Besides being engineering marvels and incorporating unique functions and mainstream apps, Samsung’s foldables keep delivering new and versatile device experiences optimised for work, play, and everything in-between.
Even though Samsung made a big show with the release of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Flip 5 models in recent months, there is already talk about the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Flip 6 series.
While the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is several months from launch, some leaks indicate it will pack substantial upgrades over the Galaxy Z Fold 5.
It’s claimed that Samsung will change the outer display‘s aspect ratio, making it more roomy and less cramped. This should impact usability and make the cover screen more practical for daily use.
Current reports point to significant improvements for the next generation foldable phones, especially in terms of design.
In comparison to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 (which has a thickness of 13.4mm when folded and 6.1mm when opened), the new entrants may appear with a much thinner design.
It is almost confirmed that the new Galaxy Z Fold 6 will be supported by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or Exynos 2400 chipset, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, superfast UFS 4.0 storage, and a big battery.
if the leaks are anything to go by, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will not get a major camera upgrade. Instead, it may use the same 50MP GN3 sensor as the Z Fold 5. A 12MP ultrawide and a 3x telephoto shooter may accompany the primary camera.
Expected release date: August 2024
Projected pricing: Taking a cue from the Galaxy Z Fold 5 (which starts starts at $1,799.99/ £1,749), it’s expected that the Z Fold 6 will cost at least that much
