Some of those are conflicting whereas others appear extra plausible given the model’s reasonably relaxed stance on foldables regardless of loads of new competitors in the identical house. The Korean model’s Galaxy S sequence this 12 months noticed a noticeable change from going huge on specs to a deeper focus on generative AI-features and we count on the identical to occur with its foldable sequence this 12 months as properly. However, in contrast to common slate-like smartphones, foldables are all about design.

The first set of freshly leaked info comes from X (previously Twitter) by Chun Bhai (@chunvn8888) who factors out that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 identical to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is not going to have a silo for its S-Pen. Just just like the Galaxy Z Fold 5, one can count on the brand new S-Pen to be bought and mounted on an non-compulsory case. There have been a number of studies about Samsung trying to create a thinner S-Pen that may match contained in the Galaxy Z Fold’s reasonably slim body (when unfolded), but it looks like it will not occur in 2024. However, a latest patent by Samsung additionally revealed different concepts like snapping the S-Pen onto a facet (or again) of the foldable and even making it a removable a part of the foldable’s outer body.

The second bit comes from Naver by a poster referred to as yeux1122 who’s findings are largely related to the one above, but with extra element. In the put up, the tipster explains that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will provide an improved UTG major show, a stronger hinge with lowered thickness, and an improved below show digital camera as properly. The put up additionally states that the design of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 might be related to the newer Galaxy S24 sequence.
The supply additional provides that the ratio of the quilt show is anticipated to change and could possibly be largely related to what Chinese rivals (OnePlus Open, Vivo X Fold 2 and extra) at present have on provide. These adjustments are fairly totally different in contrast to the extra drastic design adjustments talked about in a earlier report, which just about appeared like a redesign with wider Pixel Fold-like look.
This supply additionally mentions that the Galaxy Z Fold 6’s cameras will stay related to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 with enhancements coming primarily from the brand new ISP.
