Flex mode allows you to do more by enabling comfortable hands-free viewing. Flex Mode allows you to view in the upper screen while reviewing with controls in the bottom screen. You can also enjoy a hands-free camera experience by capturing life moments without the need for a tripod. The device’s free-standing angles are from 75 to 115 degrees, supporting both your work and play time.

Viewing in any angle

Note: UX transition angles differ from device free-standing angles (75°~115°) and vary when opening and closing the device.

Capture life moments without the need for a tripod using Z Fold2's Rear, Inner front and Cover camera. You can also use palm shot to take selfies on demand, without having to push a button.

Hands-free camera

Note:

  • Palm shot is supported for photo only when shooting with the Inner front camera and Cover camera.
  • Palm shot is also supported with the Rear camera only for Rear Cam Selfie and Dual Preview etc., if the Cover screen is on.

You no longer need to go back and forth between your camera and gallery to get the perfect picture. Using Capture View Mode, you can see previews of photos and videos about to be captured, while simultaneously viewing the photo recently taken. You can instantly delete the result without having to open the gallery app. You can capture and view together by half-folding the device (landscape & portrait) or tap 'Capture & View' icon on the top right hand side.

Capture View Mode

Auto framing in the Rear, Inner front and Cover camera recognises a moving person and optimises the frame to keep them centred while taking a hands-free video. It not only recognises the shape of the face or body, but the frame also zooms out when more than two people are detected.

Step 1. 
Open the Camera app > Tap Video.
Step 2. Tap ‘Auto framing’ icon on the bottom left.

Note: When more than two people are detected, the frame zooms out.

You can take photos or record videos using the cover screen while the device is either fully folded or unfolded.

When taking a photo or video, a preview is displayed on the cover screen at the same time. This allows the subjects of the photo or video to see the result before it is taken.
