Samsung is expected to launch two foldable smartphones—Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3—in the second half of this year. The design of the Galaxy Z Flip 3 was leaked a few days ago, revealing a bigger cover display and a high-refresh-rate foldable screen. Now, the smartphone’s price has been leaked, and it looks like it will be good news for foldable lovers. Recently, some renders tipped the design of the smartphone. However, there is no official information from Samsung regarding the Galaxy Z Flip 3 smartphone as of yet. It's been over a year since we saw the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip, though, so it might not be too long before the successor comes. That was the company's first 'clamshell' style folding device, and this is set to be the second. Samsung may launch the Galaxy Z Flip 3 on August 3. The smartphone is touted to be the successor to the Galaxy Z Flip that was launched in India in February 2020.
The Galaxy Z Flip 3 will feature the same glass and metal clamshell design. It will sport a bigger, 1.83-inch display on the outside, making it easier to view notifications and interact with them. That leak, and several others, also says the Z Flip 2 will have a bigger battery than the 3,300mAh one in the original Flip. There are no bets on the new size though.
Users can also easily control music, capture selfies, and probably make payments. It is also expected to feature a 120Hz Foldable Dynamic AMOLED Infinity-O display. Since it is a clamshell device, it could have the same side-mounted fingerprint reader from the Galaxy Z Flip.
It is also rumoured that the Galaxy Z Flip 3 will be a 5G smartphone and come equipped with the Snapdragon 888 processor. It will likely feature 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage. Rumours have claimed that the phone will have an IP rating for dust and water resistance. It could also use better cameras, Wi-Fi 6, GPS, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, USB Type-C port, a 3,300mAh battery, 25W fast charging, and wireless charging.
A report by LetsGoDigital claims that the Galaxy Z 3 Flip may come with Samsung S Pen support. The report also says that Samsung applied for a trademark with the European Union Intellectual Property Office on May 6. It states that the trademark is filed under Class 9 and has “smartphones, tablets, protective covers; electronic pen; capacitive stylus” as its description.
