I bought this phone and I didn't drop the device and upon opening the phone I see a colorful small dot on the screen and I honestly don't know where it came from. Also, I love taking pictures and I'm really upset about the camera quality of this phone. It's horrible. I can't get any good pictures. Coming from a Ultra 22, the camera quality was amazing. No problems, I was hoping for the same consistency with this phone. I like the phone don't get me wrong. I just really hate the camera. I'm unsure if I'm going to keep this phone because I need to take pics and I have to go through a lot to get a good Pic out this phone.

My phone doesn't keep power for even 12hrs. When it immediately got to me that was the only time it charged to 100% but all times 80% and that's it.

You can enjoy up to 77 hours of music playback or watch up to 23 hours of video on a single charge, ensuring an impressive experience throughout the day. If your device is still draining quickly or not charging beyond 80% or 85%, there are a few simple solutions to consider. It may be a good idea to check if your USB cable is worn out and to ensure that you are using the correct charger for optimal performance. Check out the link attached for options to help troubleshoot this. Samsung offers a 12-month limited warranty for manufacturer defects.

I finally upgraded from my Z Fold3 to the Samsung Z Fold6 phone, and I couldn't be more excited with the change! I had been waiting for this phone because I wanted to experience the most cutting-edge technology Samsung had to offer, and it was well worth the wait. The Z Fold6 is impressively lighter, and thinner than its predecessor, making it much easier to handle and carry around. Its screen is not only brighter but also more vibrant, offering an unparalleled viewing experience for videos, photos, and apps. The camera truely stands out with its advance features, capturing crisp and stunning photographs that rival professional quality. Overall, the new Z Fold6 has exceeded all my expectations, and I have absolutely no regrets with my purchase, and trilled with my decision to upgrade! Rudy Jasso, EH&S
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this for my wife...she seems to like it a lot, except for the fact that there is no headphone jack and no way to put an SD card in it. Those are features that we really used lot on previous phones.

If you have a fold 4 or 5 keep it. The phone isn't any better than those 2. Id even go as far as to say it's worse. I've had the phone for 3 months and the inside screen is going bad already. The apps are always crashing. And to top it off. To get anything done about it. I have to send them the phone for 5 days without a phone. I work from this phone. So no phone no work. And I have to do a data transfer.. how are you supposed to do that. If they keep your phone and send you a new one. When they come to the same conclusion as they will. It's a BAD PHONE!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
