In the first generation of the Galaxy Z Flip, the external display was less than 2 inches. That should change with the Galaxy Z Flip 5, industry insiders can report.
Although the external display now offers more options, at around 1.9 inches it’s too small for the current Galaxy Z Flip 4. With the new 2023 generation, Samsung is planning a big leap forward. According to Ross Young, the external display will then have a screen diagonal of more than 3 inches. It is rumored to have 3.3 to 3.4 inches.
Hinge: Changes to improve folding display
Yang also said that there are revisions to the hinge area. This should have a positive effect on the display fold, which may then be less visible. A major target for manufacturers of foldable phones and ultimately the biggest visual flaw in recent years.
Since the last Z Flip models have been quite similar, this information already suggests that the Galaxy Z Flip 5 could be a major upgrade. In my opinion, this is also necessary, otherwise the competition will catch up.
