The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 is anticipated to be unveiled at Samsung Unpacked on July 26, with several rumors and leaks circulating about its features. One of the prominent rumors center on the device's potential to be significantly thinner and lighter compared to its predecessor.
Reports suggest that the Galaxy Z Fold 5 may incorporate a water drop-style hinge, allowing the display to fold entirely flat when closed, unlike the previous Galaxy Z Fold 4, which had a noticeable gap. This design enhancement has piqued interest among potential users.
A particular area of focus revolves around the device's slimness and weight. According to Samsung Mobile head TM Roh's recent teasing, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is expected to be slimmer and lighter than the current model. This prospect is particularly appealing to those who find bulkier devices cumbersome to carry around throughout the day.
Specifically, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is rumored to weigh approximately 8.9 ounces, which would make it more than an ounce lighter than its main competitor, the Google Pixel Fold. Additionally, the device is expected to measure around 0.53 inches when closed, compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 4's dimensions ranging from 0.55 to 0.62 inches. This potential reduction in thickness could make a notable difference in terms of portability and pocket-friendliness.
For individuals who have contemplated switching to foldable phones in the past, concerns about their size and weight have been a decisive factor. Although foldables offer exciting multitasking capabilities, some users hesitate to adopt them due to their heft and dimensions, even if they could serve as a substitute for pads and laptops in certain situations.
