Samsung says the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is more portable, more powerful and generally better at tasks related to work, creativity and language translation than its predecessor. So what better way to put it to the test than to rely on it during my time working in Paris?

The crease actually looks worse, I’m not even kidding. This is now the 6 gen fold and it looks worse than oppo’s folding phone.

You don’t even notice it when looking head on. 😂

I went to see the phone in person this morning at Best Buy. The crease is actually improved by a lot. I agree, in her video the glare makes it seem worse than the fold 5 but in person looks wayyy better

Oppo’s is just wider, but it’s still there.
All foldables will have a crease, especially after use. My Fold 5 looked almost creaseless for the first few days.

The crease looks awful in those first shots. I went to play with one today at Best Buy though, it’s so slick

Galaxy Z Fold 6 is barely an improvement over the last 2 models. Samsung has become complacent, the Fold is using the same cameras as the S24 which costs less than half its price. Yet they have the nerve of increasing its price this year!
@nickthaskater
July 12, 2024 at 6:11 pm
Talking about Gemini like it’s not available on the Fold 5, or numerous other phones…

Pre ordered this phone after trying out the S23 ultra for a year. I don’t need the pen in the S23 Ultra and a bigger screen on a Folding phone is so appealing to me. Also excited abt the ProBuds3 ❤

I have Fold 5. Should I buy Fold 6? I want, but don’t know…please tell me
@baoweezy5911
July 12, 2024 at 6:51 pm
I had the same question for myself, and i ordered because of the trade-in program. 😂
@TheMreargasm
July 12, 2024 at 6:55 pm
Absolutely go for the 6 since its inner display is brighter due to higher nits than the 5. And do not forget about 7 years of os upgrade
@King_504

I think it’s worth it given the trade in values and also i feel like it’s more polished foldable

@@CNET i beg to differ. Go look at your other video from today. After 8 hours y’all haven’t interacted with any comments. Before this response, y’all didn’t like or comment on any responses. It’s common on android videos.

@ChrisJohannsen

Its exactly the same phone as the last three years but less ergonomic, which previously was the only thing that made it more appealing than the uncomfortable s24 ultra.
@adamwesty4569
July 12, 2024 at 7:37 pm
I’ve actually held the fold 6, definitely not as sharp as the s24
@jayred139
July 12, 2024 at 7:37 pm
I can respect CNET for actually being honest if you have the fold 4 or 5 it’s clearly not worth upgrading. You would be basically paying around 1,000 dollars for a boxy figure and a brighter screen.
@felixplace2
July 12, 2024 at 7:48 pm
I pre order the phone using my z fold 5 for the credit and I purchased the 1tb. The 7 years of software updates and patches. I’m sure i will be trading this phone next year for the fold 7🎉
@anthony-yj2oe
July 12, 2024 at 8:26 pm
I m sure it’s a great one but just compared the thickness and weight of this phone with the honor magic v2 model a year ago, I seriously laughed. I have all iPhone, s23 ultra, honor magic v2, ipad and tab s9 -😂 guess what’s I only left with in my daily use?

Crease is so bad, I checked in person as well. Other companies have gotten it so right in today’s days. I wonder why Samsung din improved it. Cant buy it with so much evident crease.

*SAMSUNG FOLD :*
Not Slim / No Pen / Not even good Camera
But atleast give bigger battery, dont mind even if its 200mAh less than Vivo x Fold Pro 3

I’ll wait once it’s foldables are cheaper. The asking price right now is too steep.
@jeffk1589

I don’t know when that’ll happen. The prices have only gone up since they started making them.

Had the fold 4 and exchanged it for the s24 ultra. My inner screen on the fold 4 broke after a year of use so I was so mad. I do like the s24 ultra but I just missed the fold Form factor. I’m not happy about Samsung not upgrading the camery and battery on the Fold 6 but I’ll willing to give it a try. If I don’t like it, I’ll return it

when they have premium cameras from a premium product group I will buy it again. Samsung makes very weak improvements on these Fold models.
@user.asleep
July 13, 2024 at 3:32 am
It’s hard to recommend this when there are better options out there like the vivo x fold3 pro and honor magic v3 for much cheaper price
@johnchang3807
July 13, 2024 at 4:17 am
Im totally upgrading to fold 6 from fold 4 especially after fold 4 internal screen died one morning without warning thankfully within 2 years replacement warranty. The fold 4 internal screen definitely has major quality issue as many had shared , while external screen has inherited too narrow screen since fold 1 until pixel fold finally woke samsung up !!. Thank you Google . This fold 6 finally has the balance of being totally usable and holdability comfortably.
