Rumors about the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 are multiplying as we get closer to the phones' supposed July release date, and we now have a better idea of the color options we could see offered for both folding models. at launch.
According to a serial supply chain leaker young ross, the Z Fold 6 will be available in three colors: dark blue, light pink and silver. On the contrary, the Z Flip 6 will be available in four colors: light blue, light green, silver and yellow. As always, Samsung will likely offer additional store-exclusive color options as well.
Young notes that this information is based on “initial knowledge” about Samsung's upcoming foldable line, which of course means it's subject to change, but we've already heard so much about these two phones in terms of specs and features that we're confident. on the accuracy of Young's predictions.
Got an early look at the Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 colors: – Z Fold 6: Dark Blue, Light Pink, and Silver – Z Flip 6: Light Blue, Light Green, Silver, and YellowMarch 7, 2024
For reference, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 launched in Icy Blue, Phantom Black, and Cream last year, while the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 launched in Mint, Graphite, Cream, and Lavender. Samsung-exclusive gray and blue color options were then added to both lines after launch, and the Galaxy Z Flip 5 also got additional green and yellow variants.
As such, it's logical to expect (as Young does) that Samsung will stick to three main color options for the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and four main color options for the Galaxy Z Flip.
In terms of what else we've heard about these two upcoming phones, it's been widely reported that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will use a different aspect ratio than its predecessor. Specifically, we expect the former's cover display to be wider and more similar to the OnePlus Open, and it's also expected to be a bit larger. Leaked renderings from @OnLeaks and SmartPrix (below) corroborate these predictions.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6's cover display will also reportedly be larger than the Galaxy Z Flip 5's, at 3.9 inches (versus the latter's 3.4-inch display). A smaller fold and a more durable hinge are also expected.
We've heard from multiple sources that both the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 will have a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset under the hood, which isn't a surprise since their respective predecessors used Qualcomm's previous-generation chipset. . . No doubt Samsung's Galaxy AI features will also be present and correct.
And finally, Samsung itself has said it's working to protect its foldable phones from dust, so we could see the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 offered with dust resistance in addition to water resistance usual.
As to whether these updates will be enough to maintain Samsung's dominance on our list of the best foldable phones, the jury is out. But with more and more rivals to the Galaxy Z Flip 5 on the horizon in 2024, it's clear that Samsung should no longer command the ever-growing foldable market.
