As we get closer to the long-awaited announcement of Samsung's next-generation Galaxy Z Fold and Flip phones, more and more details about their designs and specifications are emerging. The new leaks point to a slimmer and lighter footprint to make the Z Fold 4 more user-friendly and practical.

Well-established leaker Ice Universe posted about the size change on Twitter, also noting that the phone would have a squarer display than previous folds. The change also comes with a slightly narrower bezel.

Previously, we've seen Z Fold 4 camera rumors and other information that point to the usual spec increases we'd expect from a generational upgrade. Some sources claim that the phone will include an S-Pen, but Ice Universe claims otherwise.

Dutch tech blog Galaxy Club claims that the battery capacity will be 4270mAh split between two batteries, which, as we know, is great for battery life and helps keep the devices fairly slim.

All the details we see in the leaks are yet to be confirmed as there hasn't been an official announcement yet, but the buzz the phone is generating four months ahead of its scheduled announcement is a good sign.

As long as battery life is decent, a slimmer profile is more than welcome on a giant foldable device like the Z Fold series. No one wants to lug around a slippery brick that they'll inevitably use to take photos and videos.

We liked the Galaxy Z Fold 3, but its thickness and weight were a sore point in a next-gen device. At 271g, it's a great two-handed phone, and while the Z Fold 4 may be much lighter, it will certainly be a two-handed phone too.

There are a lot of conflicting leaks out there, but if the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 has a built-in S-Pen, it will be one of the most versatile phones out there, which gets us excited for the future of growth. collapsible dog house
