How to buy the Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Z Fold 4 right now

Foldable phones are no longer a strange new concept — now they’re just a type of smartphone we see released every year. But just because they’re becoming commonplace in release schedules doesn’t mean they’re common in everyday life. This may be your chance to change that for yourself. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 are now available, and while neither is a massive change from the previous generation of foldable smartphones, they’re both still great-looking and powerful phones that are truly next-generation.

How do you get your hands on these amazing machines? We’ve got the details right here, whether you’re taking the foldable plunge for the first time or you’re an established fan.

Buying from Samsung

The Galaxy Z devices are expensive, but they don’t have to be if you grab the right bonuses. Samsung is offering up to $1,000 off the Galaxy Z Fold 4 when you trade-in. Trading in will get you $900 off the Galaxy Z Flip 4.

The 512GB model of the Z Flip 4 and the 1TB model of the Z Fold 4 are both Samsung exclusives for now, so this is the only place you can easily grab them.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 with 256GB of storage$1,800 upfront, $50.01 per month for 36 months, or $450 every two weeks for two months.

Buying from AT&T

AT&T is offering some solid bonuses, including being able to get the Galaxy Z Flip 4 for free or the Galaxy Z Fold 4 for $1,000 off, as long as you hit certain criteria. You’ll need to sign up for AT&T’s installment plan and get an unlimited plan, but the amazing inclusion is the ability to trade in any Galaxy phone, from any year, in any condition, and still get the bonus. That’s a big draw for anyone with an older Samsung phone chilling in a cupboard, box, or drawer.

I’m buying a new Samsung folding phone, but not the one you’d expect

I bought the original Samsung Galaxy Fold, which I still have today, and I absolutely loved its futuristic design, multimedia ability, and feeling like I was right on the cutting edge of consumer mobile tech. I purchased the Galaxy Z Fold 3 in 2021 and upgraded to the Galaxy Z Fold 4 in 2022 — so surely I’ve already pre-ordered the Galaxy Z Fold 5, right?

Samsung has had a jam-packed Galaxy Unpacked event in Seoul, South Korea. We now have three new tablets with the Galaxy Tab S9 series, two new Galaxy Watch 6 wearables, the compact but capable Galaxy Z Flip 5, and of course, the Galaxy Z Fold 5.

For a lot of people, the main star of the show is probably the Galaxy Z Fold 5. After all, it’s one of the more impressive devices that Samsung revealed at the event — and a follow-up to one of the best folding phones you can buy.

You may be able to get a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 nearly free
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 with its main display open.

Attention students, teachers, and eligible faculty, it may be possible for you to pre-order the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 for nearly free, thanks to a series of promotions and credits. That's right, at virtually no cost. Sound too good to be true? Well, it isn't, just listen up. You will need some ingenuity, thanks to Samsung's current enhanced trade-in values.

The Z Flip 4 has a trade-in value of $900 currently, which means Samsung will give you that amount in credit to put towards a new device. With the newest Z Flip 5 being priced at $1,000 that essentially eliminates most of the cost. How? Let's do the math. The actual price of the Z Flip 5 is $999.99, so with a Z Flip 4 trade-in, the price drops to $900. Then you can apply the educational discount of 10% off to lose another $10 -- dropping the final price to $90. But here's an even better point, you get a $50 reserve credit with your pre-order which can be used towards accessories. So, if you take advantage of this offer you're potentially paying next to nothing to get the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5. How awesome is that? But wait! There's more. You'll also get a free storage upgrade with your pre-order, boosting the storage capacity in your new device, plus you can save on bundles -- getting discounts on the Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Watch6, or Galaxy Buds2 Pro.
