with family Galaxy S24 On the market since last February, Samsung faces the first half of the year with powerful launches: the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55 are proof of this, and will be the bestsellers in the mid-range. However, we know what awaits you after the summer, an Unpacked where you will discover the next generation of folding.
We have had various leaks about the Galaxy Z Fold6, such as its design, which could come in an economical version, and certain aesthetic changes that give it more elegance. In relation to the clamshell folding, we have only seen its physical appearance in renders, and now we know two improvements and one change which will not please all potential buyers.
More RAM, an exterior screen without cutouts and a possible change in the processor
There have not been too many times that data has been leaked about the next clamshell foldingthe compact of the two Galaxy Z that will arrive in 2024. Unlike its older brother, it only OnLeaks He told us about its design, without us knowing more information such as its specifications.

Now, according to the informant @kro_roe in Twitter X, the Galaxy Z Flip6 would mean the beginning of a well-known trend seen in another family: it could have two variantsone with an Exynos chip and another with a Qualcomm processor.
Yes, as has happened in other generations of the Galaxy S, the foldable could arrive in two variants. It would not be a new model that houses the Snapdragon chip as happens with the S24 Ultrabut the strategy of previous generations.
If this were to happen, we would be faced with a unpublished fact: Never before have foldables had such different variants. In fact, it would also be the first time we see a processor from the Korean firm in these models.
Without yet knowing if it is the Exynos 2400 or any other, Samsung would bet everything on its own line of processors. Certainly, in this generation it has been able to hit the mark – although it is far away in some sections – and it could be the ideal time to dare.
Likewise, this change would not come alone: the rumor points to two variants of 8 and 12 GB of RAM, representing a considerable improvement over its predecessor. Of course, the latter would not reach all regions of the globe, and the storage amounts would remain as last year, with 256 and 512 GB.
Yes, it will be better received, if it finally occurs, the leap that the external screen will make: it would raise its refresh rate at 120 hertz. This would also lead to an increase in the battery capacity, which would become 4,000 mAh.
For now, that is all that the source reveals, which is no small thing. There are still a few weeks until we see clear indications about the launch of the new series of foldables. Until then, we will continue to monitor all the information that emerges.
