Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 offer best-in-class software support

When you buy a new smartphone, you want it to last as long as possible. It's not just the hardware that has to last, the software should keep up too, whether it's through updates that bring new features, improve performance, and fix bugs or updates that enhance your device's security to keep it safe against malicious attacks.

That's a mission that Samsung understands all too well, and it's why Galaxy smartphones and tablets get four generations of OS upgrades and five years of security updates. And that's exactly the kind of support you will get on the newly unveiled Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5.

Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Fold 5 software support remains in a class of its own

Samsung's latest foldables bring a number of durability upgrades to ensure they convince customers to switch over. The company has also packed the devices with the latest in mobile technology to deliver a truly bona fide flagship experience.

The company is well aware that people are now holding on to their devices for longer. They may not necessarily upgrade their phones every year. This is why it's so important to provide enhanced software support since it has become a key point of consideration for customers when they decide which phone to buy.

Samsung has been leading the pack when it comes to software support for Android devices. It has kept up that tradition for the new foldable phones as well. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5 are guaranteed to receive four years of Android OS upgrades. Since these devices come with Android 13 out of the box, this means you'll get Android 14, 15, 16, and 17 with all the goodness they have to offer.

The enhanced support doesn't end here. Samsung also promises five years of security updates, so if you're still rocking that Galaxy Z Flip 5 in 2028, you'll continue to receive security patches for that year. If that sounds like something you can get behind, go ahead and buy the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Z Fold 5 from Samsung. The devices have been released today so you can get your hands on them pretty quickly now.
