Dubai, UAE – August 11, 2022 – Samsung Gulf Electronics today announced that pre-orders for its fourth generation of foldable devices is now available across the UAE. Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4 push the boundaries of smartphone versatility, providing enhanced productivity, customization capabilities, and FlexCam experiences. Built with a bold, sustainably conscious design, Galaxy Z Series is crafted to be both beautiful and environmentally conscious.
“As a testament to Samsung’s dedication to superior craftsmanship, every component in both form factors has been thoroughly analyzed to deliver a truly optimized experience to ensure that every consumer has a device to fit their needs. Providing upgraded tools in terms of performance, superior-quality camera, power, privacy and security – for all our users to enjoy – is a commitment we have and Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold4 promise to deliver to the highest standards,” said Seong Hyun Lee, President, Samsung Gulf Electronics. “In its fourth generation, Galaxy Z series truly continues to break from convention to deliver new, impactful interactions that enhance everyday life.”
Galaxy Z Flip4, the Ultimate Self-expression Tool Inside and Out
The Galaxy Z Flip4 builds on the success of Samsung’s iconic form factor, adding key features, including an upgraded camera experience, a larger battery[1] and expanded customization, while enhancing users’ favorite features, making it the ultimate tool for self-expression. Its compact clamshell design offers unique experiences not available on any other smartphone. Users can shoot hands-free videos or capture full group selfies at various angles by partially folding the Galaxy Z Flip4 to activate FlexCam.[2] These can even be enjoyed on users’ favorite apps[3]. Thanks to Samsung’s partnership with Meta, FlexCam is optimized for the most popular social platforms, including Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook. Users can start high-quality video recording in Quick Shot mode and then seamlessly switch to Flex mode to continue recording hands-free without stopping the video – ideal for content creators and vloggers. With an upgraded camera equipped with a 65 percent brighter sensor[4] powered by the Snapdragon® 8+ Gen 1 Mobile Platform, photos and videos are crisper and more stable – day or night.
Galaxy Z Flip4 can capture, watch and connect longer between charges with the expanded 3,700mAh battery[5]. With Super-Fast Charging, now supported on Z Flip4, it can charge up to 50 percent in around 30 minutes[6], keeping users connected when they’re running low. In addition, Galaxy Z Flip4 is equipped with IPX8[7] water resistance, so users can worry less if they get caught in the rain.
Galaxy Z Fold4, a Multi-tasking Powerhouse with Ultimate Performance
The Galaxy Z Fold4 opens up new possibilities for users by delivering Samsung’s most comprehensive smartphone experience to-date, offering shape-shifting design, immersive displays and PC-like multitasking features, in addition to advanced camera technology and powerful mobile processors. Galaxy Z Fold4 combines Samsung’s collective mobile technology expertise to create a device with increased functionality whether opened, closed, or in Flex mode[8]. Furthermore, it is the first device to ship with Android 12L, a special version of Android created by Google for large-screen experiences, including foldables. Multitasking on Galaxy Z Fold4 is easier than ever, so users can get more done on the move. The new Taskbar[9] provides a layout similar to your PC, offering access to favorite and recent apps. Multitasking is also more intuitive, thanks to new swipe gestures[10]. Users’ multitasking experience is complete with S Pen[11] functionality, enabling on-the-go drawing and notetaking with streamlined storage inside the Standing Cover with Pen case[12]. Games are snappier too thanks to the powerful Snapdragon® 8+ Gen 1 Mobile Platform and hyper-fast 5G[13]. Galaxy Z Fold4 takes stunning photos and videos with an upgraded 50MP wide lens and 30x Space Zoom[14] lens. And with the larger pixel size, a 23 percent brighter sensor[15], and enhanced processing power, users can capture clear images even at night while never worrying about spills as Z Fold4 is also equipped with IPX8[16] water resistance.
Life opens up with Galaxy
Samsung’s commitment to offering a protected experience is a priority as there is no privacy without strong security. In an open world full of opportunities and risks, a user’s Galaxy needs to be secure from the start. That’s why Knox Security System and Knox Vault are essential to that end. Now with Secure bot, one’s Galaxy detects any unauthorized software as soon as the device is turned on and automatically stops it. It will also lock any sensitive operations. With Real Time Kernel and Protection (RKP) and Defeat Exploit (DEFEX), the Galaxy smartphone detects and prevents any unusual behavior or unauthorized changes to the permissions a user gives. And with the Galaxy Threat detection team, security updates are sent across every month to patch vulnerabilities.
