What the reviewers said

Trusted Reviews UK

4/5Aug 7, 2023

An iterative upgrade that fixes the hinge gap and adds better app support, but is nearly identical to the Fold 4 and costs more.

  • Large 7.6-inch foldable display
  • Gapless fold finally solves the hinge gap issue
  • Powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 performance
  • Better app support than other book-style foldables
  • Slimmer and lighter than the Z Fold 4
  • Very similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 4
  • £100/$150 price increase over predecessor
  • Identical camera setup to the Z Fold 4
  • Central crease still clearly visible
  • Narrow tall 6.1-inch cover display

Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
