Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 may not arrive with an IP58 rating
According to their observations, the crease between the two devices appears "indistinguishable," implying that Samsung has not made significant changes in this aspect of the foldable design.
As the highly anticipated launch of the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 approaches, Samsung enthusiasts eagerly await the final specifications and details of these foldable devices. Renowned tipster Ice Universe, known for their accurate Samsung leaks, recently shared some insights regarding the Galaxy Z Fold5’s features.
Contrary to previous reports, Ice Universe revealed through a tweet that the Galaxy Z Fold5 will not be equipped with an IP58 dust and water resistance rating. This information comes as a surprise since earlier rumors had suggested that the Z Fold5, along with the Z Flip5, would introduce this rating, making it a first for foldable smartphones. However, it appears that Samsung will likely stick to the IPX8 rating for water resistance, which was present on their previous foldable models.
In addition to addressing the IP58 rating speculation, the tipster also commented on the crease of the Z Fold5’s inside panel. Ice Universe claimed that the crease on the Z Fold5 will be identical to that of its predecessor, the Z Fold4. According to their observations, the crease between the two devices appears “indistinguishable,” implying that Samsung has not made significant changes in this aspect of the foldable design.
While these leaks provide some clarity about the Galaxy Z Fold5, there are still many other aspects and features yet to be revealed. As the launch event draws near, fans can expect further leaks and official announcements from Samsung, offering a comprehensive understanding of the innovative technology and improvements brought by the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5.
