Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, Flip 5, Tab S9 Design Tipped in Leaked Renders Ahead of Galaxy Unpacked Event

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 — expected to launch later this month at the company's next Galaxy Unpacked event — have surfaced online in the form of leaked renders. The company's next generation of foldable phones are set to succeed the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 that were unveiled by the company last year. The most notable change anticipated this year is the addition of a much larger external display on the Galaxy Z Flip 5. Meanwhile, the upcoming Galaxy Tab S9 has also been spotted in leaked renders, ahead of its debut.

Images of what appear to be official renders of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Z Flip 5, and Galaxy Tab S9 shared by WinFuture show the upcoming smartphones and tablets from various angles, ahead of the Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled to take place in South Korea on July 26. The images also hint at the colour options of the devices, which are expected to look quite similar to the models launched last year.

The device that is seeing the most important externally visible hardware change this year is the Galaxy Z Flip 5, which is said to feature a much larger 3.4-inch outer screen, compared to its predecessor — the Galaxy Z Flip 4 — that sported a 1.9-inch cover display. The smartphone is also tipped to launch with support for optimised versions of apps from Google and Samsung that will work on the larger external screen. 

Meanwhile, the images of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 suggest that the phone will look extremely similar to the previous smartphone in the series, the Galaxy Z Fold 4. It is shown to feature a triple rear camera setup with a small tweak involving the location of the LED flash.

The most noteworthy changes to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 smartphone this year are expected to be a new Snapdragon 8 series flagship chipset and a redesigned hinge. Both the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 are shown in beige, black, green, and purple colour options. 

The leaked images of the Galaxy Tab S9 suggest the company's upcoming tablet lineup will sport slim bezels, while the Galaxy Tab S9 appears to feature a display notch, which will reportedly house a front-facing camera unit. The Galaxy Tab S9+ and Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra are both shown to be equipped with dual rear cameras, while all three models are shown with an S Pen.
