Sketchy new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 mockup envisions massive cover screen

There are plenty of reasons we can think of why the Galaxy Z Flip 4 is (by far) the world's top-selling foldable device, but that tiny 1.9-inch Super AMOLED display found on the outside of a bendy 6.7-inch screen with 120Hz refresh rate support... probably doesn't make the cut as one of the handset's 10 key strengths.

Compared to the competition, it's arguably one of the key weaknesses, as Motorola's third-gen reimagined Razr, for instance, rocks a significantly larger and more useful 2.7-inch cover display. Incredibly enough, there appears to be another Razr edition in the pipeline with an even bigger second screen, but hardcore Samsung fans may not have that much to worry about after all.

That's because the number one global smartphone manufacturer (and number one foldable vendor) is unsurprisingly preparing a huge upgrade of its own in that crucial department for the next-gen Galaxy Z Flip 5, expected for quite some time now and depicted today by one of the most reputable sources of Samsung-related information on the interwebs.
That's a lot of (external) screen real estate

Unfortunately, SamMobile is not exactly specialized in producing high-quality renders of unreleased and unannounced devices, so instead of that, what we're looking at today is a barebones Galaxy Z Flip 5 design mockup... that nonetheless does a decent enough job to get its point across.

Fortunately, that's precisely what YouTube channel Technizo Conceptis specialized in, recently partnering with a Korean leaker going by the alias "Super Roader" to showcase one possible Z Flip 5 design in great detail and perfect clarity.

At the time, the concept renders were deemed "confirmed" and "200000 percent real" by their creators, but that purported leak flew under our radar for one very simple reason: a batch of images produced by the same people just a few days earlier that looked a teensy bit different.

But now that SamMobile's presumably independent sources have apparently "confirmed" that the newer concept is "pretty spot on", we're officially ready to get excited. No, the Z Flip 5 external screen will reportedly not be split in two separate sections after all, instead getting a decidedly unconventional and undeniably groovy shape and sitting "somewhere between" 3 and 4 inches in size.
