   First time Full-size Foldable owner!
   I originally got a Zflip 5 and liked the compactness and versatility, hence I decided to give the fold a try!Pros:- the beautiful, large screen is perfect for multi-tasking, for example: texting somebody about a vacation destination and taking quick screenshots and sending it right to them on the other side of your screen- The external cameras are an amazing improvement from last year, likely because Samsung tuned their auto-ai-whatever image processing.- the foldable screen makes it it’s own stand! YouTube even has a built in mode that turns the bottom half into the video controls!- The springs don’t drag it open or close like my flip, so I can stand it at almost any angle!- materials make it feel premium! Samsung put a lot of effort into perfecting the foldable feeeling of quality. I also own an S24 ultra and they feel almost identical in terms of trust I have in the physical design and materials. Extremely well machined!- using the outside screen doesn’t feel terrible and cramped as I had expected. It’s a lot like when I got my flip and thought it was weirdly tall, but I got used to it.- ecosystem integration is finally to a point I can recommend people get everything Samsung, like the watch, ring, and tablets! Copy and paste works, if I need to open a message on my phone from my watch, I can immediately just open my phone, copy an OTP, etc.Ehhh:- Battery life is middling, it will last you all day, BUT with low-medium use. I am in a job where I use it around 4 hours a day and it struggles to be at even 20% at the end of my day.- Samsung bloatware is Mostly removable, I miss my pixel phones with completely uninstallable to no bloatware. I hate that we have non-uninstallabke bloatware like AR camera or Bixby (Google assistant FTW)Cons:- app support is getting closer to being more widespread but still not where it needs to be, some apps have issues with both the external and internal display ratios, whether it be too skinny to display things, or too wide to display things properly.- front/internal camera is terrible, it is taking a picture through the screen, but it is simply unacceptably bad- Brightness of the screen is not enough for outdoor use. I went to a local restaurant today and noticed I could barely see the screen with extra brightness enabled in overcast weather.Overall 8.5/10TL:DRPhysical design is impeccable, however software support and battery life hold it back from being what Samsung envisions: the perfect compact phone. 8.5/10

   For those ALREADY used to Samsung’s “Note/Galaxy” series of Phones, this is the next logical upgrade
   After years of our family using a variety of Android phones (I have 2 front pockets so I also carried an iPhone), we settled down on the Samsung Note series for a few generations. I attempted to upgrade my wife to another brand folding “Phablet” (by all accounts it is best-of-breed) but she was too used to the Samsung Android implementation and found the changes a painful struggle to attempt to adapt to. So I took the non-Samsung folder and upgraded her to the Z Fold 6. She is now “a happy camper”, which, of course, makes me a happy camper. The Z Fold 6 works reliably and largely consistent with past Samsung phones, but it isn’t cheap nor necessarily best in class (why do you think I first started with a different folding screen phone? Because there are technically better ones out there).- There are Pros and Cons of other folding screen phones, but it all depends on what you are used to and if your technical background prepares you for major changes you’ll face when switching platforms. For a lot of people, once they’ve made the time commitment to go thru the learning curve to become functional the often aren’t amenable to making a new time investment to switch, so they stay with the platform they are use to.- I’ve lived in Tech from mainframe days and across most every conceivable new Tech since, so for me exploring/learning new Tech is “business as usual” – an extension of many of my past jobs (I’ve worked for a number of manufactures in new product design and first use roll-out and to discuss details with others meant they needed to execute a NDA). But for most others (MOST – not all), I expect they want what takes the least effort. When people ask me “what should I get?” unless they have demonstrable technical ability I’ll usual recommend “what do your friend have – unless you want to be alone on an Island, you’d best stay with the flock so you have others to ask when you need help”.

   From s23 to fold 6
   This was definitely worth the upgrade. I like the s23 and it was hard to give up my S pen. I bought the pen and case to hold the pen. The update, speed, power, and ability to multitask is great. The battery life could have been better, but it is slim and easy to use.

   Almost Perfect!
   The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 improves upon that of its predecessor. Its refined, sharper, and lighter. The model design is a little bit longer and following the design choice of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. However there is so things it could improve of on the future. The first thing is the phone isn’t the smartest software wise with autocorrect. I am hoping with the next One UI update it receives an adequate update. But the biggest fix for the future would be, the design. Don’t get me wrong its absolutely stunning in pink and screen quality however, the body design makes it difficult to hold. On countless times since it’s delivery, it has dug into my skin and left indentions. So if holdability is important you may want to consider that. Other than that, the phone is stunning! Perfect for streaming without the need for a TV

   BEWARE OF THE RESTOCKING FEE
   I ordered this for my daughter, It’s a beautiful phone the Software is most definitely impressive. However the front screen was smaller than we anticipated and the fonts a little tiny. So my Daughter decided to go with the One plus open. I returned this phone exactly the way it came and the seller charged me a $349 restocking fee, If I was aware of this I would have not made this purchase as I feel this is a Rip off.
