The claim
Samsung's next book-style foldable returns to an under-display camera on the inner screen, with major internal changes but little change in thickness, positioned against the iPhone Duo.
Why we rated it Shaky
One tipster on X, relayed by GSMArena. The same source earlier claimed 3.9mm unfolded and 7.9mm folded, which clashes with 'minimal thickness changes' given the current wide Fold8 is 4.5mm and 9.7mm, and it is unclear which Fold9 model is meant. Samsung used under-display cameras from the Fold3 to Fold6, so it is technically plausible, but the sourcing is thin and internally inconsistent.
