Its hinge is also one of the most secure we’ve used, holding its position firmly between around 45º and all the way open, and the fact the phone’s also IPX8 water resistant thrusts it to the top of charts when it comes to flip phone durability.

In the same breath, the phone looks clean, and we love the color options. Ultimately, for a phone that seems to be all about design, we actually find the Galaxy Z Flip 5’s styling a little bit safe and clinical. Here’s where you’ll find the dual 12MP camera and the new, larger display, with its strange shape and unique interface – more on that later. While the back panel is a polished sheet of glass – light colors look better, as smudges look less visible on them – this phone is all about the cover screen. There’s a USB-C port at the base of the phone and a speaker, and the SIM slot is on the Flip 5’s left side.

Ports and buttons and buttons match up to the Z Flip 4 with a power button and fingerprint scanner combo on the right alongside a volume rocker.
