New Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Leak Reveals Updated Camera Design

Samsung's next foldable phone, the Galaxy Z Fold 6, is expected to launch in July alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 6. Leaks from tipster Ice Universe suggest some design changes compared to the previous Fold model, the Z Fold 5.

Less Visible Crease on Main Display

One of the most anticipated improvements is a less visible crease on the main foldable display. While Ice Universe claims the crease won't be completely eliminated, it should be less noticeable. This could be achieved by using a thicker form of ultra-thin glass (UTG).

Redesigned Rear Camera Module

Leaked images hint at a new design for the rear camera module. Instead of the circular glass covering seen on the Z Fold 5, the Z Fold 6 might sport a circular casing with a textured ring around the camera sensor.

Other Expected Upgrades

• Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC
• RAM: 12GB (other options possible)
• Battery: 4,400mAh with 25W fast charging
• Design: New boxier design, wider outer screen, thinner and lighter overall

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5

For comparison, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 features a durable design with a Gorilla Glass Victus 2 front and back, an aluminum frame, and IPX8 water resistance. It supports a Nano-SIM and eSIM, or dual SIM configuration. The device has a foldable 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display with a 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10+, and a 6.2-inch cover display, also Dynamic AMOLED 2X with the same refresh rate. It runs on Android 13 (upgradable to Android 14) with One UI 6.1, powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, and an octa-core CPU with Adreno 740 GPU.

Memory options include 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB, all with 12GB RAM and UFS 4.0. The triple rear camera setup includes a 50MP wide, 10MP telephoto, and 12MP ultrawide lens. The front camera under the display is 4MP, with a 10MP cover camera. Audio features include stereo speakers and 32-bit/384kHz audio. Connectivity options cover Wi-Fi 6e, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and USB Type-C. The 4400mAh battery supports 25W wired, 15W wireless, and 4.5W reverse wireless charging. Available colors are Icy Blue, Phantom Black, Cream, Gray, and Blue.

Samsung hasn't officially confirmed any details about the Galaxy Z Fold 6. We'll likely have to wait for the official launch in July to know for sure about the final design, specifications, and pricing.
