Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G

Meanwhile, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 plays its trump card twice: It drives the Fold mightily and has plenty of power, but does not strain the battery as much as feared.

Only the Pixel 6a did better here. The powerful foldable phone with a test score of 1.7 is a workhorse. The brand-new successor (test on page 80) did not make it into this comparison in time.

The Galaxy Z Fold 4 has improved in many ways - it is definitely a device you should consider buying if, for example, you are regularly on the road for longer periods and don't want to buy a tablet separately. It is also worth it for short notes or more productive, smaller work. However, the price is still hefty.
