Overnight, Samsung held their Galaxy Unpacked event for 2024 which seen a series of new hardware announcements. Samsung’s new Galaxy Z Fold 6 addresses one of my biggest complaints when I reviewed last year’s Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 5.
Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 features many changes, but the most important for me is the increase in size to the front display. Now wider, the cover screen is a healthy 6.3″, but importantly is wider, allowing the content displayed in apps to show more naturally than the Fold 5 which was too skinny to be useful.
Samsung’s long history of innovation has allowed us to lead in the mobile space, creating the foldable form factor and ushering in the mobile AI era. Now, we are excited to bring these two complementary technologies together and unlock new possibilities for users around the world.
TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics.
Our foldables meet the unique needs of every user and now enhanced by the power of Galaxy AI, Samsung is delivering an experience like never before.




Samsung’s continued innovation for foldables has created the slimmest and lightest Galaxy Z series ever, optimised for portability. The perfectly symmetrical design with straight edge provides an aesthetically sleek finish while a new cover screen ratio on Galaxy Z Fold6 provides a more natural bar-type viewing experience.
Along with design refinements, the new Galaxy Z series is engineered to provide you peace of mind. The dual rail hinge structure is supported by a strengthened folding edge. Plus, enhanced layers on the main screen help maintain strength. The latest Galaxy Z series is also equipped with Armor Aluminum3 and Corning® Gorilla Glass Victus 24.
In addition to being reliable, every element of the Galaxy Z series is also powerful. Both the Galaxy
Z Fold6 and Flip6 are equipped with the Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform for Galaxy5, the most advanced Snapdragon mobile processor yet, combining incredible CPU, GPU, and NPU performance.
The processor is optimised for AI processing and offers enhanced graphics along with improved overall performance. The upgraded cooling system maximises performance with a larger vapour chamber on Galaxy Z Fold6 and, for the first time ever, a vapour chamber on Galaxy Z Flip.

A newly added Composer8 from Samsung Keyboard generates text based on simple keywords for emails, social media posts and comments. Additionally, the S Pen9 experience is expanded further meeting with Galaxy AI on the Galaxy Z Fold6’s screen.
