Best Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 deals in 2024

Grab these deals to make Samsung's latest flagship foldable easier on your wallet

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 used to be one of the best foldable smartphones back when it first released in 2022. Although new models have come along since then, it's still a strong option in 2024, especially if you're looking to save a lot of money when buying a foldable smartphone. That's thanks to its reliable hardware, fantastic 120Hz displays, impressive internal hardware, great cameras, and excellent software. While we are seeing drastic price reductions on the Z Fold 4, making it a great option if you're looking to buy, there is the issue of availability, with stocks across the internet dwindling heavily, making it harder to come by than ever before.

The Galaxy Z Fold 5 is the latest entry in Samsung's foldable line-up this year. It's still a book-like inner foldable with basically the same design language as last year's foldable, so it looks very similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 4. It does, however, has a few changes that make it slightly better than its predecessor.

Foldable phones are becoming more prevalent as a serious consideration for the average consumer, but up until now, it has been mostly Samsung leading the charge. There have been a ton of different foldables debuting in Asian and European markets, but the competition in North America hasn't been up to par — that is, until now. After a slew of early summer releases, Samsung now has serious threats to its big and small foldables coming from Google, Motorola, and OnePlus. The question is, are those challenges enough to dethrone Samsung as the foldable leader in North America?

These are the best available cases you can buy now to protect and freshen up your Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 unit.

Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 5 is only an iterative upgrade over its predecessor with just a handful of changes. That makes the Galaxy Z Fold 4 still worth considering in 2023 as there's plenty to like about it. It remains one of the best foldables out there, especially now as it's frequently discounted. It's more fragile than the regular slab phones with no moving parts, though, which is why I recommend getting a case for it. The last thing you want to do is get your device cracked or scratched up with day-to-day usage, right?

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 is a flagship phone that offers a foldable display with S Pen support. Notably, though, its box only includes a cable — apart from the phone itself. As a result, you will need to buy a case, charger, and other accessories for your Galaxy Z Fold 4 separately. To help you with the hunt, we've listed some of the best options below.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 vs Z Fold 4: Worth the upgrade?

Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 5 is an iterative upgrade to the Z Fold 4, but is it worth buying over the last-generation model?

By 

Despite facing some competition for the first time, Samsung found a winner with its newest Galaxy Z Fold 5. It's yet another iterative upgrade for Samsung's folding phone, but the latest model solidifies that the company still makes the best folding phone in 2023. However, what does that mean for owners of the Galaxy Z Fold 4? Considering that many features and specs are identical between the Z Fold 5 and the Z Fold 4, it may be hard to justify upgrading. That decision is made even more difficult thanks to the price tag of the Z Fold 5, which remains at $1,800. To help you figure out whether the Z Fold 5 is worth the upgrade, or whether you should save a few bucks by grabbing the Z Fold 4 instead, we've compared them right here.

Although Samsung built its reputation off flagship phones, like the latest S23 Ultra, it has slowly moved its attention to budget and mid-tier smartphones as well. When it comes to handsets, Samsung definitely has a finger on the pulse of what Android users want; the South Korean electronics giant has been launching one banger after the other recently. It's safe to say that Samsung phones consistently make it to the top 3 of Android smartphones, and you're bound to find a Samsung device regardless of whether you’re shopping for a budget phone or a top-end foldable.

Google Fi Wireless started out as an experiment in the Google labs, as Project Fi and, later, Google Fi. It’s an MVNO that had one unique selling point; it could switch between multiple carrier networks depending on the strength of coverage where you were. Then some carrier consolidation later, and it only runs on T-Mobile’s network in the U.S.

We're already 7 days into August, but since today is the first Monday of the month, that means it's time for the latest batch of Android security patches.

Google's Pixel phones aren't the only phones getting a freshly baked build today, though, as Samsung has also pushed new security updates to the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S20 FE, and a couple of foldables.

The proposition of a foldable phone is simple: carry a normal-sized screen when you just want to use a normal smartphone and unfold the device when you need a tablet. Two options on the market right now are Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Google Pixel Fold — at least, if you can manage to get your hands on the latter. Either way, both are some of the best foldables you can buy today (that is until the Z Fold 5 comes out).
