  • A slimmer Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 could launch as soon as Q4 2024.
  • The new device will apparently offer an 8-inch folding screen and a 6.5-inch smartphone display.
  • That would put the device on par with several rival foldables as far as screen size is concerned.

We’ve heard rumors about a second, slimmer Galaxy Z Fold 6 model for a while now. It doesn’t look like this device will launch next week at Samsung Unpacked, but it turns out the foldable phone could still launch before the end of the year.

The Elec reports that the production schedule for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 slim model has been finalized. The outlet says the device could launch as soon as Q4 2024 (October to December), and that 400,000 to 500,000 units will be shipped by the end of the year. It’s believed that the device will only be available in a few countries, with China mooted as one of these markets.
