Razr 40 Ultra sets new standards for flip foldables’ cover displays – its 3.6″ 1,056 x 1,066-pixel display (413ppi) is the largest available, and it even has punch holes for rear cameras. Rumors suggest that it won’t be able to match the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5.
As can be seen in early 3D renders, the new Flip will have a 3.4-inch 720 x 748p (304ppi) display that stops short of the cameras and wraps around them. Based on previous reports, Yogesh Brar posted a summary of the Galaxy Z Flip5’s expected specs.
Design:
The Galaxy Z Flip 5 will feature both a 6.7-inch internal foldable display and a 3.4-inch cover display. The circular camera cutout also stands out prominently in these renders.
The cover display is shaped somewhat like a folder icon on a PC. Due to the dual cameras, the panel needs to be trimmed a bit at the top. It’s quite a unique implementation and not one that many Samsung fans would have expected.
There is a possibility that this quirky design will bring us new software features. According to a recent report, Samsung has begun adapting its software to match the cover display’s irregular shape. It may be divisive to some people. Others may feel that Samsung should have taken a different approach.
Specs:
The new Galaxy Z Flip5 5G will sport the same 6.7 inches Dynamic AMOLED 2x foldable FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It comes with Corning Gorilla Victus+ on top with a larger 3.4 inches OLED secondary HD display. It is now powered by SD 8 Gen 2 SoC coupled with 8GB RAM and 128GB/256GB internal storage.
The Galaxy Z Flip5 5G still features the same dual rear cameras with a 12MP main wide sensor with f/1.8 aperture, OIS, dual PD, and 12MP ultra-wide f/2.2 aperture with 123-degrees FoV and LED flash. There is the same 10MP selfie sensor with an aperture of f/2.4.
The Galaxy Z Flip5 5G features a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and gets an IPX8 rating making it dust and water-resistant. The connectivity option includes Dual SIM (1-eSIM+1-SIM) with Dual 4G LTE and VoLTE support, 5G, Dual-Band Wifi, A-GPS, GLONASS, Bluetooth 5.2, USB Type-C port, and NFC.
The device packs a 3700 mAh battery with 25W fast charging & 15W wireless charging. It runs on Android 13 with One UI 5.1 on top.
The Galaxy Z Flip5 will cost $999 (Rs.82,600/-).
