 Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 Review

Introduction

In recent years, Samsung has launched some pretty cool smartphones with foldable features, powerful batteries, and amazing cameras. The company is currently at peak innovation with the new and creative updates of smart devices. This year, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 was launched in July. The company did great work with materialising the smartphone with unique features, a foldable screen, dual camera, sensors, and accessibilities. Along with the usual upgrades like a newer processor, powerful battery, and embedded memory, Samsung has focused on improving the looks and feel of the smartphone. They have used new mechanisms that have helped bring down the weight and thickness of the phone. From bulky big smartphones to sleek and compact designs, the company is surely focused on making the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 a turnover. However, if you currently have a Galaxy Z Fold 4, you can easily cut on this generation and wait for the next model.

In this blog post, we are going to highlight the features of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 and compare it with other brand phones of the same range. 

For more comparisons, reviews, blogs, and articles, you can also visit BookMyBlogs.com which is an online journal and informational website run by professional entrepreneurs and writers.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 price

The starting price of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 starts at the same expense as the previous generation’s model. At Rs. 1,54,999, you can purchase the  256GB model with 12GB of RAM. The company has launched the phone with two more variants with equal RAM but more storage. The 512GB variant costs around Rs. 1,64,999, while the 1TB variant is priced at Rs. 1,84,999. 

However, the Fold series cannot expand the storage so you will have to pay for buying variants with more ROM. For most users, the base variant should provide enough storage and is available in Icy Blue, Phantom Black, and Cream.

The phone does not come with the supreme Samsung's S Pen. The users will have to purchase the pen separately. You can also buy accessories for the phone such as covers, mobile grips, holders, and more. 

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 design

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 comes with a sleek design and attractive appearance. Though you cannot easily distinguish it from its predecessor, upon looking closely, you will find slight modifications such as the placement of the LED flash, colours, folding notch, camera looks and more. 

The phone is one of the best horizontally built folding phones with shatter-resistant glass on the front and the best quality aluminium frame on the back. The upgraded hinge also allows the two halves of the phone to sit nearly adjacent to each other when folded. The gap has also been remarkably reduced with an IPX8-rated body for water resistance.

Both the screens on the Galaxy Z Fold 5 are very similar to the Fold 4 with minor exceptions such as the brightness of the folding display, which is upgraded to 1,750 nits from 1,200 nits in the previous generation of the phone. However, the screen dimensions are similar to the previous generation which includes a 6.2-inch HD+ AMOLED outer display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Additionally, the size of the screen is the same as the Fold 4 generation i.e. 7.6-inches QXGA+ display with 120Hz refresh rate.

Display Reviews

Both displays of the phones have good flexibility and under direct sunlight produce vibrant and catchy colours. The outer display can be effectively used for simple tasks while the big screen can be used for office work, reading, multi-tasking, and much more. Users can use multiple apps at once for gaming, watching videos, listening to music, reading, working, etc. However, the crease is still there and can be easily spotted from different angles. 

Accessories in the Box

With Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, you don't get many accessories. The phone comes with a box containing a SIM eject tool, a USB Type-C cable, and some user guidelines. Considering the price of the phone, the user expects brilliant accessories such as a S Pen for higher performance and style.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 software

Similar to the S23 series, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 uses a custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. It's a strong and power-efficient processor that delivers a smooth experience and performance. The software of the phone functions on One UI 5.1.1 based on Android 13. Various software features from the Fold 4 are included in the Fold 5 generation, such as Flex mode and multi-app usage. However, there are some new functions such as showing recently closed applications in the taskbar. The users can enable this function from the settings manually and customise their mobile phone based on their preferences. 

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 Battery

The battery capacity of the phone is similar to that of last year which is marked at 4400 mAh. The phone can be charged using a 25W wired charger or a 15W wireless charger. It supports fast charging and once powered can last a whole day of multi-tasking. However, the prevent battery drain, it is important to take care of your battery and retain its life for long-term use.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 cameras

In the phone, there are no noticeable changes from the previous generation phone. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 contains a camera panel of three rear lenses including a 50-megapixel wide, 12-megapixel ultra-wide, and a 10-megapixel telephoto with 3X optic zoom. 

On the front screen, there is a 10-megapixel selfie camera installed and a 4-megapixel lens under-display camera. These can be used for selfie photos, video calls, visual meetings and more. 

Conclusion

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 is a remarkable update to the previous generation models. However, it has little to no similarities to last year's version Fold 4 model. Except for a few minor changes the phone is almost similar with the same functions, processors, cameras, and more. In this blog post, we have highlighted the features and functions of the newly launched Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Review

The $1,899.99 Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 picks right up where the Z Fold 5 left off: It's an exceptionally versatile phone with enough power to handle most any task you throw its way. The improvements over its predecessor aren't groundbreaking, but its refined cover screen experience, increased durability, and reduced weight all help give it a premium feel in line with its price. The fantastic camera system, seven years of software support, and innovative Galaxy AI features are highlights, too. Our main complaint centers around the Z Fold 6's underwhelming charging specs, but that's not enough of an issue to prevent it from earning our Editors' Choice award. It's simply the best big foldable phone phone on the market.

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 measures 6.04 by 2.68 by 0.48 inches (HWD) when closed, spans 6.04 by 5.22 by 0.22 inches when open, and weighs 8.43 ounces. It's shorter, wider, thinner, and lighter than the Z Fold 5, which measures 6.10 by 2.64 by 0.53 inches closed, expands to 6.10 by 5.11 by 0.24 inches unfolded, and tips the scales at 8.92 ounces. The aging $1,799.99 Google Pixel Fold is downright hefty by comparison. It comes in at 5.50 inches by 3.10 inches by 0.50 inches closed, folds out to 5.50 by 6.24 inches by 0.23 inches, and weighs 9.98 ounces. All three of these devices fold flat when closed, a must for all foldable phones these days.

The Z Fold 6 and Fold 5 have the same layout of buttons and ports. The volume rocker and power button/fingerprint sensor are on the right edge. The fingerprint sensor works well, with few errors. Thankfully, Samsung now allows you to input your fingerprint while the device is still closed. (This was not possible on the Z Fold 5.) Face Unlock is also an option, but it's less secure. A USB-C 3.2 port for charging and data transfer is at the bottom right of the opened device, while dual speaker grilles are at the left top and left bottom of the frame. Whereas the grilles for the latter have a sleek, slit-like appearance here, those on the Z Fold 5 have nine distinct holes. The SIM tray on the left frame accepts one physical nano-SIM; the Z Fold 6 also supports eSIM.

Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 covers the front screen and the back panel; this is the same material that protects the Galaxy Z Flip 6. According to Corning, this glass handles drops on rough surfaces better than the original Victus. The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra uses a newer material called Gorilla Armor, which resists scratches, protects from drops, and reduces screen reflections by 75%. I would like to see the Galaxy Z Fold series adopt the same options as the S24 Ultra in light of their higher starting prices.

Samsung uses an enhanced Armor Aluminum for the Z Fold 6's frame, which is 10% stronger than the Armor Aluminum on the Fold 5. Also new for this model is official dust resistance. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 gets an IP48 rating, an improvement over the Galaxy Z Fold 5's IPX8 rating. Both can survive submersion in water, though the Z Fold 6 can also resist ingress of materials 1mm or larger. For comparison, the Pixel Fold has an IPX8 rating.

The build quality of the Z Fold 6 is superb, with great attention to detail. The squarish corners and increased width are the biggest design changes. Galaxy Note and S24 Ultra fans will be familiar with the pressure of the corners, but some people might find them uncomfortable. I was aware of the corners at first, but they became normal to my hands after a few hours. Holding the closed Fold 6 on the hinge side is more forgiving, thanks to the hinge's curves. I found the Z Fold 6 more comfortable to hold while open than closed, thanks to the difference in weight distribution.

The hinge operates smoothly with the right amount of resistance. The Z Fold 6 holds its angle from about 45 to 135 degrees; otherwise, it snaps shut or open. Like previous models, the device should survive 200,000 folds. OnePlus claims its foldable phone, the OnePlus Open, can withstand a million folds.

Three cameras are on the rear in a raised, pill-shaped area, with a flash to the right. Otherwise, the back is a showcase for the colored panel. The Z Fold 6 comes in Pink, Navy, or Silver Shadow (the last the color of my test unit). Samsung also sells two exclusive colors on its website: Crafted Black or White. The matte finish on the back, frame, and hinge gives the Z Fold 6 a sophisticated look, though the back of my test unit was a smudge magnet.

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is compatible with the S Pen stylus on the inner screen, though it's an optional accessory. Samsung says that any S Pen that works with older Z Fold models will work on the Z Fold 6.

Samsung galaxy z fold 6 - Wow, It's FINALLY Happening A lot of current flagship phones, such as those with the Z Fold 5, are equipped with two batteries that allow for faster charging that can reach 25W. It's not likely to be the case that Z Fold 6 will reach this level but it's worthwhile to mention that the present Galaxy S24 Ultra can reach 45 Watt charges, but only with Samsung's charging system.

Galaxy Z Fold 6 Review: Samsung's Most Polished Foldable | Daily Reports Online

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is the latest addition to Samsung’s expanding foldable portfolio and successor to what was considered a decent foldable smartphone from last year – the Galaxy Z Fold 5. What has changed this year? Well, on paper, not much, but plenty of refinements and the company’s go-all-in take on AI (artificial intelligence) features is something that can’t be missed. Compared to other…

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Review: A Journey from iPhone to Foldable InnovationThe Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is here, and as someone who has recently switched from being an iPhone devotee to a Samsung enthusiast, my perspective on this device is uniquely positioned. This review won't delve into every technical detail, as plenty of those exist already. Instead, I'll share my experience transitioning from the iPhone to the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra a few months ago and now to the Z Fold 6. This journey from Apple to Samsung has been fascinating, filled with new discoveries and some nostalgia for my old iPhone. So, let's explore the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and see if it has truly won me over.The Switch from iPhone to SamsungBefore diving into the Galaxy Z Fold 6, it's essential to understand my background. I was a dedicated iPhone user, deeply embedded in the Apple ecosystem. My daily life revolved around my Mac, iPad, and Apple Watch. Transitioning to Samsung wasn't just about changing phones; it was about adjusting to a new ecosystem. The S24 Ultra was my gateway into this world, and now, with the Z Fold 6, I am fully immersed.Sponsored by Banks: Protecting Your FoldableBefore we dive into the nitty-gritty of the Z Fold 6, a quick word from our sponsor, Banks. They offer a range of cases and accessories designed to protect and enhance the Z Fold 6. I have two cases from Banks: the Aurora Armor Air Case and the Montage Armor Air Case.Aurora Armor Air Case: This case is crafted from 600D Kevlar fiber, providing a sleek, minimalist design that is 0.7 mm thin and lightweight. It feels smooth in the hand and offers raised lens protection, adding a sophisticated look to the Z Fold 6.Montage Armor Air Case: Made from a blend of 600D and 1500D Kevlar fiber, this case also protects the hinge. It's lightweight, thin, and provides a comfortable grip, ensuring your phone is safe without adding bulk.Neither case covers the front of the Z Fold 6, which is a plus. Front-covering cases often interfere with screen protectors and reduce the viewing area. Banks also offers a screen protector and lens protectors, ensuring comprehensive protection for your device.Specs and Design: How Far We've ComeThe Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 boasts impressive specs that highlight how far we've come from the Z Fold 5:Processor: Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy (customized for Samsung)RAM: 12 GBWeight: 14 grams lighter than the Z Fold 5Displays: Cover display is 1 mm wider; internal display is 2.7 mm widerBezels and Hinge: Smaller bezels and a thinner hingeBrightness: 2,600 nits (up from 1,750 nits in the Z Fold 5)Colors: Silver Shadow, Pink, Navy, Black, and White (Black and White are online exclusives)Battery: Same size as the Z Fold 5, but with two extra hours of video playbackCamera: Slightly tweaked system with a 50-megapixel main cameraThe Z Fold 6 is available in 256 GB, 512 GB, and 1 TB versions, priced at £1,799, £1,899, and £2,099, respectively. Despite its high cost, the Z Fold 6 promises a premium experience.The Foldable Experience: Crease and FlatnessOne common concern with foldable phones is the crease. While it's still present in the Z Fold 6, it's less visible than in previous models. In normal use, without harsh lighting, the crease is barely noticeable. The Z Fold 6 also opens flatter than its predecessors, enhancing the overall user experience.Camera System: A Mixed BagThe camera system on the Z Fold 6 is good but not flagship-worthy. While the 50-megapixel main camera and wide-angle lens produce beautiful photos with vibrant colors, the lack of a 5x or 10x optical zoom is a drawback for content creators. The zoom capabilities of the Z Fold 6 are not on par with the iPhone 15 Pro Max or the S24 Ultra, which is a significant limitation for those who rely on their phones for photography and videography.Battery Life: Adequate but Not ExceptionalBattery life on the Z Fold 6 is decent, but it doesn't match the S24 Ultra or the iPhone. While it can last a day and a bit, it doesn't provide the two-day battery life that some flagship models offer.

For heavy users, this might be a concern.Display: Bright and ProductiveThe internal and cover displays on the Z Fold 6 are significantly brighter than those on the Z Fold 5, making them more usable in bright sunlight. The cover display, now 1 mm wider with smaller bezels, is more practical than I initially thought. It's great for one-handed use, especially when multitasking.Productivity PowerhouseOne of the standout features of the Z Fold 6 is its large internal display, which excels in productivity tasks. Whether it's emailing, working in Notion, managing social media, or browsing the web, the expansive screen offers a great experience. Samsung's software optimizations for the foldable display enhance usability, making multitasking a breeze.AI Features: Useful but Not EssentialSamsung has integrated Galaxy AI features from the S24 series into the Z Fold 6, leveraging the large internal display. These features include smart search, translation, and note assistance. While they are clever and occasionally useful, they don't significantly enhance the core smartphone experience. The fundamental aspects like camera quality, display brightness, and battery life remain more critical.Conclusion: Is the Z Fold 6 Worth It?If you own a Z Fold 5, upgrading to the Z Fold 6 might not be necessary. The improvements are more refinements than revolutionary changes. However, if you're new to foldable phones or looking to switch from another device, the Z Fold 6 offers a compelling experience. It combines a premium design, excellent display, and solid performance.The camera system, while good, may not satisfy those who need advanced zoom capabilities. Battery life is adequate, but not exceptional. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Z Fold 6 feels like a premium device, justifying its high price tag.Gadget Kings PRS: Your Go-To for Phone RepairsIf you own a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 or any other smartphone and need repairs, Gadget Kings PRS is your best option.
