Information about the upgrades under the hood of the foldable phone, including the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, slightly longer battery life, and variants with 8 and 12 GB of RAM, also remains intact.

“Seven years of updates”

Samsung is expected to have new Galaxy AI features in store for the new foldable phones, which will also come to existing devices with updates at a later date. According to SamMobile, the new phones will be supported with OS and security updates for at least seven years.

On July 10, Samsung will unveil its new foldable phones during its big Unpacked event. It will become clear then whether the leaked information is actually true, or if the company has other surprises in store for the specifications.
