Right now, we’re getting a tidal wave of new information surrounding Samsung’s upcoming Z Fold smartphone. While we expect these phones to be an improvement over last year’s model in several ways, it appears that one area of the phone will not see any change. According to reports, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 may have the same camera setup as last year’s foldable phone.
One area where Samsung’s Galaxy foldables haven’t been impressing audiences is the camera. These phones usually fall behind in the camera department, and this is something that people have commented on ever since the beginning. The cameras are never bad overall, but they’re always underpowered compared to the latest Galaxy S phone.
The main thing that annoyed people was the fact that the Galaxy foldable phones are so expensive compared to other flagship phones. So, it just feels weird having underperforming cameras on a nearly $2,000 phone.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 might have the same cameras from last year’s foldable phone
Even though this news is coming from a notable leaker, you’ll still want to take this news cautiously. We’re not dealing with official information, and there’s always a chance that new information could arise before the official launch.
According to notable leaker Ice Universe, Samsung may fit the Galaxy Z Fold 6 with the same camera package present in the Galaxy Z Fold 5. It notes that everything could be the same from the main camera to the under-display camera.
Last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 5 (Review) had a 50-megapixel main camera sensor with an F/1.8 aperture, 10-megapixel 3x telephoto camera with an f/2.4 aperture, 12-megapixel ultrawide camera with an f/2.2 aperture, 10-megapixel external selfie camera with an f/2.2 aperture, and 4-megapixel under-display camera with an F/1.8 aperture.
The cameras on this phone were good, but they weren’t befitting of the high price tag. Well, it appears that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will mirror these camera specs and be yet another step behind the top flagships of the year.
Better camera specs might come, but they could cost you
Along with rumors of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 coming, we’ve also been following rumors surrounding the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra model. As the name suggests, it will be more powerful and more expensive than the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 model. News about this Ultra model is still very scarce, so we don’t have much to go on. However, it’s possible that Samsung could fit better camera specs into the Ultra model and leave the standard model with last year’s specs.
We will have to wait for more information on that model.
