No for now, I am using S24+ because I like the screen ratio, I am not a fan of the screen ratio they had with Fold 5/6 And I would suggest getting rip of the front camera in the inner display

If you're someone who reads, watches a lot, then z fold 6 is better than the other regular phones and its predecessor In my opinion.

I went back and forth for months trying to decide on staying with Samsung or trying out OnePlus Open. At the end of the day, because of the overall experience, the software, the ecosystem, the customer service, I decided to get the Fold 6. Is it the best in terms of outer screen size? No. Does it have the best cameras? No. Does it have the longest lasting battery? No. Is it the best overall device (in my opinion) and a joy to daily use? Yes! I'm very happy with it.

just look after it, get SAMSUNG CARE+. with folds they the hinge is likely to fail at some point, or screen cracks, if you have scratches on the outside or lens cracks then your warranty is void, as it's a replaceable unit, read the fine print. Samsung are notoriously bad when it comes to warranty repair.

they don't use these phones for practical features, they just try out the new and fun gimmicky features or run some benchmarks and then continue on with their lives, just using insta and youtube or something. I'd say they don't even care about cameras, if it weren't for them basically working as youtubers who compare cameras, I doubt they'd complain about a Galaxy A55. Credit where credit is due Tom is a mostly real one and instead of thinking of his actions as malicious I think he just makes some errors or has some quirks. 95% of reviewers on the net I just can't trust anymore, trying to please the companies with positive reviews. Think about it, if some of the cons include something so minor as table wobble, that'll for sure be fixed with a case, would you care? Nope, companies want that, they want you to think the only problems are those minor ones that you don't care about. Not the fact that if you got the Z Fold3 you'd have gotten 95% of the experience.

Going from a 4 to a 6 i can say it is definitely worth it. I can actually type on the front screen as it's bigger, and it slimmed down the bulk so much compared to the 4 that I no longer feel like I'm smuggling a literal brick in my pocket it's way closer to the size of a normal smart phone and I would say with a thin case possibly slimmer than some normal phones with those rugged cases

If you're considering purchasing a Samsung Galaxy Flip or Fold phone, I strongly suggest you think twice. As a loyal Samsung user, I bought a Galaxy Flip 5 less than a year ago, and it already has two pink lines and a black dot on the screen. After a lot of back-and-forth with customer service, they finally asked me to reset the phone yesterday, Friday, August 9, 2024. Today, I went to the Samsung store at Westfield Stratford, where I was informed that I would need to pay £340 to repair it because of a small dent, which apparently voids my two-year warranty. Given my long relationship with Samsung, I can no longer recommend their Flip or Fold phones. I've been a Samsung user since 2013, starting with the Galaxy Note 3. I still own a Galaxy S21 Ultra, Galaxy Note 9, and a Galaxy S24 Plus, along with a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic and Galaxy Buds Live. I had been considering upgrading to the Galaxy Fold 6, but this experience has completely turned me off Samsung. Even though I’ve been satisfied with their products in the past, I now find their two-year warranty untrustworthy. Goodbye, Samsung. I have photos of the damage that voided my warranty.

I got this coming from the Fold 5 (because of a big trade in deal) and find it a much more balanced phone. It actually feels like an upgrade. I do like the Chinese folables more hardware wise (specifically cameras and thin profile), but trust Samsung more if something goes wrong. I got Samsung Care included in my trade in, not sure if the Chinese folds offer the same... Furthermore, I have grown to love the smaller front display, because I have access to the inner screen (I am not lying). The front display has grown just enough for me and find it to be perfect. I have, however, noticed that I open my fold a lot less with this phone. I now force myself to keep my phone open because I have this fear that the crease will increase or screen protector come loose if I keep it folded. So when I am at home or office, I keep my phone open. With the Fold 6 I need to force myself because the small screen is now a perfectly usable screen for me and feels akin to an iPhone mini.

I've had mine a week now, it has its flaws for sure. Battery and camera is a kick in the teeth when you compare to s24. However, the trade off of multitasking, gaming, streaming, its not even comparable to anything else. It really does depend on what you want or importantly how you use your phone. My phone is a work device too and with all the note taking and Excel functions its perfect for me.

I just saw in person at Best buy here in Austin. I actually really liked how it felt in hand. Have not considered or held a fold since the 3. I have a Note 20 ultra, ans the fold 6 was smaller, thinner, and little lighter I believe. I get emails from Samsung because I like buying unlocked and direct from manufacturer. Checked on Samsung, got 650.00 trade in on my note 20Ultra, and 20% on a watch 7...killer deal. Ordered direct. Will be in my hands next Tuesday..and have 15days to try it, before I have to send prepaid return of Note. Think was a great option, and best buy store guy said he could not come close to matching. Gonna try it. Thanks for the great video.❤

Honestly, Imo I think the 200mp sensor is garbage. I have had s23u,s24u,fold 5 and fold 6 as my last 4 phones. The fold 5 and now 6 took better point and shoot photos then either of the ultras. People get so caught up in numbers and social media telling them "this is the best!" I personally will take the 50mp sensor over the 200mp sensor any day. What hurts the folds is no decent telephoto or macro. In a phone this price its inexcusable. As for Chinese phones, I will never buy one after the Huawei incident. You are kidding yourself if you think they were and are the only ones doing it.

It's NOT a 1mm wider screen. It's actually 3mm wider. Still completely unusable for me (tried it in the store and compared with my Fold 4 and the Honor V2 next to it). In the end, I canceled my Fold 6 pre-order and ordered an Honor Magic V3 instead (6.6cm front screen width vs 6cm on the Fold 6). Also the Honor is better in every single hardware spec ex. bigger battery, faster charging, wider screen, thinnest fold ever (9.2mm vs 12.2mm on Fold 6), better cameras, 4000 pwm low eye strain OLEDs, a Pen that works on the outside and inner display, 226 grams vs 239, IR blaster, etc. The software is also getting really good since Magic OS 8, and they keep improving it. I already have most of Samsung's AI gimmicks and barely use any of them. This is coming from someone who has been using the Fold 4 for a year (had to replace the screen but Samsung rejected warranty even though it was due to a well known issue with the brushes, they made me pay $500!! to fix it, after saying it would cost only $330) The Fold 6 is not enough of a jump to warrant the massive price. Goodbye Samsung until you go back to innovating like you used to.

i have one but sending it back as it's just too narrow, the real issue is that this is going to be out of date in a year, Samsung will switch to a wider front screen in the next fold (maybe before with the rumoured fold Ultra) and this profile will looked as a quirky design as the fold market developed. There is a reason that no other companies making folding phones go down this narrow route, they could all make narrow phones, but they don't as they know what the market wants - strange Samsung stuck with this and anyone buying this will have to move to a wider fold at some point anyway as these narrow ones won't exist

I have upgraded from fold 4 to 6. Finally, i dont have to blow the dust every time i open the big screen. It is much cleaner now. Also, I can see so much better under the sun now, which i struggle on fold 4 on max brightness. The sound is so much better, even when connected to bluetooth. Unfortunately, as with all samsung phones, they dont support anything higher than standard aptx codecs. NO adaptive aptx nor the HD version. They seem to promote their own sbc codecs. IF you want high-quality wireless sound, you need either samsung Own Codecs or LDAC. How i wish Samsung would include all codecs since we are spending so much money. It is really unfortunate in Australia there are not many choices available other than to go Samsung. Unless if you import them... which can be a hassle if you are unlucky and need warranty service.

I wonder just how noticeable the middle line, the folding line is while using the phone. because in the video is very glaring and kinda of a reason to not get a foldable one, such as this samsung fold

If you're heading out for the day, and you're not in the middle of a phone review, which phone do you reach for most often? That's probably going to give us a better idea of which phone to get than the individual reviews.

Outer screen is almost 2mm wider. Yes, it’s only 6.3 inches versus 6.2 of the previous… But it’s 1.85mm wider. Which is where the inner screen being 2.7mm wider comes into play.

For me the size is a big plus...live that it feels smaller in my hand and in pocket...easily typing with one hand..and i have a big hand....also Samsung has Dex thats super handy....the software and ecosystem is also a big plus.....yes they need to work on the hinge also it could be thiner like the competiotion...and give it a magsafe magnet in. I dont find myself using the pen that much but it shoud be an option aswell.

Maybe in the US, but in the UK, trade-ins are less than the market value if you sell on eBay, so trade-in deals are moot outside the US.

I sticking with my Fold 5. The 6 is better, but only slightly. I'm guessing the Fold 7 or 8 will be my next upgrade, and in my case the cost is pocket change, but the hassle of migration to a different device has to justify hours of my time.

The fold 6 needed a bigger front screen, bigger battery , the dark corning non reflective glass, s pen outer screen, it was alright but incremental and I might wait until fold 7 or fold 6 slim. The software is excellent but the hardware needs work . I might get the book 4 pro 360 laptop or tab s10 instead. Its true Honor is winning w Huawei, Xiaomi , One Plus and Vivo in hardware. Its strange because the s24 ultra has good hardware. For me I'd rather buy the pro 360 4 laptop since I need a new laptop after my surface book 2 died and even despite wanting a foldable I will wait for fold 6 slim or fold 7 ultra until I get sufficient hardware simultaneously

All 2024 flagship phones have fast performance. That is not an advantage over any other recent phone release. I would also expect year-on-year improvements. As it is passively cooled, as we have seen with most 2024 phones, the headline numbers are only part of the truth, as the Fold6 will throttle fast and perform lower (60% in some tests I have seen) in intensive usage. Not that most of us push that hard, so the uptick in single-core will give it a snappier feel than older Folds but no more than other 2024 phones. Some improvements would obviously make the Fold6 better, from a larger battery to a broader front display, to s-pen silo and front display support, to more RAM options, and more modern cameras. Still, the absolute deal-breaker is the price, close to £2000 for 512GB with case and s-pen. I can't comprehend paying that amount of money for a phone. The trade-in says it will be worth only £550 after a year (i.e. pre-order special trade-in price for Fold5)! So, it is an easy pass. I got the Honor Magic V2 for £1200 on pre-order with a free gift of headphones (retail £350)--no trade-ins needed. I would not in any multiverse believe the Fold6 is worth more, especially as the V2 came with 512GB/16GB, a free case, charger, and insurance. So wait for the cheaper pricing as paying circa £2000 is not recommended unless you have high disposable income.

At least in my country you can get a Galaxy S24 + Galaxy Tab S9 for almost HALF the price of the Fold 6. While I found it interesting, this price kinda defeats the purpose for me. Also I would still want the screens to be a bit wider and to have more battery life.
