Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4

The fold’s IPX8 water resistance means the Fold4 can handle dirt, and Samsung promises its hinges are good for over 200,000 folds.

It’s a beast under the hood, with a fancy camera, fast wired and wireless charging, and Qualcomm’s latest powerhouse for 2022.

Samsung has added Windows-style convenience to the taskbar so you can easily switch between apps and multitask with just a few taps on the screen.
