Samsung just launched the highly-anticipated Galaxy S24 FE (Fan Edition) smartphone, and here is our hands-on preview in all four main colours!
Samsung Galaxy S24 FE : My Hands-On Experience
I was one of the few who had the rare opportunity to get my hands on not one, but four Samsung Galaxy S24 FE smartphones, which allowed us to do a proper colour comparison.
And now, I present to you – my own hands-on experience with the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE smartphone… in all four main colours!
I apologise for the slightly shaky video – Samsung still insists that I do not take photos or record videos with a smartphone, even though it’s their own Galaxy S24 Ultra!
The first thing you will notice is that Samsung maintained the same basic design from last year’s Galaxy S23 FE. It may not look like it, but the new S24 FE is slightly bigger thanks to a larger 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display – up from 6.3-inch.
What’s also not readily apparent is the upgraded protection courtesy of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+, instead of last year’s Gorilla Glass 5. Overall, it feels slightly larger and heavier in my hands.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE now has a flat aluminium frame, instead of a rounded edge. This new design makes the device look thicker, even though it’s actually slightly thinner.
At the bottom, you will find the USB port, as well as the speaker and microphone ports. The Power and Volume control buttons are located on the right side. At the top, you will find more microphone ports, as well as the SIM tray.
In the front, the Galaxy S24 FE still sports the same 10 MP camera in a display punch hole. At the back, you will find the same triple camera combination of a 50 MP Dual Pixel camera, a 12 MP ultra wide-angle camera, and an 8 MP telephoto camera with 3X optical zoom.
The Galaxy S24 FE is powered by Samsung’s own Exynos 2400e, which is a slightly detuned 10-core flagship processor – its Cortex X4 core runs at just 3.11 GHz, instead of 3.21 GHz in the Exynos 2400. That said, it will be kept cool by a 11% larger vapour chamber.
All Galaxy S24 FE models will come with 8 GB of RAM, and storage options of 256 GB and 512 GB for most parts of the world, and 128 GB for certain regions. It is also IP68-rated for dust and water-resistance, so it will withstand immersion in up to 1.5 metres of freshwater for up to 30 minutes.
Finally, the Galaxy S24 FE comes with a slightly larger 4,700 mAh battery – up from 4,500 mAh in last year’s Galaxy S23 FE. Together with a more efficient 4nm processor, that larger battery should deliver better battery life. It supports 25 watt wired fast charging, as well as wireless charging at up to 15 watts.

Here is my comprehensive review of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 foldable smartphone! Find out why this foldable smartphone won our Editor’s Choice Award!
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 : Colour Options + Price
Samsung just launched the new Galaxy Z Flip 6 smartphone at the Galaxy Unpacked 2024 event, and it will be available in four main colours with a matte finish:
Silver Shadow
Yellow
Mint
Blue
Samsung will also offer three other colour options exclusively on its online store:
Crafted Black
White
Peach
I was amongst the few to get an early look at the Galaxy Z Flip 6, and here is my comparison video of all four main colour options! Do let us know which YOU prefer!
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 will be available in four main colour options, as well as the three exclusive online colours. Pre-order begins immediately, with general available from 24 July 2024 onwards, at these price points :
I managed to get my hands on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 foldable smartphone BEFORE it actually ships! Take a look at my unboxing video, and share it out!
In our unboxing video, you can see that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 package is sparse, and only consists of:
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 smartphone
Set of documents – quick start guide in two languages, and a warranty card
USB Type C to Type C cable
SIM card extractor pin
As the unboxing video shows, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 does not come with any charger, or earphones. Not even a TPU case to hold you over until you get a better case.
Samsung maintained the same basic design from last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5, but with a bold new camera ring design.
Even though it’s the same in every other aspect as the Z Flip 5, the thicker camera ring design means new Z Flip 6 won’t be compatible with the Flip 5 covers.
3.4-inch Flex Window
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 also retained the much larger 3.4-inch Flex Window display from the Z Flip 5, which was its biggest upgrade last year.
The Flex Window has a bright Super AMOLED panel, and a resolution of 720 x 748 pixels. Thanks to its large size, it is much more useful. Not only can you check notifications, and send quick replies to text messages, you can customise the Flex Window with widgets, video wallpapers, clock faces and styles.
The larger display makes it so much easier to take selfies with its awesome rear cameras!
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 comes with the same large 6.7-inch Infinity Flex display as the Galaxy Z Flip 5. This foldable display has a Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, and a resolution of 1080 x 2640 pixels.
Its No-Gap Flex Hinge has been improved with better shock distribution. It also appears to allow the Z Flip 6 to close even tighter, with a small reduction in its folded thickness.
In case you are wondering – the crease is still visible if you view it from an angle, and you can feel it if you run your finger over it. But it appears to be less noticeable in the Galaxy Z Flip 6, making it easier to forget it after using it some time – you will forget it’s even there.
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 display is, of course, large and really beautiful – with excellent resolution, colour gamut and brightness. And it folds into a really compact device about the size of a pager – if you are old enough to remember what that is!
Like previous Flip models, its foldable display comes with a protective film made from stretchable PET, so you should never stick any screen protector on it!
If you are new to foldable phones, you will be really tentative about folding it. But over time, it will become really natural – you won’t even think twice about folding it before shoving it down your pocket. The Ultra Thin Glass (UTG) is rated for at least 200,000 folds, so even if you fold it 100 times a day, it should last at least 5.5 years!
But while the display can withstand a lot of folding, you must still take care not to SCRATCH it. Avoid putting it together in your pocket or handbag with hard objects like coins, another phone, etc.
Performance + Storage
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 runs on the most powerful mobile SoC available for Android devices – the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy, which is a specially-binned and slightly-overclocked version that Qualcomm created for Samsung Galaxy flagship smartphones.
Fabricated on the latest 4nm TSMC process technology, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy comes with eight processor cores in a quad-cluster architecture :
1 x Arm Cortex-X4 core (3.39 GHz, instead of 3.3 GHz)
3 x Arm Cortex-A720 cores
2 x Arm Cortex-A720 cores
2 x Arm Cortex-A520 cores
This mobile SoC also comes with the Qualcomm Adreno 750 GPU which supports ray-tracing, an improved Hexagon NPU, and the Snapdragon X75 5G modem that supports Sub-6Ghz and mmWave connectivity.
Our review sample came with 12 GB of memory, and 256 GB of fast UFS 3.1 storage. It is also available with 512 GB of storage. There is no option to increase storage, but generally 256 GB of storage is more than enough for most people.
Battery + Charging
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 now comes with a 4,000 mAh battery, which is 8% larger than last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5.
It supports 25 watt fast charging, and 10 watt wireless charging. It can even wireless recharge other devices, albeit at just 4.5 watts. However, it does not come with an in-box charger. So you will have to use your old charger, or buy a new one.
Buttons
The only buttons you will find are on the upper right side of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 – the Volume control buttons and the Power button, which doubles as the fingerprint sensor.
Pressing the Power button twice activates the Quick Shot mode, which lets you take selfies using the rear cameras with the Flex Window for preview and control.
Only One Port
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 comes with a USB Type C port, which supports USB 3.2 connectivity. It does not come with a 3.5 mm audio jack, or a USB-C to 3.5 mm adapter in the box.
Dual SIM Support
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 has a SIM card tray that supports a single nano SIM card. It also supports an eSIM, so technically, you can use up to two SIMs at the same time.
Protection
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 has an Enhanced Armour Aluminium frame, which offers 10% better scratch resistance, and its Flex Window is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
And for the first time, it is IP48-rated. In addition to its water resistance at up to 1.5 metres for up to 30 minutes, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is now protected against solid objects larger than 1 millimeter. It is still not dust-resistant, but it will keep small stones out of its delicate innards.
In addition, its chassis has an Armor Aluminium frame, and the Flex Window is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2. Its Dual Pixel main camera is also protected by Gorilla Glass with DX.
Samsung flagship smartphones are notable for featuring cutting-edge cameras, but the Galaxy Z Flip 6 stayed with older cameras.
In the front, it uses a 10 MP punch hole camera with an f/2.2 aperture, built around the Samsung ISOCELL 3J1 (S5K3J1) sensor with a 1.22 µm pixel size. This isn’t a new sensor, being first used in the Galaxy S20 series.
This camera can record video at up to 4K resolution at 60 fps, but you will likely end up using this selfie camera only for video calls, and use the better cameras at the back for your “selfies”!
Improved Dual Cameras At The Back
While the front camera remained the same, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 now has a new dual-camera system at the back, which consists of:
a 50 MP main camera, with f/1.8 aperture
a 12 MP ultra-wide camera, with 123° field of view, and f/2.2 aperture
The new 50 MP camera is the same camera used in the Galaxy S24 and S24+ smartphones. It uses the Samsung ISOCELL GN3 (S5K) sensor, which is a 1/1.57-inch sensor, with 1.0 µm pixels. This camera can record 4K videos at up to 60 fps.
The ultra-wide angle camera is built around the Sony IMX258 sensor, which dates back to 2017. It also has rather small 1.12 µm pixels. It’s a shame Samsung hasn’t gotten around to upgrading it.
Galaxy Z Flip 6 users will quickly realise that it’s better to use these two rear cameras for better selfies. Just double-press the Power button with the Galaxy Z Flip 6 folded to activate these cameras. You can easily switch between the two using the Flex Window.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 : Photo Samples
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 now features a new 50 MP Dual Pixel camera, which is the same main camera used in the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ smartphone.
Even though it supports 50 MP, it will take 12 MP photos by default – combining four physical pixels into one large virtual pixel for better low light performance, and a smaller file size of about 3 MB (HEIC format) with a resolution of 4000 x 3000 pixels – similar to the 12 MP ultra wide-angle camera.
When set to its full 50 MP resolution, the camera takes photos with a resolution of 8160 x 6120 pixels, and a file size of about 10-12 MB. Unless you enjoy pixel peeping, it’s best to use the 50 MP mode only when you need to take photos of faraway objects without resorting to digital zoom.
When used in the selfie mode, the rear cameras deliver Instagram-friendly square 9 MP photos with a resolution of 2992 x 2992 pixels, and a file size of about 1.3 MB (HEIC format).
Here are eight unedited photo samples for you to check out.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 comes with a larger 4,000 mAh battery, which is 300 mAh (8%) larger than last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5.
To test its battery life, we turned off Automatic Brightness, fix the brightness level, and make sure the screen brightness does not change as the ambient brightness changes.
We also set its display brightness to 50%, which is slightly higher than the average indoor brightness level of 40% during the day.
We then ran the PCMark Work 3.0 battery life test until its battery capacity dropped to 20% several times, and this was the best result we obtained with the Standard and Adaptive refresh rates :
Even though the Galaxy Z Flip 6 only comes with 8% higher battery capacity, it actually delivered a significantly longer battery life of just over 11.75 hours using its default Adaptive refresh mode. That’s 2.5 hours of extra battery life over the Galaxy Z Flip 5!
When we switched to the Standard refresh mode, it delivered almost 14 hours of battery life. That’s almost 3 hours longer than the Galaxy Z Flip 5!
Let’s compare its battery life at 60 Hz and 120 Hz, against the Z Flip 5, Z Flip 4, and S24 Ultra smartphones.
Standard Refresh Rate (60 Hz)
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 naturally has the best battery life with the refresh rate set to 60 Hz (Standard) – lasting just almost 14 hours.
You can see just how more power-efficient the Z Flip 6 is compared to its predecessor – it uses 14.3% less power than the Z Flip 5. Coupled with an 8% larger battery capacity, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 offers 26% longer battery life at the Standard refresh rate!

Adaptive Refresh Rate (120 Hz)
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 continues to deliver much better battery life, even with the Adaptive refresh rate enabled – lasting just over 12.75 hours!
The Galaxy Z Flip 6’s power consumption per minute dropped by 16%, compared to Z Flip 5. When combined with the 8% larger battery capacity, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 offers 29% longer battery life at the Adaptive refresh rate!

Whether you wish to enable Adaptive refresh rate for smoother graphics is really up to you. On one hand, you get almost 12 hours of battery life with Adaptive refresh rate. On the other hand, switching to the Standard mode buys you two full hours of extra battery life.
Personally, I rather go with Standard mode for a longer battery life. I may not need the extra 2 hours, but using less power means less wear and tear on the battery over time.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 Battery Recharging Speed!
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 supports up to 25 watts of wired fast charging, but unfortunately, does not come with the charger in-the-box.
So we tested it using the standard 15 watt and 25 watt Samsung fast chargers that shipped with their previous smartphones, which is what we believe most users will end up doing.

One “problem” with the Samsung Galaxy Z-series smartphones is that they charge pretty slowly, probably to avoid producing excessive heat, and to keep its thin batteries healthy.
The good news is – the Galaxy Z Flip 6 charges faster than last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5. But you will still need to put up with relatively slow recharging speeds – the Galaxy Z Flip 6 charges slower with a 25W charger, than the Galaxy S24 Ultra with a 15W charger!
With the standard 15 watt fast charger, you will need 2 hours to fully recharge the Galaxy Z Flip 6. Upgrading to a 25 watt ultra fast charger only speeds this up by 18 minutes (15%). So if you don’t already have a 25 watt charger, there’s no real need to buy one.
Ultimately, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 has a battery life to recharging time ratio of about 7:1, which is 65% better than the Galaxy Z Flip 5 – mostly thanks to its much longer battery life. You get about an hour’s worth of battery life for every 8.5 minutes you recharge.
You don’t really need the optional 25 watt USB-C super fast charger, but if you feel it’s worth buying it for a slightly faster recharging time, here are some online purchase options:
We first tested the Galaxy Z Flip 6 using PCMark, which simulates work applications like web browsing, playing video, writing text and editing photos.

Will you look at that? The Galaxy Z Flip 6 was able to deliver 19% better performance with the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 as the Galaxy S24 Ultra, and 21% better performance than the SD 8 Gen 2 used in the Galaxy Z Flip5.
This is likely due to its vapour chamber – the first in a Galaxy Z Flip smartphone, and 150% larger than the one used in the Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Despite having an ultra-slim, foldable design, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is no gaming slouch. It handily outperforms last year’s Galaxy Z Flip5 by 16% to 37%.
This comes as no surprise as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 really shines in gaming performance. Its Adreno 750 GPU not only supports ray tracing, it does a fantastic job of delivering top-notch 3D graphics performance.
On top of that, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 now boasts a vapour chamber, and one that is 150% larger than the one used in the Galaxy S23 Ultra. This allows its CPU and GPU to better sustain peak performance during intense gaming sessions.
Although ray tracing games are far and few in between for now, the Solar Bay benchmark shows that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 delivers 57% better 3D with ray tracing performance than the Galaxy Z Flip5!

Not bad! The AnTuTu benchmark shows that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is 17% and 20% faster than the Galaxy S23 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Flip 5 respectively – both powered by last year’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Very nice!
Let’s do a quick wrap of what I really like, and don’t like, about the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6.
Much Longer Battery Life
The biggest problem with the Galaxy Z Flip 5 was its battery life, and the Galaxy Z Flip 6 fixed that. Not only does it come with a 8% larger battery, it actually delivers 26% to 29% longer battery life!
Personally, that’s the most important upgrade in the Galaxy Z Flip 6 for me. No more battery life anxiety, with 12-13 hours of battery life on a single charge!
Great Performance
Even though it looks real sleek, it is powered by the incredibly powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile SoC.
For the first time, it also boasts a vapour chamber, which is 150% larger than the one used in the Galaxy S23 Ultra. This allows its CPU and GPU to better sustain peak performance during intense gaming sessions.
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 will easily handle EVERYTHING you throw at it – even graphics-intensive games. It gets toasty when you game, but hey, at least it doesn’t feel like a brick!
50 MP Dual Pixel Camera
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 now has a new 50 MP camera – the same used in the Galaxy S24 and S24+ smartphones. While it defaults to 12 MP like the previous main camera, it uses a newer and better sensor.
On top of that, its 50 MP sensor gives you the flexibility to take ultra-high resolution photos when you need to, or use them to zoom into faraway objects without resorting to digital zoom. It basically works like a 2X optical zoom.
Zilch In-Box Freebies
For a premium product, it comes with zilch freebies in-the-box. As mentioned before, there is no fast charger.
There is also no USB-C to 3.5 mm audio jack, not even a pair of USB-C earphones. Neither did Samsung provide even a cheap clear case to tide you over until you get something better.
It’s More Expensive
Finally, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is a fair bit more expensive (~US$100 / RM500-600) than the Galaxy Z Flip 5.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 : My Verdict + Award
As Samsung’s sixth iteration of the foldable Flip series, the Galaxy Z Flip6 doesn’t offer anything particularly revolutionary. It is an evolutionary upgrade of last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5, to be sure, but it offers enough to make it a tempting upgrade for users of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 or older devices.
Not only does the Galaxy Z Flip6 offer a big boost in performance and memory, it comes with a significantly improved battery life. Its fold flat design is not only “cooler”, it is less likely to damage, while its large 3.4-inch Flex Window is much more useful than the tiny display of previous generations.
Samsung has also refined the Galaxy Z Flip6 to the point that it will also appeal to even people unfamiliar with foldable smartphones.
While the Galaxy Z Flip6 is now a bit more pricey, I think it addressed enough of the deficits in Galaxy Z Flip 5 to deserve our Editor’s Choice Award! Great job, Samsung!

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is powered exclusively by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy, which has a slightly overclocked prime core. It has eight processor cores in a quad-cluster architecture:
1 x Arm Cortex-X4 core (3.39 GHz, instead of 3.3 GHz)
3 x Arm Cortex-A720 cores
2 x Arm Cortex-A720 cores
2 x Arm Cortex-A520 cores
This mobile SoC also comes with the Qualcomm Adreno 750 GPU which supports ray-tracing, an improved Hexagon NPU, and the Snapdragon X75 5G modem that supports Sub-6Ghz and mmWave connectivity.
We first tested the Galaxy Z Flip 6 using PCMark, which simulates work applications like web browsing, playing video, writing text and editing photos.

Will you look at that? The Galaxy Z Flip 6 was able to deliver 19% better performance with the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 as the Galaxy S24 Ultra, and 21% better performance than the SD 8 Gen 2 used in the Galaxy Z Flip5.
This is likely due to its vapour chamber – the first in a Galaxy Z Flip smartphone, and 150% larger than the one used in the Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Despite having an ultra-slim, foldable design, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is no gaming slouch. It handily outperforms last year’s Galaxy Z Flip5 by 16% to 37%.
This comes as no surprise as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 really shines in gaming performance. Its Adreno 750 GPU not only supports ray tracing, it does a fantastic job of delivering top-notch 3D graphics performance.
On top of that, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 now boasts a vapour chamber, and one that is 150% larger than the one used in the Galaxy S23 Ultra. This allows its CPU and GPU to better sustain peak performance during intense gaming sessions.
Although ray tracing games are far and few in between for now, the Solar Bay benchmark shows that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 delivers 57% better 3D with ray tracing performance than the Galaxy Z Flip5!

Not bad! The AnTuTu benchmark shows that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is 17% and 20% faster than the Galaxy S23 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Flip 5 respectively – both powered by last year’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Very nice!
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 Performance Summary
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 may look like Galaxy Z Flip 5, but it offers significantly faster performance, particularly in 3D and ray-traced games. While not reflected in these benchmarks, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 also offers significantly better AI performance thanks to its upgrade NPU.
It also worth pointing out, yet again, that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 finally has a vapour chamber to keep the CPU and GPU cool, for better sustained performance. This is also a rather large vapour chamber – 150% larger than the one used in Galaxy S23 Ultra.
It really shows in the benchmarks, allowing the Z Flip 6 to deliver performance levels close to that of the Galaxy S24 Ultra. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is particularly strong in 3D graphics and ray tracing performance. With strong gaming performance in such a thin and foldable device, it seems rather pointless to spend good money on large, clunky “gaming smartphones”.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 will be available in four main colour options, as well as the three exclusive online colours. Pre-order begins immediately, with general available from 24 July 2024 onwards, at these price points :
Just in case you are wondering, the launch prices for the Galaxy Z Flip 6 went up a fair bit (~US$100 / RM500-600) over the launch prices for the Galaxy Z Flip 5.

Samsung just launched the Galaxy Z Flip 6, and here is my hands-on preview of its latest compact foldable smartphone in all 4 main colour options!
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 : My Hands-On Experience!
I was one of the few who had the rare opportunity to get my hands on not one, but four Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 smartphones, which allowed us to do a proper colour comparison.
And now, I present to you – my own hands-on experience with the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 smartphone… in all four main colours!
I apologise for the slightly shaky video – Samsung still insists that I do not take photos or record videos with a smartphone, even though it’s their own Galaxy S24 Ultra!
Samsung maintained the same basic design from last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5, but with a bold new camera ring design. Even though it’s the same in every other aspect as the Z Flip 5, the thicker camera ring design means new Z Flip 6 won’t be compatible with the Flip 5 covers.
It also retained the much larger 3.4-inch Flex Window display from the Z Flip 5, but Samsung says its Dual Rail hinge mechanism has been improved to deliver better shock distribution. It also appears to allow the Z Flip 6 to close even tighter, with a small reduction in its folded thickness.
On the left side of the foldable display, you will find the SIM card tray, which only supports a single nano SIM card. But for those who need more – the Galaxy Z Flip 6 supports multiple eSIMs.
At the bottom, you will find the USB port, as well as the speaker and microphone ports. On the right side are the Power button with a built-in fingerprint sensor, and the Volume control buttons.
In the front, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 has a punch hole camera hidden at the top of its foldable display. This is the same 10 MP camera from Galaxy Z Flip 4, albeit with a slightly larger f/2.2 aperture. So you can expect it to perform slightly better in low-light conditions.
At the back, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 now has a 50 MP Dual Pixel camera – the same camera used in the Galaxy S24 and S24+ smartphones. But its ultra-wide angle camera remained the same, with a 12 MP sensor, a 123° field of view, and f/2.2 aperture.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile SoC, and for the first time in a Z Flip series smartphone, it comes with a vapour chamber! Samsung tells us that this vapour chamber is 150% larger than the one used in the Galaxy S23 Ultra, which should allow for better sustained performance.
In addition, the Z Flip 6 now comes with 12 GB of RAM, bringing it up to par with the Galaxy Z Fold 6. However, it is limited to storage options of 256 GB or 512 GB. There is currently no 1 TB storage option.
The Z Flip 6 is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2, and Enhanced Armour Aluminium frame, which offers 10% better scratch resistance. And for the first time, it is IP48-rated. In addition to its water resistance at up to 1.5 metres for up to 30 minutes, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is now protected against solid objects larger than 1 millimeter. It is still not dust-resistant, but it will keep small stones out of its delicate innards.
Finally, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 comes with a 4,000 mAh battery, which is 8% larger than last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5, which should offer significantly better battery life.

Samsung just launched the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and here is my hands-on preview of its latest foldable smartphone in all 3 main colour options!
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 : My Hands-On Preview!
I was one of the few who had the rare opportunity to get my hands on not one, but three Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 smartphones, which allowed us to do a proper colour comparison.
And now, I present to you – my own hands-on experience with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 smartphone… in all three main colours!
I apologise for the slightly shaky video – Samsung still insists that I do not take photos or record videos with a smartphone, even though it’s their own Galaxy S24 Ultra!
When folded, the new Z Fold 6 looks like a rather tall and chunky smartphone. Its 6.3-inch Cover Screen is large but has a tall aspect ratio. You can use it like any regular smartphone, without opening the foldable display.
The Dual Rail hinge mechanism is similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 5, allowing the main display to fold completely flat. According to Samsung, it has been improved in the Galaxy Z Fold 6 to deliver better shock distribution.
The SIM tray is now located on the left side of the foldable display. In addition to two physical nanoSIM cards, the Z Fold 6 also supports multiple eSIMs.
On the right side, you will find the Power button, with a built-in fingerprint sensor; and the volume buttons. At the bottom, you will find the USB port, together with the lower speaker and microphone ports; while at the top are another row of speaker ports with what looks like three more microphone ports.
Samsung retained the same cameras from the Galaxy Z Fold 5. The Cover Display itself features a 10 MP punch hole camera with an f/2.2 aperture, while at the back, it features the same triple camera setup, which consists of:
a 50 megapixels Dual Pixel camera
a 10 megapixel telephoto camera, and
a 12 megapixel ultra wide angle camera
When unfolded, you will get a massive 7.6-inch display with a squarish 20.9 by 18 ratio, which offers about twice the screen space as a regular smartphone. This super large display is what makes the Galaxy Z Fold 6 such a productivity powerhouse. It also features a hidden 4 megapixel camera under this large main display.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile SoC, and it is kept cool by a 60% larger vapour chamber, which should allow for better sustained performance. Like the Galaxy Z Fold 5, it comes with 12 GB of RAM, and storage options of 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2, and Enhanced Armour Aluminium frame, which offers 10% better scratch resistance. And for the first time, it is IP48-rated. In addition to its water resistance at up to 1.5 metres for up to 30 minutes, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is now protected against solid objects larger than 1 millimeter. It is still not dust-resistant, but it will keep small stones out of its delicate innards.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 retains the same 4,400 mAh battery from the Galaxy Z Fold 5, but Samsung says it will have a longer battery life.

Interestingly, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 was much slower than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 used in last year’s Galaxy S23 Ultra, and just barely faster than the SD 8 Gen 2 used in the Galaxy Z Flip5.
I should point out that these are peak performance results. The truth is – you won’t be able to actually tell the difference between all these flagship-class mobile processors in normal usage. They are all really fast.

Will you look at that? The AnTuTu benchmark shows that the Galaxy S24 Ultra is a solid 50% faster than the Galaxy S23 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Flip 5 – both powered by last year’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Very nice!
But note that its temperature jumped by almost 12°C! At peak performance, the Galaxy S24 Ultra can get really toasty!
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Performance Summary
There is no doubt that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra offers top-notch performance, thanks to its use of a slightly overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy, and a 90% larger vapour chamber.
It shows in the benchmarks – the Galaxy S24 Ultra topped all of the benchmarks, except for work performance. It is particularly strong in 3D graphics and ray tracing performance. With gaming performance like this, dedicated gaming smartphones seem rather pointless.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra : Price + Colour Options
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is available in four main colours:
Titanium Black
