Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Fold 6 leaked

Spoiling Samsung's reveal party next week.                               [The Morning After]( It's Thursday, July 4, 2024. We already told you what to expect, but if you demand more proof, [the leakers will oblige](. This time, @evleaks on X released copies of product pages (and images) for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. The main spec changes are for the flip. Previous Galaxy Z Flip models only had 12-megapixel rear cameras, so the Flip 6's purported 50-megapixel wide camera (paired with a 12-megapixel ultrawide) is a huge upgrade. If the leak is accurate, it'll also have a bigger battery. According to the product pages, Samsung didn't give the Galaxy Z Fold 6 many substantial upgrades, but the new model will have a slightly larger front display. Conversely, the folding main display is slightly smaller and the phone is a bit thinner. The leak spoils Samsung’s July 10 party a little, but we reckon the company has plenty more to show off, including the official debut of its Galaxy Ring, Galaxy Watch 7, Galaxy Watch Ultra, Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. That’s a lot to get through in a single presentation — hopefully, Samsung keeps a tight run-time for my sanity. – Mat Smith The biggest stories you might have missed [Your next webcam could be a Game Boy Camera]( [The best early Amazon Prime Day deals for 2024]( [What Meta should change about Threads]( ​​You can get these reports delivered daily direct to your inbox.
