The reason why I give this rating is because the battery of my device doesn't last even a day. I have to charge it twice per day
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Alright, so I’ve been playing around with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 for a while now, and let me tell you—it’s got some awesome stuff going on, but also a few things that make you go, “Eh, really?” Here’s the lowdown.
First Impressions
The design? Slick. Samsung’s made it lighter and slimmer, which is great because these foldable phones can feel bulky. The hinge? Super solid this time around—it actually closes flat! It’s also water-resistant, so no worries about accidental spills, but dust? Not so much. You’ll want to be a little careful there.

It’s also water-resistant, so no worries about accidental spills, but dust? Not so much. You’ll want to be a little careful there.
The Screens
The main screen is this massive 7.6-inch AMOLED beauty, and wow, it’s bright. Like, you can read it outside in the sun with no problem. The little outer screen is good for quick tasks, but typing on it feels cramped. Oh, and that crease in the middle of the big screen? It’s still there. You get used to it, but it’s not going away anytime soon.

Cool Features for Productivity
One thing I love is Flex Mode. You can fold it halfway and use it hands-free—it’s perfect for video calls or binge-watching. And multitasking? A+! Running two apps side-by-side feels so natural. Like, I can scroll through emails while streaming something on the other side. Super handy.

Cameras: Mixed Bag
The cameras are pretty solid for a foldable phone. The 50MP main shooter takes great pics, even in low light, and the ultrawide is perfect for group shots or landscapes. The telephoto lens is decent, but I wish it had more zoom. The under-display selfie camera is kinda meh—it’s cool tech but doesn’t take great pics. Stick to the outer selfie cam for Instagram-worthy shots.

Performance and Storage
This thing flies. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor is a beast, and with 12GB of RAM, it handles everything I throw at it. The 512GB storage I’ve got is plenty, but you can go all the way up to 1TB if you’re feeling fancy.

Battery Life
Battery life is decent—not amazing, but not bad. It’ll last you through a day of regular use, but if you’re on the big screen a lot, you’ll probably need a quick top-up.

Samsung’s AI Features
The AI features are a fun bonus. There’s this Note Assist thing that can transcribe your meetings, and the real-time translator is clutch for traveling. It’s the kind of stuff you didn’t know you needed until you try it.

The Verdict
So, should you get it? If you’re into tech and love being on the cutting edge, the Z Fold 6 is super fun and versatile. The screen is gorgeous, it’s great for multitasking, and the design feels premium. But, it’s pricey, and the durability (especially with dust) isn’t perfect. If you can justify the cost and want a phone that’s also kinda a tablet, go for it. Otherwise, maybe wait for the next version to see if Samsung smooths out some of the wrinkles—literally.

I upgraded from the Samsung Fold 3 to the Samsung Fold 6. There are some noticeable differences. Fold 6. Definitely longer lasting battery. I had it without a case for a few days. Being accustomed to the Samsung Fold 3, it felt do tiny in my Hands. Sleek look however and lighter . If you don't look carefully without a the case, you don't know if it's a folded phone or not. Camera is good . It not the best camera out there but it's a decent upgrade. Very responsive. Didn't had any issues so far. Love it!!

I had an S22 Ultra for a few years before black friday sucked me into buying the Z Fold 6. At first I missed my s22u. I felt 90% of my usage on the fold is with the smaller front display. This made me feel like I shouldn't have upgraded and that im wasting such a fancy display by not using it. I tried mentally making myself unfold it every time I pulled it out of my pocket. That was a struggle.
I'm not sure what caused it but a few weeks in, something snapped and I fell in love. I started realizing I didn't need to force myself to use the bigger display. I have gone back to using the smaller external display 90% of the time with the mentality that I have a tablet in my pocket if I need it. At work, I'm on the smaller display but when I'm on lunch or break and want to read articles, fire up youtube, watch something on Plex, I open this badboy up and enjoy the larger display. I love sitting in bed before crashing and turning my texting machine into a tablet.
The s25u with that wild new processor is almost out and I have zero interest in leaving the fold world. Everywhere I go, I have a 2-in-1 phone/tablet combo and it's a game changer. Looking forward to seeing what the Z Fold 7 will bring as far as shape/size and will likely upgrade folds annually since the technology is growing much more rapidly than the ultra series, making each generation more worthwhile upgrades.
Fold for life!
