It is, in fact, the global A6x. So why not simply launch it in India as the A6x? Who...

So there were only ever a few units available, which naturally sold out instantly. The same source says sales will continue in the US, where the Galaxy Z TriFold became available later than in...
The Samsung Galaxy Fold line has had the exact same 4,400 mAh battery capacity since the Galaxy Z Fold3, which came out in 2021 - and, funnily enough, the Fold2 from 2020 actually had a bigger 4,500 mAh battery. This situation is ridiculous when you look at what Chinese foldables can offer in terms of battery capacity these days, and apparently Samsung is finally going to do something about it. A new rumor claims the Galaxy Z Fold8 launching later this year will finally up this battery capacity - but not by much. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 It will, however, go all the way up to 5,000...

Despite the fact that this version hasn't even made it to older Samsung devices yet, the Korean company is now already testing One UI 9, which is based on Android 17.
