According to an Allround-PC report, Samsung is working on a secret project called “Q6a”. This project or a code is expected to be the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra/Slim model and it is subject to launch in October of this year. However, further development suggested that a new model of foldable smartphone will only be launched in South Korea and China. The reason behind the limited launch is unclear at the moment. As of now, it is speculated that Samsung is facing heavy competition in the Asian market as Honor, Oppo, Huawei, and other companies are joining the race.

Another factor for launching the device in only two regions could be the growing cost of the device. The foldable smartphones are already available at a very hefty price range and introducing another foldable at a higher price range could be a challenge for Samsung. Additionally, the information about the upcoming Z Fold 6 model is slim, therefore, the design, features, and specs are still under the covers. Since the information is based on rumours, we will simply have to wait till October and see what Samsung has in store for the foldable smartphone users.
