A few months ago, the first fan-made renders depicting the alleged Galaxy Z Fold 6 design emerged. Those renders pointed to a shift in design for the upcoming flagship, and more evidence supporting those early reports is now emerging.

US-based case manufacturer Thinborne recently shared a CAD of a Galaxy Z Fold 6 on social media and reconfirmed that the upcoming flagship will become more angular than the ongoing model.

According to all the information revealed thus far, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will embrace flatter surfaces, sharper edges, and even sharper corners than the Galaxy Z Fold 5.

When will Samsung announce it?

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is expected to make its first official appearance in early July at the next Unpacked event. The launch event should be hosted by Samsung in Paris just a couple of weeks before the 2024 Olympic Games begin.

Samsung refined the Galaxy Z Fold series' exterior design year after year. Judging by unofficial renders, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 might be a continuation of the design language first established by the Z Fold 3. However, it will lean even more into flat surfaces and sharp corners.

If these unofficial renders are anything to go by, one drastic change could consist of the cover screen's sharper corners. However, we can never be too sure of the accuracy of early CAD renders, so take this information for what it is and stay. We'll keep you posted as we find out more.
