Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 launch is still months away, but countless rumours and leaks seem to be spoiling Samsung's Unpacked event. Most recently, alleged case renders of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 have leaked on the Web. The transparent protective cases indicate a similar design language to that of Galaxy Z Fold 4. The cutout for the LED flash has moved from the bottom of the camera module to the side. The upcoming model could come with slight changes in the camera bar as well. Samsung is expected to release the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and the Galaxy Z Flip 5 later this year in July.

Well-known tipster Ice Universe (@UniverseIce) has posted alleged renders of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 cases. The leaked images hint that Samsung is keeping things familiar with the design of the new foldable. The transparent cases are seen with cut-outs for the power button and volume rockers on the spines and the bottom for the speaker and USB Type-C port. There is a cut-out at the rear to show off the camera unit touting much of the same design choices as its predecessor. The LED flash seems to have moved right next to the camera, whereas the Galaxy Z Fold 4 features the flash right under the triple rear cameras.
