Samsung's Upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6: Boxy Design, Wider Cover Display, and Improved Typing Experience

Last updated: May 31st, 2024 at 12:00 UTC+02:00

Samsung is set to release a new generation of its foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and possibly other models. Based on recent leaks and rumors, here's what we know about the upcoming devices.

Firstly, the design of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is reportedly more boxy and wider than previous models. Ice Universe, a reliable Samsung tipster, shared an image of the next Fold with a boxy design and thinner hinge. This change could make typing on the cover display easier and improve aspect ratio issues in some apps and games.

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is expected to feature improvements such as a smaller crease on its main display due to the thicker ultra-thin glass (UTG), but major hardware upgrades might be reserved for other models, like the Ultra and Slim variants. These rumored devices could launch in early 2025 with impressive specs like a 200MP ISOCELL HP2 main camera.

The Galaxy Z Fold6 is likely to debut at Samsung's upcoming Unpacked event in July, alongside the Flip 6 and other new products. The cover display of the Galaxy Z Fold6 is rumored to be wider than previous models, with a substantial 6.3 inches and a 22:9 aspect ratio.

Despite some leaks suggesting otherwise, Samsung is expected to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset in the Galaxy Z Fold6. The device will also retain the same cameras as its predecessor: a 50MP main (ISOCELL GN3), a 10MP telephoto lens, and a 12MP ultrawide camera.

Stay tuned for more updates on the Galaxy Z Fold6 and other upcoming Samsung devices.

Another live Galaxy Z Fold 6 photo leaks, shows cheap camera lens design

Sammobile Abhijeet Mishra Thursday, 30 May 2024 06:49
  • Unique Points
    • The Galaxy Z Fold 6 has been leaked from the back side, revealing a new ridged design for the camera lens rings.
    • Samsung is reportedly keeping major hardware upgrades for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra and Slim models.
  • Accuracy
    • The phone appears wider than previous Galaxy Z Fold models.
  • Deception (80%)
    The author expresses their personal opinion that the new camera lens design on the Galaxy Z Fold 6 looks 'cheap and completely out of place' on a flagship smartphone. This is an example of editorializing and pontification.
    • The most interesting–and disappointing–thing that this leak confirms is a new ridged design for the rings that surround the rear-facing camera lenses. This ridged design was first seen in a leaked photo of one of the camera lenses a few days back, and it looks cheap and completely out of place on a flagship smartphone that will cost upwards of $1500.
  • Fallacies (95%)
    The author makes several statements in the article, some of which contain fallacies. The first fallacy is an appeal to aesthetics in the statement 'This ridged design was first seen in a leaked photo of one of the camera lenses a few days back, and it looks cheap and completely out of place on a flagship smartphone that will cost upwards of $1500.' The author is expressing their own opinion about the design, which is not a logical fallacy but an appeal to aesthetics can influence people's opinions. The second fallacy is an overgeneralization in the statement 'In fact, everything we have heard and seen over the past few months suggests that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 won’t bring too many major hardware upgrades.' The author is making a sweeping statement based on rumors and leaks without any concrete evidence.
