With Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event right around the corner — it’s rumored to be taking place in Paris on July 10 — it shouldn’t surprise you that more details about the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 have leaked. The latest leak comes from @OnLeaks on X (formerly Twitter) and shows what seems to be the first official image of the upcoming foldable.

The image appears to be an official marketing one, possibly f0r Russia (the text looks like Cyrillic), that essentially confirms many of the rumors we’ve gotten earlier. It shows a Galaxy Z Fold 6 that’s much more angular, with sharper edges and a wider cover screen. The sides also appear to be thinner, though it’ll be hard to know for sure until we see it side by side with the previous generation. The rear shows a triple camera array that’s expected to consist of a possible 200-megapixel primary sensor paired with a 10MP telephoto and 12MP ultrawide camera.

The color option pictured is silver or gray –possibly the “Silver Shadow” color that was rumored earlier. The Fold 6 is expected to launch with five colors to choose from.

As for the Galaxy Z Flip 6, the latest leak matches many of the unofficial renders we’ve seen. You’re looking at a more angular device with sharper edges. There’s expected to be a wider cover display, though we’ve also gotten some contradictory information about that, so it’s possible that it may not change from the 3.4 inches of the Flip 5. The Flip 6 is also expected to be a bit thicker this year, potentially to accommodate a larger battery, which would address one of our major complaints about previous generations of the device.

The image shows the Z Flip 6 with dual camera sensors that are also expected to get an upgrade to a 50MP main sensor. The ultrawide camera specs haven’t leaked yet, and the Flip 6 won’t have a telephoto camera. As for color options, the Flip 6 pictured in the image appears to be blue along the sides, which matches up with the Light Blue color option revealed by leaker Ross Young, who also said the Flip 6 would come with seven color options.

At this point, we’re only weeks away from Samsung Galaxy Unpacked, so you won’t have to wait too long to get the full reveal of the Fold 6 and Flip 6, as well as details about rumored models like the Z Fold 6 Ultra.

We just got an early tease for Samsung’s next folding phones

Samsung, like most other phone manufacturers, sticks to a pretty predictable schedule: a new numbered iteration per model per year. That's why we weren't surprised to hear that a Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7 were slated for 2025, but we now have confirmation. Their codenames just leaked, and we also learned of an unexpected third model.

GalaxyClub broke the news after receiving information from Samsung. According to the site, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is code-named B7, while the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is code-named Q7. There's also a third model with the code name Q7M, but it's not clear what this entry actually is. Since it bears a derivative code name, this handset is likely a spinoff of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 — though we don't know what that entails.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition is slimmer, yet more powerful

Samsung has just pulled a bit of a surprise by giving a svelte design makeover to its flagship foldable phone. Earlier today, the company introduced the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition in its home market.

The latest foldable phone from Samsung makes a couple of key upgrades in the design and camera departments. First, Samsung has shaved off 1.5 millimeters of thickness compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The weight, however, has only reduced by 3 grams, so it's hardly much of a difference.

October 21 will be a big day for Samsung foldables
Multi-tasking on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6.

Yesterday, we published a story speculating on the exact launch date for the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition. That story suggested the date wouldn't be October 18 as we had previously believed, but perhaps October 25. As it turns out, both were wrong. Samsung released a video confirming the official launch date of its latest foldable handset, and it's October 21.

At only 12 seconds long, the video is light on information. Samsung's Korean site says the announcement is for "a new Galaxy with yet another innovation." While it doesn't specifically name the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, it doesn't take a psychic to figure out what the event is about, especially with the number of leaks that have already emerged about this phone.
