Then from pop-up view, drag any app to the more intuitive Multi Window to work on a few things simultaneously. Move content easily between apps and screens with a two-handed drag-and-drop.

Why not both?

Raising the bar on innovation, the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5 are thinner, lighter, and now have a zero gap hinge. The slimmer form factor achieves a more elegant design and has better dust-resistance when the Main Screen is folded, not to mention the smartphones have an IPX8 rating[1] for water-resistance.
