Samsung Galaxy Z Flip: 6 features


and facts to know before buying


Only $1,380? We’ll take two. BY MICHAEL SIMON

S


amsung wasted little time in
getting to the good stuff at its first
Unpacked event of 2020. Right off
the bat, it took the wraps off the
Galaxy Z Flip (go.pcworld.com/zflp), its
second folding phone and the first one that’s
actually kind of affordable. Seriously, it’s
cheaper than the Galaxy S20 Ultra (which has
a starting price of $1,400; see page 7).
As far as the specs go, the Z Flip isn’t a

midrange device like the Motorola razr
(go.pcworld.com/mrzr). Along with the Flip’s
6.7-inch 1080p display, the Flip has a very
speedy processor. I’m not sure exactly which
chip it is, but the specs say it’s a 7nm, 64-bit
Octa-Core Processor with a max speed of
2.95GHz, which is actually faster than the
S20. It also boasts 256GB of storage and
8GB of RAM. Its 3,300mAh battery seems
small, however.
