The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 is certainly one of the most anticipated foldable smartphones of 2023. However, according to trustworthy tipster Ice Universe, it’s better to keep your expectations on a safe and quite conservative level. At least, when it comes to the camera department. The tipster states that the Galaxy Z Flip6 will have the same cameras as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 Won’t Bring Camera Upgrades, but an Ultra variant could bring a 200MP camera
Ice Universe has a very good track record, so that means that we shouldn’t see big hardware upgrades in the Galaxy Z Fold6 camera. The phone will come with a 50 MP 1/1.56″ ISOCELL GN3 wide-angle camera joined by 10 MP 1/3.94″ 3x Zoom and 12 MP 1/3.06″ ultrawide shooters. There will also be a 10 MP 1/3 punch-hole selfie camera in the outer screen, and a 16 MP 1/3″ under-screen selfie camera will complete the spec sheet in the inner display.
The camera configuration of Galaxy Z Fold6 is exactly the same as that of Fold5. Whether it's the rear camera or the front camera or UDC

Interestingly, the tipster also corroborates the rumors of a Galaxy Z Fold6 Ultra variant. According to him, this unit may bring an upgrade to the camera department. Although the details are still scarce, a Galaxy Z Fold6 Ultra would mark the launch of a more premium version in this smartphone series.

This would allow Samsung to fit in more technology in this complex build without needing to make it cheaper. It’s an undeniable fact that companies are working hard to make their foldable phones cheaper while keeping them with flagship specifications. Sometimes it may be hard to mix premium specifications with the complex build and design found in these devices.
Fold6 uses the camera of Fold5 from the beginning, so there will be no difference. But Fold6 Ultra may have changed.

Galaxy Z Fold6 Ultra To Include 200 MP ISOCELL HP2 Camera
With the Galaxy S Series, the Ultra variant allows Samsung to deploy a more “impressive” and premium set of specifications. The Galaxy S24 Ultra, for example, is the most expensive but also brings the most impressive set of specifications every year. That said, the Galaxy Z Fold6 Ultra is rumored to bring a more impressive camera setup with a 200 MP ISOCELL HP2 shooter from its S24 Ultra sibling. Apart from this, we don’t know exactly what other differences will separate the two foldables. Right now, we need to digest the rumors with a pinch of salt.
It is worth noting that the Galaxy Z Fold6 Ultra may not be the only addition to the Fold series. According to rumors, Samsung will soon introduce the FE variants for both its Z Flip and Z Fold series. Considering all these rumors, this will be an exciting year for fans of the foldable segment.
