Samsung has announced the latest version of its Universal Flash Storage (UFS) solution and version 4.0 will go into mass production during the third quarter of this year. UFS 4.0 will deliver big-time gains in speed and efficiency for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. We could see the UFS 4.0 storage solution debut on the latest versions of Sammy’s new foldables like the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4. If not, UFS 4.0 is likely to mark its first appearance on the 2023 Galaxy S23 flagship series.
