Samsung began offering 5G versions of its flagship phones alongside LTE variants a couple of years ago, and its premium range is now entirely dedicated to this new standard. In other words, Samsung is only selling 5G versions of the new Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3, with no LTE-only options available anywhere.
The company's flagships completed their transition to 5G last year with the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 2. The Galaxy S21 series that followed in January 2021 was also released only in 5G flavor, so of course, the state-of-the-art Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 are following the same strategy.
All in all, this means buyers of Samsung's 3rd-gen foldable phones don't have to worry about buying a flagship device in 2021 that lacks 5G. Regardless of where you might be buying the Z Fold 3 or Flip 3, Samsung makes it possible for you to take advantage of 5G connectivity from day one without worrying whether the 5G model is even available in your region.
