The hinges have been redesigned for durability, and the crease on both phones has been improved compared to the previous models. Last but certainly not least, both the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 come equipped with Galaxy AI, bringing all the impressive AI features we’ve come to appreciate from the Galaxy S24 series.
Samsung has already given us a glimpse of what we can expect regarding trade-in deals with the pre-order promotions, but fret not. These aren't done and dusted now that the phones are available for purchase. You can save a lot of cash with these trade-in deals, and Samsung will also double the storage for the Z Flip 6 for free for a limited time. This means you can get the 512GB version for the same price as the 256GB model.
Here are the best trade-in deals available right now:
Galaxy Z Fold 6 512 GB: $699.99 with trade-in, $1,899.99 w/o trade-in
Galaxy Z Flip 6 512 GB: $449.99 with trade-in, $1,099 w/o trade-in
But, long story short, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 come with the latest and greatest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset under the hood, specifically tuned "for Galaxy." This means the silicon is slightly faster compared to a regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.

The question you should be asking yourselves, of course, is: do I need a fold or a flip type of foldable (unless you want to have both, which is absolutely fine)? There are some differences between these two, the main one being the form factor.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 features a wider external display—a 6.3-inch screen with a 22.1:9 aspect ratio—providing a more conventional smartphone experience compared to the previously narrow design. The main internal screen is 7.6 inches, nearly square, with a 20.9:18 aspect ratio, so you're getting a tablet-like experience when you unfold the phone.
On the other hand, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 boasts a clamshell design, making it a compact device when folded, with a 3.4-inch cover screen that can now do more things. When you unfold this clamshell beauty, you get a regular phone in size with a 6.7-inch main screen and a pretty thin footprint. There are other differences, so we've included a short specs comparison below for all you number nerds out there.
