Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra Confirmed for Release This Year

This year's Galaxy Z Fold lineup is shaping up to be exciting, with the potential arrival of two new models. Rumors have been swirling about an affordable Galaxy Z Fold 6 (or Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE) and even a top-of-the-line Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra. A recent report strongly suggests that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra is not only real, but also launching in 2024.

Previously, the "Ultra" designation was reserved for Samsung's flagship Galaxy S series. However, it appears Samsung is expanding the Ultra brand to its foldable lineup. Android Headlines spotted a Samsung phone with the model number SM-F958N, which they believe to be the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra. This assumption is based on the number "8," which Samsung typically uses for Ultra models, and the "6" at the end, which aligns with previous foldable model numbers.

Release Date and Speculation:

The report suggests a summer release for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra as part of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 lineup. Given the Ultra branding, it's likely to be the most expensive model in the series. There's speculation that the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 might only be available in South Korea, even if it launches at all.

While details about the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra remain scarce, it's highly expected to be equipped with the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. More information about the Ultra model is expected to leak closer to launch.

Samsung Unpacked Event Expected in July:

Rumors point to a second Samsung Unpacked event happening on July 10th in Paris. This event is expected to be a major one, with the unveiling of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Z Flip 6. The Galaxy Watch 7 series and Galaxy Ring are also rumored to launch at this event.
