We all like to read and watch things on our phones, but our current screens can only do so much. What if you could have a phone that can turn into a mini-TV, a notepad or an e-reader anytime you wanted? How about one that could do two of those things at the same time? That's a job for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, one of many exciting new devices recently announced by the developer available for a nifty pre-order deal today.

We can say for certain that the Galaxy Z Fold Series offers quality tech, with the current Fold 4 model being our favorite Android smartphone. Our tester praised it for its versatility via Flex Mode, which lets you split the folding screen into two segments that manage two apps at the same time. That means you can attend a Zoom meeting on one screen and take notes on the other. You can also customize your app layout for whatever home screen you want and connect multiple Bluetooth devices to it at the same time. So if you already have a Galaxy smartwatch or Galaxy earbuds, both sync up to the phone with ease.

Outfitted with many of the same features we loved on the Fold 4, the new smartphone is slightly lighter than the previous model and has a powerful Snapdragon Gen2 chip. According to Samsung, it also has a brighter display and a new hinge design, which allows the phone to open flat and works to eliminate the small gap where debris could get into on previous Fold models.
