New phone season is officially upon us, as Samsung readies its Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5 for launch, earlier than last year. Apple will soon follow with an iPhone 15 family, then more from Google and OnePlus. If you’re excited about the new iPhone, you probably haven’t considered a foldable, but you really should. The best foldable phones, especially compact flip phones, have features that would please even the most ardent iPhone fanatics.
Update: Samsung’s new devices are now official, and you can now check out our hands-on Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 review and hands-on Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review for our early impressions of these devices, and our early Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 review and early Samsung Watch 6 Classic review for our initial verdicts of the wearables after our time with them so far.
