Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 may not arrive with an IP58 rating after all
With the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 launch expected later this month, we can now look forward to some last minute spec leaks and clarifications. According to long-time tipster Ice Universe who holds a solid track record in terms of Samsung leaks, Galaxy Z Fold5 will not launch with an IP58 dust and water resistance rating.
The latest tweet from Ice Universe comes after a recent report which suggested the Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 will launch with an IP58 rating which would be a first for foldable phones. The upcoming foldables from Samsung will likely retain the IPX8 rating for water resistance found on their predecessors.
In addition to denying the IP58 rating rumors, the tipster suggests that the crease on the Z Fold5’s inside panel will be the same as on the Z Fold4 claiming the crease looks “indistinguishable” between the two devices.
