Samsung may eliminate this major foldable flaw with Galaxy Z Flip 6, Fold 6

Foldable smartphones are incredibly cool, but they cost a pretty penny — and when you're spending that much on a phone, you expect it to last a while. While durability is leaps and bounds better than the first-generation Galaxy Fold, it remains a serious concern for foldable users. Samsung cracked (oops, maybe a poor choice of words) water resistance starting with the Galaxy Z Fold 3, but dust resistance has continued to elude it. 

Currently, the only foldable phones in North America that offers any dust resistance are Motorola's new Razr phones. But mixed into a huge leak by Evan Blass on X (via Android Central) is one small, yet crucial detail: Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6 phones might be joining the dust-resistant ranks.
