The smartphone industry is abuzz with leaked specifications and performance expectations as enthusiasts and experts catch a glimpse of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 on a Geekbench benchmark listing. Leaks suggest a significant upgrade to the foldable device, which may feature 12 GB of RAM—heralding it as the first in its lineup to pack such powerful memory.
Leaks have recently spoiled some of the mystery surrounding the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 by revealing most of its specifications. Despite that, its memory and storage capabilities remained a topic of speculation until an early leak hinted at the possible configurations and a modest price bump. The latest Geekbench entry fills in the remaining gaps by detailing the memory capacity of the new foldable phone.
The newly spotted listing on Geekbench corroborates earlier expectations that the top-tier Galaxy Z Flip6 version will be equipped with 12 GB of RAM, an upgrade that seems crucial for smoothly handling increasingly common on-device AI tasks. The model number SM-F741B associated with this listing indicates it’s the international model. Yet, there might be variations in its availability based on different markets. Its performance benchmarks are reportedly consistent with other devices powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset.
However, skepticism arose when another Geekbench entry surfaced featuring a Galaxy Z Flip6 with what seems to be powered by the previous Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and boasting the same memory upgrade. The authenticity of such a listing is questionable since results can be doctored using rooted devices, and it would be unusual for Samsung to pair an older chip with its newest device.
Besides the Galaxy Z Flip6, reports mention a similar memory enhancement for the Galaxy S24 FE. This model may also be showcased at the expected Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10. In contrast, the impending Samsung Galaxy S25 could potentially retain an 8 GB RAM, which is controversially considered sufficient for premium smartphones by some standards.
As the industry awaits the formal announcement, the attention now turns to see which markets will receive the 12 GB RAM variant and how it would stand in the competitive foldable smartphone segment. Enthusiasts and potential consumers are looking forward to July when Samsung is likely to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Flip6, among other anticipated releases. With the upgrade promising enhanced performance capabilities, the new device is geared to cater to the higher expectations of tech-savvy users and multitaskers who seek the latest advancements in smartphone technology.
