Samsung is slat to bring out theGalaxy Z Fold 6 — along with the Z Flip 6 , Galaxy Watch 7 series , and theGalaxy Ring — sometime next calendar month . But ahead of the stately announcement , a flurry of leaks has given us a fairly good idea of the massive design variety that the Fold 6 will undergo . The improvement , however , will come with a Leontyne Price tramp , as a Modern leakage points out .
sleazy foldable phonesare a rare sight , and Samsung has never been one to chase after affordability . After all , the Fold has been its premier product for the last half - decade . The Fold 5 ’s $ 1,800 poser price already leaves most buyers watery-eyed - eyed , and the Fold 6 jeopardise to contribute on a flood lamp . The Galaxy Z Fold 6 will have a starting price of $ 1,899 , according to seasoned leaker@OnLeaks , and will potentially be $ 2,259 for the highest stipulation . This is very close to theoriginal Galaxy Fold’shigh toll when it was released in 2019 .

Despite the damage hike , the storage options remain unchanged from last twelvemonth . The Galaxy Z Fold 6 will once again have a base 256 GB of storage , along with other options with 512 GB or 1 TB of storage — same as the Z Fold 5 . There have n’t been any rumors or leaks about Samsung upgrading the RAM to 16 GB , so we suspect it will stupefy to 12 GB like last class . A Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor is almost certain to power the folding .
The Z Fold 6 may also descend in new color , including navy blue , silver shadow , and pink . Another reputed leaker , Evan Blass , total that there will be a yellowish shade ( which may or may not be similar to theGalaxy S24 Ultra‘s titanium chickenhearted ) and an on-line - undivided snowy .
New design and AI features to justify the price hike
Samsung is expected tocompletely overhaul the Fold 6 ’s designby desex the awkwardly sized outer presentation , thus improving its ergonomics . The Fold 6 is expected to move to a more established 20:9 face ratio for the outer display and aside from the unusual and restrictive narrow 23.5:9 proportion on the Fold 5 . In addition , Samsung is expect to adopt the Galaxy S24 Ultra ’s flat edges and make the phone significantly thinner and lighter than previous generation .
As per the information allow for by OnLeaks and published by tech blogSmartprix , Samsung will likely swear on software trait such as out - of - the - boxGalaxy AIfeatures , along with the newer plan , to justify the price hike . As with old launch , we can expect Samsung to offer a free storage upgrade if you preorder the Galaxy Z Fold 6 , along with handsome redemption value on older Samsung flagship .
But even with those basic offers , the $ 1,900 price tag is far from pleasing and makes us go for for the cheaper Fold 6 that was previously rumour . at the same time , some doubt still lingers about theFold 6 Ultra , which , if it really exists , could be more expensive than the standard manakin .
