Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 on Geekbench 

As seen above, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 gets a single-core score of 1,124 and a multi-core score of 3,350, which sits in line with the scores of other Snapdragon 888 powered smartphones out there.

Galaxy Z Fold 3 specifications

Previous reports told us that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 will pack a 6.2-inch FHD+ AMOLED panel as the outer screen. The foldable screen will use a 7.5-inch flexible AMOLED panel made of UTG (ultra-thin-glass). Both screens will refresh at 120Hz and support HDR10+. S Pen support is said to be included, too. 

Moving on to the cameras, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 will, for the most part, reuse the Galaxy Z Fold 2’s triple-camera array. The primary 12MP sensor will be accompanied by a 12MP telephoto lens and a 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens. This time around, however, all three lenses will support PDAF(phase detection autofocus). Moving on to the selfie cameras, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 will use a 10MP module on the smaller display and a 16MP under-display camera on the main screen.
