After Samsung launched the Galaxy S21 series of smartphones in January, many people began to focus on gossip on the legendary Galaxy Z Flip 3, which will have a major improvement. First of all, like a clamshell folding screen smartphone, Samsung directly skipped the “Z Flip 2” generation naming to make it consistent with the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Secondly, it is reported that the flexible foldable main screen of Galaxy Z Flip 3 will support a 120Hz high refresh rate, the external screen will also become larger, and the auxiliary rear three-camera + stereo speakers.
In order to help everyone better imagine the appearance of the new Galaxy Z Flip 3 clamshell folding screen, Dutch technology blog LetsGoDigital specially worked with graphic designer Giuseppe “Snoreyn” Spinelli to bring us a set of wonderful concept renders.
Compared with the previous generation of Galaxy Z Flip models, it is rumored that the biggest change in the Galaxy Z Flip 3 is a larger external screen and a three-camera module. In addition, the screen frame has also been further reduced.
On March 11, 2021, Samsung Electronics also obtained a new patent entitled “Foldable Device and Its Control Method”, which describes a clamshell foldable smartphone with a larger external screen. The designer of this article The rendering is also based on this.

Samsung seems to pay special attention to the thickness of the control device to further enhance the portability of the Galaxy Z Flip 3. However, with the narrowing of the frame, the operating feel of the physical keys has also been affected to a certain extent.
As a solution, Samsung is trying to increase the touch-sensitive area around the buttons, and it will take effect regardless of whether the device is turned on or not. Last week, LetsGoDigital also discovered that Samsung had registered the “Armor Frame” trademark. This may mean that the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and Galaxy Z Fold 3 will make the body frame stronger on the basis of becoming thinner and lighter.
Interestingly, according to SamMobile’s revelations, Samsung may also introduce IP protection (dustproof and waterproof) for its new generation of folding screen mobile devices for the first time. As for whether it can reach the level of IP68 (or just splash-proof), it is currently unknown.
As for the size of the screen (1.83″ external screen + 6.8″ internal screen), many people hope that the Galaxy Z Flip 3 can be closer to Moto Razr (Samsung has filed a similar patent application), but there are still some uncertainties.
In terms of hinges, Galaxy Z Flip 3 is expected to almost eliminate the gap after folding, thereby preventing the accumulation of dust and dirt, and providing a variety of hinge colors (such as silver, gold, blue, and red on Z Fold 2).
In terms of processor, Galaxy Z Flip 3 may use Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G flagship SoC, supplemented by a 128GB / 256GB storage combination, and pre-installed with Android 11-based OneUI 3.5 software. However, in order to reduce the starting cost, the company may also launch a 4G derivative version.
In terms of taking pictures, the front camera may use the 10MP front camera on the Galaxy S21, and the rear 12MP wide-angle + 12MP ultra-wide-angle + zoom lens.
In terms of batteries, recent Safety Korea and Dekra certification information suggests that the Galaxy Z Flip 3 uses a 2300 mAh + 903 mAh dual-cell solution (models are EB-BF711ABY and EB-BF712ABY), and even supports 25W wired + 15W wireless Charging power.
As for the truth, please be patient and wait for the rumored Galaxy Unpacked conference to be held this summer (July).
