Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 5G 12 GB / 256 GB / Global technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 5G suits anyone looking for a foldable phone with a large workspace for reading, work and media. Its main trade-off is weight: at 282 g, it is among the heaviest phones of its time.

Opened out, it has a 7.6″ Dynamic AMOLED 2X foldable display, a 120 Hz refresh rate and an 88.6% usable surface. The 120 Hz rate and screen-to-body ratio are better than most phones of its time, while its 6.9 mm thickness is among the best. The cover display measures 6.23″. Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, 12GB RAM and an AnTuTu result of 564,907 place the hardware among the best of its time.

The rear camera setup combines three cameras, optical stabilization, 2x optical zoom and 4K video at 60 fps. Its optical zoom is among the best of its time, but the rear main camera’s 12 MP resolution is lower than most phones of that period. Connectivity is also among the best, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6, eSIM and Samsung DeX. The 4500 mAh battery supports 25W charging; 11W wireless charging is among the best of its time, and reverse charging is available.

With an overall NeoScore of 7.1, the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G is a strong fit for people who prioritize a foldable display, multitasking and complete hardware over low weight and high camera resolution.
