The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 (stylized as Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4, sold as Samsung Galaxy Flip 4 in certain territories) is an Android-based foldable smartphone manufactured, developed and marketed by Samsung Electronics, as part of its Galaxy Z series. It was announced at the August 2022 edition of Galaxy Unpacked event[5][6] alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Watch 5, and released subsequently on August 25, 2022, as the successor to the Galaxy Z Flip 3.[7][8]
The Galaxy Z Flip 4 was succeeded by the Galaxy Z Flip 5 on July 26, 2023.
Design
The Z Flip 4 uses the same clamshell design as the Z Flip with an aluminum frame, it has a 6.7-in display protected by ultra-thin glass made by Samsung that can be folded into a space of 4.2-in. Once it is folded, the Samsung logo shows up by the center of the hinge. It also adopts 1.9-inch cover screen. This change in cover screen enables users to download widgets such as music, weather, alarm, timer, voice recorder, today's schedule, Samsung Health, and Bluetooth.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 is available in four colors: Graphite, Pink Gold, Bora Purple and Blue.[9]

Specifications
Hardware
The Galaxy Z Flip 4 has two screens: its foldable inner 6.7-inch display with a 120 Hz variable refresh rate and its 1.9-inch cover display.
The device has 8 GB of RAM, and either 128 GB, 256 GB or 512 GB of UFS 3.1 flash storage, with no support for expanding the device's storage capacity via micro-SD cards.
The Z Flip 4 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.
The device's included battery is a 3700 mAh dual-cell unit that fast charges via USB-C up to 25 W, or via wireless charging up to 10 W.
The Z Flip 4 features two rear cameras, including a 12 MP wide-angle camera and a 12 MP ultra-wide camera. It has a 10 MP front-facing camera at the top of the display.
Software
The Galaxy Z Flip 4 shipped with Android 12L and Samsung's custom One UI 4.1.1 skin.[10] They enabled a couple of new “Labs” features for multi-window fans. With these new options enabled, users can now swipe the corner of an app inward to enable Pop-Up View. They can also swipe from the edges of the screen using two fingers to enable multi-window mode on the fly. Samsung has promised 4–5 years of updates to this, its predecessor and its successor (OS upgrades and security updates respectively, meaning support will end in 2027).
The One UI 5 update based on Android 13 began rolling out to the Z Flip 4 devices on November 7, 2022.[11] The firmware update also comes with a November 2022 security patch that fixes all sorts of security vulnerabilities.
The One UI 6 update based on Android 14 began rolling out to the Z Flip 4 devices on December 8, 2023.[12] This was later followed by One UI 6.1, which made its debut first on the Galaxy S24.
The One UI 7 update based on Android 15 began rolling out to the Z Flip 4 devices on May 2, 2025.[13]
Finally on October 6, 2025, the Z Flip 4 received Android 16 with One UI 8 as its last version.[14]
