Don't pay more than you need to with these handy Galaxy Z Flip 4 deals
You'll find all of this week's best Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 deals just down below for those looking to snap up the remaining stock. Now there are new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 deals on the market, this device is technically discontinued - although a limited number of retailers still have some listings at clearance prices.
Launching at a price of $999 / £999 for the baseline 128GB variant makes the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 ever so slightly pricier than its Flip 3 predecessor. Luckily, however, there are a number of iterative improvements that cover nearly aspect of the device to help justify that price increase. The chipset, screen, and physical design have all been improved to the point where this was the most user-friendly and complete clamshell at the time (prior to the new Flip 5).
Starting with internal upgrades, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 packs in a respectable Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset alongside 8GB of RAM for speedy performance. An upgraded battery and new adaptive refresh rate display should help you get a full day's use out of the device, while sensor improvements in the camera offer better lighting and image stabilization for both video and stills. It's a decent set of upgrades, although the overall design, look, and feel of the device are relatively similar to the previous Galaxy Z Flip 3.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 deals: what you need to know
OS: Android 12 | Screen size: 6.7-inch AMOLED, 120Hz | Resolution: 2640 x 1080 (main) 512 x 260 (cover) | CPU: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 | Memory: 8GB | Weight: 187g | Storage: 128GB / 256GB / 512GB | Battery: 3,700mAh | Rear camera: 12MP wide / 12MP ultrawide | Front camera: 10MP
Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 offers a fairly iterative upgrade to the brand's line of clamshell foldable devices - one that may seem fairly subdued at first glance. However, it's worth noting that there are updates to nearly every aspect of the device that cumulatively add up to the most polished, well-thought-out, and powerful device in the range so far.
Perhaps the biggest upgrade is the new Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset under the Flip 4's hood. As of late 2022, this is right up there with the very best mobile processors on the market currently and gives the Flip 4 plenty of grunt for intensive apps, gaming, and everyday scrolling. It's worth noting, however, that the Flip 4 'only' comes with 8GB of RAM, as opposed to the hefty 12GB you'll find on its Galaxy Z Fold 4 sibling.
Outwardly, the Flip 4 shares the same design as the Flip 3 although a slimmed-down bezel means the device is a little bit smaller (1.5mm) when folded. Inside, the main screen now has UTG 2.0 (ultra-tough-glass), which is supposedly 20% tougher than previously. As before, the display is a 2640 x 1080 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with up to 120Hz refresh rate. We say 'up to' here because the display now fully supports an adaptive refresh rate, which should help with battery life. Speaking of which, the battery has now been bumped up to 3,700mAh from the Flip 3's 3,400mAh, which is a fantastic upgrade considering the battery life was a common complaint with the previous model.
Camera-wise, you're not getting any headline improvements to the glass or resolution, but there are a few sensor upgrades that Samsung claims will result in better lighting in stills and videos. By bumping up the number of pixels to 1.8µm (up from 1.4µm), Samsung claims you'll now get up to 65% more brightness. Image stabilization for both video and photos has been improved too, so it should be easier to capture that perfect scene.
