Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 5G 512GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
8.0/10
Verdict
The Galaxy Z Fold6 builds upon its predecessor and offers better build quality along with lots of AI features, and scores high on performance, battery life and usability. It doesn't really impress when it comes to aspects like cameras and charging speeds. However, thanks to its software experience, features like DeX and S Pen support and the power of its ecosystem, the Galaxy Z Fold6 appears to be the one to go for if you covet a premium book-style foldable.
Pros
- Improved design & durability
- Lighter weight
- AI & ecosystem features
- Good performance & cameras
Cons
- Crease still visible
- Slow charging
- Pricey
Design and display
+
The Z Fold6 shaves off a few millimetres and grams as compared to the previous model, and while the difference looks marginal on paper, the reduction does impact usability in a significant way… positively of course. When folded, the Fold5 is 13.4mm thick, while the newer model is 12.1mm. The older model tips the scales at 253g, while the new one weighs 239g. Comparing this with Samsung's own Galaxy S24 Ultra which weighs 232g, it becomes clear that the weight has moved closer to that of a regular phone. This, combined with the tweaked design which includes a blockier profile and flat edges, makes the Z Fold6 easier to hold and use over prolonged periods. Samsung is calling it the thinnest and lightest Fold yet, and also the most durable. Worth noting that apart from using Armor Aluminium, Gorilla Glass Victus 2, and a dual rail hinge structure, the Z Fold6 boasts an improved IP rating of IP48 as compared to IPX8 on the predecessor, indicating added resistance to dust, apart from water. The crease on the main screen feels less pronounced as well, though it's still there.

Cameras

Generally speaking, foldables don't offer as much as conventional flagships do in the camera department, and as such, you can't really expect the Z Fold6 to match the Galaxy S24 Ultra in this aspect. That said, why should you compromise on this crucial area just because your choice of form factor is a foldable, especially considering you're spending big bucks? The Galaxy Z Fold6's OIS-laden 50MP f/1.8 main camera comes along with an f/2.4 10MP 3x telephoto (also with OIS), and an f/2.2 12MP ultrawide snapper, and by and large, these snappers offer very good results across different scenarios. The shooting options and modes on offer are pretty much the same as we've seen on Samsung flagships before, though in the Z Fold6's case, you do get a little more flexibility thanks to the foldable form factor. For example, the Fold6 can be propped up on a level surface half open, and used for shooting without the need of a stand or mount. The foldable form factor also lets you use the main cameras for shooting selfies, showing you your live image preview on the cover display when the phone is open. Signature Samsung features like Single Take and AR Zone are all present and correct.

Software and AI
+
Software, AI and ecosystem are aspects where the Galaxy Z Fold6 scores high, making it shine and ultimately help it edge ahead of the competition. Despite the high number of apps that come preloaded, OneUI is still a strong point for Samsung's phones, especially in the case of its flagships that don't cut skimp on any features. While the overall software experience on the Z Fold6 doesn't change significantly as compared to previous flagships, it is one of the strong points when compared to rivals. While I won't get into the specifics of OneUI since we've been seeing and experiencing that on Samsung Galaxy phones for a while now, features like DeX, Secure Folder, and Samsung Cloud are worth mentioning. And things tilt even more in Samsung's favour when its ecosystem is factored in. Apart from Apple, Samsung is one brand that has put increasing emphasis on ecosystem over time, and those who invest in its devices across multiple segments like smartphones, laptops, tablets, audio and wearables stand to benefit. Just as an example, a Z Fold6 user who also owns a Samsung laptop, can use features like app continuity, and the ability to use the same keyboard and mouse to control both devices and even drag and drop files across the two.

Performance and battery
+
With the top-of-the-line Qualcomm SoC, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 at the helm, mated to 12 gigs of RAM, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 delivers butter-smooth performance across the board. Storage options range from 256GB to 512GB, going all the way up to 1TB. Everything from productivity tasks to entertainment and gaming, flies on the device, with nary a stutter getting in the way. The high performance is reflected in the benchmark numbers, though when you compare these with the Vivo X Fold3 Pro, the latter's figures look better in some instances, like the Antutu scores for instance.
