Apple’s first foldable iPhone<\/a> features several capabilities that Samsung initially introduced in its own foldables<\/a> but omitted from the Galaxy Z Fold 8. However, taking cues from the iPhone Duo, the South Korean firm might bring back at least one feature it debuted years ago on earlier Galaxy Z Fold devices.\n<\/p>\n

A tipster claims<\/a> that Samsung has decided to equip the Galaxy Z Fold 9 with an under-display camera (UDC) on its inner foldable screen for the selfie camera.\n<\/p>\n

This feature was first introduced with the Galaxy Z Fold 3<\/a> in 2021 and remained present through the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Samsung later switched to a standard punch-hole selfie camera<\/a> on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 to improve overall camera quality<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

The tipster also claims that Samsung will make major internal upgrades to the Galaxy Z Fold 9 while keeping exterior design changes to a minimum. The upcoming foldable will reportedly measure around 3.9mm thin when unfolded and 7.9mm thin when folded.\n<\/p>\n

Positioned as a direct competitor to the iPhone Duo, the Galaxy Z Fold 9 will most likely feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6<\/a> processor, a minimum of 12GB of RAM, and at least 256GB of storage.\n<\/p>\n

It would be great to see Samsung also add a telephoto camera, a larger battery, an integrated S Pen stylus, and an IP68 rating to the new device.\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple’s first foldable iPhone features several capabilities that Samsung initially introduced in its own foldables but omitted from…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":822647,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[304,256796,3586,254592,59,253298,86,269853,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-822646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-apple","tag-apple-iphone-duo","tag-galaxy-z-fold-6","tag-galaxy-z-fold-9","tag-gb","tag-iphone-duo","tag-technology","tag-udc","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/822646","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=822646"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/822646\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/822647"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=822646"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=822646"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=822646"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
