I made a beeline to test out the Z Fold 4 since it intrigues me the most as a frequent multi-tasker and it was love at first sight!
The build material feels premium, the latest hinge were solid, it does not feel any heavier compared with my S22 Ultra, the back finish is matte and does not smudge easily with my sweaty palms, and the Taskbar is a multi-tasking powerhouse! You can have up to 3 permanent tabs, followed with an unlimited number of "pop-up" apps.
Trying out the Taskbar and multi-tab feature on the large main screen.I can imagine myself attending video conferences while reading important documents or taking notes with its S-pen capabilities.
Imagine myself in a call while taking notes with the S-pen!The camera on the Fold 4 is no pushover! Sharing the same lineup as the basic S22 series, I took some 3x and 10x magnification photos and placed them side by side with my S22 Ultra and the difference was minimal.

Comparison of camera at 3x zoom.To reassure myself that the large device still works as a normal phone, I even made a dummy call and experienced the handling of the device. And yes it behaves like any brick phone out there! The wider 6.2" cover screen of this Fold series also makes it more comfortable to use when folded.
Knock Knock, who's there? Broke wallet.
Larger cover screen with thinner bezzels, feels like a slim brick device.That's my first impression of the Z Fold 4! More about the Flip 4 in Part 3!
