We are likely just a few weeks away from Samsung revealing the Galaxy Z Fold 6. And a new leak surfaced today that makes this foldable phone sound even more exciting.

On X (formerly Twitter), IceUniverse recently shared a close-up image that reportedly shows the rear camera design of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6. The design appears to significantly differ in terms of the camera setup found on the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and previous models.

In fact, it also differs from the rest of Samsung’s current smartphone lineup, including the Galaxy S24 Ultra. This new revelation suggests that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 may undergo a more substantial redesign than expected, as it was not included in earlier device renders.

The camera systems on the current Galaxy Z Fold 5 and the previous Galaxy Z Fold 4 are remarkably similar, indicating that Samsung needs to make some changes in this aspect of the Galaxy Z Fold. Both versions include a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 12MP ultrawide sensor, and a 10MP telephoto one.

Until now, we’ve heard contradictory information about the camera system coming to the next Galaxy Z Fold. Some reports have said the phone would use the same image sensor as the Galaxy Z Fold 5. More recently, however, at least one rumor suggested the Galaxy Z Fold 6 would include a 200MP primary camera like the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Today’s news suggests there is indeed a change coming.

In 2024, the Galaxy Z Fold lineup may see more than just camera changes. Rumors indicate that two models could be released for the first time. Alongside a traditional Galaxy Z Fold 6, a more premium model called the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra might also arrive.

Samsung is expected to announce the next Galaxy Z Fold alongside a Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy 7 Watch on Wednesday, July 10, at a Galaxy Unpacked event in Paris. The new product should be available for purchase soon after.

You could soon ask ChatGPT how healthy your week really was
A rumored Apple Health integration would let AI read your activity and sleep data.

What’s happened? Even though Apple might be moving on to Gemini soon, leaks suggest that ChatGPT hasn't given up on Apple, yet. Recent code analysis of the ChatGPT iPhone app revealed a hidden Apple Health icon, which could be a clue that OpenAI may soon let ChatGPT access data from Apple Health. Though the feature isn’t active yet, the hidden “connector” suggests it could roll out as early as 2026. If implemented, this would allow ChatGPT to read metrics like activity, sleep, diet, breathing, and more (with your permission), and tailor responses based on real health data.

As noted by MacRumors, Strings inside the app reference health categories such as activity, sleep, diet, breathing, and hearing, suggesting the range of data that could be shared.

Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold is cool, but I’m more psyched about the future it teases
It's an eye-catching Android experiment, but it's a sign of better things to come in the near future.
Two formats of Galaxy Z TriFold

Samsung has just given us a demo of what the future is going to look like, if you’re willing to pay a fittingly high amount. The new Galaxy Z TriFold takes the concept of foldable phones, adds an extra fold to it, and changes the device into a proper tablet.

It’s surreal to see a device like that come to life. At least on the global stage. Huawei has already done it a couple of times with the dual-folding Mate XT pair, but that device leaves an exposed screen edge, runs a non-Android experience, and remains far away from the Western markets, including the US.
