When I upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy Fold4 to the Fold6, I wasn't expecting a significant difference. I had grown accustomed to the Fold4's innovative design, but I wasn’t sure how much of an upgrade the Fold6 would feel. Turns out, the improvements are noticeable in all the right ways, and I was pleasantly surprised by just how much Samsung has refined the experience.
First off, the squared-off edges are a game changer. The Fold6 feels much more comfortable in the hand because of this subtle redesign. It adds a sense of sturdiness, making it easier to grip, especially when using it one-handed in its folded form. The premium feel is enhanced by this design tweak, giving it a sleeker, more modern appearance compared to the more rounded Fold4.
One of the most impressive aspects is how the Fold6 closes completely flush. With the Fold4, there was always that slight gap when folded, which, while not a dealbreaker, did make the device feel less seamless. The Fold6 completely remedies that, and the gapless close adds to the sense of quality, making the phone feel more like a unified piece of hardware.
Another area where the Fold6 excels is in its thinness. Samsung has shaved off just enough millimeters to make a tangible difference, without sacrificing durability or screen quality. It’s noticeably slimmer when folded, which makes it much more pocketable and comfortable to carry around, even in tighter clothing. The thinner design also enhances the overall usability in both folded and unfolded modes, making it more practical for everyday use.
The hinge mechanism also feels smoother, and there's a greater sense of durability. It clicks into place with a more satisfying and secure feel than the Fold4, and the fold itself feels less rigid. Even after extensive use, the Fold6 hinge shows no signs of wear, which was always a slight concern with foldable devices.
The displays themselves are another small jump forward. The inner screen is as vibrant and fluid as ever, but I noticed improved brightness, especially in outdoor settings. The refresh rate seems smoother too, offering a more responsive experience, whether I’m gaming or just scrolling through apps. The outer screen, which on the Fold4 always felt a little cramped, feels more spacious and usable, thanks to the thinner bezels.
Battery life is also worth noting. I wasn’t sure if the thinner design would mean a compromise on battery life, but the Fold6 has held up remarkably well. Even with heavy usage, switching between the inner and outer screens, and multitasking, I’ve been able to comfortably get through a full day without needing to recharge.
Overall, upgrading from the Fold4 to the Fold6 has been a surprisingly big leap. From the squared-off edges to the flush close, the thinner profile, and the improved usability of the displays, Samsung has fine-tuned every aspect of this phone. It’s not just a slight refresh; it feels like a genuinely evolved version of the foldable experience, and I couldn’t be happier with the upgrade.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just upgraded to the Fold 6 from the Fold 5....very glad that I did...Samsung made it easier by making such a handsome trade in allowance. I thoroughly enjoy the 6's updated body styling and bigger front screen...just enough room for my fingers....vivid screens,fast chipset,512 GB storage, exclusive color...Samsung does it right!!!. Very happy...

Ok device. I didnt want to buy it but my Fold 5 inner screen split from normal use. It was 13 months after i purchased it so the general warranty was expired. So to salvage something i traded in the cracked phone for this model. The upgrades are so minor its disappointing. Its a lesson lewrned and i will hope this one makes it for a few years until something exiting comes along.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Response from Samsung USBy Social Commerce, October 14, 2024
Howdy Theron,
Thanks for taking the available time to share your thoughts with us about your Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6. We appreciate your critiques as we strive to innovate and improve on our product design and functionality. Our goal is for our customers to feel like they are having the most ideal experiences while using our products. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on our products for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, linked below. We also offer Samsung Care+ that can be added to eligible devices. Samsung Care+ is good for those unexpected situations we may find ourselves in, like forgetting your phone in the seat of your Uber on your way to catch your flight, or having your device stolen from your bag, taking a dip in the pool with your phone in hand, to dropping your phone and shattering your screen while bringing in the groceries. We even have over 700 authorized repair locations nationwide to take your devices to be repaired so you can get back quickly to what you enjoy doing most in life. Talk about peace of mind! Here's how the Z Fold6 differs from its predecessor: at 239 grams, the Galaxy Z Fold6 is lighter and slimmer than the Galaxy Z Fold5, making it more pocketable. An upgraded processor elevates the Fold6's performance across the board with CPU performance improved by 17%, GPU by 20% and NPU by 42% compared to Galaxy Z Fold5. In terms of battery life, a single charge lasts longer on the Z Fold6 than the Z Fold5. Though the Z Fold6 features the same 4400mAh battery as Z Fold5, an advanced processor allows for more efficient power usage, so you can listen up to 77 hours of music or watch up to 23 hours of video. Your Galaxy Z Fold6 features the durable dual rail FlexHinge and carries a IP48 rating for water resistance. Its front and back glass are applied with the latest Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 material and metal frame with Armor Aluminum. You also have the ultimate innovation and peace-of-mind with Galaxy Z Assurance. The Z Fold6 has been tested for and verified for at least 200,000 folds or 10 years of approximate use. You can feel confident with every fold of your device! If needed, you can get a pre-installed screen protector with a free one-time replacement. Plus, get a one- time discounted screen replacement with Galaxy Z Assurance. If you would like to share additional feedback with us regarding your recent purchase or if you would like any further assistance, please feel free to contact Samsung Support at your leisure. Thank you for being a valued Samsung customer.
