A recent leak has surfaced, providing a tantalizing glimpse into the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, revealing a major overhaul in its camera design. Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and its predecessors, the Galaxy Z Fold 6’s camera setup appears significantly different, setting it apart from the current Samsung smartphone lineup, including the Galaxy S24 Ultra. This revelation hints at a more comprehensive redesign than initially anticipated, as earlier device renders did not incorporate these changes.
The current Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 4 share similar camera systems, suggesting the need for Samsung to revamp this aspect of the Galaxy Z Fold. Both models feature a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 12MP ultrawide sensor, and a 10MP telephoto lens. However, conflicting rumors have circulated regarding the camera system of the next Galaxy Z Fold. While some reports indicate the phone may retain the same image sensor as the Galaxy Z Fold 5, a more recent rumor suggests the Galaxy Z Fold 6 could boast a 200MP primary camera, akin to the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Today’s leak lends credence to the notion that a significant camera upgrade is in store.
In addition to camera enhancements, the Galaxy Z Fold lineup may witness further changes in 2024. Rumors abound that Samsung may release two models for the first time, including a traditional Galaxy Z Fold 6 and a premium Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra. Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 6, alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy 7 Watch, at a Galaxy Unpacked event in Paris on July 10th. The new products are anticipated to be available for purchase shortly after the announcement.
