Galaxy Z Fold 9 and 9 Ultra leak points to a cautious camera strategy
Brace yourselves for another year of recycled camera specs.
Korean leaker Lanzuk claims Samsung plans to keep the same camera hardware in both the Galaxy Z Fold 9 and the Galaxy Z Fold 9 Ultra. The leak suggests the Fold 9 Ultra will maintain a 200MP main, 50MP ultrawide, and a 3x telephoto lens, likely with a 10MP sensor. Conversely, the standard Fold 9 is rumored to stick with the 50MP main and 50MP ultrawide cameras from the Galaxy Z Fold 8.
While rumors previously pointed to Samsung potentially expanding its foldable range to battle stiff competition, this leak appears to temper those hopes. Expectations of a significant camera upgrade in Samsung's next generation of foldable devices may need to be revised. Despite the rise of competition in the foldable market, Samsung may opt for a cautious strategy, sticking to what it's known for in its upcoming book-style foldables.
Early signs suggest the company will likely continue with a conservative approach, as indicated by the leak.
