Earlier this year, Samsung set a benchmark in mobile technology with Galaxy AI. The new Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 build on this legacy, integrating advanced AI functionalities into their flexible designs.
These devices leverage AI to enhance productivity and creativity, whether through the Galaxy Z Fold6’s spacious screen or the innovative FlexWindow of the Galaxy Z Flip6.
TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics, emphasized the company’s commitment to innovation, stating, “Samsung’s legacy of innovation has positioned us as leaders in the mobile industry, pioneering foldable technology and ushering in the era of mobile AI. We are excited to merge these two transformative technologies to unlock new possibilities globally.”
Design-wise, both the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Flip6 boast the thinnest and lightest profiles in the Galaxy Z series. A symmetrical design with straight edges lends a sleek finish, while the Galaxy Z Fold6’s new cover screen ratio enhances viewing experiences. Enhanced durability is ensured through a reinforced folding edge, Armor Aluminum, and Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 3.
Under the hood, these devices are powered by the Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform, offering superior CPU, GPU, and NPU performance. An upgraded cooling system with a larger vapor chamber maintains optimal performance even under heavy use.
AI capabilities further enrich user interactions: Samsung Notes’ Note Assist offers translation and auto-formatting for seamless meeting notes on the Galaxy Z Fold6, while Composer from Samsung Keyboard suggests text for emails and social media. The Galaxy Z Flip6 features a 3.4-inch Super AMOLED FlexWindow for quick access to notifications and updates.
Security is paramount with Samsung Knox, providing defense-grade protection and real-time threat detection. The devices also prioritize sustainability, incorporating recycled materials and offering extended OS upgrades and security updates.
The Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 series are now available for pre-order, with general availability starting July 24. The Galaxy Z Fold6 comes in Silver Shadow, Pink, and Navy, while the Galaxy Z Flip6 offers Silver Shadow, Yellow, Blue, and Mint color options, catering to diverse consumer preferences.
