When it comes to folding phones, Samsung has been leading the way for a number of years. Sure, we loved Motorola’s earlier reimagining of the Razr, too, but if you want a large-screen foldable then you’ll be wanting to look at the Galaxy Z Fold 4.

The Z Fold 4 is one of those rare phones that catches people’s eyes, for better or worse. It no doubt impresses with its giant screen, but then so did its predecessor. But the big question many will be asking: is the Galaxy Z Fold 4 different enough to its predecessor to be worth buying; or, in an even simpler way, is a large-screen foldable a sensible purchase at all?
