Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 5G (512GB, Silver Shadow)

This is the first flip phone I've had in around 20 years, and its been a revelation. This is a whole new way of using a mobile phone and it's fantastic! The outside screen is brilliant for seeing notifications, as well as useful widgets and information direct at your fingertips without needing to open the phone - a glance is all it takes. There are various widgets available, as well as certain apps (I'm sure more will be added in due course) which work directly on the outside screen which has changed the way I use my mobile, its simply brilliant.Both screens are nice and bright, being easy to see in any light conditions. The main screen is so vivid and clear, it makes watching video a joy, especially with the wider aspect ratio.The phone is responsive, quick and ... MoreThis is the first flip phone I've had in around 20 years, and its been a revelation.

There are various widgets available, as well as certain apps (I'm sure more will be added in due course) which work directly on the outside screen which has changed the way I use my mobile, its simply brilliant.Both screens are nice and bright, being easy to see in any light conditions. The main screen is so vivid and clear, it makes watching video a joy, especially with the wider aspect ratio.The phone is responsive, quick and smooth no matter what you do with it, and it doesn't matter how many apps you have running, it doesn't slow down or struggle at all. It was also a surprise that the phone also doesn't get hot when its working hard, Samsung's new cooling system definitely works.Samsung's software is better than ever, with the familiar and easy to use interface and UI, however it is now turbocharged with the addition of the AI tools. Whether it be circle to search, photo editing tools or the simply fantastic translation tools, they are easy to use and work just as you'd want. I have to admit that prior to using them, I wasn't sure how much I would use the AI tools, however I can see them being extremely useful in a myriad of situations.The cameras are simply stunning, producing clear and detailed shots with true to life colours and tones. Add in the aforementioned AI tools and it is simply the best camera phone I have ever had.The phone seems solidly made and feels very well built. I always put a cover on my phones, but I'm not actually sure this one needs it as it feels quite rugged.I've not really had the phone long enough yet to be able to give a definitive verdict on the battery life, but so far it seems to be coping extremely well and I haven't had any battery anxiety at all. Samsung have put a bigger battery in this model than previous versions, and even when I've been using it heavily during initial setup and over the period I've had it, it has not disappointed, and has lasted extremely well.The only little niggle I have is that the charging speed is only 25w (15w if using wireless), which is a little slow by today's standards, however its only a minor inconvenience

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 has a small and compact design, the new flat edges are great very comfortable grip, looks beautiful and has a bright display, a long lasting battery life, definitely a powerful performance with cooling chamber, improved colours, balance in photos, useful features.I found the Z Flip 6 display to be bright and vivid, even with the Natural display mode elected. Colors really pop, blacks are rich and deep, and any text is crisp and sharp.When I’m outdoors in sun or in somewhere bright light the display is still easy to see. Scrolling and transitions are great,I’ve used my Z Flip 6 in the past couple of days for my daily tasks - checking personal emails, various social media accounts, reading and watching videos, and snapping photos - there is ... MoreSamsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 has a small and compact design, the new flat edges are great very comfortable grip, looks beautiful and has a bright display, a long lasting battery life, definitely a powerful performance with cooling chamber, improved colours, balance in photos, useful features.I found the Z Flip 6 display to be bright and vivid, even with the Natural display mode elected.

The Z Flip 6 never got too hot to use when doing normal tasks or paying games thanks to the cooling chamber.My favourite and useful feature is Galaxy AI feature is the Generative Edit tool , turning pictures into emojis.This can remove unwanted and distracting elements from photos, or you can use it to resize and straighten out images and fill out the blanks. Results are really good!Chat Assist does have a handy grammar and spell check that is more useful than making yourself sound like an automated robot trying to be a human being. Note Assist isalso a feature to help format and summarise your notes.A 50MP main camera, a 12MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and a The front is a 10MP selfie camera - all realistic, accurate and vivid, sharpness, texture, fine details.The battery last one day and half for medium usage.Overall, definitely worth the investment and a great phone.

I have now had the joy of testing the Samsung flip four five and six. The fifth and 6th generation of this phone was certainly a leap from the fourth, however as others have likely said before the difference between the fifth and sixth generation of this phone is quite small.Externally the changes are very small, with things like rings around the cameras that matches the color of the phone and improved tempered glass protection. Additionally, this version is not only water resistant but dust resistant as well.Internally this sixth generation of the flip as a new processor and increased memory meaning it does everyday tasks much fast er than its predecessor, additionally the AI features on this phone I'm much better.

Having used it now for a number of days I found the user experience to be better than the fifth generation. The main reason for this view is the lag time when moving between apps is almost non-existent. The cover screen is also great on this version and allows you to use it for things like texting and using well-known messaging apps. If you were to ask me who I would recommend this phone for I would struggle to tell you; not because I don't think it has an audience or a market but rather because I can see it appealing to lots of different people. Additionally if you happen to have a Samsung smartwatch you will find that you can use these to in partnership for all sorts of things. My favourite personally is that you can turn your SmartWatch into a display for your camera and a remote button for it. So, for example you could place your phone at a right angle given that it flips and place it on a table, you and others then stand a distance away checking in the screen of your Samsung smartwatch that you are all in frame and then set off the time by pressing the button on your SmartWatch. Your phone will then take the picture for you. If you don't happen to have a Samsung smart watch and you can still be creative with your camera by using the cover screen as a mirror for selfies so that you all the person you're photographing can see what they look like before you take their picture. It's great little features like this that make this phone really good.
