Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition could land in weeks, but is it what

[phillynews215]

• Samsung may start taking pre-orders for a Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition later this month.
• Rumors had earlier associated that branding with a new, thinner version of the Z Fold 6.
• It’s as of yet unclear if this is the same hardware, or maybe just a limited color option.

Competition is starting to get fierce in the foldables market. It’s no longer simply enough for a manufacturer to prove it can successfully build a phone like this — you’ve got to build one better and fancier than all the other players. That’s bringing us not just crazy designs like triple-screen foldables, but also some with incredibly slim profiles, rivaling even non-folding hardware. For months now, we’ve been hearing rumors that Samsung could be working on a super-thin version of the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and now some new evidence gives us maybe our best guess yet at when we could hope to see it debut — or not.

While we’ve been talking about this phone all summer, no one’s seemed to be able to agree on how to identify it. Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra? Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim? Back in late August we heard that the phone might instead be branded as the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition. Now some very similar branding has popped up in promotional imagery from a South Korean retailer, advertising Special Edition pre-orders opening next month, and shared by X user sawtooth special edition (via 91mobiles).
