The beloved Galaxy Z Flip is back as the Galaxy Z Flip6. After six generations of foldable innovation, the powerful pocket-sized smartphone is more versatile than ever before — with a sleek design and extensive Galaxy AI capabilities to deliver a mobile experience that puts the user’s creativity front and centre.
This versatility stems from unsurpassed technology and a design that carefully considers users’ lifestyles and needs. Samsung Newsroom took the Galaxy Z Flip6 apart for a better look at each of its components.
1. Main Display
When users unfold the device, they see a Dynamic AMOLED screen with unrivaled picture quality. Photos, videos, games and other content come to life in vivid detail. The main display must be able to resist external shocks and restore its original form when the device is unfolded. Those functions have been enhanced on the Galaxy Z Flip6 with new materials and design techniques that have both durability and flexibility.
Notably, the crease along the folded area is much less pronounced in the Galaxy Z Flip6 compared to earlier models. Besides being stacked with protective film and a more flexible protective layer, the Galaxy Z Flip6’s main display also boasts a more resilient Ultra Thin Glass (UTG) — having increased in thickness by 60%. In addition, high-efficiency organic materials and a new coating technique on the panel with lower reflectivity maximise usage time and make the screen easier to see when outside with a peak brightness that has been boosted from 1,750 to 2,600nits.
2. Hinge
Samsung’s top-notch proprietary hinge technology is what gives the Galaxy Z Flip6 its slim design and a smooth folding experience. When the device is folded, four drive shafts fold the display into the shape of a water droplet and keep the two screens together for a seamless fit. The integrated hinge module features a symmetrical dual-rail structure that evenly distributes external shocks. The device can be used while fully folded and unfolded, or unfolded at various angles between 75 and 115 degrees. FlexMode allows users to prop up the phone at any angle to watch videos or take photos with no need for a phone stand or tripod.
3. Hinge Cover and Case
The Galaxy Z Flip’s hinge cover and case are made of Enhanced Armor Aluminum, making them more resistant to scratches and damage. The luxurious colours that elevate the foldable’s aesthetics come from an optimised anodising coating process, and the use of recycled materials in the device captures the company’s concern for the environment.
4. Vapour Chamber
The Galaxy Z Flip6 is the first in the Z Flip series to feature a vapour chamber. Vapour chambers diffuse heat to prevent smartphones from overheating. The larger the vapour chamber, the more effectively it can dissipate heat and allow devices to maintain stable performance. Samsung managed to include a large vapour chamber in the foldable.
5. Main Battery
The Galaxy Z Flip6 has a battery capacity of 4,000mAh. Samsung used a molding technique on the main battery protection circuits to minimise the size of the protection board, making it possible to increase battery capacity by maximising the space inside the device.
6. Sub Battery
More energy-dense than before, the sub battery improves the Galaxy Z Flip6’s battery performance even further.
7. Main PBA
The brain of a smartphone, the printed board assembly (PBA) houses core parts such as the memory and processor. The Galaxy Z Flip6 is the Galaxy Z Flip series’ most compact model by applying a stacked main PBA with highly integrated parts.
8. Sub PBA
The sub PBA, located on the charging terminal and speaker side, supports various radio frequency bands and the internationally standardised USB Type-C connector. It is also equipped with a low-noise Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) microphone that facilitates accurate speech recognition.
9. Back Cover
The back cover forms the front and back sides of the Galaxy Z Flip6 when it is folded. Incorporated into it is Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus 2® from Corning — a world leader in glass science and long-standing partner of Samsung.
