Samsung’s new foldable takes a giant step forward in camera and battery

Folding seems to be more than a fashion and has become essential and if there is a brand that is leading the way in this segment, it is Samsung. Their Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 are about to be released and we’ve already heard a few rumors. Concerning the more compact of the two, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, we know that it will arrive with a more ambitious external screen and we have even seen some renderings of its appearance. Yes, we’ll have to wait until Galaxy Unpacked on July 10 to dispel doubts, but that Latest leak leaves very little to the imagination regarding the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6

.

Because a few hours ago the technical sheet of both was practically completely leaked and, just like in the Fold, it looks like a continued bet with the minimum of essential changes for a new generation, in the Galaxy Z Flip 6 there are important surprises.

Always the same with three new features that make the difference

The leak comes from Smartprix, which exclusively published the supposed technical sheet on the Samsung site with the specifications of the Galaxy Z Flip 6, which we will now detail. As for the chip, Samsung’s impending foldable will integrate with Qualcomm’s latest and greatest

the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. Unfortunately, it does not appear which versions of RAM will accompany the Soc.

The camera will go up a level in the Galaxy Z Flip 6 because if the previous generation was satisfied with a 12 megapixel main sensor, the next one will integrate a 50 MP lens. Where there is no change is in the rest of the cameras, with a secondary that is still 12 MP and one of 10 MP for the front sensor.

Another key change that appears in this leaked datasheet is a much bigger battery

. Thus, it will go from the 3,700 mAh of the Z Flip 5 to 4,000 mAh in the Z Flip 6, which, accompanied by hardware efficiency and software optimization, should result in improved autonomy to alleviate one of the most heard complaints on the market from the previous generation. . Regarding charging, it seems that it will continue to be 25W.

From there, a few more new features in the specifications of a fairly refined phone in itself, although it is worth considering if you plan to check out: we are talking about an increase in prices of $100, with a base MSRP of $1,099 for the simplest 256GB version. We’ll clear up any doubts in less than a month.
