Samsung's slimmer book-style foldable has been rumored to go by Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, and it was supposedly going to launch on September 25. That obviously hasn't happened, but we do have some launch-related news. Maybe. A Korean retailer has apparently outed the pre-order and release time frame for the Samsung Galaxy Fold6 Special Edition - not the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, mind you.
This may be a typo, it may be the actual
commercial name of the device, or it could just be all made up. Do keep that in
mind while you read the rest, as the page in question also isn't accessible to
us anymore. Anyway, what it did apparently say was that pre-orders for the
device in Korea will start on October 18 and end on October 24 ahead of the
phone's release on October 25. So perhaps the September 25 leak got the date
right, just not the month.
That is, of course, if this is a real leak
by a retailer and not just a figment of someone's imagination. We'll have to
wait and see which it actually was. The Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition (or
whatever it will end up being called) is supposed to be larger (8"
internal folding screen, 6.5" cover screen), slimmer (10.6mm when folded),
and better equipped (200 MP main camera) than the Galaxy Z Fold6 which launched
back in July.
