After a long series of leaks, Samsung finally introduced the latest Z-series, the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 devices. They’re more durable, lighter, and boast a few minor upgrades. Disappointingly, both models come with an increased price: the Galaxy Z Fold6 starts at a whopping $1,899, and the Z Flip 6 at $1,099.

Both phones have the latest super-fast Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, made just for Samsung. They’ll also get software updates for 7 years, just like the latest Galaxy S24 series. Both of these devices are a bit stronger too, with a better hinge and screen that can handle drops better. They’re also water-resistant, but not dustproof. Even though the IP48 rating sounds better now, it only means they can handle splashes and bigger things, not tiny dust particles.

The Galaxy Z Fold6 brings the display size up to 6.3 inches from 6.2 inches (featured in previous foldable,) while keeping the high resolution and refresh rate (2376 x 968 and 120Hz). The inner display size remains 7.6 inches. Weight also sees a slight improvement, dropping from 253 grams to 239 grams. While the camera system on the Fold6 stays largely the same with a 50MP main sensor and 10MP 3x telephoto, the ultrawide sensor gets a bump to 12MP and promises better low-light performance.

Unlike the Z Fold6, the Galaxy Z Flip6 keeps the same 3.4-inch cover screen as its predecessor. There are some minor improvements with the cover screen: smarter reply suggestions, more widget options, and interactive wallpapers.

The device is also packed with some significant upgrades. It features a larger 4,000mAh battery, a first-ever vapor cooling chamber for the Flip series, and an upgrade to 12GB of RAM in the base model. Storage also starts at 512GB, a welcome change considering the price increase.
