Another credible source has confirmed the existence of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra in Samsung’s pipeline. Noted X tipster Ice Universe recently took to the platform to state that the Korean firm is working on an Ultra foldable this year. Unfortunately, details about its specs and design are unavailable, so it is unclear what differentiates it from the standard version.
Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra is real, tipster claims
Rumors about Samsung launching three foldables in 2024 have been around for a long time. Alongside the regular Gaalxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, the company was said to introduce a third new foldable this year. However, there has been confusion about what the third model would offer. Some said it would be a mid-range offering, while others hinted at a more powerful Fold.
Recent developments are inclined towards the latter. The device in question reportedly has a model number SM-S948, which confirms a higher-specced Ultra version. Samsung devices with “8” at the end of their model numbers are usually the beefiest in the lineup—Galaxy S24 Ultra is SM-S928. This means the third foldable will be called the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra.
The same has just been confirmed by tipster Ice Universe, who has an excellent track record of Samsung leaks. However, they couldn’t share further details. What the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra brings to the table is still a mystery. Samsung could offer better cameras, a stronger build with a titanium frame, and other improvements. Maybe it will make room for a built-in S Pen as well.
Considering the lack of information about the Ultra foldable, the device could still be in the early stages of development. The other two upcoming foldables—Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6—have already been subject to numerous leaks. They may go official as early as July. The Ultra version, meanwhile, could arrive a few months later. We should get a clearer picture soon.
The standard version is thinner and lighter
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 will address a few complaints about Samsung’s book-type foldables. The new model is a lot thinner and lighter than its predecessor, the same source revealed earlier today. It weighs 239 grams, down from 253 grams. The device measures 12.1mm in thickness when folded and 5.6mm when unfolded. Samsung has also made it wider, allowing for a wider cover display. Leaks about the new foldables should come more frequently closer to their launch.
