Just ahead of the expected unveiling by Samsung of its next-generation foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Galaxy Z Flip 6, at its next edition of the Galaxy Unpacked event, a fresh leak has revealed the likely pricing of its flagship device, the Galaxy Z Fold 6.
The new generation foldable by Samsung is likely to be priced a notch higher than the predecessor model, as the report suggests.
Leaked Pricing for the Fold 6
The leak, in collaboration with OnLeaks, has shared this info with Smartprix.
There will be three options of 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB reportedly for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6.
As per the US pricing rumoured, the 256GB version will be priced at $1,899.99, which translates to approximately Rs 1,58,800, 512GB variant at $2,019.99, or approximately Rs. 1,68,800, and the high-end 1TB version for as much as $2,259.99 or approximately Rs. 1,88,900.

Notably, these prices are a $100 raise in all the available storage configurations compared to the predecessor Galaxy Z Fold 5 that got replaced at a starting price of $1,799.99 for the 256GB variant, $1,919.99 for the 512GB model, and $2,159.99 for the 1TB version.
Though the reasons for revising the prices remain unknown, it is reported that this rise in cost may be also reflected in markets other than US markets, including India.
| STORAGE VARIANT | Samsung Galaxy Z Fold FOLD 6 | Samsung Galaxy Z Fold FOLD 5 |
| 256GB Version | $1899.99 | $1799.99 |
| 512GB Version | $2019.99 | $2259.99 |
| 1TB Version | $2259.99 | $2159.99 |
Colour Options and Additional Specs Revealed
Apart from the pricing information, the report also spills the beans on the expected colour variants of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Series.
The foldable phone series will arrive in three distinct shade colours: Silver Shadow, Pink, and Navy.
Finally, says the leak, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will weigh in at 239 grams.
If real, this will make it a little bit lighter than the Galaxy Z Fold 5, which weighed an almost dainty 253 grams.
The weight loss could be interpreted as a sign that Samsung has done better in making its foldable more portable and ergonomic.
As a result, it might make the Galaxy Z Fold 6 one of the lightest fold phones though maybe not as light as the Vivo X Fold 3.
Rumours suggest that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 may feature a 7.6-inch inner display, a 6.2-inch cover display, and be powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, representing an upgrade over its predecessor’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.
Additionally, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is rumoured to boast a 200MP primary camera sensor, a significant leap from the 50MP sensor found on the Galaxy Z Fold 5.
However, reports indicate that the battery capacity may remain unchanged at 4,400mAh, with support for 25W charging.
