We’ve heard several rumors around the upcomingSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, expected to arrive in July, and the latest to appear backs up earlier claims that we’ll see a Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra alongside the standard model.

This comes fromAndroid Headlines(viaAndroid Police): aSamsungphone with the model number SM-F958N has been spotted, and that 8 at the end usually signifies an Ultra edition of a phone (as it does with theSamsung Galaxy S24 Ultra).

All the previous Samsung foldables have had model numbers ending in 6, so the thinking is we might be getting an Ultra foldable this time around – theSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra– alongside the regular model.

However, there aren’t any related model numbers that would point to editions of the phone for different countries. There is a chance this new Ultra model might only appear in Samsung’s home country of South Korea, with the rest of the world missing out.

Details to come

Samsung certainly has experience in making phones that are branded with the Ultra moniker, and this would enable it to offer consumers an even more premium product for those people who are able to pay a premium price.

However, it’s not clear what the differences would be between the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Ultra model. According to Android Headlines, both foldables are set to come running the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset from Qualcomm.

Wehave heard rumorsof a Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra before, but again they were quite light on detail. What’s more, there’s been talk of a cheaperSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE, so we might even get three versions of this handset in the coming months.
