If you like your phones to flip or to fold,SamsungUnpacked is going to feel a lot like Christmas. Samsung’s summer event, which takes place in July, is going to be a showcase for the next generation of itsbest folding phones, the successors to theSamsung Galaxy Z Flip 4and theSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 4. And the source of the story has a pretty good knowledge of Samsung’s plans, because the source is Samsung itself.

I love these phones, so I’m extremely excited to see the next generation: if any of thebest Android phoneswere to tempt me to abandon my trustyiPhone 14, these foldables would be the ones.

So what can we expect from the fifth generation?

What are the specs of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5?

It’s all rumour so far, but we’re expecting theZ Flip 5to have a larger external screen similar to theMoto Razr 40 Ultra. Both phones are expected to come with lighter batteries to make them less of a menace to your pockets, and will reportedly “feel thinner” thanks to a water droplet-shaped hinge that can fold flatter. A Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor is pretty much inevitable, as is a premium price tag.

I’d expect a lot more leaks to come in the next few weeks: Samsung doesn’t have the same approach to secrecy asAppledoes, and in the period leading up to product announcements almost all the key specifications end up published long before the big reveal.

That means Samsung Unpacked will be a bit less showbizzy thanWWDCor this year’siPhone 15launch, but it also means you’ll have plenty of time to look at the key specs before deciding whether to pre-order.
