How many major changes does your car model receive year by year? Major changes on a yearly product is unrealistic because you aren’t supposed to upgrade every year. If you waited every 3 or so, you would see and feel a major difference.
As wish as a community we would agree to not buy this phone, due to the minimal changes. I know it won't happen and people are going to always buy the new phone because they have no impulse control. But man if only we could REALLY hurt their bottom line buy not doing a single purchase. Maybe then they would invest more on R&D to give a product that's actually worth the price
Judging by all the comments I have read on various youtube chanels it would seem everyone is dissapointed so hopefully they will get the message. Personally I was VERY excited for this reveal only to be complely dissapointed.
@@Leo23XR my ZF4 screen protector cracked, removed it and worked fine about 6 months until I made sharp dot on the inner screen and eventually phone went dead. I think it went dead from the folding mechanism and power cable snapped, but Samsung did not want to check that and no warranty possible. They asked about 500 to fix. Will move away from Samsung after 12 years and try other brands, like Oppo or smth.
I'm changing to fold6 from my fold5 as I'm changing phones each year to the latest processor as I care for a larger screen which the fold6 had it a bit bigger (personally don't care care about camera and s-pen since I hardly use them), too bad vivo has no intranational model and pixel tensor 4 is still as compare to snapdragon
Idk about this years fold and flip 6. I'll wait for the unpacked event to make my final decision. What I'm truly hoping for is the (if true) fold ultra. If anything, the S25U will definitely be a for sure purchase. Thanks Sal for keeping us informed on the latest news 💯
If they think I am going to buy the same fking Fold for the third straight time they are insane...What a massive disappointment. I am interested in the white version of their watch though.
@@ronervine unless they intentionally leaked bad info about things staying same and then bam July 10 they surprise everyone and make the changes we all want lol
@donniethesportsguy893 Man lol 😆 I thought the same thing ! Fingers crossed 🤞 as that would be awesome. They are up against stronger competition in the foldable market now, so they must know loss of market share is probable with this release.
@ronervine man, I bought a Galaxy watch too and after a year, I am thoroughly disappointed. Laggy software and unreliable step tracking. Floor counts is also out of whack. This means other health tracking features may also be crappy, but I don't exactly have a way to test them. Realizing now that it'd be better to buy something more accurate and reliable like a Garmin (that is if you care about the accuracy of the fitness stuff).
Samsung makes all of the folding screens for every company using them. EVERY foldable sale in the world is a Samsung sale. For their semiconductor company and not the phone division sure, but they definitely don't really care that much. I'll still only buy a foldable that has a pen, so Samsung and honor are the only options
Even with a Fold 3 I'm unimpressed by the fold 6... just the battery not lasting as long as it used to, might be the only reason to get the fold 6 with a good trade-in option
My wife has a flip and it's a disaster! In the middle of the screen the screen damaged because of folding the phone, you will see shattered glas. When she flips the phone it makes now this weird sound like their is sand in it. It's just a mess, never buy a folding phone
Samsung Should Have Redesigned The Camera, they Should Have Put The Same 4 Cameras on the Z Fold 6 From The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, Samsung Also Should Have Made it Ip68 , Samsung Should Have Also Made the Z Folf 6 Bigger Just Like the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, That is Called an Upgrade😎,Samsung😎
I'm actually happy it doesn't have the same screen as the S24 Ultra. The matte thing sounds great on paper, but now you have to get Samsung's matte protector, because if you put a regular screen protector on it, it'll mess up the anti-glare thing.
I think I’m sticking with my z fold 5. I need the 1tb and according to the price, it’s still too high with a trade in. Nope! I won’t be buying the same phone twice, this year. I do want the ultra watch though.
I'm debating if I should trade in my Fold 4. I'm not looking for major changes/improvements every year; however, samsung has been underwhelming lately. I'm really looking at Pixel Fold and even Iphone 16 Pro Max.
@shahreiftaylor1687 I agree. I'm currently paying for it, and I used it a couple of times. It's totally worth it. Let's hope the products are even better than the leaks.
Phones need to be launched once every 2 years. There is almost no upgrade whatsoever. They should take their time and launch alternate years. So one year is for S series, next year for folding phones, next year again for S series, etc
Samsung should either seriously improve a lot of feature and build quality for its fold series OR decrease the price aggresively. No other option to save this series 😅😊
@alphaspartan yeah that's true. 2k for nearly the sane phone as last year is crazy though. Let's see what happens in the unpacked event. Maybe they surprise us. Iv got a fold 3 and was banking on a bigger front screen this year but If not I'm swapping to a honor fold v3 when it's released next year
My Fold 3 battery life is Crap, i had to have it Replaced due to the Battery Swelling up inside the phone causing my Fold 3 to Separate, i want to upgrade but ill just wait until the unpack event to make my decision, thanks Sal.

Wooohooo, the new Samsung fold 5b. 💩...🤷 Really thought they'd have a s24 front screen size and matching camera this time around. Really hate my narrow fold 5 front screen. Pixel anybody?
Which if they have the international version, if don't have, Samsung still wins by support and available in all countries. I rather buy Samsung then buy a non-international Chinese rom version which don't support most countries
I am slightly underwhelmed by the lack of significant innovation in the new phone's design. To remain competitive in the market, it is crucial to keep pace with the advancements introduced by Chinese manufacturers.
Currently using the fold3 didnt upgrade to the fold4 because the differences where small same with the 5 same with the 6... so I'll get a camera upgrade front screen upgrade if i get the Z6 for around 1800 euros? Yeah... thats not interesting at all..
This is like a bad joke, I would have even understood if the Fold 6 would cost 1500 or less so that Samsung could achieve more sales and market share. And a Fold 6 Ultra with a normal front screen, 5000mah battery and S series camera for 2000 then okay, everything done right, but like this it will really flop and i'm so pissed and tired of Samsung
If you are into foldable smartphones, avoid Samsung. There are plenty of other android foldable options. It would be nice to see foldable phones from Apple, but they are a decade behind. It's gonna take a while for them to catch up 😂
Wait for Pixel Fold 2, right around the corner and that's gonna be a BIG upgrade 🔥 Samsung has become Apple, just look at that useless aspect ratio of the outer display.

I live Samsung, but i can't wait to see Samsung go down the foldable market.
They started it but will definitely go down to the bottom
Does anyone know why foldable phones have raised edges (bezel? Not flat) on the inner screen? For protection or limited by technology?

That's it
Well guess i'll wait for the ultra 25 and just pre-order that phone since that already promesses to be way better with its upgrades

the camera is such a dealbreaker. no improvement at all. i'll just get the vivo fold x3 pro. samsung really turned into apple
I think samsung is limiting all its upgrade for the fold slim
This is pathetic by Samsung! I won't be getting this! Looks like the Pixel Fold 2 has become more attractive.
Everything Samsung does lately just screams lazy...
Just needs no crease and perfect underscreen camera. No and no, means wait (2-3... 4 years).
Lmfao 😂. And how is this an upgrade again? Even if Samsung gave it to me for free... I'd send it back!
All the noise despite far better foldables already in the market with far less hype.
I prefer the Z Flip 6 having a non-oled display, to prevent burn in
Hoping the Pixel Fold 2 will have big improvements and app support to over-shine the Fold 6
Oh...so other than a few cosmetic changes and newer chips, it's the same as my current fold 4.
