I've upgraded from S21 Ultra to Fold 4 and this year could not be happier to return to S24 Ultra. Folds are not worth the money, and not as usable in real life scenarios as people think.
Got my hands on the new Z Fold 6 2days ago. It looks and feels fantastic! YOU HAVE TO FEEL & HOLD IT. The refinement is absolutely on point on every angle. The built feels so robust! Photos and videos won't do justice. You have to check it out! I upgraded from my current Z Flip 5. Excited to receive my preorder. 🔥
I had the fold 3, then switched to the iPhone 14 pro. I learned that there no going back after you get used to a fold. Got the fold 5 the next year and just ordered the 6 in white yesterday. Hope you enjoy your fold as much as I have!
I switched from the Note10+ to the S24 Ultra 1TB (I do a lot of nature photography) and absolutely love it. However, I have to say the new Fold has the same "new" design language and I like what I see! Cheers from Switzerland

It's definitely an upgrade and might be the first fold I actually buy after playing around with it in Best Buy. The build quality is exceptional. Very polished.
Those best buy play tests are dangerous lol. Made me cave and buy the fold 1 when it was $2k straight up no trade ins. At least there's good trade in values now
It was really helpful having the previous iterations of the Fold phones in side-by-side, both in terms of size and weight; that was really helpful and interesting.
6:40 any comments on the crease of a phone that's just been unboxed are a bit disingenuous. The crease definitely becomes worse after 1-2 weeks of use. At least we've seen this on previous fold models. When I switched from the 2 to 4 the latter also had a very shallow unnoticeable crease the first week.
I ordered navy blue, this will be my first foldable phone. Upgrading from s24+ i kept my samsung s23 ultra only 6 month's. I get bored easily with devices so hopefully this will keep me entertained until the next series of something comes out, lol.
The speakers were apparently upgraded on the fold 6 but there is no confirmation from Samsung on the product page on their website. The main camera apparently remains the same but the algorithms have been tweaked slightly to improve low light performance. Again, there is no confirmation from Samsung on the product page. Other big tech reviewers have already speculated in their own hands on videos regarding the upgraded hardware but there is nothing on Sansungs official product page to confirm this. When you do your review please examine these claims to see if they are true. Also, make sure to look at the Samsungs official product page before you review the product so you know what new features (if any) to test. This is why flossy carter remains the best tech review that ever lived!
I tested the speakers for this video but differences seemed negligible vs Fold 5 so I didn't bother putting it in the video. I have more camera footage to share in my next fold video within the next few days. Flossy is a great source for info if you have time for his long videos. I do my best to keep things as trimmed as possible to save people's time and share only what's really useful. Thanks for watching!
Im looking forward to the Fold 6. It seems like the best size to have it be a 1 hand phone closed and a 2 hand phone open. This being opposed to the S24 Ultra being a 2h phone (or 1h with a lot of hand gymnastics).
I have a fold 5 and will be keeping it for a few more years. There are not enough changes to make it relevant to pay my contract off and get it. May be if the outside screen was same as a normal phone ect then I would. But I'm now used to the smaller screen.
Great review! Also love that your videos are p60 quality! It makes the video quality much better and smoother. I wish it was the minimum standard for all YT videos.
Do you tthink this will be a good upgrade from my note 20 ultra? I never found any issues with the note but the lack of software updates might be a problem. I mainly just watch youtube and game
Well I decided to trade in my galaxy fold 3 for fold 6! I was considering a vivo fold or even a oneplus. But the 7 years of software updates did it for me!
@@bosse5228 yes I realize vivo and honor phones are nicer but I use AT&T and I've had problems with those phones in the past! I loved using the Huawei mate 20x when that came out.
While I understand the appeal, longevity trumps innovation. Having to worry about all the issues (screen peeling off,black line of death, ribbon cables wearing out, bristles coming loss) this device will have over its lifespan is so overwhelmingly off putting. And while Samsung care would seemingly address these issues it’s still a massive indicator of how a large company such as Samsung would gloss over these issues. And the probability that one if not all these issues would manifest in 3 years if not sooner doesn’t inspire confidence to buy this device.
@@tekkenmaster123 I enjoyed my 13 pro max but, it was time to try something different and new. So, I bit the bullet and got an excellent trade in value. It arrived yesterday but I am waiting for my phone case to show up, before I open up the box. So to you I say, treat yourself!!
@@AnthonyStone-dn9ym man I’ve been racking my brain about it. I’m balls deep with the Apple ecosystem that I’m afraid I’m going to miss out from Apple and Samsung
@@AnthonyStone-dn9ymoh I'm really interested to hear opinion about Fold 6 from the person who is Appleuser. Because I have doubts buy or not to buy 😅 Thanks:)
Only an Apple user since this past February. Yes it's smooth and excellent video but so is Android. You can't customize iOS like Android and the Fold opens up a whole new level of enjoyment and experience for me. I am still finding out what it's capable of doing. So, I have no regrets on my decision. What about you?? Are you ready to try something new??
My Fold 3 came with a cover screen protector pre-installed, does the Fold 6 also have one out of the box? By the way, this is one of the best impressions out there, thanks for this! 👌🏽
I am glad that you now get the review units during the Event. I remember when you had to buy it yourself, and then I would have to wait, miss out on the offers during the Unpacked Events.
I tested it out in 2 stores today holding the Fold 6 next to my Fold 5 and we recorded it. Had 5 people standing next to me and all of them commented that the crease is still exactly the same
Fellow fold user here guys so don't shoot me. I have a suspicion that what's not being taken into consideration is that when we bring out our Fold 5s and previous iterations before the 5, we are comparing units that have been worn in for at least a year, sometimes more. The crease always looks less noticeable when the device is brand new because it has had nothing like the amount of opening and closing as the devices we take out of our pockets to compare with. I had the Fold 3 and currently the 5
@@peacelove8395 people who complain about the crease are literally slow or something. Its a fold. Its not a straight. It will always have a crease. And then on top that it's not even that noticeable & it doesn't stop the performance of the phone or the screen. Your literally folding a screen in ½ & not breaking it. What do you expect it come back flat?
Shane are you sure about the 50M Ultra Wide sensor? All the news say there is absolutely no change in the camera hardware of Fold 6 compared with Fold 5.
Its convenient considering Samsung will give you for $1000 for it if you trade it in. And Samsung smart switch makes it very easy to change to a different device, plug them together and wait 20-30 min for everything to transfer
Ppl keep saying this isnt really an upgrade from the fold 5 while me and my wife over here with the fold/flip 3 loving the changes from not upgrading every year already preorder 😂
I’m not a huge cell phone lover but am looking for a new experience. This fold 6 looks pretty great for those wanting to do everything. Between the fold and say the s24+, would I be giving anything by important up by going with the fold over the +? (Not digging the ultra)
I hate myself because i suck at making simple style decisions. Stuck between fold 6 Navy or zsilvery Shadow. Initially wanted the flip 6 but went for the fold.
Begrudingly upgraded to this phone from the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, it was on it's last legs and I wanted something a bit more fun and out of the box, I could have gone for the S24 Ultra but wanted in on the foldable scene - amazing how samsung got 4 models in and decided that once again, innovation goes out the window and to follow suit with all it's devices and release the same damn thing for an extra 50 bucks - still, hopefully I don't regret it in 6 months when the OP Open 2 comes out, just can't get on with Oxygen OS lol
I'm not much of an upgrade, but I'm getting the galaxy z fold 6 from the Galaxy s24 ultra. I'm very excited, and this will be my first foldable of !!!!
nice review, really didn't like the narrow os screen in past this one feels better in the hand, but don't know if day to day it is still wide enough... How do you like using it day to day from the outside screen perspective? and is the glare that bad on inside screen? thanks for your review
I think after Z fold 4 I moved back to slab, until and unless they make s pen slot to it like ultra, I will still stick with my ultra series, but may upgrade the watch and buds pro as 3 years ready
Ordered the silver shadow. I went in store to look at it and it was so light and premium. Trading my fold 4. Is the battery life an improvement for you so far?
Nice color choice. Only 1 battery cycle in so far but very happy with 8 hours SOT (mixed use outer/inner screen). Got 7 hours SOT on my Flip 6 so battery is promising for Snapdragon 8 gen 3 on these foldables
@@jajupa78 I agree the weight change is huge, but the trade in is only around $300 which I think not worth it, I think I can squeeze one more year, thanks for the comment.
Dear Shane - Can we have videos playing on your fold 6 without zoom. Want to see how much black bars are there and also a comaparision between S24U in terms of video size will be amazing. Lemme knw here if you can do such video ?
If you look at my camera comparison segment at 10:17 you can see how much black bar to expect. I will add a S24U vs Fold 6 comparison segment to my next video
I always thought by version 3 i would be using a fold but Samsung is not doing anything good yet. Still not best cameras, still not able to store the spen still the crease
Got the crafted black with buds 3 pro and watch ultra can't wait for them, been wanting airpods and watch ultra as i love their form factor and samsung delivered so i don't need to use apple
Hello:) I would like to ask for advice. I have been using s10+ for 4 years, I am completely satisfied with it, but I already wanted to change to something else. I was looking at 15 pro max + I need a tablet (well I need a bigger screen for work and study) and then I saw that the new Fold 6 was released and I was interested in it, and for the first time, because I have never paid attention to Folds. And I thought that, probably, it could replace both phone and tablet and it would be convenient to have one gadget for everything... The question about the cameras is a little confusing (although I am satisfied with mine cameras, but I heard that Apple has a better camera, so I started to think about switching to this side 😅). I would like to hear opinion from Appleuser. Thank you)
Can you confirm it opens completely flat ?! I tested in several stores and the demo Fold 6 ALL do not open up completely flat unless you specifically force it
Yes, edge is very sharp on the bottom left corner when holding in your left hand. Right handed use is fortunately still fine (I almost always use it in my right one handed)
This first impression is like an outlier. I've watched enough other impressions to see that the crease when a new fold 5 is next to a new fold 6, the crease most have said is so little improved, you can barely see any difference if at all. In addition, most have been asking for a while for a large front screen like the competitors offer, so it's a shame that Samsung continues to be resistant to what the market wants, well, except for this reviewer.
@mrkring1526 there's a reason why Samsung was bumped from the #1 spot for foldables by Huawei...and with these designs and pricing they will continue to lose market share.

You picked a good year to give foldables a go. I've been using them since the fold 3, and this years fold 6 is by far the most polished. Congrats 👏
The comparison at 5:10 though. I don't remember the Fold 5 looking that ugly.
Crazy how something new can suddenly make the previous look outdated. Very nice design on this Fold 6 even if it isn't a revolutionary change

What color did you decide
I ordered crafted black, I hope they ship early.
Can someone please help me decide on the silver shadow or navy?
Sure. After seeing all the colors Navy is my #1, Silver shadow #2.
Great review
When the fold and flip 6 came I was waiting for you to review it
Flip 6 next!
@@ShaneSymonds can't wait for that
I'd like to say that was a great review
How do you got the mario game? Im switching from a iphone 15 pro to the fold 6 and i like this review
I have it running on dolphin emulator. The rest is for you to figure out, since Nintendo is always looming
Hello:) I would like to ask for advice. I have been using s10+ for 4 years, I am completely satisfied with it, but I already wanted to change to something else. I was looking at 15 pro max + I need a tablet (well I need a bigger screen for work and study) and then I saw that the new Fold 6 was released and I was interested in it, and for the first time, because I have never paid attention to Folds. And I thought that, probably, it could replace both phone and tablet and it would be convenient to have one gadget for everything... The question about the cameras is a little confusing (although I am satisfied with mine cameras, but I heard that Apple has a better camera, so I started to think about switching to this side 😅). I would like to hear opinion from Appleuser. Thank you)
I saw the black one at the Samsung Store in Glendale, CA. Carbon Fiber Alert fire!!!
Its good? I have it preordered but contemplating switching to the Navy
@@ShaneSymonds yep texture feels and looks amazing in person. Now I can't use a case when I get it.
Love the black color but this year it looks cheap. Navy or silver are better imo
@@LeHung-sr9qd Navy is my #1 color followed by silver. Might be switching my pre order
@@ShaneSymonds me too. I ordered navy switching from s24ultra titan
I want the wallpaper with the car its so kool
New subscriber, best review I've watched so far. Looking forward to seeing unboxing on the ultra watch next.
I have a video up on that!
@@ShaneSymonds I watched, thanks.
I noticed the gaming peripheral in your video. Can you please post a link? Thanks
hows osrs perform on the fold 6?
Can you confirm it opens completely flat ?! I tested in several stores and the demo Fold 6 ALL do not open up completely flat unless you specifically force it
I've played with it today and yesterday at best buy. The ones I tried out opened completely flat. The phone in person is soo slick and premium
Edges are very sharp and very comfortable. I literally get marks on my hand after I close a call after 10 mins
Yes, edge is very sharp on the bottom left corner when holding in your left hand. Right handed use is fortunately still fine (I almost always use it in my right one handed)
@ShaneSymonds, when you're done with the fold five, can you send it my way.
Trading in my IPhone 14 Pro Max! I’m so happy to join Samsung again :D this’ll be my first fold 🤩
This first impression is like an outlier. I've watched enough other impressions to see that the crease when a new fold 5 is next to a new fold 6, the crease most have said is so little improved, you can barely see any difference if at all. In addition, most have been asking for a while for a large front screen like the competitors offer, so it's a shame that Samsung continues to be resistant to what the market wants, well, except for this reviewer.
Glad you dont talk on behalf of everyone, because alot of people still dont a foldable as wide as an S24U.
@mrkring1526 there's a reason why Samsung was bumped from the #1 spot for foldables by Huawei...and with these designs and pricing they will continue to lose market share.
