Best retailers to preorder the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5:
Samsung has fine-tuned its flagship foldable. (Say that five times fast.)
Announced at the company's Galaxy Unpacked event on Wednesday, the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 updates last year's excellent Z Fold 4 with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and an improved hinge that allows it to close completely flat like a book — no gaps.
SEE ALSO: Everything Samsung announced at its Galaxy Unpacked eventThe rest of the Z Fold 5's specs are carry-overs from its predecessor, as is its starting price of $1,799.99. (To quote Mashable's Alex Perry, "this is definitely an evolutionary year rather than a revolutionary one for the Z Fold line.") It may not make for an especially thrilling upgrade, but it's a nice new default for anyone thinking of buying their first foldable.
The Z Fold 5 comes standard in phantom black, cream, and icy blue, and in two exclusive colors on Samsung.com: gray and blue. It's officially set for release on Friday, August 11. Here's where you can pre-order it in the meantime:
The retail giant will give you a free storage bump to the 512GB model (a $120 value) and a free $200 Amazon gift card when you reserve an unlocked Z Fold 5 there. This is easily the best preorder deal out there right now for shoppers who aren't trading in their current device.

You can get up to $1,000 off with a qualifying trade-in.
