The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, unveiled on July 10, 2024, and released on July 24, 2024, represents Samsung’s most refined flip‑style foldable to date.
It sports a 6.7‑inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X foldable main display with a resolution of 2640 × 1080 pixels, an adaptive 1–120 Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ support, and an impressive peak brightness of around 2,600 nits for exceptional clarity even in strong ambient light. The 3.4‑inch Super AMOLED cover screen, protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2, offers around 306 ppi at 60 Hz refresh and serves as the Flex Window, enabling use without unfolding
Under the hood, it is powered by the high-performance Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy chip combined with 12 GB LPDDR5x RAM and available with 256 GB or 512 GB UFS 4.0 storage. A built‑in vapor‑chamber cooling system—150% larger than that in the Galaxy S23 Ultra—helps maintain performance under load.
The upgraded camera setup includes a 50 MP f/1.8 wide sensor (1.0 µm pixels, OIS, Dual Pixel AF) and a 12 MP f/2.2 ultra‑wide lens (123° field of view), significantly improving low‑light and HDR photography over previous models. The 10 MP selfie camera benefits from improved processing for better dynamic range and natural skin tones.
Battery capacity has increased to 4,000 mAh, up from the 3,700 mAh in the Z Flip 5. It supports 25 W wired, 15 W wireless, and 4.5 W reverse wireless charging, with real-world usage delivering full-day battery life before needing a recharge.
Built with durability in mind, the phone features an IP48 dust‑ and water‑resistance certification (up to 1.5 m for 30 minutes, for particles >1 mm), Armor Aluminum frame, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection on the cover and back, and an enhanced hinge rated for over 200,000 folds—equivalent to years of regular use.
Software‑wise, it ships with Android 14 and One UI 6.1.1, and is upgradable to One UI 7 on Android 15. Samsung commits to seven years of OS and security updates, giving it one of the longest support periods among foldables
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 also introduces a suite of Galaxy AI features, including Interpreter mode for real-time translation across both screens, Call Assist for translating live voice calls, and creative tools like Portrait Studio, Sketch-to-Image, and Auto Zoom that dynamically switch sensors for better framing during Flex Mode usage.
