Galaxy Z Flip 6 After 2 Weeks: Finally Good?

[@PeteMatheson]

Hey ladies and gents! Thanks for tuning in to this week's video. Quick question: What upcoming tech releases are you MOST EXCITED for? Comment below 👇

S24 ultra is much better than the flip

[@majtechtings]

I'm a foldable guy and I've kinda stayed from the clamshells but... Samsung seems far more invested in the flip than the fold series...I'm close to adding the flip 6 to my collection...it looks like a lot more fun that before.

[@PeteMatheson]

Yeah I’ve always gone for folds too myself, but this year the flip has been a really nice change!

[@phillatella6470]

I bought it as a second phone. Loved it so much, I made my S2 ultra my 2nd phone

[@al6377]

I just got this Flip6 coming from a Samsung S23 ultra and I love it.. the folding thing is lots of fun with the two screens. Really happy!!

[@esmooth919]

To each their own. I've always been a fan of phones that I can actually freaking *_pocket._* The Z Flip, and other phones like it have always appealed to me for two reasons: 1) as a teenager who grew up with flip phones, I'm nostalgic for them. 2) every other smartphone is ginormous, and some of them are wannabe tablets... Which is also why I don't care for the $2,000 plus folds

[@majtechtings]

@@esmooth919 I can fit book style foldables in my pocket but I totally understand folks wanting something more compact. I had nextel's and razr's in college and I do miss that style.

[@tylerwessling3060]

Coming from iPhone 13 mini to Flip 6. Im really enjoying it, and i think throughout the day, i find myself using the outer screen more than opening it. Especially while working, taking a quick glance at text and replying on outer is awesome

[@ellerichofficial]

Hey! I'm considering the same. how was the transfer app wise and stuff? could you take all your apps/photos etc to the samsung? thanks!!

It's basically a desktop level PC you can fold and put in your pocket, with a front screen purely for some added convenience. Absolutely glorious, is how I would describe my experience with it.

[@Bacon7666]

I am not someone who keeps upgrading phones but the reason why I ended up with this phone was because I needed a phone with more storage and I came across with this flip 6" I am really happy with my phone .

[@truckerlee5975]

Gettin the flip....I've had enough of carrying slabs about. Excellent video by the way.

[@heakk1]

i have a flip5 and you're right it just feels way more comfortable carrying on day to day basis now i can never go back to a traditional slab phone cause it's too big to fit in pocket or hold around

[@LynyrdSkynyrd859]

😃

[@ArEmGee88]

Loved this video! You're right, phones just don't seem to be fun these days and this one breaks the mold. I think a lot of flagships have plateaued in terms of new features. Definitely considering changing my S23 Ultra for the flip, although I might hold off to see if the next gen has more zoom. The outer screen would definitely result in less screen time, which as a toddler dad, is vital!

[@ArEmGee88]

Sent my wife this video after her S22+ contract was up. She upgraded and loves it....Tesco Mobile now owe you some commission 😂😂

[@t-bone1898]

I love my Samsung Z Flip 6. Definitely a phone that i can see having for at least the next 4 years unless they make something better.

[@brechany]

Tried the Flip6 and the Razr 50 Ultra (plus in USA). Went for the Razr. Just liked it better. Each to their own.

[@Raine-97]

Getting one tomorrow! ❤ Gonna trade in my iPhone 14 Pro! Ugh so excited to have something different from everyone else. I’m bored of Apple. I’ve basically had the same phone since I was 15. I want an upgrade. 🥰

[@prettyadorkableash5152]

Just got my Flip Z6. Live in Vegas. I can see the screen so well despite the intense desert sun

[@toprakcemsavas3132]

I was just looking for a review of a phone I was interested in but this video was so cool and so cute I enjoyed it so much. And the music choice at the end, icing on the cake!

[@christopherkinslow5432]

The upgrades are definitely worth it, even coming from a flip 5. I dont have battery anxiety anymore, the phone doesnt run that hot, and it has consistent daily performance on top of the other things that already made it magical in the previous model

[@gintoki_sakata__]

Agreed I'm happy about the camera

[@iHernandez620]

After a year of considering a flip phone I finally got one about 1 days ago . I was deciding between the Motorola razr and the Z flip. But I got a deal on the flip through my carrier . So far I like it . Different from my P7P. I definitely like the "stock" android of the google pixel better . But its only been 2 days

[@harry-ny5pp]

i have had this phone for 2 months and luv it, best phone I've ever had.Very light to carry and outside screen is great.

[@maryhelton9217]

Hi have a few questions if you don’t mind how bad is the crease in the middle?does it make a crackle sound when you open and close it?did your screen quit responding when you touched it or go black after only a few weeks of having it?sorry for all the questions thinking of getting one but have seen people on reviews complain about those questions I asked just want to see if those things happen on the flip 6 thanks again

[@henrysir6764]

Hi...i I've had the phone for 4 months. I took great care of it, never dropped it. But the main inside screen started to go black on me 2 weeks ago and the outside screen was the only one working. I took it into the Samsung store and they did a diagnostic on it and told me the screen would have to be replaced which would take 7 days,due to the screens being on backorder. The strange thing was... in the lineup there were 3 other people that had the same issue with the flip 6... this spooked me a bit. I got it replaced and now it's working properly. I will monitor this very careful because I only have the one year warranty.... they told me it would cost $450 cdn outside of the warranty..the crease is noticeable but it doesn't bother me because the flip is so convenient and easy to carry around . The phone started making a noise when opening and closing ... and now after replacing the screen it is working fine.the technician said they have corrected some of the issues on the screens, only time will tell, I hope they really have corrected these issues, because it's a great phone.

[@maryhelton9217]

@henrysir6764 hopefully since it has been out for a few months they have corrected the issues so when If I do get one I won't have those problems how is the battery on it

[@henrysir6764]

​@maryhelton9217 the phone is very Compact and easy to carry around.the battery will typically last me 1.5 days. If you purchase stay in touch with your local Samsung store, even if there are small issues,they will run a free diagnostic. The flip 6 already comes with a built-in screen protector and at the Samsung store they suggest you don't get one. Make sure you have an outside phone cover to protect the phone. I have 2 with the kickstand.

[@anishkanna92]

[@roywesten7319]

I love my Flip 6; it's so much fun. I just hope that in the future, they can make the folding screen a bit more durable. It's very easy to damage at the moment, but that's the only issue. I still love the foldable form factor.

I got a question : what if u use an app that isn’t supported for fold devices, like if u used nova launcher in it, and u closed the phone, and again open, so would it bug? Like glitch or something?

No issues at all as it just treats it like a single screen 👍

Does the screen damage after 4 years? Cause you flip it in and out so much

The ZFlip6 seems cool especially the crafted black one, but $400 more is too much compared to the Razr- 2024 for $699 which is still alot of money. The Razr- 2024 is my first flip phone it’s awesome, and the best phone I have had.

[@MrExBearPoker]

It's a excellent phone. If your looking for a flip phone it's the best. Remember this is new technology. So they can't do everything we would like at once. They have to make things happen but not to where the phone will catch on fire. But outside of that you will have zero issues with this phone. The side button may be a problem for you guys with little fingers. But for us normal people you can reach. And as far as shape edges go, there isn't. And on top of that, you will more than likely buy a phone case. If you want nip pick then I'm sure you can find something. But the phone is great and I love it. The fold is what I wanted but couldn't bring myself to spend $2,000 again. For a phone if the screen messes up they will ask me to pay up to $500 to get it fixed. It's what happened to my Z fold 3. And I bought it straight up. Anyways love the flip 6😊
