Why I LOVE the Galaxy Z Fold 6!

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is probably one of my favorite foldables this year, and not because of Samsung's software, but more so on how Samsung managed to refine its hardware and took everything they did on the Z Fold 5, but elevated it just a hint. Now, the question is, is newer always better? And if so, is this new Fold really worth it? Well, I spent a month with Samsung's new fold, so let's talk about it.

I bought 25% off and it's amazing. Phone and tablet 2 in 1. Currently using it beside my 15 Pro, but I have a feeling the 15 Pro won't last long alongside this beast.

I think the Z Fold 3 to the 6 is better than anything OnePlus has. Especially when trading in devices, OnePlus has a fourth of it value.

I don't know if it's perfect... but in the US, there's no other options besides Pixel Fold 2 and OnePlus Open. But like you said, pricing is ridiculous for foldables and the Samsung trade-in is very good.

this phone has changed my life, what an absolute masterpiece.. I love mine

I've been using iPhone for years and just switched to s23 ultra last year to use both devices together. Recently changed to zfold 6 thinking i wouldnt like the cover screen much, but I actually find the cover screen pretty easy to get used to size wise, very comfortable to hold it one hand and typing is fairly easy too, not as bad as I thought

Give me Samsung any day. One Plus has TERRIBLE customer support, bad trade in values, and there are a LOT of people who both the One Plus Open who was sorry later. The screens were cracking for no reason, and the hinge was failing. They sent their phone in for repair only to not get it back for 4-5 weeks. Who wants that? But all anyone wants to take about to put them in from the theZ- Fold is the front cover. I even heard one reviewer say that the front cover needs to be like the one on the S24 Ultra. Really?? that is so stupid because once you do that..then the inside cover has to become bigger and when that happens...you have a tablet not a smartphone. The S24 ultra screen cover is 6.8. Come on no one want s a foldable with a front screen that big. If that's the case keep the slab phone.

Wow that pink is not pink at all. Google did pink best this year!

Honestly, they are two different flagships that cater to different audiences not everyone is ready to jump into a foldable and still like the candy bar design. And yes, the s24 ultra has the better cameras that are superior to the ones on the z-fold six and it has a silo to put in the S Pen something the fold six still doesn't but the Z fold six. It's still Superior because not only are you getting a device with a 7.6 inch display. You're also getting a decent size cover display and a phone that offers you a much refined and better way of multitasking that allows you to open not only windows in split view, but you can also have floating windows on top of split view. Yes, a battery could be a little better and improved. But if you're the type of person that enjoys multitasking watching content on YouTube or have a subscription in applications that allows you to watch sports then it's a no-brainer does Z fold six is a device to have because it does things better than the s24 ultra in my opinion and both are designed for different audiences and people buy the phones based on what they're looking for and what they want in the device.

Unlocked then switch to visible. Pays for itself

Samsung needs to stop saturating their photos and screens and they’ll have a real contender.

[kopkiwi]

OnePlus is the foldable to beat. This aint getting close.

[michaelkn]

Incredible phone. Upgraded from the S21 Ultra, which btw is still perfectly fine to use. The only gripe I would have with the Z Fold 6, is the camera. They're garbage compared to the Ultra line, especially considering the price of the device. Otherwise 9/10.

[sanghaviraj]

Brought is at 132000 indian rs which stands at 20%
Though i thought i wud never buy any fold after my fold 4 got a black inner screen after no fault of mine,
But i cud not make any swtich
Cause i was spoilt with folds rich offering, since i use phone for my work, for designing and editing, u just cant go for any other phone

But to my shock
The fold 6 just improved all the short comings
That is cover screen
It is much more usable, I'm typing all this from the fronr screen
And the square form factor makes all the diff
Especially with typing,
Now the only thing is durability which only time will tell
For that i just brought two years of Samsung care

All hppy for this phone
Other then the price

If samsung really brings down the price ans free service this can easily beat any phone

[SooHooSamaSito]

Getting updates with an unlocked version before a carrier phone gets them is highly inaccurate.

[fizziefizzer]

You end the day with 40% left? Brooo do u even use the phone 😭😅

I usually need a top up at 5pm and I don’t even game on it 😅

[andyH_England]

It’s a nice folding phone, but perfect is stretching credibility, it is a long way from that. A few reasons:
1/ Needs a larger battery; 4400mAh is the worst of any fold.
2/ The front display needs to be wider in line with the competition; deal-breaker for millions until then.
3/ No s-pen silo.
4/ S-pen does not work on the front display.
4/ All three cameras are subpar.
5/ The price, still rising and awful value outside the US that do not have trade-in deals.
6/ Still issues in China with complaints about failures.
7/ No anti-glare front displays, especially the front.
8/ Needs 16GB of RAM for a $2000 device now AI is going to be a thing.
9/ The inner under-display camera sucks and should be killed off.
10/ Too thick.
11/ Needs better cooling.
12/ Charging remains slow compared to Chinese rivals.
No phone is perfect to be honest but the Fold 6 is one of the furthest folds away from that description.

Not sure how you can say with a
straight face the f6 is almost perfect!!!! It is full of bloatware is it not? Battery killer bloatware. I don't need Samsung programs running in the background when I want nothing to do with them. My zfold is full of unnecessary bloatware.

[davidnhc]

Fold has lot of problem ….I regretted to with samsung

[Markus]

Outer screen is still too narrow. Battery is very small and charging speed is pathetic. Cameras aren't that good. But, its still a damn good package overall. I have this and the OnePlus Open. The Open is better in most ways. But, I love the boxy design and build quality of the Z Fold 6. I put anti-glare matte screen protectors on the outer and inner screens. I put an aramid MagSafe case on it and haven't looked back. I do really miss the charging speed and the cameras and the multitasking on the OnePlus Open. But, i plan on using the Z Fold 6, unless i get the Pixel 9 Pro Fold... Then who knows lol
