This is my 3rd Z flip phone, I just ❤️ them for their versatility including the unique small fit. This new model feels sturdier when opening /closing little thinner which is important to me. The middle fold seems flatter then previous models. And other cool features I'm still trying to learn.
I've only had my Z Flip6 for a couple of weeks, but I've had a Z Flip5 for a little over a year now, and I love this phone. The 6 has a faster processor, better camera, and bigger battery in addition to better dust protection and Gorilla glass, so I decided to trade in my 5 for this improved model. Switching over was a breeze with the Smart Switch software, so I was up and running within no time after charging my new phone and moving my old SIM over.
As I said above, I love this phone. Instead of the huge form factor of the newer, non-foldable phones, the Z Flip fits comfortably in my hand and pocket. This is important to me, since I go for long walks and need to have my phone with me in case of misadventure. I can drop in in the pocket of my shorts or pants and forget about it. It's light-weight and completely reliable.
I recently spent two weeks in South Korea and completely relied on my Z Flip5 for mapping, transportation, camera, and video functions--just about everything. While that phone has a great battery life, I wanted an even bigger battery for future travel, and since it's my primary camera these days, the improved camera was an important feature for me. Whichever phone works for you, you'll love the Z Flip. You may even get my old 5, since I traded it in to Samsung (in perfect condition, BTW).
Highly recommend the Z Flip6. It's my favorite phone, ever.
Easy to order and great updates from Samsung throughout the process. Easy to return my original phone. Very painless process. So far, I'm loving my Flip 6. 512gb is awesome! Feels like the battery lasts a lot longer than my Flip 3. Performance has been great - awesome phone!
