One UI 9 spotted for Samsung's mysterious new Galaxy Z Fold

Samsung is working on two new Galaxy Z Fold smartphones this year. In addition to the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Samsung is reportedly developing another Fold that, based on its model number, could be a slightly cheaper device. It seems development on this new Fold is coming along swimmingly.
