Samsung is gearing up for its next big Galaxy Unpacked event, where the spotlight will be on the new Galaxy S24 series. But if you’re excited about foldable phones, you should keep an eye out later this year for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6.

Right now, there’s not much information about these upcoming foldables from Samsung. However, the company has now made a move that hints at what’s to come. They’ve recently registered a trademark called “Ironflex” at the Korean Intellectual Property Office. 

This term is associated with both “foldable OLED display panels” and “foldable smartphones,” suggesting a focus on display technology for future Galaxy Z devices.

It’s still not clear what “Ironflex” exactly means. The name suggests it could be about making the phones stronger and more durable. This is important because concerns about scratches, screen creases, and the strength of the hinges in the long term have made people somewhat hesitant to buy foldable phones.

It’s possible that Ironflex represents a new hinge design, a more robust screen material, or something else entirely. Regardless of the specifics, the trademark suggests Samsung is prioritizing durability improvements in its next foldable devices.

Recent reports indicate that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Flip 6 will have bigger screens both inside and out. For example, the upcoming clamshell model is expected to have a 3.9-inch cover screen, up from the Z Flip 5’s 3.4 inches. Since the first Galaxy Z Flip, which had a tiny 1.1-inch display, Samsung has been steadily increasing the size of these screens.

There are also hints that Samsung is working on making their new foldable phones thinner. Plus, there’s a rumor about the Galaxy Z Flip 6 getting a 50MP main camera.
