A wild rumor appeared not long ago, saying that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra is coming. That rumor was quickly forgotten as all focus was shifted to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE. Well, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra has surfaced again, kind of, but it’s complicated.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra will carry a model number SM-F958, says Galaxy Club. Samsung uses an ‘8’ as the last digit for the model number of its ‘Ultra’ devices. So this fits. As an example, the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s model number is SM-S928.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra gets mentioned again, but… it’s complicated
So, this sounds good, right? Well, yes, but there’s a catch. Only one Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra model is being prepared right now, the SM-F958N. That ‘N’ is kind of a problem, as it indicates the model for the South Korean market. In other words, Samsung’s homeland.
If things don’t change, this indicates that only South Korea will get the ‘Ultra’ model of the device. More model numbers could surface, though. We still don’t know anything about this ‘Ultra’ model.
The ‘Ultra’ moniker means that it will have to be different than the regular Galaxy Z Fold 6 flagship. Samsung will have to make some major changes to make this phone stand out.
We could get up to four foldable smartphones from Samsung this year
Now, the fourth foldable that was being talked about, aside from the Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip 6, and the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra… is the Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE. That name hasn’t been confirmed yet, but it’s a possibility.
We’re talking about a budget book-style foldable from the company. That device is rumored to arrive this year, but not alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. It will arrive a bit later on, based on rumors.
So, we could get up to four Galaxy Z devices this year, twice as much as last year. Nothing is set in stone just yet, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra rumors are still kind of fishy. So we’ll have to wait and see what will happen.
