TL;DR
- A purported official spec sheet of the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 6 has leaked.
- The specs indicate a battery and camera upgrade.
- The rest of the specs are mostly unchanged from the Z Flip 5.
We just got our hands on everything there is to know about the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and it looks like Samsung’s smallest foldable doesn’t want to be left behind. Smartprix has released a seemingly official Galaxy Z Flip 6 spec sheet, giving us a pretty good idea of what to expect from Samsung’s 2024 flip phone.
If the leak is accurate, Samsung is addressing two main areas with the Galaxy Z Flip 6. First, the phone could come with a larger 4,000 mAh battery, compared to 3,700 mAh in the Z Flip 5. This should address the problem. ‘one of the biggest complaints about the previous model. There is no mention of charging speed in the leaked information, but it will likely remain capped at 25 watts.
The other big upgrade is the main camera sensor on the back, which is listed as a 50MP, f/1.8 shooter, potentially the same one found in the Z Fold 5. The rest of The camera setup, however, appears to be unchanged. , with the same 12MP and 10MP ultra-wide selfie shooters from last year.
The spec sheet also confirms that the phone will run on the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy, just like the Galaxy S24 series. Unfortunately, that’s where the upgrades stop.
The Z Flip 6 is listed to sport a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED (2640 x 1080 pixels, 120 Hz) for the main display and a 3.4-inch Super AMOLED cover display (720 x 748 pixels). These display specifications are basically unchanged from the Galaxy Z Flip 5, but there could be an increase in maximum brightness.
The dimensions and weight of the device are also virtually the same as the Z Flip 5, measuring 165.1 x 71.9 x 6.9mm unfolded and 85.1 x 71.9 x 14.9mm folded, for a weight of 187 g. It’s still commendable that Samsung managed to fit a larger battery into the same chassis.
For another year, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 won’t have DeX mode, a feature many users were hoping for. However, we can still hope for other quality of life improvements, such as a less visible crease and a thinner hinge.
The Z Flip 6 is expected to come in 256GB and 512GB storage options, but rumors suggest a $100 increase in its starting price. As we recently reported, the Z Flip 6 is expected to cost $1,099 for the base 256GB model. The phone is expected to debut at the Galaxy Unpacked event, which is all but confirmed to be held July 10 in Paris.
