I have the Z Flip 6 and there are small but meaningful upgrades. The crease is hardly noticeable, it comes with more ram and cameras are much better than the Flip 5. The cover screen is quite useful, but you have to install Good Lock to load the apps. Why Samsung hasn’t made more native cover screen apps is a mystery to me. And it does support a Dex like interface but it is difficult to use. The price increase in the US is not as important as the trade in values.

The biggest upgrade with the flip 6 is the enhanced durability and seven year update policy.Cameras are better, the battery is better.The extra ram is a godsend and the made for galaxy Snapdragon gen 3 future proofs the device.But my favourite upgrade is the black edition with Matt sides it goes amazing with my Spigen Aramid case.

These phones have evolved into very refined enjoyable gadgets

Good review. About the LG vacuum cleaners, it's funny that they moved away from phones but are sponsoring phone reviews. It seemed a little bit random but I think you could have included it in the camera portion of the video. if you own a LG vacuum, you could have showed off the phone's video camera and mic by filming an LG vacuum, kinda like how in one of your ear bud reviews the advert was in the mic test which I thought was smart.

I do like the look of the Samsung hardware this year, but for flip phones, the Motorola Razrs this year are also looking like a much better option. Software that is closer to stock is right for me.

I went for a Flip 6 coming from a S22 Ultra and I am loving it so far. I have eyed these foldables since the first generation and Samsung has come very far since then but is a shame to see how behind they are in the space. I got it to downsize from the massive Ultra series and to hopefully use my phone less, which has actually worked quite well. However, I do find myself longing for a telephoto lens for those times I need to zoom in on a QR code across a table or check a flight board without moving lol.
Great video - i would have never even bothered to look at the Google and Oneplus phones without this :)

[hojomo]

Thanks. So glad I came over from Threads to check these out. Have S24 Ultra + Watch6 Classic, you have confirmed why I say "Never Again"! 😊

[BrianGlaze]

These are some cool aesthetic changes and the slightly wider screen is good. For someone that has a Zold 5, like myself, I wonder how much of a difference is felt.

[justinwaltman]

What's a "power user"? Thanks for the info.

[wilbertandrews]

have you heard about écoute headphones "the world's only vacuum tube headphones"? I would be interested to see a review

[markdavenportjr]

Excellent review I am totally going to get the Fold 6 this October and get off of Att. :)

[roguephoenix]

trying to decide if the flip 6 is worth $350 with flip 5 trade in. i get more ram, battery, and better camera, plus it's newer so life of the parts "should" be better. plus the 6 has the dual sim which i will need for upcoming travels which the flip 5 does not.

I use a Fold 4 and that screen not opening fully is such a shot at my ocd self. So i just use the outside screen and open the phone only to use it as a stand to take photos. Repairing is out of the question ain't no way, I'm spend nearly $400 to replace the whole internal display unit.

I'll buy a new fold, only when they fix that issue also improve the cameras, how are they still using ancient sensors on modern super premium phone. Like atleast try please, Samsung.

Waiiit, a phone that flips down could be really ideal for women who are deeply saddened by how stupidly tiny their pockets are...

I still have my Samsung S20 FE, and ever since then, I'm good. Still perfectly happy with the specs. Before that I was waiting for a phone that would finally give me a camera that can take a photo inside in semi low light, and the FE did that. It's not even the flagship (my first non-flagship phone), because I didn't need it.

I only care about a very short list of basic features that I want done well, so it's an interesting situation. My FE actually has a thing where the damn phone will restart if I access the camera after like 4 seconds. The way usually around it is to open the camera, then open the windows or whatever ("recents" apparently), and then click back into the camera. For whatever stupid reason. That's a REALLY annoying one, because when you're taking a photo, usually time is of the essence, but no, now I gotta wait like 3 minutes. Super irritating.

Buying a whole new phone for this dumb nonsense is pretty bad. I wonder what the Samsung S20 FE replacement phone is (maybe Samsung, definitely Android), that has specs that are not worse than the FE but also they don't have to be like, any better... don't need to spend ALL the money now.

I agree with you i i big iPhone users and i was excited to get it and I did and 1 days in with fold 6 and flip 6 I don’t see any difference from last year and the battery sucks dies fast and takes forever to charge, but I think the pixel will destroy both of those phones. If not, I’m going back to the iPhone.😂

[BrianGlaze]

Samsung has definitely fallen behind in the foldable space. The OnePlus Open and the Pixel Fold are preferrable to me.

[T.On.Things]

Hey Brandon. By any chance are you in Amsterdam on 31 July 2024? I thought I saw you.

[Peterstarzynskitech]

They just dont wow me. Theres nothing exciting. They need to upgrade to 65 watt charging.
