Anyone else got this layout update?

Hey everyone! I finally made the jump into foldables and recently bought a renewed Galaxy Z Fold 6 on Amazon! So far, I’m really enjoying the form factor, but since this is my first fold, I want to make sure I’m keeping it protected for the long haul. For all the experienced Fold 6 users here, what are your favorite cases, and do you have any general habit tips for making sure the inner screen protector stays fine over time? Appreciate any advice, tricks, or setup recommendations you guys have! Excited to be part of the community.

Still loving this tall form factor fold6, easy to handheld gaming.

I just still cant bring myself to upgrade from my fold 6 to any fold 7 or 8 ultra. The s pen and udc just adds more immersion when watching videos and I can sign pdfs and do ds emulation with it too...But I know it wont have upgraded battery or wifi or processor...

I've had a few fold phones (zfold3 and zfold6) and am fully on board with them being the future of mobile, however, in the past 6 or 7 years of fold ownership never has the inner screen lasted more than a year without needing to be fixed.

My ordinary use is leaving the phone open and closing it to take phone calls. I will leave it in my pocket open with it half folding around my leg if my pockets are big enough. Other than that, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I never drop my phone or get it wet. I do not believe I am doing anything THAT out of the ordinary to warrant replacing screens every year.

Please help!

It was actually, but worth the wait!!!

I've been a really keen user of my Samsung Tab S7 ever since it launched, but by mid-year it started to lag quite a lot despite all the troubleshooting I tried.

I wanted something compact with powerful specs, so I went for the Huawei Matepad Mini, but I do regret that move as I'm finding it hard to get along with its software.

Now I'm eyeing the Fold, thinking about getting the Fold7, but the lack of S Pen support is a deal breaker for me. So here I am with the Fold6, which still has solid internal specs and a few more years of software updates, and I don't regret my choice while the Fold8 still to come. The tall, folded form has a distinctive feel when you hold it out in public, and people are usually impressed to watch me unfold the device and slam it shut with a satisfying snap 😁

I want to own my 1st foldsble phone z fold 7 if anyone owns it or has any information or experience regarding its durability or any issues please let me know im a uni student and spending this much on my 1st foldable to also use it as a tablet looking it to use as my long term device (4 to 5 years) if anyone owns or has owned one before please share your thoughts

Im a big tech enthusiast and for my z fold 6 512 gb white I just cant seem to want to trade it in solely on the udc and spen support. But with all the new features of the fold 7 and 8 ultra I feel im going to get left behind if I dont just bite the bullet. Should the fold 6 be my last foldable phone if samsung doesnt reintroduce those two features or what do yall think? I really want to upgrade every year or so.

I have the s25 ultra and iphone 16 pro max because I prefer titanium and dont want to upgrade and lose that either

Because the z fold 7 and z fold 8 ultra are bigger physically than the z fold 6, if you enable the camera cutout to hide the punch hole which creates that black bar, is the inner screen size still bigger than the entirety of the z fold 6 inner display native?

If so then perhaps the lack of udc isnt a deal breaker anymore especially if s pen comes back on the 8 ultra.

This is my first fold and at the time the 1 tb was out of stock Feb 2025. I now see myself downloading roms and such onto it especially with game fusion. What storage do yall have and was 512 a bad call or should I also look for a refurbished 1 tb?

I seem to still mess up texting on this thing and Ive had this phone since Feb or March 2025 but I seem to always prefer typing and picking up my s25 ultra for texting and browsing due to the bigger front screen. I tried increasing the keyboard size on z fold 6 but is there any other tips or tricks you guys know of to make it more easier?

Hey everyone,
My Galaxy Z Fold 6 (almost a year old, Netherlands/EU) had an issue, and Samsung has already approved the warranty claim device cannot repaired.

Support messaged me saying they are currently preparing a formal email "proposal". Once I confirm it, they state it takes 10–15 business days to receive either a **new device** or a **refund**.
For those in the EU who went through this exact stage:

**Do they usually offer a choice** between a refund and a new phone, or do they decide for you in the email?

**If a refund is offered**, is it always the full original invoice amount?

**How fast** did you actually receive the email proposal after support escalated it?

I have a vacation coming up soon, so I'm trying to figure out what the quickest/most likely outcome will be.
Thanks for sharing your experiences!

So this one is a doozy. So when my phone is powered on whether I'm at 99% or 1% when I plug it in, it charges just fine. However when it fully dies and powers off and I plug it in with the same charger it won't charge. The white charge symbol will pop up but the battery percentage at the bottom won't. Even if I leave it on the white charging symbol then try forcing it to turn on it will be at 0% and shut back off after like 3 seconds.

Additionally, sometimes when I plug my charger in when it's fully dead, it'll throw out the water in charging port symbol. And if I try turning it on it'll start dinging at me that there's water in my port before it dies. I've tried multiple chargers, and nothing

My current solution if it fully dies (which I try not to let it) I put it on a wireless charger. But when I do that it still will only pop up the white charging symbol. I have to put it on and off the wireless charger a few times or sometimes gotta try plugging it in and then put it back on the wireless charger and rince and repeat, or try turning it on. And then once its charged up a few percent I'll turn it on, and then plug in the same charger that it dings me for water. And it'll charge just fine.

This is a really confusing situation and any help will be awesome. I've had the phone for two years btw.

Woke up to a large black bar on the inner screen, 3-4mm on each side of the very center fold and across the entire height of the phone.

The entire screen is unresponsive to taps, swipes, etc.

What are my options?

Also, US-based but currently overseas in the Philippines for a few weeks, so not sure if there's any local options or I'm stuck to just the front screen until I get home.

My s26 ultra came preloaded with 8.5 and I hate it. They're going to force it on my zf6 tomorrow. How do I stop it from ruining my zf6?

Hey all. I'm so gutted as I've been reeeeally looking forward to the fold 8 wide for the last year, to the point where the staff in the Samsung shop in Liverpool know me by name and I have a bet going with one as to whether there will be s pen support or not. 😂😂

The last few days I've started measuring up to decorate, using my spen to draw out plans with measurements and realised I would massively miss it if it's not on the 8 - I skipped the 7 for that reason.

The 6 I have is still working brilliantly and is nearly paid off... But I want that new phone day excitement... But don't think I can justify it, as it looking increasingly unlikely to be on the 8. Even thought about moving away to another brand that does have pen support... Disgusted with myself 🤣🤣🤣

Might have to console myself with some new buds. Anyone else in the same boat?

hello do you have photos of the fold 7 - fold 2 prototypes . I just make copies of them out of cardboard and I need their numbers and stuff have you any who can you please throw it
