Yo bro, this phone is already trash 😂 Good damn in my country there is also better Honor Magic v3 and OnePlus Open available. And Pixel 9 Pro Fold could be avaible here soon too 😂

      ". . . what the original Fold6 should have been"

      Not really. I put image results over camera specs. Phones like the Open, V2 and Mix Fold 3 & 4 don't have better image processing than the Z. I also prefer the smaller front screen, the battery is still 4400 mah(that is now powering more pixels) and even though some Z users can do without s-pen compatibility like myself, I do believe most users want it.

      I'll take the slimmer Z because the overall profile with a hinge protector case will be thin. That's the only benefit. There is no actual advantage in portability or productivity. It's just bragging points the other manufacturers need because given all things equal, most people will buy the Z.

      All of these issues should be resolved when Sam starts using solid state batteries, but that's still 2 years from now.

            I mean..... Didn't we expect this? Samsung is copying apples marketing schemes so of course they gonna under develope their mass production items and get higher profit while getting another profit from selling what was supposed to be the actual product but now it's under the name of SPECIAL so they can charge more
            It's literally ipad and MacBook 13inch and MacBook 16inch marketing strategy.... Lmao..... The only problem is that folding phones are not at the level of MacBook lineup so they just experiment it on local fan base

              Good stuff for mainland and keep pushing trash to rest of the world.
              This one will be probably next fold for next year, well it will be already outdated compared to countries those gonna use 1 year before than rest of us.
              Isnt that technological racism?

                If I were in China, then i’d rather put some more money and get the Huawei mate XT ultimate rather than this thing (atleast it is truly innovative).

                  Magic V3 is still better, cheaper, slimmer and have stylus support. I just can not stop laughing at Samsung 😂

                      Samsung will never be worth 2 grand , when the honor magic v3 exists, and OnePlus open 2 right around the corner. Not a good buy.

                            Samsung is still something innovative, even though that doesn't justify such price tags.

                              and it's sure that next year il will become the galaxy Z Fold 7.......

                                So they removed the s-pen digitizer to make the zfold 6 slightly thinner and lighter and then copied the xperia 1 design to make the "special edition" that they are now going to sell in just two regions and that too at a higher price than the former. Why?

                                    Wow, that just made the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate look like a very good deal.
