At the company’s Wednesday launch event in Paris, Samsung unveiled its most recent generation of foldable gadgets. With Android 14 out of the box, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is powered by the most recent Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. However, Vivo now has a very strong competitor in the foldable market with the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro, so Samsung isn’t the only company in this market.

The proprietary Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform, created only for Samsung, powers the Galaxy Z Fold 6.
The gadget has an external 6.3-inch HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a pixel density of 410ppi and a resolution of 968×2,376. A 7.6-inch QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Infinity Flex display with a pixel density of 374ppi and a resolution of 1,856×2,160 is used as the inner screen. Smooth and effective performance is provided by the adaptive refresh rate that both panels support, which ranges from 1Hz to 120Hz.
It has three cameras on its back: a 12-megapixel ultra-wide angle camera with a 123-degree field of view, a 10-megapixel telephoto camera, and a 50-megapixel wide angle camera with dual pixel autofocus and optical image stabilisation. In addition, there is a 4-megapixel under-display camera on the inner screen and a 10-megapixel front camera on the cover display.
The foldables are powered by Android 14 with Samsung’s One UI 6.1.1 on top. In order to guarantee long-term software support and security, Samsung has promised to give both devices seven years of Android OS and security updates.
The phone sports a 10 megapixel front camera and a 4 megapixel rear camera. Three cameras—a 12 MP Ultra Wide, a 50 MP wide-angle with a 2x optical quality zoom, and a 10 MP telephoto with a 3x optical zoom—are located on the back of the device.
