold 3.
The device integrates 12 GB of RAM and offers storage variants of 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB utilizing UFS 3.1 technology; however, it does not support storage expansion through micro-SD cards.
Powering the device is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset.
The battery capacity is rated at 4400 mAh, consisting of a dual-cell configuration that supports fast charging up to 25 W via USB-C, and wireless charging up to 15 W.
On the rear, the Z Fold 4 features a triple-camera system comprising a 50 MP wide-angle sensor, a 12 MP ultra-wide sensor, and a 10 MP telephoto lens. The wide-angle camera shares its sensor with the S22 and S22+ models, replacing the previous generation’s 12 MP sensor. The telephoto lens has been enhanced from a 2x to a 3x optical zoom capability. For selfies, there are two front cameras: a 10 MP unit on the cover display and a subtler 4 MP under-display camera positioned on the right section of the inner screen, which now boasts nearly twice the pixel density compared to its predecessor.
Software
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 comes pre-installed with Android 12L integrated with One UI 4.1.1. It introduces several new “Labs” functionalities designed for users who frequently utilize multi-window capabilities. Activating these features allows users to swipe inward from an app’s corner to open Pop-Up View, as well as perform a two-finger swipe from the screen edges to instantly switch to multi-window mode. Samsung has committed to providing four major Android OS updates (up to Android 16) alongside five years of security patches, extending through 2027. The release of One UI 5.0 occurred on 7 November 2022. Subsequently, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 received the stable Android 13 update, identified by firmware version F936NKSU1BVK5, which also included the November 2022 security patch addressing nearly forty security issues.
Starting 16 December 2023, the rollout of the One UI 6 update based on Android 14 commenced for all Galaxy Z Fold 4 units. This was followed by the introduction of One UI 6.1, which primarily features new AI enhancements exclusive to this model and subsequent Galaxy Z series releases.
The deployment of One UI 7, built upon Android 15, began on 2 May 2025 for all Galaxy Z Fold 4 devices.
