Whoops! A Galaxy Z TriFold prototype shows four rear cameras

Samsung's first tri-folding smartphone, the Galaxy Z TriFold, was recently announced. It'll be available later this week in South Korea and sometime early next year in the USA. This phone-tablet hybrid has three rear-facing cameras, but Samsung might have once made a variant of the device with four rear cameras.

We have spotted a LinkedIn post that displays a Galaxy Z TriFold, but it has four rear-facing cameras instead of three. Its images were posted by Omar Saheb, who is the VP Marketing & E-commerce at Samsung Electronics MENA (Middle East and North Africa). As you can see the images above and below, the phone appears to have four rear-facing cameras.

Since it is too early for the second-generation Galaxy Z TriFold to leak, it is likely one of the many prototypes that Samsung designed before finalizing the final design of its first tri-folding phone. We noticed that the fourth camera (the one at the bottom) on the rear is much thinner than the other three.

While the Galaxy Z TriFold has a capable 200MP primary camera, some fans and enthusiasts expected to see better ultrawide and telephoto cameras on the phone. It has a 12MP ultrawide camera with autofocus and a 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom and OIS. A fourth camera, possibly a 50MP sensor paired with a 5x optical zoom lens, could have definitely made the phone more capable in terms of imaging.
