Best Foldable Phones (2023)

Reviewing the best foldable smartphones in 2023, including compact bendy phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Motorola RAZR, plus Z Fold 4 mimics such as the Honor Magic Vs. We also preview the top foldables launching this year, such as Google's Pixel Fold and Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Fold 5.

What's your own pick for the best bendy smartphone right now? Let us know below!

If you're after a mini mobile, the Samsung Z Flip 4 is one of the best. It's got a serious crease and the camera struggles in lower light (pretty common for a flexible phone), while the battery life is also limited. But those displays are gorgeous, the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 performance is top, and it's water resistant.

The Oppo Find N2 Flip boasts a bigger cover screen and better battery life, although the water resistance is gone. And you can't run any app on that front display, unlike the excellent Motorola RAZR. Here's looking forward to the RAZR 40 Ultra, set to launch this week!

For fans of big phones-cum-tablets, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 is still one of the better options. However, the battery life and hinge design isn't as good as the Honor Magic Vs - which loses the water resistance, wireless charging and smart software of Samsung's foldable.

If you are patient, we should see that Samsung Z Flip 5 and Z Fold 5 as well as the OnePlus foldable. And the Pixel Fold will be released in the UK in June 2023.

My Z Fold4 is 3 months old, using it as a daily device. Still looks and works as new, it's an incredible device with tons of usability scenarios. I jumped to it from an iPhone 13 PRO and I don't regret this switch. I believe foldables are the futures of the mobile industry.

Bought a Z Flip 4 for about 649€, 749€ with 100€ reimborsed after in France, cheaper than an S22! Really good for its price i find! This was less than a week ago with SFR if you want to know where

Flagship = Processor + Camera
Gaming = Processor + Battery
Fold = "I'm (expensive) in danger." -Ralph

Ps. Gaming phones will have better cameras before flagships have bigger batteries. They will say it's for safety reasons, but they want people replace their phone as soon as posible.

Let's be honest - we are all waiting for Motorola Razr+ 2023

Please let me know when a foldable comes out with Micro SD card support. Thanks

[kierangerrard]

Out of those the OnePlus is looking my favourite!
Do you think the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 will make it over to the UK?

I still have a dual screen LG G8X.

One wonders what LG would be currently producing if it had not exited the smartphone market.

I was actually looking forward to the Galaxy Z Fold5 at the time. Hope was an improved hinge and a better solution for the S-Pen. Well, everyone has to decide for themselves whether the latter has been solved better, but the foil and hinge have improved significantly. I've been using the Fold5 for 3-4 months now and I'm more than thrilled. The wow effect when you open it always comes back 😄

[elizabethterrell]

I can’t wait for Motorola razer + all sold out I’ve looked . 😢it looks so so good looking forward to ur review

[johnpaulgraham]

I desperately wanted an Oppo Find N2. Looks like a fantastic phone. Bring back Oppo!
Have Apple (sorry just been sick) brought or are bringing out a bendy blower?

[mushtaqshah]

Looking forward to the one plus fold. I am hoping it will be based on the yet to be announced oppo find N3 instead of the N2. What do you think? Do you know something we don't ? Thanks

The wifi stopped working on my z fold 3 but luckily there was 22 days left on warranty, and samsung fixed it in 3 days here in Glendale, CA. They replaced the inner screen and the whole frame and the hinge for free.

[makoshark]

Going for that fold 4 when i get back home soon
