Fresh takes on Samsung’s latest flip phone: Why you should upgrade to the new Galaxy Z Flip6 

From a better camera to longer battery life, here’s a rundown on the new features you can enjoy on the Galaxy Z Flip6

As the pioneer of modern foldable technology, Samsung continues to innovate and improve their foldable line with every launch – and their latest Flip is no exception!

The Galaxy Z Flip5 made waves last year with the debut of its larger cover screen and improved hinge. Now, with the Galaxy Z Flip6, Samsung further strengthens their position as a leader in foldable innovation with improvements on the Galaxy Z Flip6 hardware, camera and battery, plus adding even more Galaxy AI features that maximizes the foldable form factor.

For the foldable fans out there, here are the exciting new features you can get on the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6!

Upgraded camera and photo editing tools

The Galaxy Z Flip6 has made content creation more fun and convenient with upgrades and new features all loaded in a compact device. The Flip now has the flagship camera of the Galaxy S24. It boasts an upgraded 50MP Wide and 12MP Ultra-wide sensors that deliver clear and crisp details in pictures. The former also supports 2x optical zoom for noise-free photos while the AI zoom offers an advanced shooting experience with up to 10x zoom. Samsung’s Nightography feature is also enhanced with video HDR which allows you to capture more brilliant videos even in dim lighting. 

Of course, the FlexCam is always a highlight of the Galaxy Z series, giving its users a unique camera experience. On the Galaxy Z Flip6, Samsung has elevated this feature even more with the new Auto Zoom, wherein the FlexCam can automatically find the best framing for your shot by detecting the subject and adjusting the zoom in or out. This way, you don’t have to choose between you, your friends or an incredible backdrop. You can find your best angle all while maintaining a hands-free experience.

After taking awesome photos, you can further enhance and personalize them with the native editing tools on the device. The new Portrait Studio allows you to transform your portraits into various styles such as watercolor, 3D, cartoon, among others. Another exciting new feature is the Sketch to Image. It not only allows you to beautify your sketches and simple drawings on the Notes app but also allows you to generate and add new realistic elements on your photos – you can add a watch on your wrist, a cat beside you or even draw furniture to help you visualize when renovating – the possibilities are endless.

Worry-free experience with improved battery life and durability

You can now make more content for longer as Samsung has improved the battery capacity of the Galaxy Z Flip6 to 4,000mAh, making it at par with the Galaxy S24. Samsung has also made battery life longer on the Flip through hardware and software optimization.

When it comes to durability, the Galaxy Z Flip6 now has the enhanced Armor Aluminum and Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 2, making this the most durable Galaxy Z series yet. It also sports a floating screen, which is an added layer on your screen for better protection.

Finally, the new flip now also has an IP48 water resistance rating, meaning your device is protected from accidental submersion in fresh water up to 1.5 meters deep for up to 30 minutes and infiltration of objects larger than 1mm.

Revolutionary AI features optimized for foldables

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 is sure to offer an unrivaled foldable experience not just with its hardware upgrades but with software upgrades, optimizing Galaxy AI features first launched in the Galaxy S24 series and new features exclusive to the Galaxy Z series that maximize the foldable form.  

The 3.4-inch FlexWindow of the Galaxy Z Flip6 allows users to use Galaxy AI features without even opening the device. The Suggested Replies feature analyzes the way you type your messages and suggests quick responses personalized to you. For extra personalization, it also has the AI-powered Photo Ambient wallpaper, which allows your cover screen display to change real-time based on the weather outside. The FlexWindow also offers even more Widgets, allowing you to check information from multiple Widgets at a time.

Utilizing the flip’s cover screen, the Interpreter feature now comes with a new conversation mode, which shows the on-device translations on the cover screen for a more seamless conversational experience, while the Listening Mode option is perfect for one-way translations when listening to lectures, news reports, conferences, or even your favorite K-pop idol’s livestream. The Live Translate feature now also extends to third-party apps, allowing more of your phone calls to be translated directly on your device in real-time.
