I have been a Fold user since the 2nd generation and switched to the Oneplus Open last year. I am now switching back to the Samsung. Why? First and foremost: the Software. Software is King. The experience is just more polished and smooth on the Samsung compared to the Openplus. There are many subtle things, that make the experience on the Samsung just better.. I was also fooled by the screen brightness numbers of the Openplus. When compared in real life, the Fold was as good or even brighter on the outside screen than the Openplus, even though the marketing suggested otherwise. Samsung is generally very conservative with their marketing and just build a really solid product. Also the wider outer display did not convince me after all. If I want to write,I use the inside screen. Outside is meant for checking messages quickly and it is much nicer to hold than the wider Oneplus.

Well done, @Sakitech. I knew you would be among the first tech reviewers to review the Z Fold 6. It is indeed a great phone.

I've waited a couple generations, the slightly wider and square front screen was enough for me to go for it this year.

samsung should have done 8"screen inside of Fold 6.

Saki I want to go check many of the new things that came out so I can see it in person.Looking forward to hearing more about all that came out.Thanks so much for sharing.💯✌️

Will the Z Fold ever have an S PEN SLOT ??!!

What we wanted : 6.7-inch outter display 8.0-inch inner display 16GB ram Galaxy s24 ultra cameras 5000 mha battery A wall charger, a wall charger ... What we got ... a redifined Z Fold 5 .. not impressed.

Sak with the goods😊...thanks always Sir.

"I'm just gonna draw a crappy car"....i dont know why that made me laugh 🤣🤣

There is no mention of spen compatibility with the outer screen and again having the bother of storing the spen in a not included protective case. Regarding the redesigned speaker ports I take it the sound will stay the same as before, unlike other brands that have an upgraded quad speaker system. Same camera tech as last year, so no technical innovation there except for computational algorithms that will trickle down to the fold 5. Watching the Samsung event live, I knew most things were going to stay the same as last years model. They went from telling us about the new screen technology to boasting about how Google Gemini was going to be baked into UI 6.1.1. Lacklustre update offering little but charging us a lot. They should have just replayed last year's event using Gemini to edit in the miniscule set of physical & technical improvements. This would have been a better test of Gemini's AI strengths instead of creating a 3D picture of a doe eyed beauty. This event was a total waste of my time that promised a lot and delivered a whole lot of meh & the only person who will be happy at this will be my bank manager!

I thought they were unveiling later today. Maybe it was yesterday and I missed it?

Samsung needs to get through act together, start talking to the American public of what they want.

Coming from a fold 5 1 TB. I'm using the large s pen currently.

I have the fold 5 I'm gonna skip that but the watch ultra is a beast I need that

Thanks for the information on z fold 6. I will keep my z fold 5. Not worth of an upgrade.

I'll wait for the ultra camera upgrade. Hopefully Fold 7. 😂😂😂

What we are looking forward that a phone can take a shape of tablet

ordered the Crafted Black Exclusive Colour with thr buds 3 pro

I'm I'm coming from the fold five 1 TB. It looks like with all the incentives it's about $700 and some change to upgrade to the fold 6 1 TB. As like everyone out there we've all been chomping at the bit waiting to see what Samsung would do this year. Will my current larger s pen work with the fold 6? That is super important to me.. I'm really torn like a lot of other people out there. Samsung really didn't make a lot of changes. Well they didn't make the changes that everyone was really hoping for like a much wider front screen. Then I'm also hearing that through software updates the fold five and other top of the line Galaxy phones will get most or all of the software changes they said by the end of the year. I was all ready to pull the trigger on Samsung's website, but this is the first year I held off. Then they're teasing us with this fold ultra. But if that doesn't have S-Pen support that's a no-go for me unfortunately. I'm super unhappy with Samsung at the moment. And I am a huge Samsung person. Appliances TVs phones and other stuff. They let me down today

I don't see ground to change my fold for this new. AI to my 5 will come with new upgrade. 😊

Badass phone

Nice

I haven't upgraded since the fold 3

What about if I already pre-ordered and am now just waiting for it to be shipped

That wobble

Would any s pen work? Like the one on note phones or s24 ultras?

I am not seeing the free Samsung Care+ in my cart using your link... ?

Is snapchat and instagram cam optmized or no?

From watching this so far will wait for a actual upgrade from fold 4 inner display looks virtually same we need the foldable upgrade that actually is an upgrade worth upgrading for

7:00 Musk: Cybertruck 2 is gonna be lit 🔥

I'll stick to rhe 5... thanks

Link doesn't work... the free 1 year of samsung care is what I'm after lol

I don’t think Samsung is doing enough when they brought the first foldable phone out and are not a bigger front screen

When is the Samsung Slide coming out? The New Folds are not much newer then older models....I'm interested in the New Samsung Slide!

I'm not trading my s 24 ultra in for this not what I was expecting

Amazing! I love new aspect ratio on cover screen.

my concern is the hinge. I had a Z Fold 3 and inner display stopped working properly after 2 years. It took it to a Samsung repair store and the technician said that the hinge is the problem. He sees many problems on the Fold. The hinge doesn't last that long when you open & close so many times. I miss my Fold 3, and I'm disappointed that the built quality doesn't last long. I'm scare to get another Fold phone in future.

Does the s-pen work on the front screen, or still only on the inside?

1 plus open still rocks

After seeing this, I'm excited to see the pixel pro 9 fold. Hope their not as cheat in trades as good ole sammy.

I'm gonna go with the pixel fold next month. Much bigger cover display and better design. Not gonna keep giving Samsung all my money for the same phone year after year.

is the pen still cannot use on front screen?

Problem. When using your link in the description, the same phone costs more than if I just log into Samsung without your link. 🤔

9:16 got distracted by the wobble

Got my phone ordered but can't order watch. Site crashed a while ago.

S24 Ultra has spoiled me with the anti-glare coating ~ this Fold should have had that on at least the exterior screen.

Is the Fold 6 dual sim?

I ordered the white one. Unrelated: Why do they still measure screens in inches instead of area? The same corner to corner length can yield very different screen size depending on aspect ratio.

2000$ and the Spen still doesn't work on the outside screen, and still isn't dockable within/on the phone itself...Definitely many slight improvements, but not enough for the asking price. Think I'm gonna stick with my ZFold 4 another year, alongside a OnePlus 12, when I crave speed lol.

Doesn't give me the option to choose black or white yet..

Samsung is skimming on serious upgrades to their folds. The Chinese manufacturers like Vivo and Huawei are far ahead hardware wise and huge in design but lack in UI unfortunately. Samsung has become the new Apple releasing same devices. I will stick with my Z fold 5 and wait for all them AI features once 6.1.1 drops for that device. Fold 6 is a waste of money

How can the single screen be bigger but the open screen is the same as the 5 that can't be 😂

I will keep my z fold 4

Im still disappointed that samsung still didn't add a s pen to it and didn't give it a better camera system. I do like the boxy design, and the hinge showing less and the curve edges are gone

Samsung are not as generous in the UK with promotional offers

Hey Sak. Thank You for $100 Exclusive Instant Discount am getting my on 7/24/24 nice. 😎✌🏻

So the S pen doesn't work on the front screen? Still? 😢

why did they get rid of the sd micro card for storage

Such an underwhelming release. Overpriced for what it is. S-pen not even included at this price, they're mocking their customers at this point

Samsung's website is so bait and switch. I hope they know that the feeling the consumer gets when they navigate their website and the 1TB goes from 800 to 1200. Still, I do not think it is worth the upgrade. I have a zfold 4 and a zfold 5, one personal and 1 for business. It is a facelift for the most part TBH.

I'll go back to the golf when they figure out how to stop the inter screen from cracking after a year. I've had 3 and they all cracked

Link isn't working for me :(

can you write in the outside screen with the spen ?

Just traded my s23ultra for this!!!

What about the Z fold 6 ultra?

HOLY SH*T

I have a fold 4 and im due for an upgrade. I just dont see an intelligent reason why with basically no changes. I guess ill sit this one out

Wow

Just pre ordered it With a trade in ( fold 5) It cost 650

👎🥱 Very disappointing indeed. After the Honor Magic V2 hit the market I was really hoping Samsung was going to bring their A-Game with the Fold6 to try to prove their dominance, but I see it's just business as usual, sad to see that. Maybe if the V2 officially came out in the US they would've felt threatened enough to actually innovate. Maybe next year with the Fold7 they'll get off their arse & bring some 🔥& I can finally upgrade my S21 Ultra, or maybe just maybe what I was looking for may show up later this year with the rumored Fold6 Ultra? 🤔🙏

Thats ok... im sticking with zf5

Does the Fold 6 support Spen on the outside display?

I don't like the thick frame when opened

I'll stick to Fold 5 for the time being

Samsung used to be cool

They are falling further and further behind. They use to give us customers everything. See Note 20 Ultra. S-Pen, Head phones, USB C cable, Expandable SD slot, Fast Charger. Now we get nothing. They have even stopped listening. Like we care about AI. Joke. Chinese companies and Apple a killing them.

SPen not in chassis is a let down..have ZFold5 and buying another sPen case extra $100 for ZFold6 is a bummer. Does SPen work now on the cover screen? Not really enough features for me to upgrade to ZFold6 coming from ZFold5 to be honest. AI is meh, feels like a gimmick and this is from someone that uses ChatFPT and CoPilot a lot on my work.

Inside screen you mean 7.6inch?

Gimmicky! I have the Z Fold 5 and I will be downgrading to the A55 when the time comes, these high end phones are not worth the money

It doesnt seem that the deal is working

Looks cool.... But Not worth trading mij fold 3. 🤷🏾‍♂️

So 2k for new colors a square design , same bullshit cameras , minimal with added to the screen. What a joke , i will just stay with my zf5 and might switch to the google fold instead. Samsung will loose customers if they keep on with the way they are going woth the folds

Galaxy z fold 6 aka bugatti of phones

No gorilla armor...ill pass...that glass is too good on my 24 ultra

Still sticking with my xiaomi fold 3, & can't wait for the 4 to come out, bigger thinner and just awesome... Samsung lost me at fold 3 and even now that 6 just looks like a brick

Vivo X3 Fold is better

The extra $100 off goes away when you apply a trade in. Samsung is sneaky.

Ahhh dang only for US

Am sticking with my Fold Four.... No much difference though.

The front screen is still not wide enough, no top-tier camera like the S series, and no pen built in. I'll wait another year 🤷🏻‍♂️

Honor v3, One Plus Open, and Pixel Fold 2 all are better!! I'm sick of Samsung not listening to it's customers!!! I've owned every fold and S series... Why didn't they make the front screen wider in reality... Also another $100 but last year cameras? Where's the price increase besides stealing fron your customers. Moving to Pixel or OPO2

S24 Ultra all day long. These changes are too miniscule to warrant the additional spend. Samsung are rinsing their client base Ai hype is just an excuse to charge more.

я смотрящий это все на 3-м фолде в 2к24-м ) и не понимающий что тут н апгрейднули со времен выхода моей модели )))) только щель убрали и сделали квадратные рамки -_-

I'm thinking on switching back to samsung from Apple

Still can't beat Huawei.

Yeah ima keep my fold5 😒

0:07 can I use this S pen on it?

Nothing is changed

Hate it, the size is absurd, I tried it at Best Buy today. would never buy it. Am going to wait for the Google Pixel fold comes out in August 2024.
