At present, the tech giant is on 'final' testing for the Z Fold 5's device, which will also feature the new 'waterdrop' hinge design, reports 9To5Google.
Talking about the screen, the device is expected to come with flex inwards as the handset closes rather than folding at a tight radius. This would certainly provide many advantages to the device, like a less noticeable crease on the display and no gap when the phone is folded.
