Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 Leaks and Rumors
As usual, Samsung could not protect the device’s information from leaks. By now there are already a bunch of leaks and rumors that help us with the speculation of what’s new we get to see in the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 6.
Design
Starting with the design, we will not see much difference in comparison to the current Galaxy Z Flip5. As per rumors, there will be minor changes in the Flip 6 dimension and its bezels. We are expecting an improved hinge mechanism in the upcoming flip phone.
The device measures 165.0 x 71.7 x 7.4mm in dimension, a bit thicker than Flip5. On the right side, there is a Power and Volume buttons. The power button will also act as a fingerprint sensor. SIM Tray can be found on the left side, while Type C port and Speaker grille are at the bottom.
Colors
Thanks to the information shared by the CEO of DSCC, Ross Young. As per Ross, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will be available in seven color options. These could be Light Blue, Mint, Silver Shadow, Yellow, Crafted Black, Peach, and White.
The combination of the main color with the black (display color) turns the Flip phone into an attractive foldable. Last year Samsung increased the cover display size which didn’t leave much space for the company to add colors on both sides, but the screen side already looks black so it also looks like the combination of two colors when unfolded. And Galaxy Z Flip 6 also going to have similar pattern.
Display
There isn’t much information on the display department. But from the rumors, the Flip6 will come with a 6.7-inch Inner Display and the outer cover display will be slightly bigger measuring 3.9-inch.
As per my guess, the Galaxy Z Flip6 will also retain the folder shape of the cover screen. Both the display will support 120Hz refresh rate.
Processor
There are multiple rumors related to the SoC on the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip6. Recently there was a Geekbench score leak that suggested the device will come with last year’s flagship Snapdragon chip, but that turned out to be a false rumor. As per more trusted source, the upcoming clamshell will be powered with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC in some countries.
Why some countries? This is because there is also a rumor that Samsung may adopt dual SoC tactics. If it’s true, the Galaxy Z Flip6 will come with Exynos 2400 SoC in the rest of the countries.
Camera
The Flip series is long overdue for a major camera improvement. And it looks like the wait will end with Galaxy Z Flip 6. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is rumored to don a 50MP main rear camera along with a 12MP ultrawide camera. There is no information about the selfie camera, but it seems that it will not get an upgrade.
