Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition leaks

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition leaks

Samsung is preparing to release a special edition of its foldable Galaxy Z Fold 6. Leaked images have given us a taste of what we can expect from this upcoming device.

The photos confirm that the phone has a triple rear camera setup, although it likely won’t include a periscope telephoto lens for improved zoom.

On the right edge there is a power button and a volume rocker, which can also serve as a fingerprint sensor. The frame appears to be flat, potentially improving grip and durability.

Excitingly, the leaked images suggest that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition will be available in at least two color options: a classic dark shade and a striking gold finish.

This bold gold option could help differentiate the special edition and appeal to those who want a more luxurious look.

Android Headlines first reported on this special edition a month ago, noting that it would have a brushed metal back for a more rugged appearance. The new photos seem to confirm this design choice.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold specs leaked

While the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition is expected to be unveiled before the end of the year and will likely use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, those hoping to buy it might be disappointed. According to rumors, Samsung will launch the phone exclusively in China and South Korea.

One of the most striking aspects of the device is its thinness. Early rumors called it the “Galaxy Z Fold Slim,” and its alleged dimensions – just 4.9mm thick when unfolded and 10.6mm when folded – explain why. Despite the smaller size, the display aspect ratio is expected to remain the same as other Fold models.

Foldable phones have become increasingly popular in recent years, but some apps like Gboard have not yet fully optimized their interfaces for these devices. However, Android Authority’s Mishaal Rahman spotted a new Gboard UI on his Galaxy Z Fold 6 that was activated after updating to version 14.6.02-beta. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition aims to combine innovative design with practical features, positioning itself as a strong competitor in the foldable phone market.
