Samsung presented Galaxy Z Fold 6  - 1

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6, presented at the Paris Unpacked event and with it a special event in Sofia, takes foldable devices to the next level with a lighter and thinner design and a focus on improved user experience. Both the smaller screen (now 22.1:9) and the main foldable display (20.9:18) feature new aspect ratios, with the smaller display also getting a size increase to 6.3 inches.

Although slightly shorter and wider when unfolded than its predecessor, the Fold6 achieves a significant weight reduction of 14 grams, tipping the scales at just 239 grams. This ranks it among the lightest foldables on the market. Samsung also brags about the updated hinge. Durability has also been boosted, with the Fold6 becoming the first foldable phone to receive an IP48 dust resistance rating.

While the main 7.6-inch foldable display and the lid display retain the bright Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel technology with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, there are minimal changes in the camera department. The familiar 50MP main sensor, 10MP telephoto lens with 3x zoom and 12MP ultra-wide lens remain. However, the focus seems to have shifted to the software, namely Galaxy AI.

With Android 14 with Samsung's One UI 6.1.1, Fold6 uses the power of Galaxy AI to introduce innovative features. One such feature is the "Translator" mode, which allows real-time translation of conversations displayed on both screens. Another impressive addition is Sketch to Image, which uses AI to generate artwork from a user's sketches in the Gallery or Notes app.

Battery capacity remains at 4,400 mAh, but Samsung assures users that efficiency improvements will lead to better battery life. The phone supports 25W wired charging, 15W wireless charging and 4.5W reverse wireless charging to keep other devices powered.

Samsung demonstrates a long-term commitment with the promise of 7 generations of Android updates for the Fold6. Storage options range from 256GB to 1TB, all paired with 12GB of RAM and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. Color choices include three standard variants (Silver Shadow, Pink and Navy) with exclusive Crafted Black and White variants , which are offered by Samsung.
