The Samsung Galaxy Z series—marketed as Samsung Galaxy Foldables in select regions—is a collection of foldable smartphone devices produced by Samsung Electronics since 2019. This series is included within the broader Samsung Galaxy lineup. Devices in the Z series operate on Android and feature flexible displays. The lineup includes the Z Fold category, which employs a book-style folding mechanism,[1] as well as the Z Flip series, characterized by a clamshell or "flip phone" style fold.[2]
History
Template:Timeline of release years In 2018, Samsung unveiled the prototype called Galaxy X prior to launching their first foldable device under the name Galaxy Fold in 2019.[3] The introduction of the Galaxy Z Flip in early 2020 marked the official inclusion of foldable smartphones into the Galaxy Z family.[4] Unlike the original Fold, the Z Flip features a vertical folding design and incorporates a hybrid glass layer known as "Infinity Flex Display".[5][6][7] The second iteration of Samsung's inward-folding design, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, introduced in its 5G variant, boasts a considerably larger external display compared to its predecessor, a folding screen with a fluid refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, reduced bezel size, and enhanced camera capabilities.[8]
In March of 2022, Samsung initiated a rebranding effort for its Fold and Flip models within Ukraine, Moldova, and the Baltic countries (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania), removing the "Z" designation from product names. This decision was influenced by geopolitical developments related to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine,[9][10] as the letter "Z" had become associated with Russian military symbolism and pro-war messaging endorsed by Russian authorities.[11][12]
