[SAMSUNG GALAXY FOLD6 REVIEW]
Despite widespread skepticism following a tumultuous launch, it only took two generations for Samsung’s Galaxy Fold to demonstrate its value to power users, and three generations to solidify itself as the Galaxy Note for a new era: an expensive but extremely powerful pocket PC for a new generation of "mobile accomplishers."
But here's the problem: Samsung saw that success ... and ... milked it. The Galaxy Fold 4 was a relatively minor upgrade to the Fold 3, and the fifth iteration was so tame, so uninspired, that even I, the foldable fanatic ... skipped covering it. Because while Samsung was making improvements you could only measure with calipers, companies like OnePlus, Google, Xiaomi and Honor kept pushing the envelope with better cameras, bigger batteries, slimmer casings, different materials and new aspect ratios.
So, many of us hoped that 2024 would be the year Samsung finally stepped on the gas. Maybe it would finally widen that cover screen to match the competition; maybe it would add a 5x telephoto camera; or give its S Pen stylus a proper garage that didn't require a clunky case; or work on minimizing that crease. And even if Samsung didn't do any of that ... maybe that would mean the price could finally come down!
Sadly, the Galaxy Fold 6 meets none of those criteria. And after its unveiling, my first impressions reflected that: youtube.com/watch?v=Ojm4qvQ5vS...
Since that time, I've spent ten days with the Galaxy Fold6. First in Paris (where Samsung flew me along with a ton of media to cover its massive launch event) ... then in Mexico City (where Spotify flew me, along with a ton of influencers, to cover something completely different). Fun fact: for that Spotify trip, I left my laptop at home, and used the Fold6 as my sole computer for all three days.
That deep dive showcased the kind of polish you only get when your product is on its sixth generation … refinement that’s truly laudable. The Fold6 is an outstanding foldable. But neither that refinement nor its vaunted “AI” features cured my frustration with the phone’s iterative timidity, nor did they convince me of Samsung's need to charge even more money for it.
