The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 has been officially launched alongside the Z Fold 6. This clamshell foldable smartphone doesn't introduce any major changes but includes some hardware upgrades. Essentially, it appears that the South Korean company has refreshed last year’s model with updated internals and added AI features. Even so, the latest-generation clamshell foldable phone is set to compete with the likes of the Motorola Razr 50 series and other similar models in the market.

The main Dynamic AMOLED screen of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is 6.7 inches with an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The outer cover AMOLED screen measures 3.4 inches with a 720 x 748 pixels resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate. Samsung has retained the folder-icon-like design for the secondary screen, which offers AI-assisted functions like suggested replies without needing to unfold the device.
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 features a side-mounted fingerprint scanner integrated into the power button. Like the Z Fold 6, this clamshell phone comes with a dual rail hinge structure, Armor Aluminum, and Gorilla Glass Victus 2, making it highly durable. It also boasts IP48 dust and water resistance.

Internally, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor with ray tracing capabilities. It offers up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage.
