A different take on the foldable device format

Corroborating leaked images published in mid-December, the premium device features a 6.7-inch Infinity-O display that can be folded in half. It’s paired with a centered selfie camera and raised bezels designed to better protect the screen.

Speaking of protection, Samsung appears to have added small pieces of rubber to the bottom corners which presumably shield the raised edge when the Galaxy Z Flip is closed. The upper-half of the rear side houses a dual-camera setup in the corner which is understood to include a 12-megapixel main sensor and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle alternative, both of which are believed to have been borrowed from the upcoming Galaxy S20.

An LED flash is placed next to the module and over on the right sits a tiny 1.06-inch AMOLED display. The secondary screen supports always-on technology and can be used to display notifications and other useful information such as the time, date, and weather.

It’s believed Galaxy Z Flip buyers will also be able to use the display as a viewfinder for the rear camera, if they prefer to use it for selfies over the front-facing sensor.
