- Newly released CAD renders attempt to offer a preview at how Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Flip FE could look.
- Rather than getting the Flip 7’s expected cover screen upgrade, the FE would stick with the Flip 6’s more limited panel.
- Dimensions could also closely match those of the Z Flip 6, measuring just 0.5mm thicker
Samsung is arguably the industry leader when it comes to foldable smartphones, and the company’s reliably been coming back year after year with new iterations of both its book-style Galaxy Z Fold and clamshell Galaxy Z Flip. But this year we could really see the company start shaking things up, with a lineup consisting of four foldables: in addition to the Fold 7 and Flip 7, we could also get Samsung’s first triple-screen foldable, as well as its first model approaching budget territory, the Flip FE. Rumors have already been back and forth quite a bit about what to expect from this FE model, and now we’re getting our first look at how this hardware could arrive.
We’re checking out a series of CAD renders of the Galaxy Z Flip FE (or Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, who knows?), published by OnLeaks and SammyGuru. If you’re new to the party and wondering what we mean by “CAD renders,” this is because we’re not looking at images that Samsung itself actually produced. Instead, someone has gotten their hands on detailed measurements of the phone’s body, like the kind a case manufacturer might use when preparing accessories for an upcoming device. Those can then be used to produce a model for 3D renders, giving us the assortment of pics and video you see today.
