Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 specs (rumored)

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 will feature a similar design as the current Z Fold 4. The foldable phone is said to come with a 7.6-inch primary display with a 2K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate.

The cover display sized 6.2 inches will comparatively have a lower resolution due to its narrow design. Both screens will be AMOLED panels offering deep blacks.

The Z Fold  5 is expected to boast a triple camera system on the back with a 50MP main lens, a 12MP ultra-wide lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens. Upfront, it may feature a 10MP camera for selfies.

At the helm, the foldable phone will be powered by a custom Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC paired with 12GB of RAM and up to 1TB of internal storage. This time, thanks to the chipset, the phone is expected to have LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage.

The battery may remain the same as the predecessor, which means we are seeing a 4,400mAh cell. However, the charging may get an upgrade to a faster 45W from slower 25W fast charging.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 specs (rumored)

Things change on the Galaxy Z Flip 5 side of things. That’s mainly because Samsung is said to bring a massive change to its secondary display.

The primary display on the inside may remain the same sized 6.7 inches. It will refresh at 120Hz and have an FHD+ resolution. It is expected to sport a 12MP + 12MP dual-rear camera system and come powered by a custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.
