Galaxy Z Fold 6 camera: what to expect
- 50 MP main sensor with f/1.8 aperture and OIS;
- Secondary 10MP telephoto lens with f/2.4 aperture, OIS and 3x optical zoom;
- 12MP ultra wide angle with f/2.2 aperture.
We're not sure how reliable this information is, and Samsung may be working on upgrading the Z Fold 6's camera as we speak (it's better!), so take the info above with tweezers.
Galaxy Z Fold 6 storage: what to expect
The Galaxy Z Fold 6's storage situation is expected to remain more or less the same compared to its predecessor. We expect 12/256 GB as the base configuration and a higher variant with 1 TB of storage. At this point, there is no information on a 16GB RAM model, but that could change, as Samsung is one of the largest memory chip makers, and this would be a very simple upgrade to include .
As usual, no microSD card slot is provided on the Galaxy Z Fold 6, even if mid-range models like the A54 still sport one.
Galaxy Z Fold 6 design: what the rumors say so far
Expected Galaxy Z Fold 6 display specifications
THE Galaxy Z fold 5 sports a 6.2-inch, 904 x 2316 pixel, 23.1:9 ratio cover display. In comparison, the Honor the Magic V2 has a 6.43-inch, 1060 x 2376 pixel, 20:9 aspect ratio screen cover which is, in our opinion, much more usable.
Galaxy Z Fold 6 Battery and Charging Specs: What to Expect
The battery and charging of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 are unknown at this time. We won't hold our breath for a substantial improvement in battery capacity, especially since Samsung is trying to make the phone thinner and lighter and integrate the S Pen inside as well.
Charging will likely also cap at 25W, just like the previous model, but stay tuned for surprises on that.
Expected Galaxy Z Fold 6 Features and Software
As for the expected new features, it's too early to tell, but it's common sense to expect improvements in multitasking and multi-window modes, as well as revisions to the taskbar regarding applications active.
Expected Galaxy Z Fold 6 hardware
We expect the Z Fold 6 to feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 onboard, despite the fact that we might get a Plus version of the chipset in the meantime. We don't expect Exynos variants to make the cut, as the Korean company relies heavily on Snapdragon for its foldables. What we are waiting for is a specially optimized version of the Snapdragon 8 generation 3 bearing the nickname “For Galaxy”. This actually means that clock rates will be a bit higher, resulting in slightly better benchmark scores. If thermal throttling is controlled, of course.
