Not exclusive to Galaxy Z Fold 4, it is reported that the old Samsung folding phone will also get a new taskbar

CTOnews.com8 March 15, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 was officially released on the evening of August 10, the first smartphone with the Android 12L operating system, which has a new taskbar layout, somewhat similar to the taskbar at the bottom of the PC operating system.

Now, according to the blogger @ TheGalox_, the old Samsung Galaxy Z Fold folding phone will upgrade One UI 4.1.1 "later this year" to get a new taskbar.

It's not clear how much of Samsung's Z Fold4 One UI 4.1.1 user experience is related to the new Android 12L, but judging from GSM Arena's hands-on experience, at least some Google native apps can get a good experience in split-screen mode.

Android 12L, an operating system launched by Google last year, is designed for foldable devices, tablets and Chrome OS devices, with some optimizations in terms of operational logic.

CTOnews.com learned that the Android 12L brings a number of new features, improves the experience of multitasking on large-screen devices, and supports new sliding gestures, and Samsung announced at the Galaxy Z Fold 4 launch that it will join forces with Google and Microsoft to bring a stronger software experience to the device.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 is equipped with 4nm's Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 + Gen 1 chipset, supplemented by 12GB's RAM and 1TB internal storage, built-in 4400mAh battery, and supports 25W fast charging + 15W wireless charging. Also equipped with a 6.2inch HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X external screen, support for 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, 402ppi.
