I enjoyed using the large display and was impressed by the speakers and screen brightness. Unfortunately, the battery life is simply too short. I easily ran through 130% of the battery daily, something which never happened on my previous phone.
At this price point, I can’t recommend this phone for anyone that cares about battery life.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's not to my liking, it's very, very small, the main screen.

The design is sleek and smooth. I bought a case instantly to protect the phone and haven't had any issues. The huge screen makes the phone become a tablet.
I purchased the phone a few weeks ago. I was unsure if I wanted to try the fold again. I had the Fold 5 and did not like it. It felt like I was carrying around a brick and I was terrified that I would drop it or break it. The Fold 6 is thinner and does not feel as bulky. The screens are amazing. I like having the larger screen and have two apps opened at once. It runs great. I have not had any issues. I have not tried the camera yet. I am going on vacation in about a month and I will update my post afterwards.
Love this phone. Best one yet in my opinion. The size is perfect. A lot thinner, lighter and wider than my old Z fold 3 (wider front screen). Love the squared not rounded feeling on the sides which makes it easier to hold. Bought the crafted black and it's real nice, especially with the darker gray sides. Not upset about not having the S-Pen integrated inside. I'm glad they went with the decision of trying to make it lighter and thinner instead of bulking it up to add that S Pen. I do like the S Pen capability but don't use it very often. Runs real smooth and the victus glass is real nice. Has a real nice premium feel and I love the hinge being more hidden. Haven't played around yet too much with the AI capabilities but it's nice to know that it has it. Phone opens real nice and has a nice pop to it and the inner screen it's real nice with the bezels. Hats off to you Samsung, good job. Now just the test of holding up. The weight is perfect and I'm happy with the battery life so far.
I waited to get the fold due to reading that the camera is subpar when compared to my then current S23 ultra. But I have taken some amazing pics with my Z Fold 6! I am in love with my new phone. I may never go back to a non folding phone.
