A big focus on the Z-Flip 4 was placed on the home screen. You can make payments and reply to messages when the smartphone is closed. There is a small screen next to the camera lenses.
The camera lenses have of course also been improved, as has the frame, which has been reduced in size. The battery has also been significantly improved. You can now watch videos for up to 19 hours or listen to music for 56 hours. The smartphone will be available on August 26 starting at a price of $999.
Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
During the presentation, a lot was said about the audio quality. Instead of 16-bit audio, the new Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are supposed to deliver 24-bit audio. According to Samsung, 256 times more audio information is transmitted.
In general, the sound quality has been improved: For example, you should have the feeling that the sound is coming through several speakers, or when someone is talking to you, the sound should automatically be turned down. The headphones will also be released on August 26 and will be available starting at $229.
Galaxy Watch 5
A new smartwatch from Samsung is coming onto the market. The first thing that catches your eye is the sleek, matte design. A brand new feature of the watch is the temperature sensor, which is used to measure the body temperature. The watch will be available on August 26, starting at a price of $279.
Galaxy Z Fold 4
As with the Z Flip 4, the frame has been reduced so that more screen space is available. The new Z Fold 4 has a touch of Apple's iPad, which is also mostly designed for work. Word and Excel even get an improved layout on the smartphone.
The processor has also been greatly improved. CPU, NPU and GPU should all have significant improvements. The camera has also been greatly improved. Pre-orders can already be made now starting at a price of $1799.
