WHY wasn't THIS the Z Fold 6?

[@BrtoLopz]

No more excuses. The Fold SE should be the Fold 6. OnePlus and Google took the risk, why not Samsung.

[@vooligan9499]

The risk? There was no risk. Google are actually a prime example of that, it was the easy choice, meanwhile Google actually ruined their foldables unique identity by following the crowd when it comes to the form factor. Samsung's fold has a unique look and form factor and they have stuck with it, that is to be commended. I personally prefer the Z Folds slim form factor and hope they don't change it too much.

[@jesuscervantesj82]

@@vooligan9499 really I don't care if they're designed language is unique Google and OnePlus took the risk whether you accept it or not look into the market and stop blindfolding yourself I actually went with Google this year and bought and unlock pixel 9 Pro fold because they took the risk and design something that has a better cover display and I stand to my phone's whether you like it or not affordable should have a regular cover display and not force you to open it all the time unless you really want to put some content and do stuff on the big screen one you're at home and not out and about or it can get damaged so this should have been the Galaxy Z fold 6 now if you don't believe in numbers then that would be your problem but if you look at the sales charts every year Samsung's losing money and market share with foldables and I do commend them their damn software is better than any damn foldable device that exists in the market but if you think about it a foldable like this from Samsung everywhere and their software not even the Chinese competitors will be able to give Samsung a run for their money you may be a fan of the current form factor but do your research there's a lot of Samsung users who are tired of the same design they are offering at the ridiculous high price of having nothing new in the hardware in the same stupid recycled cameras

I'm actually thinking of getting one plus next. I'll skip further Samsung phones. They are becoming apple like.

[@jesuscervantesj82]

@NEILANIL1 Precisely, I agree with your comment if we narrow it down to the United States of America. Most Americans are starting to become like Apple Fans, they are complacent and whether they like what I'm going to say in my comment or not. They enjoy getting bent over by Samsung and suck the money out of their wallets as they are offered the same design language that has become boring and recycled when you have many foldables in the Chinese market that true may not have the Polish software from Samsung but definitely look better and right now the only obvious choice in the United States of America is Google and OnePlus who have the best hardware and learn to take the real risk. Now Google actually listens to what people want Samsung at. This point doesn't seem to care for what people are looking for in a foldable and releasing a special edition this late. It's like backstabbing one of their biggest markets the United States in the back.

[@jesuscervantesj82]

@vooligan9499 the risk? What do you mean by the risk? Because obviously you're part of The Crown that likes to get bend over by Samsung and the money suck that on your wallet. I'm a Samsung user who has been with the company. And my first phone was a flip phone with a keyboard at the age Of 16, which my mother bought me and honestly, at this point, Samsung mayhave the best software in the industry. When it comes to foldables, but have you ever asked yourself? How long is there software going to save them? When you got Chinese companies making foldables that are innovative, then pack flagship style cameras. And bigger batteries and even offer you 50W on wireless charging, something. Samsung refuses to do Google and one plus took the risk Of course, google might have followed on their footsteps, but they actually listened to the critics of their first photo ball from those who actually used the phone and purchased it Samsung. At this point, it seems to not give a d*** Because our head is stuck deep up their a** And since there's not enough competition in the United States, most Samsung users are becoming like apple users, complacent and accept. The stupidities samsung offers them on their foldables

No, if I'm gonna be offered the same design language and I'm going to be treated like an apple fan. I got oneplus and and google, who are making better foldables with better hardware and a special edition should have been the phone released from the beginning, not now

[@jesuscervantesj82]

Well, good for you, if you wanna stick with the same design language, keep giving your money of Samsung with baby. Step upgrades and their phones getting more expensive, and they're hardware with no significant changes. Then that's up to you. But the special edition of the Z Fold 6 Makes more sense even without s. Pen capabilities, because that's the fold. That should have been introduce from the beginning. And in my opinion, Samsung has become boring in their design language. And even though their hardware is unmatched by nobody That's not saving them. In the market, as every year, they sell less foldable, then they have predicted to sell, and that's because they're getting pushed by the chinese market, who's tin foldables, offer flagship style cameras and a cover display that makes more sense, and it's not narrow and uncomfortable to type in

[@NoctisStrife88]

@jesuscervantesj82 ill stick with Samsung until they deliver what I want. I don't care about Chinese market phones. They're customer service and repairs are horrible. And I never get any phone when it comes out. I got my zfold3 for 400usd. The fold se is dumb asf. It's missing functionality. End of story. And just cuz you don't use the pen doesn't mean nobody else does. I could give 2fuks about what you like

[@jesuscervantesj82]

@NoctisStrife88 Look if I triggered your Fanboy status, oh, well, you can do whatever you want buddy. Go ahead and defend Samsung and stick with the company as a fanboy and keep dreaming. They're going to deliver. Whatever you want soon. I started my folding Journey with the Galaxy Z fold 3, and I upgraded to the Galaxy Z fold four and I skip the Galaxy Z Fold 5 to get the Z Fold. 6 and people have been asking sense, the Z Fold4 major changes to the dam foldable, and all they gave us was stupid. Baby step refinements, a 50 megapixel camera. They have recycled ever since, and they haven't even pushed the envelope. Of innovation, when they're the pioneers who set the footprint for innovation and all they're doing is giving the apple treatment. You want to stick with them? Is your problem? But don't come over and attack somebody for giving their honest opinion because go ahead and keep throwing your money at them. As they offer you very little and if you have no understanding why the z fold six special edition exists, then stop criticizing people in the stupid way you criticized me that phone exists because Samsung went from 80%. It's market share in the foldable sector all the way to 50, and look at their software is the best in the business. And yet they only own 50% of the market. Open your eyes, buddy. Their hardware has become so stale and stupid. Steady, we're gonna sit down and dream on that. They're going to deliver something anytime soon. I doubt it the way our stupid market is. In the United States, where we only have 2 others, which is Google and OnePlus, will make foldable. You think Samsung's gonna deliver anytime soon? What you want? This is a g****** sixth generation foldable, and there isn't many changes to last year's. And on pre-order opening, it sold less than a Z Fold 5. So do whatever you want, but there is a lot of people out there. That got tired of the same old stupid device that hasn't offered Innovation In the hardware, and they're just jacking up the prices, not giving a fuck whether you approve what they're doing or not

[@okeyezeilo6187]

The bigger size is nice. The 200mp camera is nice, but seeing as I shoot exclusively between 12mp & 50mp on my S24 ultra, is no big deal. No built-in S-pen was bad enough, but no S-pen at all is a deal breaker.

@5:10 Them putting the 200mp in a folding phone will not hurt sales of the S2x Ultra line-up. Very different target audience and price points. But I hate the Fold SE lost the S-Pen and now has an even smaller battery with increased price (again). Others have been able to make them thinner with bigger batteries, better charing speeds, and still support Pens. And I still would buy the Z Fold 6 over this SE. Samsung went on record saying they do not plan to make less expensive foldables.

[@uncleshermstick]

No one cares about the s pen shut up

[@AdamConnelly15]

Thanks for your detailed discussion about this issue. I love Samsung, all my devices are Samsung devices but i am being REALLY tired of Samsung narrow phones. I presently still use the Samsung Note 8 ( Yes Note 8 - 7 years old), it is 75mm wide and at times i miss buttons on the screen so i have made it my reference width. Anything lower than 75mm width is to narrow. I have decided i would wait for the Oneplus open 2 and i would stay within the Samsung ecosystem with my tablets

[@davesenatus5566]

Honestly, I'm glad it's not the Fold 6

[@ThomMurphy]

The only thing I'd want Samsung to take and make part of the regular Fold from the SE is the better camera. Nothing else is particularly appealing aside from thinner and lighter aspects, but the sacrifices made for that aren't worth it, IMO. Even the SE camera, as is, doesn't make a lot of sense. The telaphoto should offer more zoom, IMO. I'd prefer if Samsung made the cover display S pen capable, instead of removing S pen support entirely. The Fold 6 size and aspect ratios are good for me. If they keep these the same but reduce bezels and hinge size while packing in more battery capacity, I'd be happy. I think eventually we'll have tri-folding devices. Then, a wider cover screen would make sense. 16:9 is still the dominant aspect ratio for most modern video and other content. Wider cover displays on bi-folds mean larger black bars with 16:9, but for tri-fold it could mean the opposite.

[@paulobao_]

Wow...a full 1.5 mm less and a full 3 g less!!! No SPen compatibility is a no go for me, period!

[@TD-AT]

No s-pen compatibility is (or would be if available!) a deal breaker for me. Bigger size is a direction I like for the same reason - more space to draw/write on. Less fussed about the camera upgrade which was already fine (fold 6 provides great record pictures good enough for photogrammetry) and thinness seems to matter more to the reviewers' bubble than to actual users. I'd rather a cheaper and more robust device than them trying to squeeze in improvements that don't offer much value. Was the crease really that big a deal?

I switched to the Fold 5 from the Galaxy S23 Ultra and one of the main arguments for doing so was the greater comfort of use with my relatively small hands. I have rarely used the keyboard for years and I usually dictate most of the text. The screen size in the SE version is dangerously close to the size of the S23/24 Ultra.

[@redstang70]

[@coolcat737]

I totally agree. Gives them the Research & Technical advance time they need with the SG-ZF:6 SE. 🤞 hope it does well... So in 2025 the SG-ZF:7 can be what the majority of US market fans want. It's a win win for us if they improve on the SE version since most of us basically just want two Galaxy S24 Ultra's folded together anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@daimhafizy]

The reason I need flat crease on Fold is because I used SPen for brush function too often. Now they give flat crease but take back SPen. After 7 gen, we still get big compromise. I can't wait when samsung will announce Fold 7 with 4,400 mah battery capacity.

@@daimhafizy ok gotcha thanks for clarifying 👍

[@davesenatus5566]

​@daimhafizy In order for them to make the crease dissappear they use thinner glass in that area.

I completely agree with you though, and I don't think this is a worthy compromise.

Here's the biggest problem whether people agree or don't with my comment narrowing it down to the American markets in the United States. Most people or most Americans have gotten complacent and have become Apple Fans. It's not about adopting the unique and design language Samsung offers in their Hardware is about understanding that Samsung's Hardware has become like apple. Yes, they have the best software integration. But how long is that going to save them when you have Chinese foldables pushing the boundaries of innovation and you also have OnePlus and Google who I consider the best foldables in the United States and Google took a bit or should I say a big risk designing their foldable from scratch? I stick to my point a foldable design to give you a tablet experience when you need it not force you to have it all the time as the cover screen is going to be your daily driver and having a narrow covered display in the same form factor sense the z-fold 3 has no excuse the special edition. Z-fold six should have been released either alongside the regular bolt 6 or should have been the ideal fold. Having S Pen functionality. It's something that really doesn't bother me. I'd rather take what they're offering on the special edition with the 200 megapixels sensor over the same stupid recycled camera, but I stick to my point most Americans have enjoyed getting treated like Apple Fans by Samsung and their design language in the hardware has become boring. I've been a 12-year-old Samsung user who started with their flip phones with keyboards. And right now Samsung has gotten so boring that nothing. They have released in the foldable space has gotten me exciting and that's the reason why I bought a pixel 9 Pro fold unlocked and I have used it as my daily driver because the cover screen makes more sense and my z-fold six is sitting in the Shelf till next year when I see what Samsung offers with the z fold 7 if their design language stays the same, then hello, Google Goodbye Samsung until they get there.

This is z fold 7 next year and u people gonna buy it the company become very lazy very very lazy . Writing from s24 ultra after i left my s23 ultra . Am stupid no difference between them only flat screen

[@Star_Gazing_Coffee_Lover]

I have zero interest in a fold phone.

[@mateoosarogiagbon5502]

Pls do not argue on behalf of Samsung, they are greedy and have become lazy trying to emulate apple. The fold 6 did not sell because the market rejected it seeing what the Chinese OEM can do. Samsung is getting out innovated and they should put their act together. If Samsung does not give us what we want in the fold 7 they will have their selves to blame because it will not sell and they will lose. The Chinese OEM are slowly creeping into the global market and Samsung might go the way of Nokia

This video is a lot of cope and excuses - I get you cant bite the hand that feeds you test units for review but another is being dishonest to your viewers. Should I've known a better Fold was going to be release eventually I would've waited instead since there wasn't much difference between the Fold 6 and the 5 and between the 5 and the 4 - heck even they use same Camera sand batteries for 3 continuous years. The real reason is: Samsung does not have any competitor in the markets outside of China (USA, Europe) so they've got lazy and try to penny pinch at every opportunity. Yeah, evne on a Flagship device like the Fold 6 they still put the most basic S23 cameras on it and leverage on the Snapdragon chip too make magic with the photo algorithms. They could have improved the Fold 6 Camera or battery, they just didn't have the need for. Now that other brands are releasing much better foldables (in China) they feel the need to bring a real contender in those markets. Barring Huawei from the western markets has been one of the worse things that happened to us the buyers.

[@techwithbenefits]

You've just said similar things to me, but more harshly and without much thought and context

[@risd1071]

Genuine qn. Did u really upgrade from a fold 5 to 6 without knowing there's one coming soon? If u're international u won't get this till the fold 7 anw. I had the fold 3 and I decided to upgrade to a used OPO last month instead of the fold 6

[@nexusrealtysolutions]

I completely agree...Hauwei wasn't willing to pay the US Tax like Samsung did back in the day and they got black balled. I still have the Huawei Mate 20X (true phablet back in 2018) and it still holds it weight if Huawei wasn't banned Samsung would be in trouble and would have to match that energy but we the consumers are losing. I'm a life long Android user since Evo days

[@nickevans3190]

It looks like samsung S25 ultra will get the amazing new Snapdragon elite chipset which promises unbelievable improvements apx 40% increase is cpu speeds and 40% power usage and a 4.4ghz clock speeds incredible this will floor the lastest crappy apple A18 Bionic Triptonic uraniumonic sliptoinic chipset 😅😂😂😂😂

[@RomanManjolo]

4.4 that's insane man

[@DavidWong-q5f]

This is literally the dumbest idea from samsung. If you can make an amazing phone for a market that does not have much competition you are not gonna have much risk of failing in those markets. If you are doing it in a competitive market what is going to change a customers mind when chinese foldables are better and WAY WAY WAY CHEAPER. Yes im a lil mad bro typing this comment on my fold 6.

[@forte7991]

Because Samsung are idiots and losing market share. But I prefer my fold 6 with stylus compatibility

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

The FOOLS EDITION not needed !!! Get rid of the FOOLS EDITION...ELIMINATE it from Samsung s line

[@brianmunday8182]

This is SE, not FE...fool

[@_olamilekan]

​@@brianmunday8182it's actually a Fan Edition 😂❤

[@_olamilekan]

It's called Fan Edition 😂like?

[@RomanManjolo]

Get apple then let us live with Samsung

[@brianmunday8182]

@_olamilekan check again. It's special edition,

[@steviecoleman9260]

Expensive as hell no s-pen, and s&$$ cameras? No need to wonder why foldables will never become mainstream just another niche toy, big time PASS for me, but you do you.....also no 1 is asking for a thin phone, for that price it needs bigger battery and ultra camer's, SMDH!

[@warakanda7356]

I now shifted to Honor Magic V3, no more has interest in the previously Galaxy Note version i first used the Note 6 then upgraded to Galaxy Note 10 Plus, then to S22 Ultra then Fold 6. After using it for several months I found that the Fold 6 is still not perfect as its too narrow, thick and short when folded. Fortunately Honor came up with a better foldable phone that had made me shifted to the Magic V3 now I used for one month. I gave a wow impression really amazing with its size like an ordinary phone when folded and when open its a Tablet, moreover its super thin and its S Pen enable. You guys should get the Honor Magic V3 and see the differences with the Galaxy S24 Ultra and the Galaxy Fold 6. Now that Samsung has came up with this Fold 6 SE, but it's too late as most people out there has owned the Fold 6 and mostly they will not upgrade. We'll, its better to go for the Honor Magic V3 instead.
