Seeing what Honor, Oppo, OnePlus, Huawei, Xiaomi, Vivo and others are about to release, Samsung decided to launch a new member of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 family in the last quarter of 2024, the same year. with products in the same line.
The reason is because the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim and Z Fold FE faced disadvantages when the market was flooded with thinner folding screen devices from Chinese companies.
Information from sources in The Elec Korea's supply chain revealed that Samsung is researching a titanium backplate for the Z Fold 6 Slim to make the phone thinner, lighter and more sturdy.
This will be the first time Samsung uses expensive titanium as a material on a folding phone, after previously using it to make the frame for the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
Currently, with folding phones, Samsung uses steel as the back for the Flip line and a carbon fiber mixture for the Fold line so as not to interfere with the touch of the S Pen.
Because the Z Fold 6 Slim does not include S Pen support, Samsung was able to improve the metal back panel with durable, lightweight titanium material , helping to minimize weight, reduce the thickness of the device, creating a light feel. feels gentle on the user's hand while still maintaining the original design and desired performance.
