@Ravaun1 Yes it is, from the perspective of a daily driver of a Fold 4, you can't help noticing the imrovoement to the overall in hand feel of the fold 6. CJ makes a great point with the observation that this model is a perfection of the previous folds, it truly is. Where CJ is off, this is not a perfection of this form factor. This is a perfection of the hinge, overall thinness, and hopefully the durability of the foldable display. These improvements will apply to all foldable designs Samsung makes in the future.
Im coming from the s22 Ultra and i actually like the front display. I dont need a full size screen on the outside and i have no issued typing. It's been an amazing upgrade. The pixel 9 fold looks just to large and the hinge side beze is just atrocious
@CJKnowsTECH yep just in time as my main screen died on me the day I received the Fold6. Looking forward to adding my new SUP case to the Fold6, although having no case for a few days is pretty incredible in terms of feeling the form factor of that flat fold vs years past with the sloping gap.
You say innovation? But does that stop iPhone sales? No! You have to admit, when you hold the ZF5 versus the ZF6, you can definitely tell the difference. Major? No! But there is a huge difference compared to the ZF4 versus the ZF5. The hinge is the best they have ever made; it's snappy and quiet. As for the crease, it's significantly better. The only thing I agree with is that they could have installed a bigger battery.
Same situation with my history with the ZFold. Refined, yes..but lacking in listening to the needs of users. I come back for the software and ecosystem experience.
Samsung is just laying back on the software and ecosystem, but other brands are coming with better offerings...OnePlus..now the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Has me looking into other brands..at the same time buying the Fold 6, Watch Ultra, and Watch 7 🤣
Samsung lightens the skin on purpose for the south korean users. In Asia being pale is very desirable. Would be nice if they could let everyone choose it as an option.
Use mine for my Masters program and I only use it and dex mode. My undergraduate was done on an iPhone, iPad and mac. Carrying one device for them all including my hobbies trading, photos and video editing.
I just got the pixel 8 pro xl about 2 months ago. I'm going with the next pixel fold after 9. Simply because of the skin tone feature. I am a person of color and I love the fact that Google handles that in their camera software.
Im pretty sure Samsung is taking measures to ensure the Z Fold doesn't cannibalize the sales of the Galaxy S Ultra lineup much like the Galaxy S Ultra lineup did to the Note series.
I'm sorry but this comment makes zero sense, Samsung is a business their objective is to sell things at the highest prices they can get they would love if they're folds where they're TOP OF THE LINE selling #1 think about it.
@katinasoutherland7693 It does make sense. If they build a Z Fold with a larger Display, a Built in S Pen, a battery the size of the Ultra, and the cameras from the Ultra. There will be less reason for people to buy the Ultra. It's the same thing that happened with the Note. It just got turned into the Galaxy S Ultra.
@katinasoutherland7693 This comment is 100% accurate. Samsung has really become Apple where they know that their Users won't leave since they are one of the biggest phone producers in the world. Both Samsung and Apple are slowing their innovation so they won't have to compete with themselves. Both companies do not compare to anything that's in China or with Oneplus. They have really fallen behind on charging speeds, camera processing, battery life, and quality of their screens and of course price!
@slicknick29 Facts, bro. I never thought about it but the S series Ultra killed the Note because they were essentially the same phone. I don't think Samsung will make that mistake again
Moved from a Note 20 Ultra. Honestly, I am enjoying the form factor of the Z Fold 6. I actually like the outer screen size. I am frequently using it for texting back and forth and for less in depth email responses. I did have to slightly adjust the size of the keyboard since my case interfered with the keys furthest to the left slightly. Now I have them adjusted perfectly for me and my one handed use. I think the battery thing is a case of each person's experience and use case. I am not huge on mobile gaming, and I moved over from a 4 year old phone, so the battery is doing great for me. With my use, I can take the ZF6 off the charger around 7 AM and be sitting in the range of 60% at 9 PM (sometimes closer to 50, sometimes closer to 70). With my Note, I would be lucky to be at 30% in that same window. Had I been coming from a S23 Ultra, S24 Ultra, or Z Fold 5 I am sure I would not be impressed. As for the camera, I have now had a few weeks with it and come to the conclusion that it is, in fact limited. I am definitely not a professional photographer and think in many scenarios it can hold it's own, but the thing is that it is moreso a competitor if you aren't starting to get too deep in the zoomed shots. So far, I don't think it takes it's best shots when you get too far beyond it's native 3x zoom. It seems it can get with anybody at 3x or lower. I don't know how much they can do with a software update but I am curious. Overall, buying this phone really requires someone to choose what they prioritize in the experience. As noted about the camera, there are areas that I don't think it's the top option or even in the top 5, but as a total package, I think it might be the best phone overall that I have ever owned. Maybe my opinion changes in a few months, but right now that is where I am at.
@@feliperuiz3906 Ich bin absolut begeistert von der Kamera des Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6! Die Bildqualität ist gestochen scharf und die Farben sind unglaublich lebendig. Mit den vielseitigen Funktionen gelingen mir sowohl beeindruckende Landschaftsaufnahmen als auch detailreiche Nahaufnahmen. Die Kamera des Z Fold6 übertrifft meine Erwartungen in jeder Hinsicht. Ich kann es kaum erwarten, noch mehr einzigartige Momente mit diesem großartigen Smartphone festzuhalten. Ps: mit der Ai generiert 🤣
First foldable and I'm on board.. huge improvement in my life... I wish the camera was better though .Otherwise super premium feeling and I like the thin display because I'm one handed swipe texter...
I feel that other than the screen real estate inside the phone, its hard to justify upgrading from a s23 ultra... Albeit build quality looks superb for the fold 6
Im happy with the zf6. Its fine. Wont be getting another zf until get 45w charging, spen front display, wifi7/qi2 and most importantly a flagship camera.
Great take! I've got the 5, not enough there to tempt me. I need more dust resistance, less crease, flagship cameras and wider outer display. But even without those, Folds are incredible phones and have a great ecosystem.
Wow loved your video! Thank you so much for pointing out the skin tone issue with the cameras! My husband who I love like crazy just got me the Galaxy Fold 6 so I'm watching your review to prepare me for my first experience with the Fold 6 coming from only having the very first Samsung Fold. But back to the cameras, I'm currently using an iphone-only by force from my husband trying to get me on the apple team lol but it will never happen lol. Anyway while using the iphone, I knew something was off with my skin tone and family's skin tones being captured by the camera, but I literally thought it was the way I was taking our pics. So I would always have to go back to the pic and edit it to get my true skin tone or family's member's skin tones to shine through . But after your review, I finally learned that it wasn't me but the phone cameras. I would love to just take a pic with a google camera just to see my true brown skin come through without editing the pic since you said Google gets that issue right. So yeah that is not cool that Samsung and other companies drop the ball in that area. Thanks for your honest review, you're awesome!
Have you ever checked out the performance mode? I changed mine to light and the battery has completely changed for me. Have you ever used it, CJ? Great video man!
I’m moving from a 15 pro and I’m a little bit nervous, but I think it will be for the better. I wanted to upgrade to the fold 2 but I thought it was way to thin, so I waited and waited until the perfect time, and I think this is the time
Glad you're keeping it real CJ, and yeah now that Google have release the upcoming Pixel 9 Pro Fold which is fire, hope that would finally be a wake up call for Samsung.
I just got my Z fold today and I love it APART from the aspect ratio and especially since social media is my main use its kinda annoying since I come from a s21 ultra and realising that I have this huge screen and majority of apps don't even take advantage of that or the apps are way too zoomed in like tiktok for example
I actually think charging speed is fine atleast it was on the Fold 5. I was using a 30w charging cable I got off Amazon, and my phone charged up quick ASF. However, I definitely can't say the same for wireless charging.
Zfold 3 my favorite phone of all time easily... now i have to turn it in for the 6 tomorrow and im sad cuz i don't need anything better... Im also excited
First case was the useless samung case for 100 dollars..got a s pen from it i guess. Second was the tongate mech. Great coverage but bulky and plastic. Uncomfortable to hold. Finally, I found my go-to. The Spigen tough armor pro. It's grippy, has s pen storage, and not bulky! Try it out folks
I have the pixel fold now and I absolutely love this device. The wider dimensions is what makes it great. I pre-ordered the 9 fold. Hopefully it's just as good.
He's not overly critical like other reviewers, which nowadays just criticize everything about a device. I rather have this honest opinion about someone who enjoys the device but wishes for it to be better in some areas
This is my first foldable phone and I'm really loving it, the big screen is awesome for multitasking and media consumption. I was worried about the crease but after using it for 48 hours I don't pay attention to it anymore. It is a very snappy phone and the cameras are pretty decent.
I had issues with the pixel, got replaced 3 separate times in a matter of 5 months so I have completely fallen off of Google phones even the folding one
Came across your videos about a year or two ago & became my “ go to” when I want some info about the latest phones. Great video!.. Far as the a fold 6 I had the 5 and the s24u but ended up with my 15 pro in pocket everyday… I phone just like that bro 🤷🏻♂️
I was not going to update the phone this year only the watch and headphones made a last-minute decision change just ordered the 6 coming from the five I'm pretty happy I got it for $650 so really can't complain was debating on returning it however I think I'm going to keep it
@@elsizzle2000 Samsung's fall sale through the app. It looks like current best deal on the app is ~$1232 for navy 512gb with no trade which I would say is still worth
Totally understand where you are coming from. Two things you might want to consider. First, the Z Fold is really for "power users". It excels for those who want a real computer in the palm of their hand. If someone only uses their mobile device for phone calls, texts and some social media messaging, they don't need and shouldn't waste their money on the Z Fold. Second, Samsung really treats its Fold owners well. Once you buy one, they give you huge discounts on upgrading. This means that for about $650 every second year you can have a new model. The trade in value given on these Folds is ridiculously high.
This could be total BS… but my understanding is that the Fold6’s crease is because of the hinge they need to use to maintain IP48 water resistance. Phone’s like the OnePlus open have a lesser crease but also don’t protect against water like the Fold6 does.
People complaining about the crease need to fold a tshirt in half and recognise thst its completely unavoidable. The fact that they created an inner screen that can fold with a barely visible crease is phenomenal. To me it is something that I actually enjoy, its a feature, not a bug. 😅
I think samsung will surprise people with the battery upgrades.theyre going to come out with something special next year. Even if you look at the s24 its on the thick side. They have to be developing their own new battery tech to create more space without making it thicker or bigger
Upgrading from a 14 PM to this mainly for gaming via GeForce now and a controller plus it’s the only one that’ll support an S Pen, which I think all of them should. I get that the new pixel fold is larger but that tensor G4 turns me off. That SD gen 3 is still pretty beefy and much faster than the Tensor
Great video -thank you. I went from Ultra 22 to Fold6 due to getting a lot for my old phone. I always stick with Samsung so getting this one made sense. My skin is darker than you and agree with the picture quality. However I am really enjoying the size and feel of the Fold so far. The experience has been great so far but agree with all the comments you are making. However I figure when the new one comes out with improvements - I will upgrade as Samsung always gives you a ton of money for a trade in. Keep the good videos coming...Thanks
$600 for the trade in it's a fantastic phone, and if you update every year, 600 a year is pretty cool. Cheap for what this amazing phone gives you in the Palm of your hand the most excellent video play back experience, the AI features unmatched, the pin unmatched, screen unmatched, and the software. Just outstanding, I love the z full six.. the pin on the outside of the case is just fine. I don't need it on the inside the battery lasts all day long..
Thank you for reviewing it based on it's merits, rather than rating Samsung on their upgrade efforts from the previous year. So many reviewers get caught in this trap. They review the company and their innovation rather than just the device in question. "Yeah this device is cutting edge technology, the best on the market, buuuuuuuuut they didn't give me enough new features from last year. It doesn't feel as good as I think it should feel, and they just didn't innovate enough for my feelings, based on an arbitrary measurement of 365 days, so I'm only giving it a 6/10." Hate those kinds of reviews.
My ultra 22 got a mb issue so i have to get a new phone. Very undecided between s24 ultra and z fold 6. What do you guys reckon? I'm not a multi task kinda guy btw. But fold just felt a different experience I'd like to have one day
I have a fold6 since launch, I previously had an iPhone pro max. I am happy with the change. Good phone, maybe if I can buy a pixel fold in my country, I may be wondering but since I can't buy a Pixel, Samsung is an obvious choice.
I came from s21 ultra I wanted a fold since they first came out im glad I waited and got the fold 6 I got 800 off with trade in and free storage upgrade and free galaxy tab s9 fe
Said it before and I'll say it again: They shouldn't get rid of the design they have now, but they DO need to bring us an ULTRA Fold to go along with the design we have now. Ultra should have bigger battery, BEST cameras, taller AND wider front display for an 8" inner display, and the price tag we have now. The base fold needs a price reduction. Spen support on the cover display and an s Pen silo is a MUST for both or they will kill the design I love the fold FOR.
I've had my fold 3 since it came out and never had an issue yet out, and this phone. I can never go back to a normal phone after using this big ass screen. If you're a social media person, this phone is for you.
the pixel fold does have a better aspect ratio, but samsung has the overall better software implementation. and the bezels on that pixel front screen are horrible and look no better this time around.

Most likely. It’s either this or the pixel but I’m weary of the weaker tensor G4.
The design doesn't have to change the vivo has a 5500mah battery. Just saying
What’s the name of your necklace forget the phone lol
My first foldable. About 48 hours in and I’m loving it
nice. congrats
Make sure you get insurance
@@rawspace1212 oh already done bro lol
hows the battery life?
@itsrobb1 I'm not really a heavy user so I'm easily getting a day a day a half
I was a daily Z fold 4 driver, the 6 is a huge upgrade.
how so?
I also had the fold 4 and the fold 6 feels better.
I recently upgraded from the Fold 4 to the Fold 6 and it's definitely an upgrade with the performance!
@Ravaun1 Yes it is, from the perspective of a daily driver of a Fold 4, you can't help noticing the imrovoement to the overall in hand feel of the fold 6.

Can't wait to pay off my 3 and upgrade to the 6 :)

You're enjoying your crease?
@@sanakhversiontechboth the phone and the crease. call me salad fingers but i just like rubbing my hand over the crease.
Crease is far far less than the Z fold 5.
Exactly, never bothered me. I am using foldables since 1st Galaxy Fold.
@@will-zj5gq
😳😮😂🤣🤣🤣
I had the fold 5 and went to fold 6 and I can see the difference in the cover screen and everything else is amazing 👏🏻
Waste of money if you had 5.. but if you have the money go for it
Just upgraded from fold 3 to fold 6, huge upgrade specially the front screen. no regrets.
I hope they don't change the outside screen size. It's perfect for me. I love the ultras features but always thought it was slightly too big
I'm hoping they rename this to the slim and make a bigger one called the ultra.
@@alphaspartan that's the move
Yes ultra is too big so im swapping my s24 ultra to Z FOLD 6 no matter even though its a degrade
They will eventually
Will be great with the current height but the width of the s24.
Im coming from the s22 Ultra and i actually like the front display. I dont need a full size screen on the outside and i have no issued typing. It's been an amazing upgrade.
The pixel 9 fold looks just to large and the hinge side beze is just atrocious
I'm with you with that side bezel. Hideous
Picked mine up 24 hours ago. Don't notice the crease unless you stare at the screen powered off. Absolutely loving it!
Exactly!
Loving my new upgrade to Fold6 and Ultra watch, from Fold3. Hoping I don't have screen cover issues later down the road like I did on the Fold3.
Nice combo. Yeah, fold 3 users are loving this upgrade

This is my first foldable phone and I'm really loving it, the big screen is awesome for multitasking and media consumption. I was worried about the crease but after using it for 48 hours I don't pay attention to it anymore. It is a very snappy phone and the cameras are pretty decent.
Hey, CJ! Where can we get the app icon set?
Nova Launcher / Crayon Icon Pack / Custom widget (video coming soon)
I had issues with the pixel, got replaced 3 separate times in a matter of 5 months so I have completely fallen off of Google phones even the folding one
Came across your videos about a year or two ago & became my “ go to” when I want some info about the latest phones. Great video!.. Far as the a fold 6 I had the 5 and the s24u but ended up with my 15 pro in pocket everyday… I phone just like that bro 🤷🏻♂️
Yo CJ! Between this or the newly announced google pixel 9 pro fold...which do you think is the one to get?
I was not going to update the phone this year only the watch and headphones made a last-minute decision change just ordered the 6 coming from the five I'm pretty happy I got it for $650 so really can't complain was debating on returning it however I think I'm going to keep it
Cj where can I find that icon theme for my fold??

Where did you get your widgets and wall paper
What red charging cable are you using?
which is the name of the widget note app you have on the small screen? thanks
i just ordered a 1tb navy fold6 for 1087$ without trade, that math is def mathing for me. like 1200$ off less than 2 months from launch is crazy
How did you get that price??
@@elsizzle2000 Samsung's fall sale through the app. It looks like current best deal on the app is ~$1232 for navy 512gb with no trade which I would say is still worth
Do you think Amazon is reliable place to buy a new phone like fold5 or fold6. I never buy cellphone from them before?
I'm returning my ZF6. Outer screen is too narrow for me coming from iPhone 14 pro max
Hey man, what is that orange light strip behind you? and where can i find it? thank you boss
Well i dont blame it for taking awhile to charge or it not lasting longer than an average phone just because it has 3 screens
What icon pack do you use? I thought it was too much!
The price is the problem..which is restricting me to buy this.
Totally understand where you are coming from. Two things you might want to consider. First, the Z Fold is really for "power users". It excels for those who want a real computer in the palm of their hand. If someone only uses their mobile device for phone calls, texts and some social media messaging, they don't need and shouldn't waste their money on the Z Fold.
Second, Samsung really treats its Fold owners well. Once you buy one, they give you huge discounts on upgrading. This means that for about $650 every second year you can have a new model. The trade in value given on these Folds is ridiculously high.
@@hermit9852 currently using OnePlus phone..i might buy iPhone 15 on black friday at 500$...or maybe buy z fold 4 instead if I get it at fair price .
I got mine couple days ago I'm like it but haven't had a hard out use due to working
How you get the icons to work on the themes every time I use one they all don't work on them
This could be total BS… but my understanding is that the Fold6’s crease is because of the hinge they need to use to maintain IP48 water resistance. Phone’s like the OnePlus open have a lesser crease but also don’t protect against water like the Fold6 does.
People complaining about the crease need to fold a tshirt in half and recognise thst its completely unavoidable. The fact that they created an inner screen that can fold with a barely visible crease is phenomenal. To me it is something that I actually enjoy, its a feature, not a bug. 😅
Use a phone with a better crease, you'll understand why.
To be fair there’s a new Vivo folding phone that has literally no crease at all
I'm waiting for Samsung to get a better camera then I'll get it. I really want it. I need a big screen
do you have a link to the wallpaper?
I think samsung will surprise people with the battery upgrades.theyre going to come out with something special next year. Even if you look at the s24 its on the thick side. They have to be developing their own new battery tech to create more space without making it thicker or bigger
I had my fold 4 broke on me twice ... Hope the 6 fix the issue
I have the flip and am thinking of upgrading to the fold
Upgrading from a 14 PM to this mainly for gaming via GeForce now and a controller plus it’s the only one that’ll support an S Pen, which I think all of them should. I get that the new pixel fold is larger but that tensor G4 turns me off. That SD gen 3 is still pretty beefy and much faster than the Tensor
please tell me theme name you use

@@CJKnowsTECH thanks bro
Thanks for the video, sir! I'd love to get one of these, but, I think, for me the math doesn't math.
😂
The battery is trash and it charges up slow so it makes it even worse to recover
Is it possible to share info about your necklace, it's really beautiful 😊
What gaming controller attachment was that you were using 1:08
The crease makes it fill like two screens glued together rather than a mini tablet. The oneplus open is still better for me
Great video -thank you. I went from Ultra 22 to Fold6 due to getting a lot for my old phone. I always stick with Samsung so getting this one made sense. My skin is darker than you and agree with the picture quality. However I am really enjoying the size and feel of the Fold so far. The experience has been great so far but agree with all the comments you are making. However I figure when the new one comes out with improvements - I will upgrade as Samsung always gives you a ton of money for a trade in. Keep the good videos coming...Thanks
Samsung really needs a 5+ plus battery, spen silo, quad speakers, no crease 🤷🏾♂️ spen on outer display
Hey CJ I’m so annoyed with Samsung they pushed back my order for a hr galaxy buds pro 3 till September 6th.
So, is it worth upgrading from zfold 4 or is it best to wait on the next evolution of the tech?
I upgraded from fold 4. And I made the right decision. But I would suggest waiting for Google fold2 reviews.
Upgraded from Fold3, nice upgrade.
on my Fold 4 still, gonna hold out for the Fold 7
glad you enjoyed the Fold 6 tho, keep makin great content👌👌
$600 for the trade in it's a fantastic phone, and if you update every year, 600 a year is pretty cool. Cheap for what this amazing phone gives you in the Palm of your hand the most excellent video play back experience, the AI features unmatched, the pin unmatched, screen unmatched, and the software. Just outstanding, I love the z full six.. the pin on the outside of the case is just fine. I don't need it on the inside the battery lasts all day long..
7:24 totally agree. Samsung tripping like big shoes letting others come after them and do better in areas like the crease and camera.
Your zf6 still stuck on June 1 android patch level?
that chain 🔥 where you get that from my boy?
Thank you for reviewing it based on it's merits, rather than rating Samsung on their upgrade efforts from the previous year. So many reviewers get caught in this trap. They review the company and their innovation rather than just the device in question. "Yeah this device is cutting edge technology, the best on the market, buuuuuuuuut they didn't give me enough new features from last year. It doesn't feel as good as I think it should feel, and they just didn't innovate enough for my feelings, based on an arbitrary measurement of 365 days, so I'm only giving it a 6/10." Hate those kinds of reviews.
Love your necklace!
My concerns ❤
1. Camera
2. Aspect ratio
3. Stylus
4. Battery
5. No crease
6. Charging
7. Price
.... and many more
My ultra 22 got a mb issue so i have to get a new phone. Very undecided between s24 ultra and z fold 6. What do you guys reckon? I'm not a multi task kinda guy btw. But fold just felt a different experience I'd like to have one day
Same here bro what did u end up getting?
I have a fold6 since launch, I previously had an iPhone pro max. I am happy with the change. Good phone, maybe if I can buy a pixel fold in my country, I may be wondering but since I can't buy a Pixel, Samsung is an obvious choice.
I came from s21 ultra I wanted a fold since they first came out im glad I waited and got the fold 6 I got 800 off with trade in and free storage upgrade and free galaxy tab s9 fe
Said it before and I'll say it again: They shouldn't get rid of the design they have now, but they DO need to bring us an ULTRA Fold to go along with the design we have now. Ultra should have bigger battery, BEST cameras, taller AND wider front display for an 8" inner display, and the price tag we have now. The base fold needs a price reduction. Spen support on the cover display and an s Pen silo is a MUST for both or they will kill the design I love the fold FOR.
Bro whats your wallpaper i need it it looks fire
What about the Honor V3? VS The Fold 6?
Noone cares about Chinese foldables
What's the details on the necklace though??
I've had my fold 3 since it came out and never had an issue yet out, and this phone. I can never go back to a normal phone after using this big ass screen. If you're a social media person, this phone is for you.
Wait for the 7 ! It will have EVERYTHING this one lacks ! I'll keep my 4 for one more year.
Can't samsung do a software update so the cameras don't make everyone look like somethings wrong with their liver?
Right
the pixel fold does have a better aspect ratio, but samsung has the overall better software implementation. and the bezels on that pixel front screen are horrible and look no better this time around.
I also want to know where in the world did you get that gorgeous necklace 😍😍😍
