Foldable devices

In the foldables, Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and the Galaxy Z Fold 5. Since the book-styled Fold device is targeted at niche audience, this year’s pre-show buzz is centered on the clamshell design-based flip smartphone.

Reports suggest bigger cover screen, thinner profile, and waterdrop-shaped hinge mechanism as some of the key upgrades making way to the next iteration of the flip, besides the seasonal upgrades in terms of processor, battery capacity, etc. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 is expected to sport a 3.4-inch external display (cover), which is reported to get support for key Google and Samsung apps. Imaging is expected to be covered by a dual-camera set-up on the back, featuring a 12-megapixel main sensor and a 12MP ultra-wide-angle sensor. 

The book-styled fold is reported to feature the Galaxy S23-inspired design. Like the flip, the fold is likely to get the waterdrop-shaped hinge and thinner profile, besides the seasonal upgrades in terms of processor, battery capacity, etc. It is expected to sport a triple-camera system on the back, featuring a 50MP OIS main sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide-angle autofocus sensor, and a 10MP telephoto lens. In addition to the back camera, there would be two more camera sensors – one on the inside and another on the cover screen.

Both the Flip and Fold are reported to be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 system-on-chip.

Tablets

Watches

The next generation of Samsung smartwatches, called Galaxy Watch 6 series, would bring the physical rotating bezel in the Pro model.
