Of the upcoming Samsung foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Flip5 has been leaked quite a bit more than the larger Galaxy Z Fold5. Now that there’s a bit more of the latter floating around on the internet, things feel just a tad closer to being even. The new leak in question comes in the form of what is claimed to be the official press render of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 shared by MySmartPrice, which suggests that it is capable of folding completely flat.
However, both the article and the image in question was removed entirely. Regardless, depicted in the supposedly leaked render are two units of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 – one of which shown completely folded, while the other is in its unfolded form. The former looks to have both edges completely parallel to each other, unlike the models that came before, which is a major improvement assuming that the image is not being exaggerated.
Also on the marketing image is the S Pen which the foldable device has been compatible with for a couple of generations now. That being said, it is unclear if its inclusion in the shot with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 is simply to show compatibility between the two, or to suggest that you can finally store it on the device itself. As the image of the foldable phone does not show any slot for the stylus, the former looks to be the more likely explanation.
Either way, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 is scheduled to have the veil lifted off of it during the upcoming Unpacked event at the end of next month, alongside the Galaxy Z Flip5. As an aside, the report also claims that another Unpacked event will be held in the US on 11 August, which it dubs the “global” launch.
