Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 leaks indicate some big upgrades for the foldable devices
Samsung’s 2024 foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, are expected to launch around July – and some new leaks have revealed more about the upgrades that could come with the new hardware.
According to tipster @kro_roe (through SamMobile), the Z Fold 6 will enter the picture with improved anti-glare screen technology on the outer screen – possibly borrowed from the Galaxy S24 Ultra and its Gorilla Glass Armor protection.
The leak also points to up to 16GB of RAM for the folding book style – compared to 12GB on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 – and storage options of 256GB, 512GB and 1TB. The 2023 edition offered the same storage choices.
Whether or not the phone will come with a built-in S Pen slot is apparently yet to be decided. That wasn’t the case last time, as our Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 review will tell you, but we’ve seen rumors that a slot would be added this year.
On the other hand
On to the Z Flip 6, and we are once again indebted to it @kro_roe And SamMobile FYI, the foldable flip gets a whopping 12GB of RAM this time around, depending on region, compared to 8GB in the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5.
Storage options are listed as 256GB and 512GB, matching the 2023 model, and we’re apparently going to get longer battery life. In our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review, we found that the phone lasted around 5.5 hours of screen time.
According to the tipster, some versions of this foldable will feature an Exynos processor for the first time, while the cover screen will be upgraded to a 120Hz refresh rate, to match the internal screen with that particular spec.
We’ve already seen plenty of leaks and rumors surrounding these two devices, including predictions that they’ll launch at an Unpacked event in July – most likely alongside a number of other Samsung gadgets, including the Samsung Galaxy Ring.
