The last version of the Galaxy Fold line of phones that I’ve used was the Galaxy Fold 2 back in 2020. Four more iterations on and Samsung has made massive strides in almost all aspect of the device (the Fold 2 didn’t even fold fully shut, remember that?!).Let’s start with the folding design while we are on it. The Fold 6 has departed from the softer edges that have graced the Fold lineup since its inception, with the side rails have a much sharper profile, matching the style set by the S24 series earlier in the year. I’ve been a fan of the straight sides since a certain famous phone of 2010 so I’m all for it, but I do admit that when the screen is now 7.6” as opposed to 3.5” of yesterdecade then it can dig into the palm of the hand a bit more now. All in all it ... MoreThe last version of the Galaxy Fold line of phones that I’ve used was the Galaxy Fold 2 back in 2020.

I’ve been a fan of the straight sides since a certain famous phone of 2010 so I’m all for it, but I do admit that when the screen is now 7.6” as opposed to 3.5” of yesterdecade then it can dig into the palm of the hand a bit more now. All in all it feels really solid, especially the hinge and the IP48 rating is a bonus, and is actually now lighter than some large non-folding phones, so feels really well balanced for the size.Onto the specs of the phone, and Samsung have delivered yet another great set of displays on this version of the Fold. Both outside and inside screen are fantastic. Colours look great and really pop (as expected on Samsung’s AMOLED screens), and the outside screen is becoming better with every iteration, slowly fattening out and becoming a more normal ratio rather than very long and skinny as per most previous Fold versions.Performance wise, the Fold 6 flies along using the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip. I played a few matches of Call of Duty Mobile on the Fold 6 and it never missed a beat whilst playing, and also didn’t seem to get absurdly hot which can be an issue when playing high intensity games like that.The cameras on the Fold 6 were pretty great in my limited time with the device. They aren’t flagship level sensors like you’ll find on the S24 Ultra, but are perfectly good. If cameras are the main feature you’re looking for on your phone then look elsewhere, it’s all about the screen over here, with cameras taking a secondary role (especially the under-screen selfie camera on the inside - yikes).To conclude, the Fold series has made some amazing strides in the last few years since I’ve last used one. Design is slowly moving in the right direction and the phone feels really solid now and not like it may break at any moment! A few more years and we are going to soon have the perfect folding device in our midst!

After spending a full day with the Fold 6, I can easily say it's an improvement over the Fold 4 I previously had in every way.The Fold 6 is a fantastic device.- Physical Dimensions & WeightStarting on physical aspects, the phone is much thinner and lighter, being thinner and lighter thaj my preivous Fold 4 even with a case.The device is also much easier to pocket now thanks to the sizing changes.- Hinge & CreaseThe hinge itself now feels much smoother, and feels to lock in place at either extremity in a much more definite and satisfying manner than the Fold 4. This makes it feel much more sturdy and durable.The crease on the Fold 6 is also much reduced compared to the Fold 4, however even on the Fold 4, the crease just disappears when actually looking at ... MoreAfter spending a full day with the Fold 6, I can easily say it's an improvement over the Fold 4 I previously had in every way.The Fold 6 is a fantastic device.- Physical Dimensions & WeightStarting on physical aspects, the phone is much thinner and lighter, being thinner and lighter thaj my preivous Fold 4 even with a case.The device is also much easier to pocket now thanks to the sizing changes.- Hinge & CreaseThe hinge itself now feels much smoother, and feels to lock in place at either extremity in a much more definite and satisfying manner than the Fold 4. This makes it feel much more sturdy and durable.The crease on the Fold 6 is also much reduced compared to the Fold 4, however even on the Fold 4, the crease just disappears when actually looking at the content on screen.- DisplaysIn terms of the displays, both appear to have much higher peak brightness levels, making it much easier to use the device outside in bright sunlight.The corners of the device are now far less rounded, which along with the marginal physical width and height changes end up providing a surprisingly large amount of extra space on both the outer and inner screens.As usual with Samsung displays, the image quality itself is fantastic, colours pop amazingly and details are impeccable.-- CamerasWhen it comes to the cameras, I have not had much opportunity to test these in different scenarios so far, but the few photographs I have taken have all turned out fantastically. The front camera and inner display's under display camera are more than adequate for use cases such as video calling.- Battery LifeThe battery of the Fold 6 is pretty good, after 7 hours of sceen on time, 4 hours screen off time, with all features enabled (WiFi, GPS, Mobile Data etc.) Whilst moving around in areas with low and absolutely no mobile signal, the device lost 78% of its total battery.- PerformanceThe Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 inside the Fold 6 is a very powerful chip, it is more than capable of performing any tasks you can throw at it with ease, the entirety of the OS is buttery smooth, games run perfectly, and multitasking is no problem at all.- AI FeaturesNow the highlight features for the newest Samsung devices are definitely the new AI features.Starting with the AI keyboard features, with the click of a button, it's possible to quickly compose entire paragraphs with just a short description in a number of different styles and with various tones.You can also change the tone of text you have already written to make it better suit different scenarios. Useful for composing a formal email if not familiar with writing in a formal manner for example.Then there's also a spelling and grammar checker, to give what you've written a proof read and fix any mistakes you may have made and not noticed.I've not had the opportunity to test any of the AI powered translation features yet as I don't frequently communicate in unfamiliar languages so am unable to comment on the effectiveness of this particular feature.In terms of photographs, the AI powered removal and movement tools are very nice to have, making it easy to select and move (or remove) any parts of a photograph and then quickly fill the void with reasonable content which generally looks very convincing.The sketching feature is a neat thing to play around with, but I'm not 100% sure on when it would be a useful feature, however it could potentially be useful for artists to get some inspiration for how to proceed with a sketch perhaps?It's possible to sketch either in the Samsung Notes app, or on physical paper and then take a photograph, then use the AI features to turn the sketch into a more realistic image again this is fun to play around with but I'm unsure as to where this would be a useful feature.An AI feature I really enjoyed is the photo ambient wallpaper, this takes a photograph you have taken (or perhaps one you have downloaded from the internet) and will dynamically add effectiveness such as snow or rain, and change lighting making it darker or lighter, depending on the conditions in your current location it's definitely a nice feature to add a bit of variety and keep things fresh, whilst also providing a little bit of information at a glance of the device.The last AI feature I have used in any real capacity has been the Browser Assistant features.These empower Samsung Internet, and enable you to quickly derive a summary from the content of a Web page, a very useful way to cut the cruft, skip the ads and just get the key details from the page.You're able to select the length of the summary to generate in case you wish to see more or less detail and it's been very useful for me so far.This feature is also able to translate pages, however I've not yet tested this functionality.- ValueThe Fold 6 is unquestionably an amazing device, but the price is also undoubtedly high and you are paying a premium for the device. Personally I believe the device is worth the money, though the extra storage options are a little too much extra compared to the base price. However the price is definitely too high for many people. I believe the Fold 6 is priced into such a market that it works only for high end enthusiasts who have to have the best of the best.- ConclusionOverall, the Fold 6 is an amazing device. It offers marginal improvements over previous Fold devices, tackling some outstanding pain points but there may not be enough changes to switch, depending on your own preferences. For anyone new to folding devices however, the Fold 6 is by far the best device on the market, and I highly recommend it to anyone new to folding devices, and believe it's a great upgrade for people on older folding devices who want a newer device.

Overall this is a good phone but, in my opinion, not a good buy.Been able to read clearly and easy is a most and the only reason I bough the Z Fold 6. Having a phone with the posibility of turning into a tablet was a very good selling point and why I sold myself into the Z Fold 6.I figure that, with years of experience and a few models sold before this one, by now, Samsung WOULD had heard about early complaints and suggestions of buyers of the previous models of the Z- Fold, and fine tune it to be a marvelous of engendering however, the phone is far from that and what I expected to be for the following reasons:1- The battery life is a joke, just writing this review, in the day time and while been inside, the phone consumed the top 10% of its charge.2- This ... MoreOverall this is a good phone but, in my opinion, not a good buy.Been able to read clearly and easy is a most and the only reason I bough the Z Fold 6.

Yes, you can argue that I can use the big foldable screen at all times to correct the above mentioned statement but, in that case, the battery will run out much faster and I will put a lot of stress on the folded screen and hinge plus I will also need to use both hands must of the time.4- The top screen is way too narrow to fit todays website standards and so, they look crowder or you will have to move the screen from side to side to see it all. I beleive that a 2 or 3 millimeters wider will have been perfect.5- The front faxing camera, for todays standards, its mediocre. The fact that it is a wide angle lens is great for a group selfies however, it's horrible when taking one of yourself. Also, when taking pictures at a low ambiance light, the pictures come out with low quality and undesirable effects like granulated pixels. For the price we are paying for this phone, Samsung should had included 2 front facing lenses (like one F38 plus the wide angle one) to acomodate every possibility.6- The folded screen by far is the best feature and the center of attention of everyone, aside for been the reason I bought this phone. You won't notice the folding crest at all and Samsung has gone over and beyond to make sure you don't.7- The sound, al though not too loud, is very good and give you options like "Dolby Atmos" something new to me in a cellular phone.8- Unlike Samsung's unfoldable form factor phones, this phone is not waterproof not completely dust proof so, I recommend you protect your investment by buying an using a protector cover that includes hinge protection at all times. Don't take a chance !!!.The Z fold format was not my only choice of foldable phones. They are other brands that make similar phones but, at least for now, Samsung is the only phone I will buy, other brands are not interested to me.I am happy with the big screen and also of having 2 separate screens on the same phone, just in case one of them break, I will still be able to access my phone and data on the other one.I hope I clear some of your questions and find this review helpful.
