Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition – Unveiled in South Korea

Samsung introduced its Galaxy Z Fold 6 smartphone back in the month of July 2024 and it has been quite some time since we have been hearing about the upcoming special edition model. As mentioned, it is in the brand’s home market in South Korea that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition has been unveiled and there are a lot of upgrades when compared with the standard edition that was launched previously.

Firstly about the design, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 features a new striped design at its rear and comes in a ‘Black Shadow’ color choice. The thickness and weight of the special edition model has been reduced by 1.5mm/0.7mm and 3gm, bringing the thickness and weight of the device to 10.6mm(folded)/4.9(unfolded) and 236 gm. Also to note, from the pill-shaped rear camera module, the special edition has a rectangular-shaped camera module with rounded edges.

The display has been enlarged from the standard edition. While the standard edition has a 7.6″ foldable main display and 6.3″ cover display, the special edition model offers a larger 8″ foldable main display(20:18 aspect ratio) and 6.5″ larger cover display.

On the camera side, from the 50MP primary camera, the newly introduced Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition sports a 200MP primary shooter too. Moreover, to offer better performance, the special edition has a 16GB higher RAM option, while the standard edition only has 12GB RAM.

In total, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition is the thinnest and lightest Galaxy Z Fold line-up model with the widest foldable main display and largest cover display. Also, it is the first time that a Galaxy Z Fold series device has arrived featuring a 200MP primary camera and a 16GB higher RAM option.

Price and Availability 

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition is priced at KRW 2,789,600 (~ INR 1,70,852), and will be available for purchase from the 25th of October 2024 in South Korea via Samsung’s official website and through major mobile carriers. Reward coupons for other Galaxy devices will also be given to early buyers.

We have been hearing about Samsung launching the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition even before the Galaxy Z Fold 6 was released. While browsing, we found the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition listed on the Samsung India Business Website. Although the listing includes specifications and renders, all of these match those of the Galaxy Z Fold 6. This suggests it could be a special edition for corporate users. When attempting to click on the Contact Us button, it directs to a page for corporate user details.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition Listed on Samsung India

The device is listed with the model number “SM-F956BZWDINS”, which is the model number for the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Earlier rumours suggested that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition would feature a slightly different camera module. However, this listing indicates otherwise. Previous leaks hinted at a slightly larger 6.5-inch cover display and an 8-inch inner foldable panel for the Special Edition compared to the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6. Not only this, but a Galaxy Z Flip 6 Special Edition is also listed but it redirects to the Galaxy Z Flip 6 page.

Another discrepancy is that the camera specifications shown in the spec sheet correspond to the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Earlier reports suggested the Special Edition would feature a 200MP main sensor. Furthermore, according to a Korean publication, Samsung is expected to launch this smartphone only in Korea and China.

These factors suggest that this may not be the special edition we have been anticipating, and it might remain exclusive to Korea and China. Additionally, a leaked poster indicates that pre-orders will begin on 18 October and continue until 24 October, with shipments starting from 25 October.

Currently, no official information corroborates this leak. So all in all i feel this might be not the special edition which we have been waiting for.
