The features and design of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 model have started to become clear. So what will Samsung's next clamshell phone offer? Here are the expected features of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6...
Samsung will hold this year's second Galaxy Unpacked event on 10 July. At this event, Galaxy Z Flip 6 & Fold 6, Galaxy Ring, Galaxy Watch 7 and new foldable phones are expected to be introduced.
According to current reports, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will appear in a more compact structure while remaining faithful to the design of its predecessor. This means sharper corners and a square appearance. Moreover, it is on the agenda that Samsung will introduce a thinner hinge mechanism while maintaining the IPX8 water resistance rating.
Galaxy Z Flip 6 will have a 6.7-inch foldable screen on the front. This screen, which will be supported by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, is likely to offer FHD + resolution and 1-120Hz variable refresh rate. The cover section will have a 3.4-inch AMOLED panel as in the previous model. However, this time it is expected to offer 120Hz refresh rate. At the center of the phone, we will encounter the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset paired with 8GB/12GB RAM.
Leaks point to a 4,000mAh battery capacity compared to the 3,700mAh found in the Z Flip 5. As for the camera department, it has been confirmed that there will be a switch from the 12MP sensor found in the Z Flip 5 to the new 50MP primary sensor. This could provide a significant improvement in image quality, especially in low light conditions. The secondary ultra-wide camera and selfie camera are expected to remain the same.
However, we may encounter more improvements in the software section. In addition, while the camera layout will remain horizontal, there will be a camera bump highlighted with the current colour of the device. The secondary ultra-wide camera and selfie sensors will remain the same. However, we may encounter more improvements in the software section.
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is likely to come with Android 14 and Samsung's One UI 6.1.1 software. It's also expected to retain stereo speakers and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. Samsung will officially unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 in July. We also expect to see the Galaxy Watch 7 series, the new Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Ring at the Unpacked event.
