Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition pictured with ultra-thin design despite last minute rumours of Galaxy S24 Ultra beating 200 MP camera
Samsung is under twenty four hours away from unveiling what is expected to be its next flagship foldable device. Ultimately, it has largely escaped the detailed leaks that plagued the Galaxy Z Flip6, Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy S24 series earlier this year. However, it has not emerged completely unscathed.
For instance, a few high-profile sources shared fleeting looks at the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition in the last month or so. On top of that, other leakers have outlined various details about the unreleased device, including its switch from ultra-thin glass (UTG) to ultra-flexible glass (UFG) to minimise the visibility of its internal display crease. Now, alleged hands-on photos of the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition have surfaced on social media ahead of its official debut tomorrow in China and South Korea.

Initially, it was unclear whether these images were authentic. Samsung's decision to have these images removed from X (formerly Twitter) implies that they are an accurate representation of what its next foldable will look like, albeit in its Chinese form as the W25. Accordingly, the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition is wider than the Galaxy Z Fold6 with a redesigned camera housing. Moreover, the Special Edition looks noticeably thinner than the regular Galaxy Z Fold6 (curr. $1,249.99 - renewed on Amazon).
Furthermore, @UniverseIce has commented on the prospective camera quality of Samsung's long-awaited 'Special Edition' smartphone. As previous rumours alleged, @UniverseIce believes that Samsung has equipped the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition with a 200 MP primary camera, just like the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Reportedly, the company has managed to image quality between models though, which would be a stark change from recent Galaxy Z Fold generations. Unfortunately, it still seems that Samsung's next foldable will be exclusive to China and South Korea, at least initially.
