A lot about the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 have not yet been revealed. However, new leaks have revealed a few details about these upcoming phones. Giving us an idea as to when they are likely to launch.
According to SamMobile, the Samsung Galaxy Z fold 3 is likely to launch with at least 256GB of storage. It is not surprising, given that the Z fold 2 launched with similar storage space. The Galaxy Z fold 3 is also speculated to launch with Android 11 with Samsung’s One UI 3.5. It is also expected to have the model number SM-F926.
The Samsung Galaxy Z flip 3 on the other hand has been speculated to come with both 128GB and 256GB capacities based on recent leaks. This a little less than the 256GB storage found in the Z flip 2. Therefore, there is possibility the Z flip 3 will come at a starting price lower than the Z flip 2. The Z flip 3 is also said to run on Android 11 on One UI 3.5. Reports shows that the Z flip 3 will have a model number of SM-F711.
