About the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 is Samsung's book-style foldable flagship from August 2023, offering a tablet-sized experience that folds down to fit in your pocket. The 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner display with 120Hz refresh rate provides an expansive canvas for multitasking, media consumption, and productivity, while the 6.2-inch cover screen serves as a fully functional smartphone when folded. Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy with 12GB of RAM, the Z Fold5 handles demanding apps, split-screen multitasking, and Samsung DeX desktop mode with ease. The triple rear camera system features a 50MP main sensor with OIS, 10MP 3x telephoto, and 12MP ultrawide, delivering flagship-quality photos. Samsung improved the hinge design to allow the phone to close completely flat, eliminating the gap present in the Fold4. The 4,400mAh battery comfortably lasts a full day, supported by 25W wired and 15W wireless charging. IPX8 water resistance provides protection against accidental submersion. With the Z Fold6 and Fold7 now on the market, the Z Fold5 is available at substantial discounts from its original £1,749 launch price, making the large-screen foldable experience far more accessible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 still worth buying?
The Galaxy Z Fold5 is well worth considering at its current reduced prices. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 remains powerful, the 7.6-inch inner display is excellent for productivity and media, and the camera system produces strong results. The main reasons to consider the newer Fold6 are its brighter display, lighter weight, and enhanced Galaxy AI features.
How good is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 camera?
The triple camera system with a 50MP main, 12MP ultrawide, and 10MP 3x telephoto produces excellent photos across a range of conditions. OIS on the main sensor ensures stable shots, and low-light performance is solid. The under-display camera on the inner screen is 4MP and best suited for video calls rather than serious selfies.
How durable is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5?
The Z Fold5 features Samsung's refined Flex Hinge rated for over 200,000 folds, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the cover screen, and an Armor Aluminium frame. It carries an IPX8 water resistance rating for submersion up to 1.5 metres. The inner screen uses ultra-thin glass with a protective layer, though it is softer than conventional glass and should be treated with care.
Can you use the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 with an S Pen?
Yes, the Z Fold5 supports Samsung's S Pen Fold Edition on the inner display for note-taking, drawing, and annotation. However, unlike the S22 Ultra and later Ultra models, the S Pen is not built in and must be purchased separately. Samsung offers cases with S Pen slots for convenient storage.
How long does the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 battery last?
The 4,400mAh battery reliably lasts a full day with mixed use across both screens. Heavy use of the large inner display for multitasking or video will drain it faster. It supports 25W wired charging, 15W wireless charging, and 4.5W reverse wireless charging.
How does the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 compare to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6?
The Z Fold6 offers a brighter display, the faster Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, a slimmer and lighter design at 239g versus 253g, improved dust resistance with an IP48 rating, and full Galaxy AI integration. The camera hardware is similar across both models. The Fold6 launched at £1,799, while the Fold5 is now available at significant discounts, making it excellent value if you want the foldable experience for less. Compare Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 deals.

Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality.

Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
