Mobile phone enthusiasts far and wide are looking forward to the upcoming foldable flagship phone hitting the stage at the next Unpacked event. The latter should be hosted in Paris in early July, a few weeks before the 2024 Olympic Games start. So far, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 has miraculously managed to avoid getting leaked in photos, but one design detail appears to have emerged.
Even though the Galaxy Z Fold 6 might not see any significant upgrades, Samsung might change some small design details around the lenses. Namely, the rings surrounding the rear-facing cameras could have a more prominent ridged design, according to a new tip from X user .
The image above, shared by the X user, is accompanied by the caption “the camera detail design of [the] Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6.”
It's unclear if this photo shows an actual Galaxy Z Fold 6 camera element, a dummy unit, or a completely different phone that has a ridged camera ring and was used as an example of what the Galaxy Z Fold 6's main camera rings could look like.
Samsung transitioned from camera housings to individual camera rings and cutouts a few years ago. However, the Galaxy Z Fold is the only premium Samsung phone series that still has a bit of a hump around all of its rear-facing cameras.
Early indicate that won't change with the Galaxy Z Fold 6, but this new leak suggests that the camera rings protruding out from the camera housing will be refreshed.
There are also reports that Samsung could release a model, and if it does, it remains to be seen if both the standard and the Ultra will share the camera ring design.
Aside from camera specs, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 might have a boxier design with a . The foldable screen could also have a crease. Samsung should unveil the phone at Unpacked.
To our knowledge, Samsung has never used a ridged design for camera rings before. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 would be a first. In general, these ridges can reflect light in interesting ways and create a more premium feel if done right, but on the other hand, they can also be dust magnets and look a bit outdated and not-so-premium, especially when dirty.
