The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 could be announced in July alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The foldable phone, which has been in the news for the past few months, has received a certification from the Indian Bureau of Standards ( BIS). The phone would also have appeared in the FV-5 camera database. The purported BIS certification confirms an India launch, while the FV-5 camera listing hints at a better rear camera system.
According to a report by 91Mobiles, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 has received BIS certification with model number SM-F741B. Screenshots of the listing shared by the publication show that it received the certification on Monday (May 20). The listing refers to an India launch for the foldable, but does not reveal any specifications.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 was also allegedly spotted in the FV-5 camera database. The listing suggested a main sensor with a resolution of 12.5 megapixels, which is said to refer to a 50 megapixel camera with pixel binning. The sensor could have a focal length of 5.4mm and support optical image stabilization (OIS) and electronic image stabilization (EIS). The addition of a 50-megapixel primary rear camera would be a notable upgrade over last year's Galaxy Z Flip 5, which has a 12-megapixel primary camera.
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 was spotted on the Geekbench website last month with the model number SM-F741U. It was listed with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile platform for Galaxy, Android 14 operating system and 6.75 GB of RAM.
Previous leaks and rumors about the upcoming flip phone suggest that it will have a larger flip screen than the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and offer a 120Hz refresh rate. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 could be available in 8GB or 12GB RAM options with 256GB or 512GB storage. It could handle a 25W load.
Samsung's second Unpacked 2024 event is rumored to take place on July 10. We can expect a lot more details about the surface of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and the Galaxy Z Fold 6 on the web as we get closer to the release date.
