feels more real than ever, even though we’re a little over one month away from its expected official unveiling at Unpacked. By the sound of it, some aspects got better, while others have not. And according to some new bits of information, foldable screen brightness falls in the latter category.

reminds us of several hardware characteristics of the upcoming device and also seems to reveal at least one extra detail concerning the foldable panel’s brightness.

Namely, the Galaxy Z Fold 5’s 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel will have a 1-120Hz refresh rate and reach 1,200 nits of brightness, just like the ongoing

. It’s unclear if the cover screen got any brighter, but its dimensions and other specs appear to be the same (6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X, 48-120Hz).

Also unchanged seems to be the camera system. Apparently, the main setup comprises a 50MP primary, 10MP telephoto, and 12MP ultra-wide units. Then, the foldable panel hides a 4MP under-display camera, while the cover screen has a 10MP selfie sensor embedded into it.

appears to have developed a more powerful, slicker, and lighter foldable phone, but it hasn’t pushed the bar in every area.
