So after months of speculation. It's here and in my hands.

The Galaxy Z Fold 4.

The box is minimalist with the design with the name front and centre to leave you with no doubt what's inside. 
 
image
 
First of all the packaging with the pamphlets, charging lead and sim ejection tool
 
image
 
Below that is the main event.
The Galaxy Z Fold 4
 
image
 
It's fully wrapped up in a protective covering and just peels off.
 
image
 
There is no screen protector on it, so it's worth ordering one when you purchase the phone.
Also no charger, so can order one of these while your there.
 
image
 
So first thing I noticed is the crease is not as pronounced as the Z Fold 3.
I will do a comparison post between the two soon.
But the phone feels premium. 
I got the grey/green colour.

It has similar coloured polished frame edges. Hopefully this finish will be durable and won't scratch easily. 
 
image
 
All the buttons are basically the same as the Galaxy Z Fold 3, including the SIM tray.
 
image
 
Large speaker grills with plenty of microphone holes.
 
image
 
The camera bump doesn't stick out too much and the cameras seem to be slightly larger than the Galaxy Z Fold 3.
But again I will cover this in a comparison post.
 
image
 
First impressions of the screens. 
 
image
 
Well they look amazing with such bright and vibrant colours. 
Samsung just do the best looking screens 
 
image
 
So that's just a quick First impression and got more bits to come.
Have you ordered or thinking about getting one?
Let us know in the comments. 
Any questions, feel free to ask 🙂

Be good to hear your Fold3 vs Fold4 thoughts, aside the Watch5, I am only seeing negligible improvements vs the Fold3 and Watch4.

The Buds Pro2 vs Pro1 is a different story and a good upgrade once you factor in some discount, the free wireless charger, trade in and then BT5.3 and BT LE coming soon.

Just upgraded the flip 3 for fold 4, absolutely loving it so far, such a premium device, ordered a screen protector for front screen tho, but middle screen has one already

Nothing majorly different from the fold 3 to fold 4 for me. Camera does seem better but not fully tested that yet. The front screen is nice to use now and I find myself doing lots more on there including typing messages and emails etc.

Just in the process of writing a post on the hardware differences
They are small differences, but they make a difference

Is the front screen bigger?
I regularly use the front screen for quick replies
