Samsung is going to launch its next set of foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Galaxy Z Flip 6, in early July this year. The production of these devices is in full swing, and the company has now started benchmarking them.
A Galaxy Z Flip 6 benchmark appeared on the Geekbench website this week, revealing some key features of the upcoming phone. According to the benchmark, Samsung’s upcoming clamshell foldable smartphone features the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which isn’t surprising.
The benchmark also lists 8GB of RAM, though we’re hopeful that the Z Flip line will finally get a 12GB RAM option now that even Samsung’s mid-range phones have 12GB of RAM. The software version, as expected, is Android 14, and the new foldables will likely come with One UI 6.1.1.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 managed to score 15,050 points on the GPU test, which is similar to what the Galaxy S24 Ultra managed to achieve. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is more compact than the Galaxy S24 Ultra. As such, it has less space for a cooling system. Despite that, it managed to achieve the same level of performance as the brand’s flagship phone, which is quite impressive. However, we suspect that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 might not be able to maintain that level of performance for as long as the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
According to a previous report, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will feature a larger cover display than that on the Galaxy Z Flip 5. Reportedly, the cover display on the upcoming phone will a 120Hz refresh rate instead of a 60Hz refresh rate on its predecessor. Samsung is expected to offer the foldable with an Exynos chipset in some regions, and the it will be available with up to 12GB RAM. We already got to see the phone’s design, thanks to a previous leak, and according to another report, it will come in a new set of colors.
