Nothing beats the feeling of flipping open a flip phone right? If you’ve always wanted to tick that off of your bucket list, now’s probably your best chance. The flagship Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is now going for $400 off, courtesy of Best Buy’s early Black Friday deals. What makes it a flipping solid deal is that it went official just last year and uses the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 as well as a massive 3.4-inch cover screen.
Usually, this flip phone is available for a budget-busting $999. Thanks to this Black Friday deal, you can get it for just $599.99, which is a 40% discount. But, there’s a subtle catch. This massive discount is only if you take to Verizon or AT&T when buying the phone. If not, you get $300 off, which brings the price down to $699.99.
Why Buy the Galaxy Z Flip 5?
Samsung’s flagship Z Flip series of phones are easily one of the best ones to go for, but the Z Flip 5’s big 3.4-inch Super AMOLED cover screen (Samsung calls it the Flex Window) is what makes it special. Prior to that, the Z Flip phones offered much smaller outer displays which would require you to mostly rely on the internal screen.
But, with the Z Flip 5’s real estate on the outside, you won’t find the need to do so, which is what doesn’t make the 3,700mAh battery that big of a dealbreaker. Besides, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is quite power efficient, thanks to its 4nm process node. This is one powerful chipset as well which can get you through some graphic-intensive gaming as well as heavy multitasking. Also, this is the base variant that sports 8GB RAM and 256GB of internal storage.
Moreover, thanks to this big cover screen, you will mostly find yourself checking notifications, replying to messages, making calls, or even making payments straight from here, thanks to Samsung Wallet. Not to mention that there are some serious Galaxy AI features in here that will only make you want to flaunt it more.
The Galaxy Z Flip 5 doesn’t compromise on the other things either, as there’s a beautiful and big 6.9-inch 120Hz AMOLED display on the inside. On the optics front, there’s also a dual 12MP rear camera setup with OIS along with a 10MP sensor at the front. Well, the cover screen can also become a solid viewfinder, letting you capture more detailed selfies from the rear sensors.
As far as flagship flip phones go, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 is one hell of a device. And, thanks to this early Black Friday deal, it’s an even more enticing purchase!
