Galaxy Z Fold 6 Specs and Features

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is_slightly_ larger than its predecessor, but it’s unlikely you’ll notice. The main display remains at 7.6 inches, but the cover screen has grown by one-tenth of an inch to 6.3 inches. Both displays have a 120Hz variable refresh rate. The phone also weighs a little less, coming in at just under 240g vs. the 253g Fold 5.

Unlike the Z Flip 6, which got a larger battery this year, the Z Fold 6’s is the same as its predecessor’s: 4,400mAh. That’s still a pretty big battery, and with a more efficient processor–the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3–the Fold 6 should see improved battery life even without more capacity.

As for camera specs, there’s a 4MP under-display lens and a 10MP option for selfies. Here’s the rear triple camera setup:

50MP wide
12MP ultra-wide
10MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom and 30x space zoom
