When it comes to foldable smartphones, people quickly think of Samsung. Where that was not very positive at first (due to the Galaxy Fold ), the company is now at the top of that market. It is therefore not surprising that the company continues to invest heavily in it. Thus, according to a reliable source, the following model comes with a very unique feature.
The next foldable device, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3, comes with a striking selfie camera, according to Ice Universe. Or actually not, because the chance that you as a user can see it is very small.

Samsung hides the selfie camera in the next foldable smartphone
Officially, the next foldable smartphone from Samsung has not yet been announced. Still, given the success of the previous two models and recent rumors, it is still expected. The news can certainly be taken with a grain of salt, but a lot of work is probably going on on the Galaxy Z Fold 3. We may see the foldable smartphone appear this summer and we also see a unique functionality. The smartphone camera of this device is located under the screen.
It is certainly not the first time that we have heard of similar technology. ZTE recently brought a smartphone on the market where the selfie camera was already under the screen. But the big boys in the market have not yet gotten off with the technology. Something that, according to Ice Universe, a reliable source of this kind of news, will change this summer. We do not know yet whether we will encounter a smartphone with this feature before then.
Handy fact on Wednesday: UPC stands for Under Panel Camera.
As mentioned, you have to take the news with a grain of salt, but it is at least remarkable that we are now hearing about it again. At the end of last year, a message surfaced that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 would be equipped with a selfie camera under the screen. Whether he will really get there is of course the question, but now that Ice Universe is involved, the chance has increased considerably.
Affordable?
With the first Galaxy Fold, Samsung was laughed at all over the world. The South Korean company was one of the first companies to market such a smartphone but was subsequently recalled when it turned out that the screen broke quickly. The company worked hard to fix the problems and released an improved model. That model may have felt like a prototype, but it was a success. Reason enough for the company to continue to innovate and to release a new model in the summer of 2020: the Galaxy Z Fold 2. With all the convenience in the world, this device could be called a full-fledged smartphone and was also considered by us. taste. The only problem with the device was the fact that it was way too expensive.
The hope, of course, is that Samsung will manage to make the foldable smartphones slightly cheaper. Something that the company also managed to do with the Galaxy S21 series. At the moment, we do not consider the chance high, because the technology still needs to be optimized. But there are currently rumors that we can expect a cheaper model in 2021. If Samsung succeeds with that model, we can say that the foldable market will be a lot more interesting.
