The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 was among the finest folding smartphones of 2022, and many believe the Galaxy Z Fold 4’s successor will be even better this year. The Galaxy Z Fold 5 is anticipated to be unveiled by the business later this month, and numerous leaks over the previous few weeks have already made quite a deal about it known, including some of its important specifications. New hands-on photos have now exposed a significant design improvement that might make the Z Fold 5 significantly more appealing than its predecessor.
Images shared on Twitter from tipper @AhmedQwaider888 appear to show that the hinge on the Fold 5 may be what distinguishes it most from Fold 4 in terms of design.

The Galaxy Z Fold 5 tweet was then removed, but Android Police preserved the photographs for posterity. The images appear to indicate that the new hinge will collapse almost totally flat when the phone is folded up. If the photographs are genuine, the next device may represent a significant advance over the Z Fold 4 and the preceding foldable, which have a large gap between them when folded. It would be fascinating to see whether Samsung uses a comparable hinge with the Z Flip 5 since it might give the gadget some much-needed design enhancements.
Although the Galaxy Z Fold 5’s gap has been narrowed, which is obviously a good thing, it’s not clear if this will also help to lessen the on-screen crease, which has long been one of the main problems of foldable devices.
Not all of the news surrounding the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is positive, though. The device might not have a genuine IP58 rating for dust and water resistance, claims reliable tipper Ice Universe. Potential consumers will be extremely disappointed because earlier rumors claimed that the Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 would both be IP58 dust- and water-resistant.
It will be fascinating to watch how the next foldable will compete with products like the Pixel Fold and the impending OnePlus V Fold in the months to come since they continue to line up to be among the top premium gadgets this year.
