Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 foldable phones in 2024, as successors to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5, which were introduced in July this year. The company has not yet officially announced these models. However, judging by previous launch cycles, the next generation of foldable smartphones could be unveiled a few months after the launch of the purported Galaxy S24 lineup. The anticipated Galaxy S24 flagship models are tipped to be introduced on January 17, 2024 in San Jose, US. Meanwhile, a recent tip suggests that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 will feature larger displays than their preceding models.

DSCC CEO Ross Young (@DSCCRoss) shared in a post on X that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will feature bigger displays than what their preceding models came with. Young added that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will sport a 3.9-inch cover panel. He did not add any more details about the purported foldable smartphones but added that details about the exact sizes of their screens will be tipped in a DSCC Foldable Report.

Notably, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 comes with a 3.4-inch Super AMOLED folder-shaped outer display and a 6.7-inch full-HD+ (1,080x2,640 pixels) Dynamic AMOLED 2X Infinity Flex main screen. The Galaxy Z Fold 5, on the other hand, has a 7.6-inch QXGA+ (2,176 x 1,812 pixels) Dynamic AMOLED 2X Infinity Flex inner display and a 6.2-inch full-HD+ (2,316 x 904 pixels) Dynamic AMOLED 2X cover screen.

The phones ship with Android 13-based OneUI 5.1.1. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 is backed by a 3,700mAh battery with 25W wired, Fast Wireless Charging 2.0 and Wireless PowerShare support. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 shares similar charging capacities but packs a 4,400mAh battery.
