Samsung‘s upcoming foldable smartphone, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 has just been certified by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The smartphone bears the model number SM-F936U and is listed to feature Qualcomm’s Smart Transmit feature for improved uplink.

While the FCC listing doesn’t reveal much about the device, it shows that the smartphone will come with support for all sorts of networks, ranging from 2G to mmWave 5G. The Wi-Fi model will also get an upgrade bringing ax support. The FCC listing equally reveals the device will come with support for S Pen just like the Galaxy Z Fold 3.

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 4 alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 4 on August 4 but there is no official confirmation to that effect. If the space of certification, rumors, and leaks are anything to go by, there is no doubt that the launch is imminent. Aside from the FCC certification, the Z Fold 4 was recently spotted on GeekBench. Mock-up cases for both the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 were put up for pre-orders recently, further confirming that the launch is close by.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 is expected to be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset paired with 12GB of RAM. The phone will also come with up to 1TB of storage while it will cram a 4,400mAh battery under the hood.

Earlier on, there were rumors that the Fold 4 will have a less-prominent crease than the fold 3 as well as a better camera setup. We expect the company to reveal the launch details soon.

Samsung‘s latest launch event unveiled the Galaxy S22 Ultra which came with the much loved S Pen that was popularized by their iconic Galaxy Note series devices. But it appears that Samsung is not planning to keep the S Pen exclusive to the S22 Ultra as a recent report stated that the next Samsung foldable will also be getting a dedicated S Pen.

According to a report from TheElec, industry sources have informed that the South-Korean tech giant has decided to install an S Pen stylus in its upcoming foldable, dubbed the Galaxy Z Fold4. The device is also said to launch in the second half of 2022.

The current Galaxy Z Fold3 also offers support for S Pen Fold Edition and the S Pen Pro, however, the stylus needs to be bought separately and the device does not feature a dedicated silo to house the stylus inside its body. Galaxy Z Fold3 users usually install a back cover to their device to house the stylus on the outside.

Recent reports have revealed that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 outsold the Galaxy Z Fold3. With the integration of the S Pen inside the device’s body, Samsung is hoping to make it the spotlight feature of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold4, driving up its sales numbers compared to the current model.

Other than that, the Galaxy Z Fold4 is expected to not come with any major design changes compared to the Z Fold3. The report has stated that the Galaxy Z Fold4 will have a 7.56-inch inner foldable display, while the external display is reported to measure around 6.19-inches.
