As, you have already probably seen, normally when we bring out a new render/leak articles, there’s always some over the top render that always sets me off and probably you too. This feels a bit bad because we all know that those renders aren’t going to be the reality, because those are first off, fan made renders and second, too hard for the company to mass produce, with critical engineering and alot of people who’ll need ton relearn how to insert the pieces into the phone, and all of that costs a lot of money, which we all know that the company isn’t willing to spend.

All, while knowing this, all of us nerds do know that this isn’t the reality and the creator of that render also does know about that but he’s got to get those views, this is what set’s us off doesn’t it?

So, after all that trash talk, now we got to the phone, if you wanted to see what the leak/render looks like, you got it! We’re not here putting subscription signs on our content, although that could be a possibility 

So, now, more on this leak, technically a render, this one was first unveiled via, 91Mobiles and the leaks are real, not just based on Blass and 91mobiles’ track records but because it’s also a very close match to what we saw earlier this year from low-res leaks of what appear to be internal Samsung materials.

This was also a part of the leaks and was actually looking a bit like something the Fold 3 could look like. This could be a possibility and if all the internal engineering and all the components are in production, because that way Samsung wouldn’t be able to execute last minute changes.

Looking at the Design, the Fold 3 doesn’t look too different to the Fold 2 based on the leaks and renders so far. There’s also the internal under-display camera which is a real new innovation, I’m not kidding. It is pretty notable. Geskin’s render suggests that the hinge will be slightly slimmer on the left side of the external display – a common complaint about the previous iteration.

Leaks from SamMobile suggest that the phone will be available in black and green, and possibly more colors – the leaked image above also shows what’s either a silver/chrome that changes colors or white.

A later leak from the same site also points to an IP rating for the phone – the first for a Samsung foldable – which leaker Chun corroborated, adding that he believes it will be an IP53 rating, rather than the stronger IP68 rating found on flagships like the S21 Ultra.

As you can see in the above image, the patent shows a series of touch-sensitive areas built into the phone’s frame. These can be used for tap, swipe, or squeeze gestures for a variety of control options, and with touch-sensitive areas on both frames you’ll get double the compatible surface area when the device is folded.

This would help solve the awkward placement of the inner camera on the Z Fold 2, which sits on the centre of one side of the panel, making it oddly placed when the screen is fully open. And if an under-display camera sounds far-fetched to you, bear in mind that Samsung has already debuted the tech in the Blade Bezel laptop, while you can also find it in a phone in the ZTE Axon 20 5G.

The S-Pen looks like it will be supported similarly to the S21 Ultra, and sold as a separate accessory rather than bundled in – partly because Samsung has struggled to find a way to make the new S Pen physically slot into the foldable, reports Naver. Apparently including the S Pen compromised efforts to shrink the Fold 3 and make it waterproof, so for now it’ll be a separate extra.

So, this is it, these renders and leaks were actually pretty cool, the Galaxy Fold 3 might turn out to be a pretty good device to use, who knows? The Under-Display Selfie Camera would be something to keep an eye on. We’ll have to see whether they did it better than ZTE or not. Signing off, hope you liked this one nerds
