Samsung‘s foldable ambitions are likely to go beyond the recent Galaxy Z Fold 6 if the rumors are to be believed. The speculation centers on a slimmer, possibly more premium foldable phone, codenamed “Q6A,” which has been making the rounds for months. Now, a report by GalaxyClub offers some of the first details on its camera and a possible launch time frame.
The leak suggests that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim (model number SM-F958N) will feature a familiar 10MP front-facing camera on the cover screen. The specifics of the main and telephoto sensors are still unknown, but the leak suggests it will include a 12MP ultrawide camera.
More significantly, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim could introduce the most notable under-display camera (UPC) upgrade yet. Instead of the standard Z Fold 6’s 4MP sensor, the Slim variant is said to come with a 5MP UPC.
The upgrade should mean improvement in image quality for selfies when the phone is unfolded but don’t expect a dramatic difference, as the change is fairly minor.
According to previous leaks, the Z Fold 6 Slim will measure 10mm when folded and will feature a 6.5-inch cover screen and an 8-inch foldable main display. Interestingly, it might also be the first Samsung foldable to use titanium in its construction.
There’s a caveat, however. While the Galaxy Z Fold 6 enjoys global availability, the Z Fold 6 Slim’s release might be more limited. Current rumors hint at a possible launch only in Korea and perhaps China, with European and North American markets notably missing from the leaks.
A report from The Chosun Daily suggests the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim will go official in Korea on the September 25 launch date for the Z Fold 6 Slim — just a month from now. It is expected to cost around 2.8 million won (approximately $2,100), which is $200 more than the starting price of standard Z Fold 6.
