For a few years now, I've been more and more tempted by foldables. It started with a Galaxy Z Fold4 back in the day, and has only gotten stronger. I want a foldable in my pocket, but one with great cameras. At the end of 2025, I feel like foldable camera systems are nearly at the level I want them to be.
The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold officially went on sale this fall, and it was welcomed with stiff competition from the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. While Google doesn't bring a flashy redesign like Samsung this year, it rivals the Galaxy with quality-of-life features -- a couple of which are subtle but industry-firsts for the foldable market. If you are ready to upgrade from a slab phone to a foldable one, now is the best time to do so.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 price has hit a new low - it's now under €800. This puts it between the vanilla Galaxy S25 and the S25+. The flip foldable offers a new form factor experience, unlike the S-phones, which haven't changed much in the last few years. The Z Flip7 has a 4.1" cover and a 6.9" inner display plus a 50+12MP dual camera on the outside (usable with the cover display).
The majority of people prefer that only folded dimensions are used when filtering phones based on their thickness, width and height. People had a simple reason for voting this way - most of the time, the phones stay folded. You carry them closed, of course, but with the rapid improvement of cover displays (especially on flip foldables), you can get a lot done without opening the phone.
If you can't tell from the image below, Razr's latest handset boasts a unique wood grain back panel, which makes it one of the best-looking phones you can buy. It's not just about looks, though; the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset makes it incredibly fast, and it still manages to last a full day on a single charge. It also features two displays, specifically a 7-inch 1224p inner display that unfolds and a 4-inch 1080p outer screen that's perfect
The apps that work brilliantly in a standard Android setup don't always work so well when you're dealing with a dual display. Specifically, anything involving your Android home screen is suddenly in a whole new universe. It kinda makes sense, when you really stop and think about it: On a typical Android device - the type 99% of Homo sapiens carry around and that we've all traditionally been using for years now
If you've been eyeing a flip phone but have been put off by the price, now's your chance to snag one at a serious discount. Motorola's latest Razr is currently matching its all-time low price of $599.99 ($100 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Motorola's online storefront, making what was already an affordable flip phone even cheaper. The 2025 Razr is a solid, relatively inexpensive entry point into the world of foldables.
Very small particles are a particular concern for foldables. A piece of sand or dirt that works its way under the sensitive inner screen can cause it to fail. Folding phones have some protections against particles, like brushes in the hinges to keep dust out, but none had been considered fully dust-tight - until now. Samsung's IP48-rated Folds and Flips only guarantee protection against objects greater than a millimeter in size, which is bigger than a speck of dust (not to mention many sand grains).
The i-Blason Cosmo Series Case offers a unique two-piece system designed for the Galaxy Z Flip7, prioritizing military-grade protection while accommodating the phone's folding mechanism.
