- A new report suggests Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 ‘Slim’ might not be as slim as expected, with a thickness in the 10-11mm range.
- The phone will reportedly omit the digitizer to achieve this thinner profile, sacrificing S Pen compatibility in the process.
- Despite these efforts, the Z Fold 6 Slim will still be thicker than Chinese foldables, which boast a thickness of sub-10 mm.
The recent launch of Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 brought yet another iterative upgrade to the foldable market, leaving tech enthusiasts craving more. Rumors of an “Ultra” Galaxy Z Fold 6 ‘Slim,’ positioned as Samsung’s answer to advanced Chinese foldables, have been circulating for some time now. However, a new report from The Elec suggests this upcoming model might not be the game-changer many hoped for. (h/t: 9to5Google)
The report indicates that the Z Fold 6 Slim might end up being only marginally thinner than the standard Z Fold 6, which is 12.1mm thick when folded. The new Slim version could fall in the “low to mid-11mm range.” This reduction will primarily be due to the removal of the digitizer, which is the layer that enables S Pen functionality on Samsung’s book-style foldables.
