Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 is rumoured to launch in the next few months headlining the third generation of the foldable series. The Galaxy Z Flip3 is also expected to make an appearance alongside the Fold 3 as both phones look to showcase Samsung’s technological prowess in the foldable smartphone segment. With phones such as the Mi Mix Fold and the Oppo X 2021 become a reality now, the foldable smartphone space has never been so exciting. Samsung is readying the Galaxy Z Fold 3 for launch later this year and today we have some exclusive information about it courtesy of popular tipster OnLeaks.

We have managed to get some new renders of the Fold 3 from OnLeaks that give us a good look at what to expect from the upcoming successor to the Fold 2. The Fold 3 does not look very different from the previous generation. One of the major additions is the support for the S Pen stylus that will allow users to make use of all that screen estate. You can watch the video with the gorgeous 5K renders below or you can scroll down to read more granular details about the upcoming Fold 3.

There are triple cameras on the back stacked neatly in a vertical arrangement accompanied by an LED flash. The design of the camera module is a bit different and narrow from Fold 2 and looks much cleaner. While the exact details about the cameras remain under wraps, Fold 3 is expected to have a primary camera followed by a telephoto and ultra-wide sensors like we saw on Fold 2.
