The Galaxy Z Flip6 has the same 3.4-inch Super AMOLED 60Hz Flex Window cover screen. The phone features a bold camera ring design that follows the phone’s back color, available in Blue, Yellow, Silver Shadow, and Mint.
Speaking of its cameras, the Galaxy Z Flip6 now features a 50MP main camera with Auto Zoom, accompanied by a 12MP ultra-wide camera. The phone also has a camcorder mode that provides you smooth zooming experience while recording videos.
The Flex Window has now been enhanced, offering interactive and generative wallpapers, suggested replies, an interpreter with conversation mode, more widgets, and the ability to display multiple widgets and apps on a single screen.
The phone comes with an IP48 rating for water and dust resistance. It still features the same dual-rail hinge, enhanced armor aluminum, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, and a protective layer. It is also powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor for Galaxy with 12GB RAM and two storage options — 256GB and 512GB.
The phone still has the same 6.7-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Infinity Flex Display with an adaptive 120Hz refresh rate. One noticeable difference is the crease now feels flatter when I’m scrolling my finger around, which makes the overall experience more pleasant.
The Galaxy AI has also been enhanced on Z Flip6. Maximizing its unique dual-screen form factor, Interpreter comes with a new conversation mode that enables both parties to conveniently view translations on the main and cover screens for more natural interactions. It also offers one-way translation, so you can easily understand when listening during lectures or any other type of presentation. Live Translate, which translates phone calls directly on your device in real time, is also now being extended beyond Samsung’s own native calling app to a selection of popular third-party apps.
From capturing to editing to viewing, the AI-powered ProVisual Engine on the Galaxy Z Flip6 takes your creativity to the next level. The advanced editing experience with Photo Assist on the screen helps to effortlessly create professional-grade content. Portrait Studio creates a variety of different portrait styles such as 3D cartoon or watercolor for more creative possibilities. And if you want to enjoy every second with a more detailed view, Instant Slow-mo allows you to instantly slow a video by generating additional frames while maintaining a smooth viewing experience. You also have the option of saving or directly sharing your videos with friends and family so they can enjoy them as well.
Available in Blue, Yellow, Silver Shadow, and Mint colors, the Galaxy Z Flip6 is now available for pre-order starting today, 10 July 2024, with general availability starting 24 July 2024.
- 256GB: RM4,999
