Samsung makes some seriously good phones, and you can see the proof in its current lineup, which includes not only the flagship Galaxy S24 but also the foldable Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6. Both of the Z series phones offer a bit more versatility thanks to their designs, which approach the foldable concept in two different ways. While CNET editor Lisa Eadicicco loved a lot of things about the Z Fold 6, she said in her review that the biggest downside is the price, which starts at $1,900. You can save some big money on one using the deals below though.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 has a 7.6-inch AMOLED main screen and a 6.3-inch AMOLED cover screen. It also sports the upgraded Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip for fast processing. The array of cameras matches what we saw in the previous generation, with the Z Fold 6 sporting a 10-megapixel cover camera, a 4-megapixel under-display camera and a rear triple-camera setup, with a 12-megapixel ultrawide camera, a 50-megapixel wide-angle camera and a 10-megapixel telephoto camera.
