It was reported last month that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 may offer IP58-rated dust and water resistance. However, reliable tipster Ice Universe, who holds a good track record for Samsung leaks, has claimed that the Z Fold 5 does not have an IP58 rating.
Hence, it seems likely that the Galaxy Z Fold 5 will maintain the IPX8 water resistance level found in its predecessor models. According to another tweet from the tipster, the Z Fold 5 will also feature a similar display crease on the inner foldable screen as the Z Fold 4.
Contrary to earlier reports suggesting that Samsung has implemented a new waterdrop hinge to decrease the display crease, the tipster’s claim suggests that the crease on the Z Fold 5 will be virtually indistinguishable from that of the Z Fold 4.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 specifications (rumored)
Reports have revealed that the Galaxy Z Fold 5 will have a 7.6-inch inner foldable display and a 6.2-inch cover display. Both AMOLED panels will support a 120Hz refresh rate. The device is expected to come preloaded with the One UI 5.1.1-based Android 13 OS. For security, it will have a side-facing fingerprint sensor.
The Z Fold 5 will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset, which works at 3.36GHz. It will be equipped with 12 GB of LPDDR5x RAM and up to 1 TB of UFS 4.0 storage. It may house a 4,400mAh battery with 25W fast charging and 15W wireless charging support.
It will have a 10-megapixel front-facing camera and a 4-megapixel under-screen camera on the inside. The rear camera setup of the device will have an OIS-enabled 50-megapixel main camera, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 12-megapixel telephoto camera.
