I have branded myself the foldable evangelist for a minute now. From foldable smartphones to laptops, I am very fascinated by bending technology. When did screens begin to fold and flip, and what’s the future like? You can bet I will be at the forefront of following up on this tech.
Actually, I have a review of this 1st generation foldable laptop from Asus that I recently tested. Check back on Gadgets Africa for that soon. Till then, here is a list of my top foldable smartphones that you can try to buy in Kenya this early 2023.

Make calls, reply to texts and even control the SmartThings Scene widget, all from the Cover Screen. Additionally, you can take selfies right from the Cover Screen by leveraging the main camera with the upgraded Quick Shot.

This one is technically more of a tablet than a phone, but it still makes the cut.
It features two separate 5.3-inch panels that open up to give you an 8.3-inch workspace. The display is made of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus. There is a slim hinge that rotates 360 degrees to put the twin screens on either side. You can easily multitask, running two apps on different sides of the device.
The system is run by a Snapdragon 888 5G Chipset, 4449 MAh Battery, 512 GB Storage, and 8 GB RAM.

The Galaxy Z Fold4 is a device with increased functionality, whether opened, closed, or in Flex mode. Furthermore, it is Samsung’s first device to ship with Android 12L, a special version of Android created by Google for large-screen experiences.

Content is immersive and distinctive on the 7.6-inch main screen with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate. A new Taskbar provides a layout similar to your PC, offering access to favorite and recent apps.
