Samsung and its Foldable Plans
There has been rumors during the early months of the year that a new foldable model will be added to Samsung's lineup to expand its Galaxy Z Fold and Flip devices. Earlier reports claimed that Samsung was doing this because of the growing foldable device market that is seeing more Chinese-made smartphones.
Various reports and rumors have popped up online, including the likes of a Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE version that will allegedly introduce the first "Fan Edition" version of the foldable. There have also been reports about an entry-level version of the Z Fold lineup that will introduce a budget-friendly version to better compete with its rivals.
Samsung is speculated to put more focus on the foldable smartphone market, but its earlier Unpacked event only introduced its two regular releases, with the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6. However, this may be because the company is planning other future foldable releases for the year.
If the rumors are true, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim is coming soon and may even be introduced to the world as easly as next month.
