Tech & Science

Iphone At first, Samsung's effort to make a modern smartphone with a foldable display was gimmicky. There were far too many compromises for the average person to put up with. This new Galaxy Z Flip4, however, is laudable instead of laughable. There are a few nitpicky details that can be criticized if you look close enough, but in general, the Z Flip4 is a really nice phone, whether it's open or closed. The problem with this phone is figuring out how it actually makes your life better than, say, a Galaxy S22 or iPhone.

The Z Flip4 starts at $999.99 so it's a premium phone, even without the top-of-the-line specs across the board. A screen that bends still comes with its added cost. You'll need to decide if the novelty of it all is worth the price. Mostly that means figuring out whether the flexible phone is making your life easier throughout the day.
