Yesterday, several photos of Galaxy Z Flip 5 dummy units hit the internet, giving us a closer look at the design of Samsung‘s new clamshell foldable. Today, we have real-life photos of the Galaxy Z Fold 5. Among other things, we can see that the display crease isn’t completely gone.
Shared on Reddit, the latest Galaxy Z Fold 5 leak gives us four real-life photos of the device. They confirm rumors that the new foldable will feature a redesigned hinge that eliminates the gap between two halves of the device when folded. There may still be a small gap, but certainly not as prominent as on the Galaxy Z Fold 4. This change makes the device less bulky and easy to carry.
The new hinge was also said to reduce the crease along the fold line on the inner display. Unfortunately, the crease is still visible. The quality of the photo is too poor to ascertain if Samsung has made any improvements. But the Galaxy Z Fold 5 certainly won’t give you a flawless folding screen. The rest of the design appears unchanged from the 2022 model—bar a relocated LED flash unit on the back.
Interestingly, the user who posted these photos on Reddit claims that they obtained them from someone else who was trying to sell the phone to them. It’s unclear where the person got the device from, though. The handset has a “confidential” label on the back that says “Not for sale.” Samsung may have handed over the device to someone for early testing ahead of its launch later this month.
The Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Flip 5 will debut on July 26
Samsung has already announced the date for its next Galaxy Unpacked event. The company is holding its latest big launch event on Wednesday, July 26. While past Unpacked events took place in the US, the Galaxy maker is taking it to its home country South Korea this year.
The Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 won’t be the only products coming out through Samsung’s doors later this month. The Korean biggie is also readying three new flagship tablets (the Galaxy Tab S9 lineup) and a couple of Wear OS smartwatches — Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. It may have more announcements lineup for the event. We will bring everything announced at Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event to you here at Android Headlines and also keep you posted with all the leaks and rumors ahead of that.
