Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 vs Z Flip 5 Camera After 2 Weeks: Upgrade?

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 vs Galaxy Z Flip 5 camera test comparison is highly requested because of the new 50MP Main and 12MP Ultrawide and I took it around Paris and London to test it out in the real world! It was a vital part of my family trip and I honestly believe there is no form factor that fits family vacations better than the flip. BUT is the camera actually an upgrade or is it a downgrade? This part of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 camera review will be a mixed bag. For Galaxy Z Flip 6 unboxing and review make sure you subscribe!

Camera Comparisons are BACK! Did you miss them? Thumbs up if you want more. What do you think is the Z Flip 6 an upgrade in camera or a downgrade?

Hopefully samsung continue not to over brighten and over sharpen shots. It needs to remain as is

The Z Flip 6 is great but for regions with rubbish trade-ins, upgrading from the 4 or 5 is not a great value choice. For people coming from the 3 or first-miners and returners, then this will hopefully be a better experience than what has come before.

Though, for me, it remains a lifestyle choice. There is simply no way I will pay £1050 for specs that will cost half that in a candy bar phone. There are millions with more disposable income than me so they may think that value is not as important as what they perceive the Flip 6 as. No problem—buy whatever you want, but not for me until it falls to nearer £600 in a few weeks…

we buy the Z Flip because of the form factor of it. if others dont like the camera it's offering, then this isn't the phone for you. #TeamFlip

it's clear the 6 has more detail, natural colors (more realistic), less processing. I feel like they made the 5 process more to compensate for the subpar camera.

[SceneDollx]

In the first clip, you are brave walking like that with two phones 😂

[jorge_the_first]

That's a huge step forward to a well processed photo! I loved the changes and hopefully we see that more and more.

Thank you for the comparison. I do like the natural processing better on the flip 6. However I think a lot of people may migrate to the Razr for its oversaturated and brighter photos this year.

Im really happy to see the clariry improvements in the zoom function when cropped. Thats huge.

I've had the Flip 6 for around 5 days now and here are my main takeaways about the camera:

- I love the new processing. It's a bit more muted and it's way easier on the noise reduction. Shots at night have clearly visible noise now, which I found to be a good thing. Earlier phones would smooth out the noise and smudge details in the process.

- Night mode is 9 of out 10 times just horrible and useless. Especially in auto mode. It rarely adds detail and it usually only adds brightness and oversharpening. It seems only beneficial in very dark circumstances, near pitch black.

- IMPORTANT to note that, while night mode is 'useless', the actual night performance is very good. The Auto mode outperforms the night mode most of the time.

- shooting a photo is very quick now! Barely any delays! I love it.

This is a fantastic camera comparison video

Currently using my Pixel 8 Pro mainly for pics of the kids but using the the Z Flip 6 as my main device. Pixels Portrait mode is absolutely amazing. I know i shouldn't compare them but i hope future software updates on the Flip 6 will help bring the camera at least close to Pixel quality. I feel the Flip 6 needs that sharper boost. They look good compared the Flip 5 but when compared to the P8P even my kids say it looks bad. But hey my Pixel can't fold into a more compact size like the Z Flip and that's a big deal for me.

I've never owned any previous Z Flips so thank you for the great comparison review!

Excellent review, very detailed and informative. Beautiful family you have there too sir

[joywebb]

I was brought her by a YouTuber bc I mention I wanted to see a comparison between the 2. I enjoy my flip 5 alot. I just wish Samsung would stop treating it as a midranger just bc it flips. I would love to have top tier specs as the s line. First time I'm leaning towards not upgrading 😒. Thanks for sharing

[misslolab]

I love the brighter and vibrant colors on my Flip 5. I guess i could always color correct it after on the Flip 6. Very good video. Thanks, I now have to see if I'll go ahead with the preorder.

[mykittenisagrandmaster]

They do look very similar except in some areas to where it's a little darker on certain objects compared to the other one being lighter on certain objects

[Beebeequeen]

Switching from the iPhone 15 pro max to the zflip6 ❤ can’t wait

[TheVisionaryLeo]

Wow! Good to see how the 50mp definitely change the quality of the flip series. I have the flip 5, i went back to my s21 ultra because i miss the camera quality. Especially if i want to xook in somewhere.

But to knoe the flip 6 shows it actually have more natural tones, not blurry shen you show me mpre than 2x.

Great video!

[ljacobs]

Grear job. I'll stay with my Z Flip 5.

[earthsruby]

I generally like the camera of the 6 better, but I actually am a fan of having a bit sharper photos. I've never had a Samsung before; is there a way to manually get the same/a similar effect with the 6..?

[Alexander]

Definitely more pleasing with the more natural processing, that much detail isn't very natural so im pleased it looks like a better balance this time round. Just bought a z flip 6 from Ebay for £730 - unreal how quickly the price drops on the private market, £300 less than retail and it came out a matter of days ago 😆😄 I never keep my phones for that long so not worth paying retail price for me
