After the Galaxy Z Flip and Z Flip 5G, Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Flip 3 during its Galaxy Unpacked presentation on August 11th, following in the footsteps of the Galaxy Z Flip and Z Flip 5G.
Despite the fact that nothing is official at this time, there are plenty of rumors to assist us to figure out what improvements we may anticipate from the new model.
According to the rumors, the Galaxy Z Flip 3 5G is expected to be similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 5G in terms of specifications.
1.Design
Z Flip 3: dimensions are 166 x 72.2 x 6.9mm when fully unfurled, with a bigger cover display. IPX8 Z Flip 5G: folded dimensions are 87.4 x 73.6 x 17.4mm, unfolded dimensions are 167.3 x 73.6 x 6.9-7.2mm, and there is no water resistance.
A horizontal fold is anticipated to be retained on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 5G, which is believed to have a similar clamshell form as the Galaxy Z Flip 5G and the original Z Flip, but will make more use of the front display.
In addition to a bigger cover display, rumors indicate that the twin cameras on the device’s outside will be more visible and that the device’s overall design will be more seamless as a result. It is also said that the Z Flip 3 will be water-resistant to IPX8 standards.
Purple, yellow, green, and black are reported to be the available color choices for the Z Flip 3 – though their names are sure to be more exciting – and there are even rumors of a sturdier frame for the device. As with the previous generations, a glass back is anticipated to be used.
87.4 x 73.6 x 17.4mm folded, and 167.3 x 73.6 x 6.9-7.2mm unfurled, the Galaxy Z Flip measures 87.4 x 73.6 x 17.4mm folded. It is available in two color options: Mystic Bronze and Mystic Gray, whereas the LTE variant has almost similar dimensions but is available in three colors: Mirror Purple, Mirror Black, and Mirror Gold.
They both feature a tiny cover display that is positioned next to the dual camera, and none of them is water-resistant.
2.Display
Z Flip 3 has a 6.7-inch primary display with Full HD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, and a 1.9-inch cover display (260 x 512)
Z Flip 5G has a 6.7-inch main display with Full HD+ resolution and a 1.1-inch cover display.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is anticipated to include a primary display that is 6.7 inches in size, which is the same size as the Z Flip 5G and the original Galaxy Z Flip. The Z Flip 3 is expected to have a refresh rate of 120Hz, according to reports.
The resolution is claimed to be Full HD+ (2640 x 1080), which is the same as that of the Z Flip 5G and Z Flip, with a pixel density of 425ppi.
However, it is anticipated that the most significant differences between the new and old versions would be found on the cover display itself. A 1.9-inch cover display is expected on the Z Flip 3, whereas the Z Flip 5G and first-generation Z Flip feature 1.1-inch displays, according to a report.
The 1.9-inch screen on the Z Flip 3 is claimed to have a resolution of 512 260 pixels, whereas the 1.1-inch display on the Z Flip 5G and Z Flip has an AMOLED panel with a resolution of 300 x 112 pixels, giving in a pixel density of 303 pixels per inch. The increase in size, on the other hand, will be much appreciated.
