It's like the mullet. Maybe best phone review line ever! I'm hooked on my Fold 5. I love taking notes on the big display with the stylus. I love multitasking on that big screen. Sure, I don't get a flagship camera, but it takes nice enough pics. It has decent enough battery life. But it has the massive inner screen, and there is no substitute for that. That dwarfs the camera, battery, etc. Not for everyone, but perfect for me.
I just returned mine and went back to the S24 Ultra. I have a Tab S9, and I found myself only using the outer display cause my tablet is my big screen product to enjoy content, do research and do more with. The Z Fold 6 is incredible, but when you don't find yourself unfolding the device, what's the point?
Exactly why I don't buy folds no more. Had the first 4 folds and came to realize that I only use the inner screen when I'm at home. I never used the inner screen outside. Might as well use my iPad pro and get a regular phone that will have a bigger screen than the outer screen of the Folds.
Me exactly! I have the Tab S9+ and got the Z Fold 6. After using it for 2 weeks, I returned the Z Fold 6 and got the S24 Ultra. The front screen size was almost unusable on the Fold 6 on a day to day use. I rarely would open it to even respond to any type of messages. On the wow factor, it is really cool. If I want to use a tablet, I would just grab my Tab S9+. I love the little to no reflection on the screen on S24U while using it outdoors. I got all my money back from T-mobile when I returned the Z Fold 6. I might go back to the Z Fold lineup if they make the front screen close to the size as the S Series lineup, like Google did on their fold phone
I got a fold6 since i have no ipad or tab. I've never really found the need for those since my iphone (at the time) or s24 regular did everything that did. So for someone who doesnt have a tablet, this is just right where you get the phone with dual purpose. It is solid and great
Switching from a S24U to the ZF6. I just want to try something different, I'll keep it for a year and see how I feel after that. I am willing to sacrifice the better camera on the S24U to experience something else.
@nikkosr888 it's not as bad as the reviews make it out to be. Of course it's not as good as the S24U but no phone is! I easily get a day out of it with moderate use. Very happy with it so far. It's a small downgrade in cameras as well but they are still very good. I found that I never used the 100x zoom on the Ultra anyway. The ZF6 is a great device, especially if it's your first foldable.
I own the S24 Ultra and genuinely adore it. I frequently use it to take pictures, and when I share them, many people compliment me on the excellent camera. However, that is not the sole reason for my affection; it is a significant factor. In my opinion, given its $2,000 price tag, the FF6's camera ought to outperform the S24 Ultra's camera by a significant margin. Regrettably, this is not the case. You ought to receive the best of the best for the money you are spending. Additionally, I believe the crease would greatly irritate me!
@jessicagold83 It doesn't i have 24 ultra and fold 6 The real estate with fold is really nice You don't see it 99 per cent of the time like see ing your nose if you look you see
Funny. I've had Fold/Flip combo for 3 generations. Never once thought about going back to a slab. But, I still think it's not smart for most people. There are still lots of QC issues. Went to trade in my Fold 5 for the 6, and a pixel literally died on me the day I was packing the device. Cost $270 to replace, even under warranty. My Flip 5 needed a USBC port. My brother's Flip 5 had a dead pixel within 2 weeks, and they would not replace it. My mother had the insurance on her Flip 5 and also got a dead pixel. They sent her a refurbished phone in a different color. This happened in the first 30 days.
@@jeffreybateman7314 how about the paint coming of and showing the color underneath it. Did any of you experience that, paint scuffs coming off? But more on dark colors
@droo3010 Not that, but overall, lots of issues. Now, on my Flip 5, I have the inside screen border peeling off. I love these phones, but they are high maintenance.
@@jeffreybateman7314 yes you have to baby them. But what colors did you guys have. Why did you not have any paint scuffs coming off. I seen the color shows underneath
@@jeffreybateman7314not in my experience. My wife has had the flip series since 3rd generation. Had to have the inner screen protector replaced once. Covered by Samsung. She doesn't beat phones up, but she doesn't baby it either. I have had the Fold series since the 4th gen and have had nary an issue.
What’s the screen size when watching movies? I know it’s not full screen unless you watch it zoomed out cutting off the sides of the movie. What do you actually get screen size like 6.8 or 6.9?
I have been watching dofferent comparison videos and you really understand why someone would love to change from galaxy s to galaxy fold and cover those important aspects! Thank you!!!!
Bigger battery, faster charging, better screen protection, better IP rating, better camera setup, and comes with an S-pen for $600 less. Sorry, but a bigger screen when you unfold it isn't worth an extra 670 dollars more (if you want an S pen).S24 Ultra all the way.
Ok so I ordered my s24u Sunday and I got it in the mail yesterday. I have now had mine for a full 24 hours and I love it. However I would never be able to spend 1200 plus on it without a large discount. It could be that I got a 570 discount what drop it down to 849, but when back up to 907 with taxs lol. I typically won't pay no more then 900 dollars for my phones, and I am more then happy with my black friday deal from samsung website.
You did not help us decide bro 😅! You liked the Fold 6 better it seems, but then you started to realize that the Ultra had everything! So I’m just as confused as ever! 😢
I just got the Fold 6 and I'm about to ship it back out. The cameras are ok but not as good as the S24 Ultra. The battery isn't as good. It doesn't have fast wireless charging. When watching videos in vertical, the video is to small. When I place it horizontal, then it doesn't fill in the whole screen and it I zoom in, it's cropped off. Ok, I open up the inner screen and now if I go full screen, there's a big gap on the top and bottom of the phone. The aspect ratio isn't good for the fold. I can literally put my S23 Ultra horizontal and its even bigger screen if I place it over the Fold 6. Maybe the Fan Editon is the one that will make the fold like it should have been in the first place. Like you said, at least I gave it a chance. For now I'll look forward to the S25 Ultra and then see what the next Fold Brings. But I know for a fact if it's the same dimensions and no better battery or cameras then I will skip it without a thought or remorse. To each their own, this was just my experience and 2 cents and everyone's is different.
I've said it before, I'll say it again... I'm a huge fan of the next shiny thing... However I really want to want a folding phone but... I don't want one.... Shoot.
I have to tell ya that the z fold 6 pen case is the best case I've ever used. I bought it expecting to return it a week later. I'm definitely keeping it. I am very impressed with the z fold 6. i came from the iphone 14 pro and have been a pixel fold user before. This fold takes the cake.
In india there is only 300$ difference between z fold 6 and the s24 ultra so it's a no brainer to go for the z fold 6 it gives a much bigger display and much more multitaksing facility than the s24 ultra. Btw love from India❤️
Still currently rocking the Fold 3. Not trying to make a disney pixar movie with it so, performance isn't the biggest priority. To be honest, believe it or not... I got a Fold phone for it's redundancy. I'm a truck driver. If I have a regular phone, and it cracks the screen, and I can't use it, it ruins my whole month. With the fold, I can Crack the front screen, and still use the open part of the phone, so my world isn't done for, and I can manage till I make it back home. So far... things have been smooth.
I just upgraded from the fold 4 to the 6 and I love it. I don't care about the camera as much as I used to. I still have my Note 20 ultra that I use for my work phone. I use the cameras on the note.
Both are great phone. But you should buy according to your needs. If you don't have any tablets and would like to have bigger screen, then go for fold. If you want bigger battery, better camera and have tablet devices, then S24U would be ideal.
Sooo, i have comment that leads into a question. Please bare with me while I explain. I'm sorry for the novel, lmao. Now, ive been a Samsung "Note" Ultra guy since the Note 10 Ultra. I never thought I'd use the "S-Pen" before so I stayed away from the "Ultras." But, after getting my first Note 10 Ultra back in the day and tried the S-Pen, i immediately fell in love and never looked back!! Every single phone I've had since then was the "Note Ultra" with the S-Pen. When I heard they were discontinuing the Note series, I was really sad because I knew the "S" series didn't come with these cool S-Pens. Then i found out that you could get an "S" series phone that did come with an S-Pen as long as you got the "S Ultra." It was perfect because I honestly feel that they're the exact same phones anyways. Soo, i didn't have a choice but to switch to the "S" series Ultra for the pen. I use it constantly and absolutely love them! They make using the phone so much easier. But, since ive been using a "Note Ultra/S Ultra" for all these years now, I kinda want to explore another phone series. Sooo, my questions are.. does the Z-Fold 6 S-Pen work like the S23 Ultra S-Pen with all the features and controlling options? Like, the S23 Ultra S-Pen is like a "smart" S-Pen and has a ton of different uses and features. Is the S-Pen with the Fold 6 basically the same? And let's say i have an extra S-Pen for my S23 Ultra. Can I use that S-Pen with the Fold 6? And just to confirm, the Z Fold 6 DOES NOT come with the phone and is an extra accessory that needs purchased if im not able to use the extra S23 Ultra S-Pen with the Z Fold 6?
I own a z fold five had it for close to two years now the only thing that I don't like about the fold series is whatever you're watching a video it has the black lines on the sides when you have it fully open in compared to the 6 there's not really a difference I see so I think my next switch is going to be the s24 ultra❤
There's some points about all of'em that suck when dealing with Samsung directly (or should I say Scamsung). Color schemes that are exclusive to the Samsung website - and only available to unlocked variants. Want black? Tough nuts, Crafted Black for the Fold6 AND Flip6 is a Samsung online exclusive. The 1TB variants are also locked away behind unlocked variants, you can't even get a carrier branded 1TB S24 Ultra. But I think that was a thing since the S22 Ultra days because carriers and retailers didn't want it fearing it would be too expensive...buncha weirdos...
What’s the actual screen size for unfolded Z fold 6 for watching movies? I know it’s going to be blocked off horizontally. Is the true display for movies going to be 6.8
I don't really use my camera. I mostly talk trash, play games, read, and watch videos. I draw, make memes, and read some more. I also watch movies and stream shows on Netflix, HBO, and other platforms. I'm getting it, upgrading from the S22U... so? It's whatever. I spend more on graphics cards every year.
I currently have the Fold 4 and have issue with the screen and the hinge so I am about to get the S24 Ultra I will see how the Flod 6 handles the screen screen issues and consider getting the Fold 7 when it comes out, I have friends who just got the Fold 6
Due to my home's location, my cellular connection is my internet (I have to tether my phone to my computer to get it online), so I do most movie/TV watching on my phone. Consequently, I'll probably be going with the fold 6.
The fold seemed like the perfect phone for me. I rarely talk on the phone, and I don't text a lot. My phone is mostly media only. I switched from the note 10+ (I hated giving up my Aura Blue Best Buy exclusive). I really like the phone, and I don't regret it at all, but I would be lying if I said I didn't entertain the idea of going back to a bar phone. The inside screen aspect ratio was not much different from a bar phone when watching movies and videos with the black bars on it. I miss having the pen inside of the phone and choosing any case I want. I don't care about the cameras too much, but I do want the latest and greatest for my money. The only function of the camera that I want is the ultra zoom. The screen real estate for multitasking is amazing. For that reason, I likely wouldn't switch back. I had planned to upgrade to the Z Fold 6 if the S-pen was Bluetooth, inside the phone, and had a larger external screen (fat-fingering when typing on it is annoying). The weight and size aren't an issue for me, and the physical fingerprint sensor was an underrated upgrade, but I did have a Whitestone glass screen protector on my note. I'll probably upgrade to another fold when the time is right, but I do have an underlying feeling that there's something more I desire from this phone. It could be the minor bugs that aren't worth mentioning, that you don't get with bar phones.
my zfold 2 had a red line from top to bottome at the same place you pointed at woke up the next day and it was gone not sure if it did some pixle refresh or what
If the task is to paint and sketch outside and inside on a phone, but you don't want a permanently large phone, but at the same time you are very concerned about scratching and leaving dents on a folding phone from the pen.. What to do then?
I have also fold 3 and inner screen died yesterday after 3.5 years. I dont know if I can go back to normal phone after 3 years (before that was I note8 user)
Hi, so my question is that in these uncertain and dangerous era of hacking and Privacy concerns, can we afford to rely on a phone where there is no guarantee for monthly security patches and android version upgrades too. My father used Moto edge 20 fusion, using it for more than 4 years now and hardly any updates popped up during this time. Now I am gifting him Samsung S24+ for better security and updates.
We forget to mention the s24 ultra has better resolution. Pros and cons to both. Pick what fits your needs. I went from fold 4 to fold 5 to s24 ultra. I miss my fold sometimes, but I can't give up the better price, battery, resolution, camera, special bluetooth spen, and durability which is why I am keeping my s24 ultra. The tab s9 ultra helps me get over any folding phone.
I got the S22 ultra been looking at the fold6. You said the cameras are pretty much the same? Kinda the only thing i care about, plus ive havent had any of the folds.
I love both designs, but I'd stick with the S24 Ultra, because Fold Phones are way too expensive to get fixed. Of course, an S24 Ultra would be expensive to get fixed, but it's only one screen.
I have fold 4, and i want to go back to s ultra series. One major problem is hinge. I dropped it once and can open the hinge fully. The second reason is productivity. I use the outer screen more on a daily basis, but it is too tiny. But the inner screen js too big to use on a daily basis. The pen is useful but can't be carried without a bulky case. Display is better on ultra series, too. I am going to use this device for at least 6 years because it was too damn pricey. Can i make it to the s30 ultra lol.
Fast forward 3 months on 11/16. Trade-in value for the s24 ultra is $1,200 + $360 off on Samsung's website today... Is it worth it I tried the z-fold four and returned it cuz the front was a little too small That was the only downside otherwise I loved it. Need some advice!!!
A couple years back I used a S22U for work and a Fold 4 for personal. Now its opposite. S24U for personal and Fold 6 for work. Pocket tablet for a sales career is really nice. For personal id rather have the nicer camera for taking family photos. We also go to beach alot and you dont have to worry about a speck of sand getting in the hinge while stowed away in the beach bag. Happened to a fold 4, man was that crunchy sounding 😅
I tried the zfold 3, been wanting to try again but price, durability concerns, and bulk with case really kill it for me. If Samsung copied the surface duo which could have addressed it all I would be estatic. Now all I can hope for is a fatter slab phone with better landscape support.
How I wish the fold 6 has those bluetooth s pen that can slot inside the phone like ultra 24. The bluetooth pen can be used as a handy remote control for the camera. The one come with the case is just a normal s pen.
I just bought a S24 Ultra and i miss my old LG G7 Thinq with the fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone. I can't believe the screen protector on the S24 is blocking the fingerprint. Why is it on the screen anyway instead of the back? Not working therefore useless, even after activating "screen sensitivity" in the parameters.
Im able to upgrade through my phone service. I have a s22 ultra. I dont really take photos, or use the stylus. Im thinking about the fold cause i like the huge screen and i might be inclined to use the spen on the big screen. I think im going for the fold.
I've never traded in a phone before so this is a dumb question I am sure: Do you have to do a data transfer while you're sitting in the store or something?
No. You order your phone, receive it and then you have 2 weeks to post your trade phone to samsung. They will send the box and postage info in a box with the new phone.
7 years of support yes. But the fold most likeky for most won't even last half. 🤣. Don't buy Gimmicks. The chances you have to get repairs within the first year or more times is way too high
NEITHER! The S23FE at $500 is ALL I need for my day-to-day life and serves my needs at a THIRD of the price! Paying ANYTHING more is just unnecessary... I have NO need for Magazine quality photos/videos AND NO need to for 8K video or all the other "frills" that I will NEVER use at THAT price. WHY?
My fold4 inside screen went black but the outside still worked so i checked the fold6 and ultra so I decided to do the fold6. The insurance i feels a gimmick after trying to use it but one only gets the same phone without choice so since theres a warreny for a year on a new one no need for insurance at least its my thought.
Man stick with the 24 Ultra. The Z fold 6 needs to see a decrease in sales so we can see the improvements moving forward. You was right when you said the z fold 5
I had a z fold 6 for a little bit and try the " no regrets " catchy phrase. Then I got tired of the battery life at the end of my work day being 10% and the charging slower. Went back to my s24 ultra and realized why I like it better. I never really worry about the battery and charging. The camera on the z fold 6 didn't really bother me that it wasn't the newest and best
BUY Z FOLD 6 or S24 ULTRA HERE!

If you want bigger battery, better camera and have tablet devices, then S24U would be ideal.
I couldn't decide so got 'em both!
Good call
If you sit down and don’t look at specs, Samsung does have the best user experience I’ve ever had anyways. Apple vs Samsung, tough choice.
Sooo, i have comment that leads into a question. Please bare with me while I explain. I'm sorry for the novel, lmao.
Now, ive been a Samsung "Note" Ultra guy since the Note 10 Ultra. I never thought I'd use the "S-Pen" before so I stayed away from the "Ultras."
But, after getting my first Note 10 Ultra back in the day and tried the S-Pen, i immediately fell in love and never looked back!! Every single phone I've had since then was the "Note Ultra" with the S-Pen.
When I heard they were discontinuing the Note series, I was really sad because I knew the "S" series didn't come with these cool S-Pens.
Then i found out that you could get an "S" series phone that did come with an S-Pen as long as you got the "S Ultra." It was perfect because I honestly feel that they're the exact same phones anyways. Soo, i didn't have a choice but to switch to the "S" series Ultra for the pen. I use it constantly and absolutely love them! They make using the phone so much easier.
But, since ive been using a "Note Ultra/S Ultra" for all these years now, I kinda want to explore another phone series.
Sooo, my questions are.. does the Z-Fold 6 S-Pen work like the S23 Ultra S-Pen with all the features and controlling options? Like, the S23 Ultra S-Pen is like a "smart" S-Pen and has a ton of different uses and features. Is the S-Pen with the Fold 6 basically the same?
And let's say i have an extra S-Pen for my S23 Ultra. Can I use that S-Pen with the Fold 6?
And just to confirm, the Z Fold 6 DOES NOT come with the phone and is an extra accessory that needs purchased if im not able to use the extra S23 Ultra S-Pen with the Z Fold 6?
You're talking directly to me... and thank you for that.
S24 ultra
Does your s24u fold?🤣🤣
I have both as well, brother. I keep gravitating back to my S24 Ultra. Ha
Thanks for the comparison, now I'm more confused. I did enjoy your insight though
I own a z fold five had it for close to two years now the only thing that I don't like about the fold series is whatever you're watching a video it has the black lines on the sides when you have it fully open in compared to the 6 there's not really a difference I see so I think my next switch is going to be the s24 ultra❤
Thanks good info
Just subbed btw
Welcome aboard!
There's some points about all of'em that suck when dealing with Samsung directly (or should I say Scamsung). Color schemes that are exclusive to the Samsung website - and only available to unlocked variants. Want black? Tough nuts, Crafted Black for the Fold6 AND Flip6 is a Samsung online exclusive.
The 1TB variants are also locked away behind unlocked variants, you can't even get a carrier branded 1TB S24 Ultra. But I think that was a thing since the S22 Ultra days because carriers and retailers didn't want it fearing it would be too expensive...buncha weirdos...
What’s the actual screen size for unfolded Z fold 6 for watching movies? I know it’s going to be blocked off horizontally. Is the true display for movies going to be 6.8
I don't really use my camera. I mostly talk trash, play games, read, and watch videos. I draw, make memes, and read some more. I also watch movies and stream shows on Netflix, HBO, and other platforms.
I'm getting it, upgrading from the S22U... so? It's whatever. I spend more on graphics cards every year.
Graphics cards are expensive. Just got a 4080 Super
I'm happy with my s24 ultra
Nothing wrong with that
I say they both go hand in hand when it comes to photography and editing
I owned both, and loved them!
Both good phones
I currently have the Fold 4 and have issue with the screen and the hinge so I am about to get the S24 Ultra I will see how the Flod 6 handles the screen screen issues and consider getting the Fold 7 when it comes out, I have friends who just got the Fold 6
Due to my home's location, my cellular connection is my internet (I have to tether my phone to my computer to get it online), so I do most movie/TV watching on my phone. Consequently, I'll probably be going with the fold 6.
The fold seemed like the perfect phone for me. I rarely talk on the phone, and I don't text a lot. My phone is mostly media only. I switched from the note 10+ (I hated giving up my Aura Blue Best Buy exclusive).
I really like the phone, and I don't regret it at all, but I would be lying if I said I didn't entertain the idea of going back to a bar phone. The inside screen aspect ratio was not much different from a bar phone when watching movies and videos with the black bars on it. I miss having the pen inside of the phone and choosing any case I want. I don't care about the cameras too much, but I do want the latest and greatest for my money. The only function of the camera that I want is the ultra zoom.
The screen real estate for multitasking is amazing. For that reason, I likely wouldn't switch back. I had planned to upgrade to the Z Fold 6 if the S-pen was Bluetooth, inside the phone, and had a larger external screen (fat-fingering when typing on it is annoying). The weight and size aren't an issue for me, and the physical fingerprint sensor was an underrated upgrade, but I did have a Whitestone glass screen protector on my note. I'll probably upgrade to another fold when the time is right, but I do have an underlying feeling that there's something more I desire from this phone. It could be the minor bugs that aren't worth mentioning, that you don't get with bar phones.
my zfold 2 had a red line from top to bottome at the same place you pointed at woke up the next day and it was gone not sure if it did some pixle refresh or what
If the task is to paint and sketch outside and inside on a phone, but you don't want a permanently large phone, but at the same time you are very concerned about scratching and leaving dents on a folding phone from the pen.. What to do then?
I'll just stick with my S24 ultra!
Same here. Ultra is my means of communication...
I'll stick with my pixel 7
Me as well 🙂
Same here, I have a Tab S7 plus for when I want a big screen at home.
Me too...S24U is the best in the world. The fold is a niche phone😊
Great review but I'm sticking with my Galaxy s24 Ultra. But i was curious.
I had a Fold 3 for years, and I don't think I could go back. Just got the fold 6. I still think I want to go back to a regular phone at some point.
I dint think I could go back, but I'm gonna go back
Well, which is it, bucko?
I have also fold 3 and inner screen died yesterday after 3.5 years. I dont know if I can go back to normal phone after 3 years (before that was I note8 user)
Hi, so my question is that in these uncertain and dangerous era of hacking and Privacy concerns, can we afford to rely on a phone where there is no guarantee for monthly security patches and android version upgrades too. My father used Moto edge 20 fusion, using it for more than 4 years now and hardly any updates popped up during this time. Now I am gifting him Samsung S24+ for better security and updates.
We forget to mention the s24 ultra has better resolution. Pros and cons to both. Pick what fits your needs. I went from fold 4 to fold 5 to s24 ultra. I miss my fold sometimes, but I can't give up the better price, battery, resolution, camera, special bluetooth spen, and durability which is why I am keeping my s24 ultra. The tab s9 ultra helps me get over any folding phone.
I got the S22 ultra been looking at the fold6. You said the cameras are pretty much the same? Kinda the only thing i care about, plus ive havent had any of the folds.
I love both designs, but I'd stick with the S24 Ultra, because Fold Phones are way too expensive to get fixed. Of course, an S24 Ultra would be expensive to get fixed, but it's only one screen.
Samsung charges a 5% restocking fee on fold6 return
I have fold 4, and i want to go back to s ultra series. One major problem is hinge. I dropped it once and can open the hinge fully. The second reason is productivity. I use the outer screen more on a daily basis, but it is too tiny. But the inner screen js too big to use on a daily basis.
The pen is useful but can't be carried without a bulky case.
Display is better on ultra series, too.
I am going to use this device for at least 6 years because it was too damn pricey.
Can i make it to the s30 ultra lol.
I wish i had the money to have both 🥺 in only have the s24 ultra
I also have spectrum mobile as my secondary line and have upgrade anytime plan so I’m good
s24 ultra is right for me and I want it
It’s a great phone
Fast forward 3 months on 11/16. Trade-in value for the s24 ultra is $1,200 + $360 off on Samsung's website today... Is it worth it I tried the z-fold four and returned it cuz the front was a little too small That was the only downside otherwise I loved it. Need some advice!!!
Do it! I want to trade my s24 ultra and get the fold 6 for 350 plus tax.
Help me out here. Currently have the s24u, but samsung has an amazing deal online for the fold6. Never owned a foldable phone.
A couple years back I used a S22U for work and a Fold 4 for personal. Now its opposite. S24U for personal and Fold 6 for work. Pocket tablet for a sales career is really nice. For personal id rather have the nicer camera for taking family photos. We also go to beach alot and you dont have to worry about a speck of sand getting in the hinge while stowed away in the beach bag. Happened to a fold 4, man was that crunchy sounding 😅
Good points. Definitely don't take the time to the beach. 😅🫠
My two phones are the S24 Ultra and OnePlus Open.
@@smartphonefan5226 nice combo
i watch alot of youtube videos so only a fold will do for me. and once you have a fold you can't go back!
I tried the zfold 3, been wanting to try again but price, durability concerns, and bulk with case really kill it for me. If Samsung copied the surface duo which could have addressed it all I would be estatic. Now all I can hope for is a fatter slab phone with better landscape support.
My s22 ultra unfortunately broke randomly with a motherboard issue. Might go for fold 6 but a bit undecided due to astrophotography
I’m sure it would take way to long, but briefly fold 6 vs z Motorola fold vs one plus open?
How I wish the fold 6 has those bluetooth s pen that can slot inside the phone like ultra 24. The bluetooth pen can be used as a handy remote control for the camera. The one come with the case is just a normal s pen.
Great video as always. Looking at both myself
I just bought a S24 Ultra and i miss my old LG G7 Thinq with the fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone. I can't believe the screen protector on the S24 is blocking the fingerprint. Why is it on the screen anyway instead of the back? Not working therefore useless, even after activating "screen sensitivity" in the parameters.
Im able to upgrade through my phone service. I have a s22 ultra. I dont really take photos, or use the stylus. Im thinking about the fold cause i like the huge screen and i might be inclined to use the spen on the big screen. I think im going for the fold.
Thanks for this video! I'm still trying to decide which way to go. 🤦♀️
@@susanjudd9325 you’re welcome. Hopefully it helps
Not gonna lie s24 ultra specs are really good. I will say once I got the z fold 4 I can not unsee it lol. The multiple screens got me hooked
@@scaplover it’s a nice feature
reason i didnt get the fold yet is i still dont trust the inner screen yet plus the size on it
Very nice video
I have the s24 ultra love it but trading it in for the fold 6
Did you hear about the battery drain issue with the watch for 7? Rumor is, they are working on a firmware update.
I've never traded in a phone before so this is a dumb question I am sure: Do you have to do a data transfer while you're sitting in the store or something?
No. You order your phone, receive it and then you have 2 weeks to post your trade phone to samsung. They will send the box and postage info in a box with the new phone.
I went from s24 ultra to z fold 6 andddd I'm keeping the fold
7 years of support yes. But the fold most likeky for most won't even last half. 🤣. Don't buy Gimmicks. The chances you have to get repairs within the first year or more times is way too high
Coming from Iphone, Making the big switch, I Loveeeeee My ZF6 , My Only Knock is for 1800 i would love a Better camera.
NEITHER! The S23FE at $500 is ALL I need for my day-to-day life and serves my needs at a THIRD of the price! Paying ANYTHING more is just unnecessary... I have NO need for Magazine quality photos/videos AND NO need to for 8K video or all the other "frills" that I will NEVER use at THAT price. WHY?
You forgot the part where I asked.
Agreed!!
My fold4 inside screen went black but the outside still worked so i checked the fold6 and ultra so I decided to do the fold6. The insurance i feels a gimmick after trying to use it but one only gets the same phone without choice so since theres a warreny for a year on a new one no need for insurance at least its my thought.
No periscope zoom on Fold 6 is a deal breaker for me.
Have both
Man stick with the 24 Ultra. The Z fold 6 needs to see a decrease in sales so we can see the improvements moving forward. You was right when you said the z fold 5
And the battery not good as the ultra
That's a spicy meatbal 😂😂😂
Sure is!
This video helped a lot , been a long time iPhone user and really wanting a new change and always loved the android platform
Trade in right now for the s24 ultra is $1000, for the 1TB version aftsr s24 trade in is $1200 🤙🏽
I had a z fold 6 for a little bit and try the " no regrets " catchy phrase.
Then I got tired of the battery life at the end of my work day being 10% and the charging slower.
Went back to my s24 ultra and realized why I like it better. I never really worry about the battery and charging.
The camera on the z fold 6 didn't really bother me that it wasn't the newest and best
I bought the Fold 6 purely because I had the 5 and I watch movies and play games on it at work 😂
I have Fold 4 and I don't think I can ever go back to "normal" screen size. I've been spoiled 😅
Have had the S24 Ultra since launch. I skipped the Fold 5 for being to brick like. Now, why would I want a Fold 6?
My 22 plus still works perfectly
currently approaching 8th month with my Fold 5. If the durability doesn't hold up for me, Ultra it is (or S24 + Galaxy Tab S9)
Man am on the dilemma rite now thanks for the video
Glad I could help
Waiting for a fold 7
