As always, our top priority is to deliver an incredible product experience, and these devices do so in droves, while taking a leap forward in what’s possible with a foldable phone. With this sixth generation of foldables, we’ve further enhanced the experience and boosted performance, setting a new standard of mobile innovation. It’s our best foldable series yet – and it’s enhanced by new Galaxy AI1 capabilities.
Read on to learn why a combination of hardware improvements, new features powered by Galaxy AI that are even better on a foldable phone, and opportunities to get the most value out of your existing phone make this the perfect time to switch to the new Galaxy Z series phone.
Reason 1: Our most durable Z series phones yet
We’ve relentlessly fine-tuned the Z series’ features, functionality, and form – and the result is the most durable and refined Z series devices yet. The Galaxy Z Flip6 and Galaxy Z Fold6 are engineered to give you peace of mind and stand the test of time. Four key areas maximize your device’s durability:
Hinge enhancements: We’ve further enhanced durability with an advanced internal design that better distributes the shock from external impacts, building on the innovative Dual Rail Hinge structure developed for the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Galaxy Z Flip5.
Improved screen crease: Composed of multiple layers, including a protective layer and Ultra Thin Glass, the Samsung foldable display has been refined for enhanced durability and performance. We’ve also introduced a new Shear Thickening Fluid into the protective layer to increase resistance against potential impact. On the Galaxy Z Flip6, the Ultra Thin Glass thickness has been increased for improved force protection. And because accidents happen even to the most durable devices, Galaxy Z Assurance2 allows you to get your screen replaced for just $200 or receive a one-time free screen protector replacement.
A strong exterior: The Galaxy Z series is constructed with some of the strongest external materials available. Tougher Armor Aluminum3 frames and hinge covers protect against fumbles and drops, while Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 24 shields your new devices from external shocks.
Reason 2: Unmatched value from your existing phone
The Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 are setting a new standard of mobile innovation, delivering impressive value and power. And to make our most premium devices more accessible than ever before, we continue to work with our carriers and retailers to offer competitive trade-in deals.
When you pre-order a Galaxy Z Flip6 phone, you can potentially receive up to $1,000 in trade-in value for your eligible device, significantly reducing the cost of your new phone. For the Galaxy Z Fold6, the trade-in offer goes up to $1,200. These substantial trade-in values mean that, depending on your eligible device, you could get Samsung’s newest foldable phones at a fraction of their retail price, or in some cases, nearly free of charge.
Reason 3: New features and upgrades – powered by the next chapter of Galaxy AI
The Z series offers a range of AI-powered features and tools so that you have more opportunities to harness AI capabilities in all that you do. This is powerful, intelligent, and durable foldable technology – to help you usher in a new era of communication, productivity, and creativity. Here’s just a few of the many exciting new features and upgrades you’ll find on your new Z series phone.
