1 SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FOLD2 5G
From £1,799, samsung.com
How luxury can a luxury phone be? If you’ve spotted the price above – or, indeed, if you had any exposure to the first generation of Galaxy Z Fold – you’ll know that Samsung’s fantastical flagship slots right in at the top of the market. As well it should: the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G is a totally unconventional feat of engineering. If the first Fold was Samsung’s design team turning a collective fever dream into a real thing, this is Samsung employing an editor to pore through that hastily scrawled dream journal to make it make sense.
The hinged AMOLED screen is the obvious eye-grabber. For this generation Samsung has given the selfie camera a punch hole rather than a notch, increasing available screen real estate from 7.3 inches to 7.6; that’s a lot of room to work with, and makes two- or even three-app split screen multitasking an entirely reasonable thing to do.
Samsung has worked to improve the hinge from the first-gen Fold – it tucks
