Design
Well, if you were expecting a whole lot of changes then you may feel disappointed, but frankly speaking, you should not. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 retains the same clamshell design that acts a lot like a traditional flip phone that hides a full modern smartphone inside.
However, it sure is slightly different from Galaxy Z Flip3 in terms of design. Galaxy Z Flip3 is shorter and narrower than the Flip3. It also has flatter sides that look aesthetically appealing and will make it easier to hold.

Durability
We have always known Samsung to be a durable brand, haven’t we? The Z Flip4’s interior display is said to be 45% more durable while the exterior is coated in Corning’s Gorilla Glass Victus Plus. The hinge is stronger, a bit smaller, and has a glossier finish compared to the Z Flip3.
Price
India’s price of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 is yet to be announced by Samsung. However, both the new folding phones, retain the same price as their predecessor — $999 and $1799 respectively in the US. And if Samsung decides to follow the same pricing strategy in India as it did in the US, then they will be priced at Rs 84,999 and Rs 147999.
