A foldable smartphone from Samsung. Introduced in 2020, the Galaxy Z Flip is one of the first devices with a foldable OLED screen. Reminiscent of the flip phone, the generation prior to smartphones, the 2024 Flip 6 and 2025 Flip 7 have 50MP cameras, 4K video and 256GB of storage. There is no microSD card slot for extra storage and USB C is used for the headphones. For old flip phones, see

Flip vs. Fold
While the Galaxy Flip opens to a full-size screen, the Galaxy Fold's two full-size screens become a small tablet. See
Galaxy Fold and
FOLED.
Flip Models
Flip models have a typical full phone screen when opened, but when closed the "cover screen" handles incoming calls, texts and notices. (Images courtesy of PCMag.com and Samsung Electronics Company, Ltd.)
