Moreover, it also brings the power of Galaxy AI giving a better user experience. Let’s check out the detailed information regarding the newly launched Galaxy Z Fold 6 below.
Design & Durability
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 follows in the footsteps of its predecessor by keeping a similar design language. It has a vertically aligned camera module seen on the previous models. However, there has been some polishing done. The phone appears a little more boxier and also dignifies itself with new color options. The phone is available in Silver Shadow, Pink, and Navy color options.
As with the previous models, this one also has two displays. The outer display is now wider, while the inner shrinks the bezels for more screen real estate. Samsung also highlighted that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is thin compared to previous generations. When folded, it has a thickness of 12.1mm and 5.6mm when unfolded. Moreover, it is also thinner at 239 grams.
Talking about durability, Samsung opted for an enhanced Armor Aluminium to give more strength to the device. Moreover, for the glass protection, there is Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the device. Apart from that, the phone is also IP48 dust and water-resistant giving peace of mind to the users.

Powering the smartphone is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. It is one of the most powerful Android processors in the market. Moreover, Samsung has also given the support of Ray Tracing for an enhanced gaming experience. Being a flagship device, performance will not be an issue.
Moving to the camera segment, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 features a triple rear camera setup. It is led by a 50MP primary, a 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x zoom. The phone has two selfie cameras. One on the outer display which is a 10MP shooter. While the inner display gets a 4MP under-display camera.
In the battery segment, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 rocks a 4,400mAh battery capacity with support for 25W charging. Unfortunately, this is not the fastest and it would have been better if Samsung opted for faster charging support. Moving forward, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 comes with Galaxy AI which essentially means that users will get access to all the smart features that Samsung unveiled in the Galaxy S24’s launch event. Moreover, the software experience is further enhanced with the support of 7 years of Android OS updates making it a future-proof device. Check out more details on Samsung’s official website.

Conclusion
