Look, if you have the 5, you may not need to upgrade. I did, but I have the means to right now. I can tell you this, it was worth it for me. These Fold devices get better in so many little ways every single year. The 6 is the best one so far.
I really love the form factor. It's slimmer. The screen feels bigger and better. The outside screen is more normal phone sized and is lovely as well. It's just better feeling in the hand overall. Doesn't feel fragile any more.
The AI stuff is incredible. I had no idea. I've only really dabbled in the photo aspects of it, but it's flawless. I love it.
Again, if you have one older than the 5 or you've never had one...go for it. You will not be sorry.
Love the quality of the device but I have noticed the sound and screen quality are a little inferior to my previous Z Fold3 5G. I know the Z Fold 6 has a better battery and maybe even more processing but small or not these are losses. Regardless, though people might find use for AI, I do not as of yet. This does not mean I do not like the device. It's design is sleek and slimmer, which is good. Either way I'm keeping it
I really like this phone! Transitioning from the heavier Z Fold 5 was very easy, and I'm getting a great deal on the trade-in. The software to switch from the old phone was especially good. I like foldables because I do a lot of reading and a foldable means I don't have to carry a tablet or an e-reader (color is necessary for the art history books I read). So, I have a great phone and a nice tablet all in one. I will never go back to a regular phone. Highest recommendation!
The main reason i switched from ZFlip 5 was because of the redesigned ZFold. The square corners were the initial aspect i noticed that made me excited to get it . After having it a week, I can say that when folded, the "narrow" front screen is overwhelming better than the "standard size" width. It just works for me and the way I use the phone. I genuinely love this form factor and have stated numerous times I wont go back to a regular sized phone.
Almost the same features zfold 5..with me I don't like it
