BREAKING: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G S Pen and UWB support confirmed by FCC certification
Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G smartphone has just certified by the USA’s FCC certification. The documents revealed a handful of interesting and noticeable features that you should need to know.
According to the FCC listing, the Korean tech giant’s upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 3 will feature S Pen support, which was previously exclusive for the Galaxy Note lineup. However, its US variant bears model number SM-F926U.
In terms of connectivity, the next Galaxy Z Fold model will also come with ultra-wideband (UWB) support. If you don’t know, UWB tech is a short-range wireless communication protocol, which accurately defines the location of other UWB devices for a higher frequency data transfer with less power consumption.
It’s worth mentioning that the S Pen functionality was previously exclusive for the Galaxy Note phones, while the Galaxy S21 Ultra had grabbed it earlier this year. And now, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 is going to become the first foldable phone that will feature the iconic S Pen support.

Samsung started shipping Galaxy Z Fold 3 to carriers
A few days ago, South Korean media Dailian reported that Samsung is shipping the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 to the largest network carriers – KT, LG U+, and SK Telecom for network compatibility testing.
Samsung aims to ship over 7 million foldables this year
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 will reportedly come with a lower price tag compared to their predecessors. Moreover, the company has ordered around 60000 units per day and hopes to ship more than 7 million units of the new folding screen smartphone this year.
Launching on August 3
Well-known tipsters Max Weinbach & Jon Prosser revealed that Samsung will announce the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 at its upcoming Unpacked event on August 3, while their shipping will begin from August 28, meanwhile, an official confirmation still awaited.
The US variant of Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. There were reports that Samsung may expand the Exynos chipset to its foldable lineup, which doesn’t seem to be happening, at least in the United States.
Recently, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 US variant was spotted on Geekbench with Snapdragon chip. It isn’t surprising as the company is following its conventional chipset strategy. We expect that it will be the same chipset used in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy.
The Flip 6 smartphone scored 15084 points on Geekbench’s GPU test. Due to its foldable form factor, the device may miss a Galaxy S24-like larger cooling technology. Still, its impressive 15000+ points in the GPU test indicates that Samsung has greatly optimized the software.
The company still has three months remaining in the launch event. More performance improvements will likely be achieved before the Unpacked. The South Korean tech giant will likely unveil the next-gen foldable phones in mid-July.
This year, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra would join the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Galaxy Z Flip 6. In addition, an affordable variant of Fan Edition branding is also in development. However, the cheaper foldable would miss some pro-grade specs to maintain the price.

Google‘s Pixel 9 series is ready to introduce a significant upgrade with emergency satellite connectivity and new Samsung modem. This series aims to solve the persistent connectivity problems seen in previous Pixel models.
According to the information via AndroidAuthority, Samsung Modem 5400 will be integrated with Tensor G4 chips for the Pixel 9 series to bring significant improvements in terms of speed, power efficiency, and stability
The Pixel 9’s modem will support 5G non-terrestrial networks (NTN), which means it will enable satellite-based communication. This is particularly important for emergencies where standard network coverage is unavailable.
Moreover, this innovative feature is not exclusive to the Pixel 9. The next-generation Pixel Fold and a 5G tablet, currently under development, will also be equipped with the same modem.
One of the most notable features of this upgrade is the ability to connect with emergency services via satellite, which is crucial for users in areas without cellular coverage. To facilitate this, Google has implemented a system that guides users through a set of questions, allowing for quick communication with emergency responders. For example,
- What happened?
- [Are you/Are they/Is everyone] breathing?
- In total, how many people are [missing/trapped]?
- What best describes your situation?
- What is on fire?
- Are there weapons involved?
Although the release details for the 5G tablet are still unclear, the Pixel 9 series is expected to lead the way in mobile communication technology, ensuring users can remain connected in any location.
