Get a $50 Samsung store credit when you pre-order what we expect will be a Galaxy Z Fold 5 or Z Flip 5 smartphone.
You don’t have to actually put down any money. Just provide your name, email address, and phone number to reserve a mystery product, and receive $50 toward one eligible device (including, it seems, the very item you’re pre-ordering).
This limited-time offer doesn’t specify which devices it covers. The fine print only mentions “upcoming Galaxy phones and/or Galaxy Watches and/or Galaxy Tabs.” But the invitation to “join the flip side” and graphics highlighting horizontal- and vertical-folding screens is a pretty big hint.
Samsung will host this year’s Unpacked event on July 26 in Seoul, Korea, where the tech titan plans to unveil “an all-new Galaxy.” Which, by the looks of it, is the latest version of its foldable phone.
Based on potential new handset images leaked online, it looks like the Z Flip 5 cover screen grew from 1.9 inches to 3.4 inches—featuring a 720-by-748-pixel resolution display that terminates above two cameras and a flash. There’s also been talk of a new hinge design for a less sizable gap between the folded halves, and a series of color options (including black/dark gray, off-white, light green, and lavender).
On the other hand, little seems to have changed for the Z Fold 5, which, according to a leaked spec sheet, will retain its inner and outer screen sizes, resolutions, and max refresh rates, as well as 12GB of RAM, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, 4,400mAh battery, and IPX8 rating. There may be some camera upgrades and an improved hinge, but don’t expect much transformation.
