Through years of hard work, Samsung has pulled the price of the Galaxy Z Flip3 flip-top folding screen smartphone down to less than $1,000. Compared with the Galaxy Z Fold series flat panel folding screen models, many users prefer the former with a compact design. However, as the release date of the Galaxy Z Fold4 and the Galaxy Z Flip4 approaches, it is reported that the shape and design of the Galaxy Z Flip4 will hardly change at all.

On Friday, South Korean whistleblower Dohyun Kim revealed on Twitter that the Galaxy Z Flip4 is basically equivalent to the Galaxy Z Flip3.
In a way, this means that consumers who are used to the Galaxy Z Flip3 can seamlessly switch to the Galaxy Z Flip4.
But if the functionality and performance don't change much, the similar design may be difficult to attract old users to upgrade – unless the new machine becomes more compact and slimmer, and the price is further reduced.
Obviously, if you want to popularize the folding screen smart machine, price and durability are still the most important factors affecting consumers' purchase. The good news is that both the Galaxy Z Fold4 and the Galaxy Z Flip4 are rumored to be more affordable than the previous generation.
In addition, it is said that the new generation of folding screen smart opportunities to switch to the side fingerprint recognition scheme (integrated with the power button), rather than the rumored replacement of the fingerprint sensor under the screen earlier this year.
Finally, Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Z Fold4 and Galaxy Z Flip4 in Q3 of this year. Interested friends, you can pay attention to the subsequent specifications and release date and other breaking news.
