There have been multiple rumours and leaks suggesting the same. A new leak has now popped up and it’s supposedly the dummy unit of the Galaxy Z Flip 5.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5 are expected to be unveiled at the Galaxy Unpacked event on July 26 and they are currently up for pre-reservations in India.

Multiple leaks over the past few months have already revealed quite a lot about the next-generation foldable phones and most recently, a hands-on video of the dummy units of the Galaxy Z Flip 5 has surfaced online.

The video suggests the design of the upcoming flip phone. It is shown with a folder-shaped external display and appears to have a hinge gap. Like the previous model, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 is seen featuring a fingerprint sensor.

Leakspinner (via SlashLeaks) shared a hands-on video and images of the dummy units of Galaxy Z Flip 5. They suggest a design language similar to last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 4.

However, it is seen with a much larger folder-shaped cover display with two camera modules.
The Galaxy Z Flip 5 has been widely expected to come with a water drop style hinge design to eliminate the gap between both halves while folding. The video, however, reveals a distinct gap when the clamshell foldable is folded.

The volume rocker and power button with integrated fingerprint reader are seen arranged on the right edge of the Galaxy Z Flip 5.
The SIM card tray appears to be placed on the left and a USB Type-C port is seen on the bottom.

These design elements appear to match up with what we’ve seen in older leaks. However, it is worth taking these leaked images with a grain of salt.

Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event is scheduled to take place on July 26 at 4:30pm IST. It will be streamed live via the company’s website and YouTube channel.
Samsung is currently taking pre-reservations for the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 in India.

Here’s the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 Dummy Unit

This is a dummy unit so it’s obviously not the finished product but it does show the Galaxy Z Flip 5’s complete design. The biggest upgrade this year is said to be the cover display which is going to be larger than the previous models. This is also in line with the latest flip foldables which have a large cover display.

The leaked video shared by Slash Leaks shows the Galaxy Z Flip 5 in white colour with a gold frame. There are dual selfie cameras sitting just below the cover display.

On the inside, there’s a punch-hole selfie camera that’s sitting at the top centre of the display. The USB Type-C port and speaker grille are located at the bottom.

Overall, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 looks much like the Galaxy Z Flip 4 but with a bigger cover display.

Leaks suggest it’s going to be a 3.4-inch cover display. As for the rest of the specifications, here’s what we know so far.

What Video Showed?

The video shows Galaxy Z Flip 5 smartphones in black and white colour with larger cover display compared to previous smartphones of this series.

The rear side has a dual camera setup with a slight bump and is arranged horizontally with a flash. The cover display leaving an equal area around three sides has left enough space below the camera and flash.

Rumours suggest that this smartphone will come with an improved hinge leaving a minimum gap when it’s folded. Though the video didn’t show something like that because the phone could be seen with a gap in the hinge.

The rest of the things looked quite similar to Galaxy Z Flip 4 in terms of design with a side fingerprint sensor, volume and power button.
