Z Fold 6 review: the foldable finally for everyone
Lighter, thinner, a real cover screen. Samsung's sixth attempt is the first one I would recommend without caveats.
July 20249 min read
The Z Fold 6 launched July 2024. 239g, 12.1mm thick when folded. After a month of use, it is the first foldable I would recommend without "but..." caveats.
Cover screen 6.3 inch, 22.1:9 aspect ratio. Wide enough to type comfortably. The Fold 5's narrow cover felt like a feature phone.
Inner screen 7.6 inches, 2160 by 1856. The crease is still there, hand to find when scrolling, invisible head-on under most lighting.
Hinge Samsung says 200,000 folds before degradation. I obviously cannot test that. The hinge feels stiffer than the Fold 5's, with a satisfying click closed.
Cameras 50MP main, 10MP 3x telephoto, 12MP ultrawide. Same array as the Fold 5. Fine, not great.
What it lacks The S25 Ultra's 5x telephoto. A vapor chamber. Wireless charging beyond 15W.
Price £1,799. Yes. The market has accepted this.
Should you buy? If you read PDFs, edit spreadsheets, code on your phone, or watch a lot of video on the move: yes. If you do not: no.
