Agree, I got z fold 3, 3 years ago, and now for me a foldable phone is a must, I can't imagine playing videogames in a small bar format screen anymore, also, when I'm eating outside alone, which happens certainly 4-5 days every week, I like to watch TH-cam, and again watching youtube in a small ugly aspect ratio smartphone screen is a NO GO for me :P
I don’t like the fact that every TH-camr seems to gloss over the s pen and camera situation. For all this money, why doesn’t it have the S24U camera?? Why isn’t the s pen natively in the device? 1800-1900 is crazy to not have the best Samsungs got to offer
This is the first time I've seen the pen holder, not that I look at folding phone reviews much anyways and got to say it's a good idea, but also not the best of ideas as it makes the phone slant when you put it down. I remember the day I had a galaxy note 10 and the pen/stylus was I believe attached to the side of the case? Those ideas from before are better than this and even the phones(be it the note or not) at the stylus fit inside the phone. People who want simple if that's their target shouldn't buy phones like these.
Personally- I don't like the s pen and I don't care at all about having the world's best photo quality. I do like having a huge screen and multitasking ability.
@@devilkazumi578 to be fair Apple is in a different league of its own. You really can’t compare the two. I’m not an Apple fanboy I love Samsung however, on the reason why I got Apple is because of the ecosystem. Everything syncs, iPad, Mac’s, ect even simple things like sending PDFs through messenger. I know friends who have jobs where they required them to have an iPhone at least for a work phone. 60hz doesn’t mean nothing compared to that ecosystem. Samsung is amazing in its own territory!! you just can’t compare the two
I disagree, I thought I would acclimate to the narrow outer display of the Z Fold 5 but it honestly sucks. Insta reels get cut off, comments are awful to read and so is vertical comic strips such as webtoons. They are awful to read. Having a bigger inner display would also be nice reading 2-page manga. So yeah, thinner and a little wider would be appreciated.
@@bigstv15 I would say hold off one more gen and don't get the 7 either, watch the jump from 5 to 8 would be amazing, plus until then samsung gotchu with their updates.
Well, I didn't upgrade to z fold 4 from my z fold 3, as the upgrade was not worth it, neither did with 5, just waiting to see if they improve the problem with plastic peeling off in the main screen, which THEY DID, z fold 4 has less this problem, 5 even less, and probably in 6 will be anecdotic. As you say trade is crazy, I got an offer for 1750€ in my country, and then if I give them my z fold 3, the z fold 6 is going to cost less than 1400€ for me, which for a 3 generation change is, IMHO worth it
To be fair I don't know why anyone would complain about the crease, same with the flip. Mean how else are you meant to make a folding screen that doesn't look like a laptop? 😂. I'm due an upgrade and looking at either the fold 6 or flip 5/6. I watch a lot of TH-cam and movies on phone, laptop and tablet, so for me the fold would be for that purpose above anything else as screen size doesn't matter, but obviously bigger the better 😎
This is misleading. If you are switching because of software updates while owning a fold 4/fold 5, then just wait for the updates. So disappointed with Samsung. So yeah, misleading video for people thinking of switching or upgrading their phones. (Unless you have a super old phone, maybe you can try fold 6. Or fold 5 which will be cheaper soon).
I have a Fold 4 and can't squeeze the trigger on the 6. Not enough improvements IMO to spend another $1k. That's after all the discounts. Camera tech is old, battery is too small, front screen is too narrow. I constantly have typos when using it on a squished keyboard. The weight and thickness lag behind the competition. I'm looking forward to the Pixel Fold 2, Xiomi Mix 4 and the One Plus Open 2. The SW on Sammy devices is pretty nice, but Samsung is collaborating with Google on the AI. I'm pretty sure that will come over to the Pixel Fold 2. Can't wait!
@@renaldofriloux495 That's OK. I'm counting on the Tensor 4 processor to make up for any losses. Not a big deal anyways for me. All the improvements Google will make over Samsung still makes it worth it. If not, I can wait for the Open Fold 2 in January.

@@rkymtnchi503ohhhh. Really? Am on fold 4 now. Im thinking of upgrading to fold 6. But got disappointed as theres no update with camera and battery..honestly i want fold..but thinking of getting 24ultra..now im torn
When you say the other folds have a "much more usable" cover display, you're completely missing the point of the cover display. If I'm using my phone with two hands, it's open. If my phone is not open, it's in one hand. Therefore, a screen narrow enough to easily swipe type on is ideal.
Also the screen was still wider than the classic iphones (1-5) people raved over for nearly 10 years. It only feels tight if your used to large format phones.
That's exactly what I was thinking, not so long ago phones where tiny and people had no problem using those. I don't understand people's reasoning for saying the fold is a bad phone because the front screen is too narrow.@@rexradar9297
Yeah youre switching because Samsung is paying you. Anyone seeing this comment, dont upgrade to fold 6 if you have the 4 or 5. Its only an upgrade for 3. The 4 5 and 6 are literally the same exact phone other than an unnoticable upgrade in chip. Camera, res, etc are all exactly the same.
I am upgrading from the Fold 4 only because Samsung Care+ will no longer be available for my phone in a month. I do not want to risk having it without a warranty. The internal display of my current Fold 4 inexplicably died after 14 months. Also, you will not get such a good trade-in deal for the Fold 4 in a few weeks after the release of the Fold 6. So I had better replace my Fold 4 now and get a good deal for the Fold 6.
My fold 4 stopped showing wifi networks and the cell signals started disappearing for minutes all that happened couple hours before the release of the fold 6. I'm forced to trade it in before it gets worse
Massive thank you SuperSaf as always doing professional and personnel reviews, which i always love to watch. Every one watch this have a lovely day and weekend
You are always the first channel I go to on new releases, always very detailed. But you only ever comment on offers available in the US. Considering how many US channels there are out there, it would great if you could focus on us here in the UK a little more, and show some offers that are available here too.
Great review, many thank! I will be switching from the Fold4. 4:57 the Fold 6 fits nicely into the pocket and into the hand. You can actually use the screen with one hand. Why would you need two huge screens? The smaller one is perfect for quickly checking train connections, taking calls, quick message with one hand. For everything else, there is the large internal screen.
@@matheus_brunellihow? How can you see that 1mm is more usable? You won't even notice it. Trust me, barely any different. If such a small difference then what is the point? Go hard or go home, make it a regular width screen
to me samsung made the best design i mean it ddoesnt have to be so wide i mean why are people just complaining every year that its not so wide like the competitors samsung has ther best sofware and hardware this year is amazing its a bid wder and good in the hands when u hold it i ordered the crafted black and cant wait for it to reach me
Why not a UK affiliate code? Would it still work if i were to go ahead and have it unlocked? So suprised that they're using the same sized battery as whats in my note 10+
I've lost faith on folding screens. I have a Flip 4 and the screens have broken at the fold...for no reason. No fall, no hard usage...just went black and then. The top screen went out. Had to replace it 3x already. S24 Ultra, here I come.
Ive been lucky with my fold 4. I scratched the inner screen while trying to apply a new screen protector and somehow it self healed and the scratches went away. I even dropped it multiple times pretty hard expecting the worst, but so far so good. However I've had coworkers tell me theirs messed up without even dropping it. This is what worries me lol
@TheLastEquinoxJP mine will turn off if not plugged in while using inner screen and won't work at all while unplugged trying to use inner screen. Weirdly the phone works perfect using outer screen but when opened will turn off...
@@sinunknown9929 That's odd I haven't heard of that issue yet. I wonder what could be causing that to malfunction in that way. I definitely do like the foldables but at the same time it kinda sucks feeling like it could break at any point and having to be extra careful. I will say though that I've had an ultra break on me while in my pocket and I'm not sure how, but having two screens somewhat also gives me a peace of mind that I should at least have one working screen.
The concept of a foldable is just so appealing to me. The problem I have is the execution of it. A narrow front screen and a square inner screen that barely provides any additional viewing area for videos and movies. Such a shame.
As a long time Android user and specifically of Samsung phones I still haven't got off the fence for my first foldable device. I just think my S24 Ultra is better in many ways but the Fold 6 is getting closer to what I need in my first foldable phone. I like that they squared off the phone and screen similar to the Note series of phones. I like that the phone opens completely flat on the Fold 6 which also dramatically reduces the crease which is important to me. The cameras are improved although not on the same level as the S24 Ultra so I'd still like to see some upgrades in that department maybe for the Fold 7. My main beef is the tiny battery in the Fold 6 especially considered that their direct competition can somehow fit much larger batteries in even thinner phones which is puzzling. I do like the build quality and software on the Fold 6 vs their competition not to mention the software and security support and close relationship with Google but I expect them to really step up the battery size and charging speed for the Fold 7. I also need the Armour glass on the front screen which helps eliminate reflections and scratches. Getting closer but I guess I'll have to wait until next year to see if I get pushed off the fence, sort of speak.
Really disappointed with this new folder phone there are not improvements with cámara for 2 years ,no improvements with battery and still very thick if we see vivo x fold 3 or Honor magic V3 coming on Friday it looks stunning, Xiaomi xfold4 impressive... So no words.
Let's be real, no camera on a phone is going to surpass a proper camera. The phones just have the bonus of apps with not having to plug in to a computer to upload.
There will be hardly much difference. People shouldn't get too hungry up on cameras unless you are going from low quality to an expensive phone with some fancy camera features. They aren't as impressive as you think.
Bought fold 3 at launch it died after 2 months first glitches in big screen then both screen died i got new one from samsung and same thing heppend but this time i had very small scratches on screen and they denied from never again coming back to folds its cool but no
I upgraded from a ZF5, which I only got back in August '23. I also upgraded my S23U to an S24U. I agree with you. The time to upgrade with Samsung is at launch, when you can be the first kid on your block with the coolest toys because they offer insane deals to ensure a huge launch.
I traded my galaxy fold 4 for the One Plus Open and don't regret it one bit. I think One Plus nailed it for fold phones. Can't wait for their 2cnd gen foldable.
it depends, tbh, how important is for you to have a "tablet-like" screen when you watch youtube or play games?, for me is a MUST HAVE nowadays. If you are into photography maybe s24u can make better photos, but IMHO there's not much difference for the human eye, for non professional photos at least
I had the fold 4 then fold 5 then the s24 ultra. I missed the fold so I bought a used fold 4 because I missed the bigger screen. I can't get rid of my s24 ultra tho because of camera and nice big proper candibar aspect. I am still torn. Thinking on keeping both but there issues now with which phone to pair my watch and my bank accounts (2 step verification) and Google pay, which phone to take when i go out. Sheesh, first world problems lol. If only Samsung would have delivered a proper phone. Lol.
Speaking as someone who has the fold 4 and really really thought about Vivo and OnePlus... The things that stop me from making the jump: really unclear what the warranty is like with those and the risk, and honestly the Samsung software is pretty amazing now especially Dex... There are too many quality of life features. Upgrading to 6
Now that I've seen the Fold in the flesh, I do like it but I still feel Samsung relies too much on AI to sell it's products and as I only used 3-4 of the AI features on the regular I feel the rest are another form of bloatware.
Just ordered mine last night. The trade-in was pretty good so it made sense to get it especially if it helps me with all of the emails and reading that I do.
Let me know if you are going to get it lol..i never had a foldable phone..tempting on getting this one. I have the s24 ultra currently. Scared of the inner display not lasting.
no matter how i look at it , the vivo x fold 3 pro and honor magic v2 are miles ahead of samsung garbage both in terms of innovation , design and camera prowess

I really dislike the reviews on the fold 6 from every main channel this year! We gotta be honest and admit that Samsung did not do anything to improve this device and is basically selling us last year phone with a different chassis.
Better chip, AI software, better screen, better glass quality, 60% bigger vapor chamber - dawg what are you on about? Plenty was upgraded? Especially with the integrated AI. That's really new soft lmao
@@strikerheadshot7215 and how much of that you really use??? the fact we don't get a proper camera in a TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS phone is enough not buy this device. but if you wanna really brag about your AI features by all means do.
@@strikerheadshot7215 come on bro these "AI FEATURES" are dumb to say the least. there is literally nothing too special about them. AND 4400 mah !!!! RIP User Experience.
@@strikerheadshot7215and yet on the hardware side it is still lacking compared to the competition. Plus the AI features are going to the other Samsung devices as well so the fold 5 would get it anyways just look at the s23 and fold/flip 5 getting the same AI features of the s24.
Samsung notes didn't improve that much. The note 10 was probably the best phone I had. They along with apple only do slight changes whether you can notice them or not. It's about keeping things fresh and up to date.
Had a fold 3 and It just started having issues after a real hard drop. No busted screen or led bleeding. But the hinge did give me problems. So I took advantage of a ton of promotions at the end of it all I ended up temping a s24 ultra until my fold 6 comes in and I'll give the ultra to my daughter. all in all gonna get a 3200 credit on 3 phones. Appreciate all the ridiculous promotions Samsung gives its users great company
Thanks Saf! Great video as always! Every time I want to get an opinion about a phone, I come straight to your TH-cam. I have upgraded every year since the fold 3, but not sure I will carry on with upgrades until the main screen starts supporting the spen. Tired of having to open it to be able to write and not just write straight off the pocket like my s24 ultra
They should try to do it themselves and see if they can make it not look like a laptop or pocket pc if they think they can eliminate the fold in the middle.
As long as the inside screen is square, these phones that open won't be any good. nothing is square today, when you watch a video, an Instagram photo, etc. it has Tarja on the side. closed the screen is small when opened it is the size of the s24. I bought the first Galaxy Fold, and to this day it's still pretty much the same crap.
Full transparency, the $100 Samsung pre-order credit only works if your subtotal comes to $800 or more. That bummed me out as I was ordering and when I went to the "checkout" mode, the extra $100 credit was removed each time. That was a bummer, being that I'm a Samsung loyalist since the Note 9. 😞 BTW, I was trading in the Z-Fold 6, doing the T-Mobile contract and received the extra $120/off. I remember when I got the Z-Fold 4, after stackable trade-ins, I only paid $350'ish subtotal. But, I didn't see the opportunity to stack trade-ins on the 5 and neither on the 6.
lol every TH-camr be like I’m switching and still rocking the iPhone behind closed doors. Frauding you all whilst making bank. Let the delusion continue 🚀
Every year, I notice the same pattern: Samsung launches a new phone, and tech influencers immediately criticize it for being too expensive and lagging behind the competition. But within days or weeks, they post follow-up videos praising its improved features, sensible pricing due to inflation, or other reasons, suddenly making the phone seem appealing. 😂😂😂
I was reluctant to buy this phone because of the battery life, but I really like the front screen. Fits well in my hand and is pleasing to my eyes. Despite it being small, watching videos doesn't appear too small.
Like myself many people don't upgrade every year and still using the Fold 3 or other older phones, so literally that's the point of upgrading to the Fold 6
Still trying to decide on doing a jump from the s22ultra to the fold 6. I've wanted to get in on the folding phone thing, but the zfold5 wasn't wowing me.

Would s pen from S22 work on fold 6. Pls let me know im plannin to buy fold6
The issue is that once you go fold you can't go back to a regular phone. I need that big screen
Do you mean you would be spoiled, or that switching to the cover screen closes the app?

Facts😎
Nah I had the z fold 3 and switched to the I phone 15 pro max I miss it a little bit but not even close enough to get the fold 6
I used to tell myself that until I got the S24+. I don't even miss it.
I don’t like the fact that every TH-camr seems to gloss over the s pen and camera situation. For all this money, why doesn’t it have the S24U camera?? Why isn’t the s pen natively in the device? 1800-1900 is crazy to not have the best Samsungs got to offer

Yeah youre switching because Samsung is paying you. Anyone seeing this comment, dont upgrade to fold 6 if you have the 4 or 5. Its only an upgrade for 3. The 4 5 and 6 are literally the same exact phone other than an unnoticable upgrade in chip. Camera, res, etc are all exactly the same.
I am upgrading from the Fold 4 only because Samsung Care+ will no longer be available for my phone in a month. I do not want to risk having it without a warranty. The internal display of my current Fold 4 inexplicably died after 14 months.
Also, you will not get such a good trade-in deal for the Fold 4 in a few weeks after the release of the Fold 6. So I had better replace my Fold 4 now and get a good deal for the Fold 6.
Yup got a fold 5 I'll just order a carbon fiber skin and wait until next year.
My fold 4 stopped showing wifi networks and the cell signals started disappearing for minutes all that happened couple hours before the release of the fold 6. I'm forced to trade it in before it gets worse
@abdulhamza172 obviously if your phone is falling apart then get the 6. This is for people with working good condition 4 or 5.
I have a 3 and don't see a need to upgrade so far... unless this screen dies
In conclusion, The ACTUAL reason he switched to the new Fold is because he has a lot of money.
for the sake of another video, simple
😂
Thanks, saved me the time lol
He’s still on iPhone! Like all of them.
You don't really need "a lot" of money to buy a phone. Or a Porsche.
The narrow front screen is one of my favorite aspects of the fold. Already preordered
Massive thank you SuperSaf as always doing professional and personnel reviews, which i always love to watch.
Every one watch this have a lovely day and weekend
Thank you for the comment
Thank you so much bother, have a lovely Jumuah day and weekend, you and your family
There is no substantial upgrades but either you upgrade now take advantage of the offers or wait until next year and get less for your trade in.
Dude the z fold 5 really hit it out the park. This made me want the 5 more than the 6 lmao
Bullshit . This just a promo... supersaf come on man
You are always the first channel I go to on new releases, always very detailed. But you only ever comment on offers available in the US. Considering how many US channels there are out there, it would great if you could focus on us here in the UK a little more, and show some offers that are available here too.
Great review, many thank! I will be switching from the Fold4. 4:57 the Fold 6 fits nicely into the pocket and into the hand. You can actually use the screen with one hand. Why would you need two huge screens? The smaller one is perfect for quickly checking train connections, taking calls, quick message with one hand. For everything else, there is the large internal screen.
RIP. I thought they would make it like a regular size when closed like their competitors and I would finally switch. Another year's wait...
It actually looks a lot more usable when closed
@@matheus_brunelli compared to what?, srr I just bought my z fold 6, but it will be here in about 4-5 days, so I'm using z fold 3 yet
Same
@@matheus_brunellihow? How can you see that 1mm is more usable? You won't even notice it. Trust me, barely any different. If such a small difference then what is the point? Go hard or go home, make it a regular width screen
@@bradcruise6291 I prefer the thinner screen for one-handed use.
So why did he act like HIS code gave you a discount when samsung is giving that to ANYONE?
I dont think you switched for that 7 years of software update when you switch phones every year or so
Been watching you for 10 years now and we're getting older 😆 all love Saf 😆
All the love to you Super saf from Egypt, My bro just was talking about you, and told me go watch the SuperSaf video of Fold😂
S24 Ultra User
Definitely worth the upgrade from my S9. Looking forward to folding my phone close. Thanks Sammy
I'd prefer Samsung Flip 6 because is more confy bring it in my pocket 😊
No trade-in for S 24 Ultra.
You are switching because you are a TH-camr and you can afford it!
Well... Yeah.
My question is, would you be switching if you had to pay 1900 USD out of pocket?
Probably not, but with the preorder deals and trade in, that’s a different question
@@SuperSaf Did you trade in your fold 5? Or buy another used one to trade?
to me samsung made the best design i mean it ddoesnt have to be so wide i mean why are people just complaining every year that its not so wide like the competitors samsung has ther best sofware and hardware this year is amazing its a bid wder and good in the hands when u hold it i ordered the crafted black and cant wait for it to reach me
most complaints from iphone user
@@Alpz07 lol who said i dont have an iphone my second phone is 15 pro max and i love both
Why not a UK affiliate code? Would it still work if i were to go ahead and have it unlocked? So suprised that they're using the same sized battery as whats in my note 10+
UK has poor trade in deals compared to USA. I'll stick with my s22 ultra
Unfortunately so, wish Samsung UK gave better deals
Been with the goated note 20 ultra since release date. 4 gen later and still hadnt seen anything worth the upgrade. Get my fold 6 nxt wk
I've lost faith on folding screens. I have a Flip 4 and the screens have broken at the fold...for no reason. No fall, no hard usage...just went black and then. The top screen went out. Had to replace it 3x already. S24 Ultra, here I come.
Same with me
I've had every fold and thankfully never experienced this.
Ive been lucky with my fold 4. I scratched the inner screen while trying to apply a new screen protector and somehow it self healed and the scratches went away. I even dropped it multiple times pretty hard expecting the worst, but so far so good. However I've had coworkers tell me theirs messed up without even dropping it. This is what worries me lol
@TheLastEquinoxJP mine will turn off if not plugged in while using inner screen and won't work at all while unplugged trying to use inner screen. Weirdly the phone works perfect using outer screen but when opened will turn off...
@@sinunknown9929 That's odd I haven't heard of that issue yet. I wonder what could be causing that to malfunction in that way. I definitely do like the foldables but at the same time it kinda sucks feeling like it could break at any point and having to be extra careful. I will say though that I've had an ultra break on me while in my pocket and I'm not sure how, but having two screens somewhat also gives me a peace of mind that I should at least have one working screen.
The concept of a foldable is just so appealing to me. The problem I have is the execution of it. A narrow front screen and a square inner screen that barely provides any additional viewing area for videos and movies. Such a shame.
Great content keep it up as always brother
It's the same content for every fold device.....knock it off
As a long time Android user and specifically of Samsung phones I still haven't got off the fence for my first foldable device. I just think my S24 Ultra is better in many ways but the Fold 6 is getting closer to what I need in my first foldable phone. I like that they squared off the phone and screen similar to the Note series of phones. I like that the phone opens completely flat on the Fold 6 which also dramatically reduces the crease which is important to me. The cameras are improved although not on the same level as the S24 Ultra so I'd still like to see some upgrades in that department maybe for the Fold 7. My main beef is the tiny battery in the Fold 6 especially considered that their direct competition can somehow fit much larger batteries in even thinner phones which is puzzling. I do like the build quality and software on the Fold 6 vs their competition not to mention the software and security support and close relationship with Google but I expect them to really step up the battery size and charging speed for the Fold 7. I also need the Armour glass on the front screen which helps eliminate reflections and scratches. Getting closer but I guess I'll have to wait until next year to see if I get pushed off the fence, sort of speak.
Everything you said here is how I feel, thanks for this comment. I'm in the same boat as you!
Really disappointed with this new folder phone there are not improvements with cámara for 2 years ,no improvements with battery and still very thick if we see vivo x fold 3 or Honor magic V3 coming on Friday it looks stunning, Xiaomi xfold4 impressive... So no words.
Let's be real, no camera on a phone is going to surpass a proper camera. The phones just have the bonus of apps with not having to plug in to a computer to upload.
I miss my OnePlus Open. Got nervous after seeing a few failures on Reddit and sold it. Deeply regret it now.
Ouch. I got it despite them and it's still great. I just made sure the cameras had no problems in the beginning just in case.
Would like a fold6 vs s24ultra camera comparison.
It's the same as the z fold 5
There will be hardly much difference. People shouldn't get too hungry up on cameras unless you are going from low quality to an expensive phone with some fancy camera features. They aren't as impressive as you think.
Bought fold 3 at launch it died after 2 months first glitches in big screen then both screen died i got new one from samsung and same thing heppend but this time i had very small scratches on screen and they denied from never again coming back to folds its cool but no
6 years and Samsung has been selling me the same phone. Am I a guinea pig for the company?
😂😂😂.. This had me in stitches
I upgraded from a ZF5, which I only got back in August '23. I also upgraded my S23U to an S24U. I agree with you. The time to upgrade with Samsung is at launch, when you can be the first kid on your block with the coolest toys because they offer insane deals to ensure a huge launch.
S23u us practically the same exact phone as S24u. It's not considered an upgrade.
Switching. Yeah since you got it free from SS. For me, i will stick with my Fold 5 for another 2 years since the different is minor.
I traded my galaxy fold 4 for the One Plus Open and don't regret it one bit. I think One Plus nailed it for fold phones. Can't wait for their 2cnd gen foldable.
Well good for you
had the fold 2, 3, and 4...went to the s23u....kind of want to get back to the fold. or should i go with the s24u??
it depends, tbh, how important is for you to have a "tablet-like" screen when you watch youtube or play games?, for me is a MUST HAVE nowadays.
If you are into photography maybe s24u can make better photos, but IMHO there's not much difference for the human eye, for non professional photos at least
I had the fold 4 then fold 5 then the s24 ultra. I missed the fold so I bought a used fold 4 because I missed the bigger screen. I can't get rid of my s24 ultra tho because of camera and nice big proper candibar aspect. I am still torn. Thinking on keeping both but there issues now with which phone to pair my watch and my bank accounts (2 step verification) and Google pay, which phone to take when i go out. Sheesh, first world problems lol. If only Samsung would have delivered a proper phone. Lol.
Speaking as someone who has the fold 4 and really really thought about Vivo and OnePlus... The things that stop me from making the jump: really unclear what the warranty is like with those and the risk, and honestly the Samsung software is pretty amazing now especially Dex... There are too many quality of life features. Upgrading to 6
Now that I've seen the Fold in the flesh, I do like it but I still feel Samsung relies too much on AI to sell it's products and as I only used 3-4 of the AI features on the regular I feel the rest are another form of bloatware.
And as AI is software, it's undeniable that this will eventually be standard issue software on most phones.
The sad part is a lot of people probably doesn't even use the AI features.
Just ordered mine last night. The trade-in was pretty good so it made sense to get it especially if it helps me with all of the emails and reading that I do.
You know it's sponsored when they say fold 5 had excellent camera
Do you own a fold 5 or do you watch people talk about it online?
@@jollyrancherchick its my secondary device
I think the front screen is fine.. dont see everyones gripe with it tbh.. I've had all the folds and just pre-ordered the 6.. bring on july 24th 🙌🏼
When the crease is gone, I'll consider a Zed Fold.
Look into the one plus open. I hardly see the crease. And I absolutely love the phone.
I think the camera housing is larger prepping for a big upgrade for the 7
I'm still rocking my z fold 4 and tbh it's the best phone I've ever used, probably upgrading until the z fold 8 comes out.
Looks really nice. I love the more squared designed. Looks clean. I'm sticking with my S24U for now though.
Tempting but im always concerned about the screens durability with previous ones falling apart within a year.
Let me know if you are going to get it lol..i never had a foldable phone..tempting on getting this one. I have the s24 ultra currently. Scared of the inner display not lasting.
I have the z fold 5 and love it! I dropped it several times. I even dropped it on the hinge. I accidentally sat on it in my back pocket. No issues.
@andredobbs5390 so should i go for it buddy?? 🤔
Been using an S22 Ultra for a while now. This will be my first foldable. Pre-ordered the 1TB version
Waiting For S25 Ultra ❤
I am happy for you to get this device. Waiting for a full review. Thanks. 😊
no matter how i look at it , the vivo x fold 3 pro and honor magic v2 are miles ahead of samsung garbage both in terms of innovation , design and camera prowess
This is an ignorant statement...on many levels (as it relates to design and innovation).
Totally agree… fold6 not worth the upgrade from the 4 im using and im thinking about the vivo
@@medounelo4417you won’t regret it. The XFold 3 Pro is Amazing. The cameras are great and the extremely fast charging is what I needed 😊
@medounelo4417 I'm actually still using Mt 4 but that trade In is amazing .I'm thinking about upgrading
@@MrFleur0116 just don’t follow any wave. At the end of the day be happy with what u end up with. People have different wants needs and tastes… every opinion is personal to the person giving it. Sometimes we meet people we share tastes and opinions sometimes we meets others. Diversity is the beauty of humanity. What a boring world it would’ve been otherwise… just think about it…
But is the screen glossy -the inside screen. is it anti-glare like the OnePlus Open?
You have drank the Samsung Kool aid. The fold 6 is just little bit better than the fold 5. OnePlus open still rules!
Cap
I think the narrow screen makes so much sense. Its the perfect one handed phone and two handed phone when you want it!
bro please do a camera comparison between z fold 5 and z fold 6...!! most of us are waiting for this
Are they different?
I really dislike the reviews on the fold 6 from every main channel this year!
We gotta be honest and admit that Samsung did not do anything to improve this device and is basically selling us last year phone with a different chassis.
Better chip, AI software, better screen, better glass quality, 60% bigger vapor chamber - dawg what are you on about? Plenty was upgraded? Especially with the integrated AI. That's really new soft lmao
@@strikerheadshot7215 and how much of that you really use???
the fact we don't get a proper camera in a TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS phone is enough not buy this device.
but if you wanna really brag about your AI features by all means do.
@@strikerheadshot7215 come on bro
these "AI FEATURES" are dumb to say the least. there is literally nothing too special about them.
AND 4400 mah !!!! RIP User Experience.
@@strikerheadshot7215and yet on the hardware side it is still lacking compared to the competition. Plus the AI features are going to the other Samsung devices as well so the fold 5 would get it anyways just look at the s23 and fold/flip 5 getting the same AI features of the s24.
Samsung notes didn't improve that much. The note 10 was probably the best phone I had. They along with apple only do slight changes whether you can notice them or not. It's about keeping things fresh and up to date.
Had a fold 3 and It just started having issues after a real hard drop. No busted screen or led bleeding. But the hinge did give me problems. So I took advantage of a ton of promotions at the end of it all I ended up temping a s24 ultra until my fold 6 comes in and I'll give the ultra to my daughter. all in all gonna get a 3200 credit on 3 phones. Appreciate all the ridiculous promotions Samsung gives its users great company
Nice video.
I just uploaded it lol
I got the S22U. My contract ended in February and now im debating whether to stick with it or upgrade to Flip or Fold.
Thanks Saf! Great video as always! Every time I want to get an opinion about a phone, I come straight to your TH-cam. I have upgraded every year since the fold 3, but not sure I will carry on with upgrades until the main screen starts supporting the spen. Tired of having to open it to be able to write and not just write straight off the pocket like my s24 ultra
Thank you! Totally understand, it is annoying
tbh, the people complaining about the crease are the ones with cracked screens. 😅
They should try to do it themselves and see if they can make it not look like a laptop or pocket pc if they think they can eliminate the fold in the middle.
Z Fold 5 and Z Fold 6 have essentially the same aspect ratio. The faster CPU and the minor software upgrade do not worth $600 to upgrade.
Lokked at it in store and it made me say WOW. It feels so polished. Small changes and really add up.
Because they got you a free Samsung phone off course lol.
As long as the inside screen is square, these phones that open won't be any good. nothing is square today, when you watch a video, an Instagram photo, etc. it has Tarja on the side. closed the screen is small when opened it is the size of the s24. I bought the first Galaxy Fold, and to this day it's still pretty much the same crap.
Oh please, you'll be switching because you ha e over 2 million subscribers, full stop.
Wanted to say this thanks
This has encouraged me to take the plunge great review,Saf
What a surprise, a youtuber buying a new phone to get views ...
😎
Full transparency, the $100 Samsung pre-order credit only works if your subtotal comes to $800 or more. That bummed me out as I was ordering and when I went to the "checkout" mode, the extra $100 credit was removed each time. That was a bummer, being that I'm a Samsung loyalist since the Note 9. 😞 BTW, I was trading in the Z-Fold 6, doing the T-Mobile contract and received the extra $120/off. I remember when I got the Z-Fold 4, after stackable trade-ins, I only paid $350'ish subtotal. But, I didn't see the opportunity to stack trade-ins on the 5 and neither on the 6.
People complaining about the front screen size when there's a literal tablet on the inside is funny to me
I like that it's narrow, feels better in pocket
Great review! Interesting incremental updates on this one.
The efficiency, power and build quality of the Fold 6 are excellent!
Definitely a best buy for myself.
I hope they could reduce that crease even more. My ocd self just cant stand something that looks out of place.
lol every TH-camr be like I’m switching and still rocking the iPhone behind closed doors. Frauding you all whilst making bank.
Let the delusion continue 🚀
No UK affiliate link? 😢
Every year, I notice the same pattern: Samsung launches a new phone, and tech influencers immediately criticize it for being too expensive and lagging behind the competition. But within days or weeks, they post follow-up videos praising its improved features, sensible pricing due to inflation, or other reasons, suddenly making the phone seem appealing.
😂😂😂
Safe Thanks for the in-depth review and the honesty.Appreciate all of your hard work.💯✌️
Switching again because paid by Samsung and then you'll switch back to the iPhone when the new iPhone comes out
No he permanently uses his s24 ultra check his s24 ultra review he's using the z fold 6 just for review and he's going using the s24 ultra
I was reluctant to buy this phone because of the battery life, but I really like the front screen. Fits well in my hand and is pleasing to my eyes. Despite it being small, watching videos doesn't appear too small.
Thanks for pronouncing 'Z' correctly 😅
😂 you're welcome
I am intrigued by the Fold. Probably try one next year
literally no point to upgrade
Facts!!
Like myself many people don't upgrade every year and still using the Fold 3 or other older phones, so literally that's the point of upgrading to the Fold 6
Except with the trade in values it literally makes no since not to trade in. Paid 1100 for my s22 ultra. Trade in value is $800.
@@brandongibson7230 Yes Samsung is unmatched with the trade in value, my Fold 3 is $900 for a 3-4 year old phone
it depends what you have.... But the time of updating phones every year is over
Still trying to decide on doing a jump from the s22ultra to the fold 6. I've wanted to get in on the folding phone thing, but the zfold5 wasn't wowing me.
Your switching because you get it free and paid to talk it up
