Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 Is Fertile Ground for Artificial Intelligence
There may be “nothing new under the sun,” but there are better things out there. And the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 could be one of them. Since the Korean manufacturer launched its first Flip in 2020, Everything has changed a lotThis model did not have an external screen, it had two cameras (10 and 12 MP), a 3300 mAh battery and 256 GB of memory.
The Galazy Z Flip 6 does better, with a 3.4-inch external screen, double the storage, wireless charging, and a larger battery 4000 mAh and the cameras have also adapted to the times: one is 12, the other is 50 MP.. And all this with another 6 grams. But there are more details.
The hinge has improved significantly in both durability and the space left when folded. This prevents dust from getting in and damaging the screen. In fact, when folded, it looks like a pocket wallet. In this sense, It would seem that there is no room for improvement.
Cameras? They’ve improved, and the Galaxy Z Flip has a 50-megapixel main sensor (up from 12 in the previous generation), making it similar in capabilities to the S24. This suggests that Samsung is making a big bet when it comes to photographyespecially for a folding one, and especially considering that those who choose these models generally prioritize design, comfort, and other factors that we will see later, rather than photographs.
However, the cameras work more than adequately. They don’t go to the podium of the best cameras smartphones, they probably won’t make the top 10, but They are challenging for leadership in the folding market.. Bottom line: If photography is an absolute priority, this is not your phone. Now, if you want to take good photos, design is important, and you want to take advantage of AI… this is one of the best candidates.
Very good news – Z Flip 6. comes with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3the most advanced from Qualcomm. If you add to this the memory (RAM and storage), it is one of the now called flagships or the top of the line. It is also the first generation to have a vapor chamber. The good side is that the battery will last a little longer thanks to the chip and the vapor chamber, the bad side is that fast charging is not so fast: 25W.
The most interesting thing about this smartphone is what Samsung did with its screens, hinge, microchip and artificial intelligence. In short, it’s AI in your pocket. The Z Flip 6 has a personal assistant thanks to artificial intelligence. in many sections. If we call a person who speaks another language, it translates in real time for both parties. The same thing if we listen to a conference or a class in another language. There is a chat assistant that can write emails in different styles (to a friend, a client, our boss…), and also create avatars or images in different modes.
The best part about this is that the possibilities are endless and (almost) not limited by hardware, as future updates and apps will open up new usage possibilities.
Verdict: This is without a doubt one of the first mobile phones that justifies AI with convincing arguments. The fact that it is foldable and has a very good external screen makes it even more convenient. Price: from 1209 euros.
