I’m 72. So when I happily leapt from Apple to the Flip 4 I was used to opening and closing the case having longed for another flip phone to come out. I upgraded to the 5 and was tempted by the 6 for a few reasons, one of which you skipped over, namely the vapor chamber that’s supposed to keep the phone cooler. Otherwise, the extra rem, larger battery and slightly improved camera made it tempting. But since I’m probably too old to notice a difference in practical use over the benchmark stuff, I’m staying put for now. Perhaps I should mention the crease never bothered me. I understand it annoys some people from the get go. It’s also supposed to be improved with each new iteration.

i am definitely happy with the Z Flip 6….i have it as my secondary device. it replaced my Pixel 8 Pro. i had a Z Flip 3 before and missed those phones. it’s so cool. i would try and make it my daily driver, but i’m so entrenched into Apple’s ecosystem. but, when i’m home….i find myself using the Z Flip 6 more. phones like this are so different and in a world of the same candy bar like phones….these phones are refreshing.

Nooooooooo! You left out the ability to fold & hold the Flip 6 sideways like a camcorder's articulating screen during video mode

Love the design of this. Think it looks super. As an iPhone user though, not sure I could make the switch. Not because I think android is worse vs Apple, it’s just that by this stage (after so many years) I’m too far into the Apple ecosystem. Don’t want to have to go around replacing all my gadgets. The iPhone is essentially the same every year. They’ve perfected the form factor so never looks any different really. I love how this stands out from the majority of the glass slabs we get these days. This is some proper innovation from Samsung.

The cover screen has a 60 hz refresh rate, not 120. IP 48 means water resistant up to 1.5 meter (the 8 in 48) and dust resistant for particles up to 1 mm in diameter (= 4 in 48)

I love the idea of the flip. Having a full size phone in such a small form factor. Just not sure I could give up my 5x zoom…. Still got a year on my current handset anyway, so let’s see what the Flip 7 brings. As this feels more like the minor upgrade in the usual tic-toc pattern, hopefully next year will be a more substantial change
@MissSmurfey27 күн бұрын
Same, I’d miss the zoom too on my 15PM. But if the flip 7 gets a full cover screen, telephoto lens and better night time mode for pics I’ll def jump on the Flip wagon 🥳

I have one coming tomorrow, paid extra to get a black one direct from Samsung though they are discounting the 512mb to $1099; curiously, they haven't dropped the price for the 256mb, it's still $1099, too. The 512 is on sale on Amazon for $949 but the black, white & peach are only available from Samsung.

I'm aaalmost a Samsung Knight, but I just don't like the Z Flip. The outer display totally destroys it, and that's why I prefer the Moto RAZR 50 Ultra (razr+). That 4" front display just smashes the Flip6 in both size and with hrtz. Short said, the RAZR is a better device😎 I could not have used any flip phone as my main device, but I always carry 2-4 phones so... 🤘 From Norway 🇧🇻

Hey mark, great review as always. Little heads up, the cover screen actually only has 60hz (not trying to be one of those know it alls). I was actually really disappointed by the fact they didn't upgrade that in this version. Have a great evening 👍🏼.

I have an S22. I am a Samsung lover. Mostly use the phone for normal use - text/phone/social media watching (I don't create much content). I do love the camera on the S22 and take tons of photos and videos of everyday life (again, not really a content creator). Anyone have any advise for me - upgrade to Z Flip 6 or just the S24+? I have never had a flip. Only reason I fancy the Z Flip is the cool new flip, size of carrying it around, and with my carrier I can get the 512GB option where the other Galaxys are only available in 128 or the S24+ in 258. I have 258GB in my S22 now and running out of storage (take a lot of photos and videos and am a hoarder) so extra storage is a plus for me.

The upcoming iPhone 16 Pro is expected to be priced similarly to the Flip 6, but it’s likely to retain its value much better. In my opinion, there’s no compelling reason to buy the Flip 6 over the iPhone, especially if you don’t already own an iPhone. There are numerous excellent Android phones available for less than the Flip 6, making it a less practical choice for most consumers. Given these factors, I can understand why demand for the Flip 6 has been lower than Samsung had anticipated. In South Korea, pre-orders for the Flip 6 were only 10% higher than expected, compared to Samsung’s projected 10% increase. Additionally, I’ve noticed that KZbin reviews and views of the Flip 6 have been significantly lower than I had anticipated. It seems that people are realizing that the Flip 6’s unique form factor is not as groundbreaking as it was initially thought. The Flip 6 has managed to carve out a small niche in the smartphone industry, but it doesn’t stand out from its competitors. Its target audience is likely to be loyal fans, and it offers a solid upgrade for those who live in this world. However, I’m not convinced that it has moved the goalposts enough to maintain the expected growth rates. Additionally, the hype surrounding the foldable phone taking over the industry seems a long way off.

"you charge it over night , does that even matter ", you know that batteries have limited charge cycles and the more you recharge the faster it degrades? also my iPhone 11 has 3000mah battery and it holds almost twice as long as the flip6 with 4000mah battery.

I went from an iPhone 15 pro max(256gb) and an apple watch 9(45mm) to a Z flip 6(256gb) in black and a Samsung watch 7(44mm) green.No regrets so far and I'm quite surprised how good the 2X and 4X zoom crops are.I just hope it holds up to usage I still can't get my head around bendable glass doesn't seem durable long term.Time will tell.Apple products are dependable but boring and suit older people more like pensioners
