This year, Samsung sold 73% more foldable phones compared to last year. It was able to move 16 million foldable phones despite the current economic situation. The refinements that Samsung made over the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Flip 3 really put this year’s iterations over the top. These phones were highly praised by reviewers, and that should come as no surprise. Android Headlines posted reviews for both phones. You can see the review for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 here, and the review for Galaxy Z Flip 4 here.
The Galaxy Z Flip 4 won Product Of The Year in Belgium
This is a momentous achievement due to the nature of this badge. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 is the first tech product to win Product Of The Year in Belgium. Most of the products that win this prestigious award are food items and drinks. They’re extremely convenient and lucrative. So, a $1,000 tech item is definitely a change of pace.
What makes this phone so good?
Samsung has been steadily refining its Z Flip series phones since the first generation. While the design hasn’t changed all that much, Samsung was able to refine the internals to make the devices more secure against liquids. This makes the Z Flip 4 one of the most secure foldable phones on the market so far. Samsung is the only company to give its foldables and IP rating. Another piece of the puzzle is the software. Samsung has its own heavily-customized Android skin called One UI. It was able to refine its Android skin to work perfectly with its foldable phones. This makes using these foldable phones rather intuitive. Samsung was able to offer all of this for the price of just $1,000 for the base model. This isn’t something that other foldable phone manufacturers can claim. With these taken into account, it’s no wonder why the Galaxy Z Flip 4 won Product Of The Year.
