Ok this is even better!
The only thing i wish it had were the S Ultra cameras but i can live with those since my Z fold 4 takes good videos anyways.

Also, if they absolutely cannot miniaturise the S-Pen (since I imagine a 5mm pen would be uncomfortably thin to hold), they should at least have a way to magnetically clip it onto the back, like with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra and the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra.

Really hoping it will have a 200 MP camera, which doesn't seem to be true. If it won't, it's probably another refresh that won't catch up with regular phones, just like Z Fold 5

Should get rid of selfie of inner screen.
No need.
Outer screen is big enough to use cam for photos/videos and videochat.

Samsung has completely lost the plot with their design language. They should've kept the curved sides and frame, while still getting rid of the curved screen for a flat one; and the corners should've kept the same curvature as the S20 series. The camera island is now very generic, and though it works and is instantly recognisable, it has no soul to it.
The Z Fold6 should've had an S-Pen, and should've been lowered to a thickness lesser than the Z Fold5's at 11mm but greater than this leak's when folded so that it could have a bigger battery (5000mAh should be the minimum for a foldable IMO); better cameras that are taken directly from the S24 Ultra, including the selfie camera being used on both screens inside a punchole; a dedicated S-Pen with its own slot that works on both screens; a sharp resolution of 460PPI on both screens; a Grade 5 titanium hinge and frame done like Apple; triple under-display ultrasonic fingerprint readers (one on the outer display, two on the inner display, similar to the Vivo X Fold2); and minimal, equal-sized bezels with at least a 92% head-to-body-ratio on both screens. I'm fine with the outer screen being 6.2", but the inner one could be 7.8" if the bezels were just smaller.

Very nice. Need the design to be more rectangular and boxy. No curves on all edges. Make it as boxy as possible. I am coming for you

The extra width would make the outer screen 21:9 or 20:9 I wonder

As a z fold 5 owner I hope this doesn't see the light of day, because I plan to change my phone in 2025 and this doesn't seem to be on the right track. I can confirm the usability concerns, a sharp edge would be a nightmare to hold, I find the current z fold 5 to actually be too sharp already. I used the Honor V2 in a store and it was sooo comfortable to hold with those rounded edges all around. Samsung should focus on other things, like a bit wider outer screen, better cameras and minimizing the crease.

justasmile, 28 Feb 2024"Don't get me wrong, I agree with you, but I rath... moreI have seen same issues on few Xiaomi phones and on Pixel Fold.
Problem is that those phones didn't sell enough to have enough users to be vocal about, compared to millions sold Folds and Flips from Samsung.
Now it ia true that if we count china that could change, but chinese people are rarely vocal in a language we western people can read.
And if I have to believe on the words of few chinese friends I have online, Samsung is not the only brand with these issues.
Because the tech is the problem, and all these brands use the same tech of screens.
Anyhow what I just said works for everything that sold a lot, you will rarely hear people complain about stuff that sold less, unless it have severe issues (like some Motorola phones in the past had with green tint issues)
But if the problem is the same, that doesn't work the same way.

Hmm, not sure what to say about the flat sides. Seems like it would make it harder to unfold the phone. The 7 years of updates is nice though.

More sold phones = more users = higher chance to find issues.
Same why they are people with issues on slab Xiaomi phones, slab Samsung and slab iPhones, they sell more so more people will get vocal about issues.

Meanwhile Samsung Z fold 4's screen protector is already bubbling, while the rest don't see a report about that...

justasmile, 28 Feb 2024They gotta work on that crease.I don't think any company can truly get rid of it with current tech, minimise sure.
But even if one release a phone without a crease, using the phone will cause one in the end.
Don't get me wrong, I agree with you, but I rather have the crease as is and have a more durable screen, because that is a bigger issue on these phones.
And samsung service sucks in a lot of countries, or doesn't even exist to begin with, same with other brands that make foldables.
So that "free screenprotector" swap everyone keeps hiding behind is not always a solution.
Heck, I would argue it is unacceptable on such expensive device to begin with.

Looks nice but
This sharp design is the reason I went away from the Ultra series, it is really uncomfortable for someone with smaller hands like me.
Especially with a big phone, so folded the "Fold 6" would be fine, but unfolded is a different matter.
Time will tell I guess.
