You’ll immediately notice that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 has a boxy design similar to the Galaxy S24 Ultra. The corners of the screen on the inside and outside are also much more angular than the Galaxy Z Fold 5. It’s also slightly shorter and wider than its predecessor. There’s a triple camera setup on the back, and the fingerprint reader is on the right side of the phone.
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 has the same rounded corners as its predecessor, dual cameras, a large cover screen, and a side-mounted fingerprint reader.
The screen crease on both dummy units appears to be similar (or slightly less pronounced) to that of the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5. These dummy units may or may not match the appearance of the crease on the retail units of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6. Both phones will likely be thinner and lighter than their predecessors.
