Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Z Flip 6 to Feature AI
The Samsung executive mentioned that the company intends to further enhance the Galaxy AI experience for its upcoming foldable devices—namely, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. He noted, “Our foldables are the most versatile and flexible form factor in the Samsung Galaxy lineup, and with Galaxy AI, they will unlock all new possibilities.”
Hybrid AI Approach
Samsung aims to transform mobile experiences with a hybrid AI approach designed to be both practical and dependable to meet consumer expectations.

Upcoming Launch
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 are rumored to be unveiled on July 10, alongside the Galaxy Watch 7 series, Galaxy Buds 3 TWS earphones, and the Galaxy Ring. More official details about the Unpacked event are expected in the coming weeks.
