The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is expected to cost around $100 more than previous models, based on a leak in the Indian market and set to apply worldwide. The three Galaxy Z Fold 6 models are predicted to cost $1,899 (256GB), $2,019.99 (512GB) and $2,259.99 (1TB). The same price hike in the UK would mean prices of £1,849 for the 256GB model, £1,949 for the 512GB and £2,149 for 1TB. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are set to launch in July 2024. The latest set of images of a dummy unit of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 reveals its design, confirming previous leaked renders. The device is wider than its predecessor, resulting in larger outer and inner displays. It has a boxier design with flatter sides and sharper edges, giving it a cleaner, more elegant appearance. The dummy unit shows three cameras at the rear along with a volume button and fingerprint scanner on the right-hand side of the device. Samsung is expected to increase the price of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 by $100 compared to its predecessor. The cover and main display of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will be larger than previous models, with five base colors available: navy, pink, silver shadow, white, and crafted black. White and crafted black colors will only be available through Samsung's website. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is expected to cost $1,100 for the 256GB model and $1,220 for the 512GB model. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 may feature a more durable foldable screen and possibly dust resistance. The main display on the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is expected to measure 6.7 inches, while the cover display could stay at 3.4 inches or climb to 3.9 inches. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Watch 7 are set to be announced at an Unpacked event in Paris, France on July 10th.
According to SmartPrix, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will cost $1,100 for the 256GB model and $1,220 for the 512GB model. Earlier today, we reported that SmartPrix also anticipates the same price hike for the Galaxy Z Fold 6, which could start at a whopping $1,899. Samsung will likely announce the Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Watch 7 at an Unpacked event in Paris, France on July 10. All three new products should be available to the public soon after. We're also excited for the event as it may be the launchpad for the Galaxy Ring smart ring.
The overall design of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is likely to be similar to that of the Galaxy Z Flip 5. However, we expect the new phone to feature a more durable foldable screen and perhaps some dust resistance too. At the moment, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 has an IPX8 rating, meaning it provides water resistance but no dust resistance at all. The main display on the Galaxy Z Flip 6 (once again) is expected to measure 6.7 inches. Depending on which rumor you believe, the cover display on the phone could stay at 3.4 inches or climb to 3.9 inches.
Inside, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 could feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset with 12GB RAM or the newer Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with 8GB RAM. Both configurations have been shown in the Geekbench database. This year's Galaxy Z Flip model could launch in four colors: Mint, Silver Shadow, Yellow, and Blue. Lower-volume colors, perhaps only available through Samsung directly, could include Black, Peach, and White.
Samsung still hasn't officially announced the rumored July 10 event. However, it should come soon as rumors suggest Samsung is holding its summer Unpacked earlier than before and in Paris as a tie-in to the upcoming Summer Olympic Games which start on July 26.
