Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 camera details tipped
Another report (via) shed some light on the camera details of the phone. This suggests there may not be any major changes/upgrades over the Galaxy Z Fold 5. It is expected to feature the same camera setup as its predecessor. This means we will miss out on the new 50MP 5x telephoto camera found on the Galaxy S24 Ultra and will be limited to the existing 3x sensor. This switch introduced the option to capture portrait/bokeh photos at 5x zoom.
So if you are looking for a versatile camera setup rather than a modern foldable form factor, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is your best bet.
