Samsung officially launched the new iteration of its foldable smartphone – Galaxy Z Fold 4 at the Galaxy Unpacked Event on August 10. Today is the last day to pre-book the smartphone and it will start reaching early buyers from August 26.
Although the Galaxy Z Fold 4 is available at a heavy discount through pre-bookings, its original cost is sky-high. So should you settle for last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 3 for a lower price tag and with the same design? Are the improvements that Fold 4 brings important?

Well, in my opinion, you should definitely go for Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 over the Galaxy Z Fold 3 as it brings a bunch of upgrades. At first glance, you might have also found it similar to the previous version but the company has greatly improved it internally.
In this article, I’m going to tell you my 3 reasons for choosing the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 over the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3.
Galaxy Z Fold 4 Camera:
The camera is always the most important thing we notice in any smartphone. The back of both models looks completely similar, nobody can identify any difference. However, it features a 50MP primary camera, which is great when compared to the older 12MP.
Samsung also says that this camera is improved to provide more detailed and better low-light imaging. In addition, there’s a 3x telephoto camera, which is an upgrade from the older 2x zoom. This summarizes the 30x digital zoom versus the up to 20x you used to get earlier.
Galaxy Z Fold 4 Display:
There’s a minor yet important improvement in the Galaxy Z Fold 4’s cover screen. It is wider than the previous model so that you can perform most of your tasks with ease without unfolding your phone. It’s great for watching videos, web browsing, etc.
Not only this but this change has also impressively affected the main screen or the unfolded screen. The size of this screen is still 7.6 inches but it now looks more squarish than the Fold 3, increasing the viewing area of the device.
Galaxy Z Fold 4 Software:
Most interestingly, this year, the company has introduced a large-screen specialized OS for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 – Android 12L-based One UI 4.1.1. This adds a few more tweaks and improvements to the device’s system so that you can use the foldable with ease.
The most noticeable feature in Taskbar. It allows you to multitask better than any other smartphone. You can now instantly switch from full screen to split screen and pop-up view. It automatically shows you some commonly used apps at the bottom of your screen, just tap on it, and you are done.
Other improvements:
These are just some key differences but Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 comes with a lot more upgrades than the Galaxy Z Fold 3. It offers a powerful battery that has outperformed Galaxy S22 Ultra in a test. Also, it is the first foldable phone that is waterproof.
