Samsung is reportedly saving a big chunk of foldable upgrades for 2026, leaving the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6 to hawk a sub-par package at a sky-high price tag.
It seems Samsung is in no rush to rethink its foldable strategy, even if that means taking a backseat at innovation and letting the Chinese labels bear the burden of progressive experimentation.
Recommended Videos Talking to Korean news outlet, The Elec, an executive at China’s FastPrint revealed that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 series may not get much in terms of upgrades, most of which are expected to appear on next year’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. Now, FastPrint knows a thing, or two, about the smartphone business.
FastPrint has also received Samsung’s nod to supply the same component for the upcoming Galaxy S25 series phones. The latest revelation from Samsung’s partner is not entirely surprising, though the plans at the Korean electronics giant might change down the road. The spokesperson further added that Samsung was hoping to counter the challenge from Chinese foldable phones and anticipated Apple’s entry in the game, as well, but the pace for innovation has apparently diminished internally.Flip 7 should grow from 6.7" to 6.85" and cover display should be around 4". Supply chain expert, Ross Young, recently shared on X that the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition will lend its looks to the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7.
