Samsung has provided a first glimpse of its highly anticipated foldable flagship, the Galaxy Z Fold 5, with the release of an official press image. Alongside the image, crucial specifications for the device have also emerged.
The leaked press image showcases the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5’s notable feature of a flat-closing design, signifying a significant departure from previous models. In pursuit of a sleeker and crease-free display, the company has introduced a modern “waterdrop” hinge design.
While the design of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 remains largely similar to its predecessor, there is a noticeable change in the placement of the LED. Previously positioned near the rear cameras, it has been relocated to the side in this iteration.
This recently leaked image is consistent with previous leaks from April, which suggested a reduced thickness when the device is folded, effectively resolving the screen gap issue. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 measures approximately 13.5mm when closed.
Here are the possible specifications for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5:
- Main display: A 7.6″ foldable AMOLED display featuring a new water-drop hinge design, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, up to 120 Hz refresh rate, and a QHD+ resolution.
- Cover display: A 6.2″ AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate and FullHD+ resolution.
- Processor: Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.
- RAM: Options available for 8GB or 12GB.
- Storage: Choices include 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB.

- Camera: Comprises a 50 MP main camera, a 12 MP ultra wide-angle camera, and a 10 MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom.
- Front camera: Features a 12 MP camera for both the cover display and the main display.
