Recently, a tipster revealed that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 brings a 3.4-inch cover screen. Now, the source shared a possible aspect ratio, which solidifies the rumor of a squarish cover display’s arrival on the next Flip.
According to IceUniverse, the cover screen scale (screen-to-body ratio) of the Z Flip5 is 1:1:038, which indicates a square display panel. To be mentioned, Oppo’s flip phone has a rectangular display outside, bigger than the Flip 4.
Earlier, the same tipster shared an image render of the Galaxy Z Flip5, showing off the possible cover display panel. However, we believe that the company may not bring camera sensors inside the cover screen of the smartphone.
We might see a new camera arrangement or design on Samsung’s next clamshell foldable smartphone. The official launch is expected for August 2023, so naturally, we have to wait sometime to see what’s coming next.

Galaxy Z Flip5 Expected Specs
It was reported that the Galaxy Z Flip5 would have narrower bezels inside (when unfolded), which can be considered another big upgrade. The device may feature Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 2 processor, manufactured by TSMC.
However, the South Korean tech giant may continue using the booming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, which debuted with the Galaxy S23 series in its next-gen foldable phones – Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5.
The devices may come pre-installed with Android 13-based One UI 5.1.1 software out of the box along with support for major upgrades up to Android 17 and security patches until late 2028.
Samsung has reportedly postponed the Galaxy F55 5G’s launch in India. New information suggests that the company will now reveal its new Galaxy smartphone on May 27. Meanwhile, all key specs have been revealed, with pricing remaining the mystery now.
Previously, Samsung confirmed the Galaxy F55 5G India launch for May 17 (today). While the official debut has now been delayed by 10 days, the company has listed the device with all the key specifications and features, while keeping the price unannounced.
Samsung’s F55 5G matches the specifications of the M55 5G and the design of the C55 5G. It sports a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It’s equipped with Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 processor with up to 12GB RAM and 256GB storage.
There’s a triple rear camera arrangement on the back, consisting of a 50MP main, an 8MP ultrawide, and a 2MP macro sensor. For selfies and video calling, the Galaxy F55 5G packs a 50MP snapper, which is surprisingly a big deal in the segment.
Powered by a 5,000mAh battery, it supports fast charging up to 45W. It’s slated to get four years of Android + One UI upgrades and five years of security patches. Featuring a Vegan Leather design on the back, it will be available in two different shades: Raisin Black and Apricot Crush.

Vivo X100 Ultra is officially launched to challenge Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with a 200MP Periscope camera. Specs-wise, this smartphone outpaces Samsung’s latest Galaxy S24 Ultra in terms of imaging capabilities, thanks to the custom Periscope sensor.
The new Vivo X100 Ultra comes with a 1-inch Sony LYT-900 main camera, and a 200MP periscope camera leveraging the 1/1.4″ ISOCELL HP9 sensor co-developed with Samsung. It’s notably the largest telephoto sensor fitted on a phone to date.
The Periscope introduces f/2.67 aperture and an 85mm equivalent focal length. Following its collaboration, Vivo brought Zeiss T* coating and Zeiss APO certification to the X100 Ultra, as part of delivering improved clarity and less fringing at contrast edges.
This monstrous zoom camera brings up to 3.7x optical zoom and 20% improved light sensitivity. Its telephoto macro (a.k.a. telemacro) mode offers 20x magnification. The company also introduced its BlueImage algorithm which was in development for eight years.
X100 Ultra’s 50MP main camera uses a 1/0.98” LYT-900 sensor with f/1.75 aperture and 23mm focal length. It also supports up to 4K 120fps video recording and Dolby Vision support. Besides, the 3rd lens is a 14mm equivalent ultrawide with a 1/2″ 50MP LYT-600 sensor.
Galaxy S24 Ultra…
The Galaxy S24 Ultra comes with a quad rear camera setup. The module consists of an advanced 200MP primary sensor – ISOCELL HP2, an ultrawide camera, a 10MP Telephoto with 3x optical zoom, and a 50MP Periscope with 5x optical zoom.
As the periscope camera is co-developed by Samsung, quality shouldn’t be questioned. This year’s Samsung flagship is equipped with a new 50MP periscope camera with 5x optical zoom. However, the 200MP periscope sounds pretty capable and powerful over S24 Ultra’s.
