Samsung released a Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition for the Korean market alongside the regular Galaxy Z Fold 6. The special edition features larger displays and a lighter build compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 6. It also boasts a new 200MP sensor for the primary camera.
The forthcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to inherit these features, along with enhancements like a bigger vapor chamber, a faster chip, and improved speakers compared to the special edition model.
