The Samsung Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Ultra are members of the same 2024 flagship smartphone family, but they look and feel surprisingly different. So which of these two phones is the best for you?

Having posted our reviews and spent a fair amount of time with both phones, we think we’re in a pretty good position to help you decide. While we have a definitive answer for which phone is objectively the better of the two, we also have a few noteworthy caveats to consider depending on your specific tastes and needs.

While one phone clearly outperforms the other by all key metrics, there are a couple of trade-offs to consider before you hit that ‘Buy’ button. Indeed, we would go so far as to suggest that the best phone here isn’t in fact the best for most people.

Before we dive in that particular conundrum, allow us to present you with the spec lists for the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Ultra>>>EB-BS926ABY Battery for Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus 5G

Samsung Galaxy S24 vs Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: design and display

The Galaxy Ultra line has been on its own separate design path for some time now, and this year’s model is no different. The Galaxy S24 is a smaller device with rounded corners, while the Galaxy S24 Ultra is huge and pointed. The Ultra is a good 15mm taller, 8mm wider, and 1mm thicker. It also weighs 65g more, which is a big difference.

This means that only the Galaxy S24 can be used one-handed. The Galaxy S24 Ultra demands all of your attention and both of your hands, as befits its power-user focus.

Both of these phones look quite a lot like their predecessors, albeit with some notable tweaks. The Galaxy S24 this year loses the curved rim for a flatter aluminum finish, making it look rather like the iPhone 15. The Galaxy S24 Ultra, meanwhile, switches to a new, more premium titanium alloy material for its frame, but otherwise essentially retains the look of previous Ultra phones. That means a flat top and bottom edge, but subtly rounded sides.

Besides having a tougher frame, the Galaxy S24 Ultra also features Gorilla Armor glass, which is more scratch-resistant than the Galaxy S24’s Gorilla Glass Victus 2. Both phones are IP68 rated though, which means they’re equally dust and water-resistant.

The Galaxy S24 benefits from reduced screen bezel sizes, while the Galaxy S24 Ultra has lost any sense of curvature and has completely flattened out its display.

On the color front, the Samsung Galaxy S24 comes in Onyx Black, Marble Grey, Cobalt Violet, Amber Yellow, Jade Green, Sandstone Orange, Sapphire Blue. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S24 Ultra leans into its new rugged material with Titanium Black, Titanium Gray, Titanium Violet, Titanium Yellow, Titanium Blue, Titanium Green, and Titanium Orange options.

One other major design difference, of course, is the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s bundled-in S Pen stylus. It continues to be a powerful tool for both productivity and artistic output, and it’s something you don’t get with the Galaxy S24.

What with the huge size difference, it should come as no surprise to learn that the Galaxy S24 Ultra display is much bigger than its sibling’s, though that gap has narrowed slightly. The Galaxy S24 screen has increased a little to 6.2-inches (up from 6.1-inches), while the Galaxy S24 Ultra screen has held fast at 6.8-inches.

There’s a considerable resolution disparity here, with the Galaxy S24 going with FHD+ and the Ultra model maxing out at QHD+. The smaller size of the Galaxy S24 screen helps negate that advantage, though.

Both screens can get to 2,600 nits in peak scenarios, which is extremely bright. The Galaxy S24 display has also closed the gap on the Galaxy S24 Ultra in offering LTPO panel technology, meaning it can scale between a 1 and 120Hz refresh rate as necessary, making it more energy-efficient.

Ultimately, the Galaxy S24 Ultra has what could be the best display of any phone on the market. It comfortably wins this round against its (still impressive) little brother on size and sharpness alone.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy S24 : cameras

There’s really no contest when it comes to camera quality, with the Galaxy S24 Ultra beating the Galaxy S24 in almost every single department. The Ultra has four cameras to the S24’s three, for a start, with an extra 50MP 5x telephoto providing far greater zoom flexibility.

With the Galaxy S24, you’re getting a 1/1.56″ 50MP main sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide, and a 10MP 3x telephoto.

As for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, you’re getting a significantly larger and sharper 1/1.3″ 200MP main sensor, a similar-looking 12MP ultra-wide camera, a larger 10MP 3x telephoto, and an all-new 50MP 5x periscope telephoto.

Samsung Galaxy S24 vs Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: performance and software

We found both of these models to be extremely rapid, even beating the mighty iPhone 15 Pro Max in many respects. In both cases you can run high-end games at maximum graphical settings with rock solid 60 frames-per-second frame rates, run multiple windows in Samsung DeX, and watch your photo edits happen in real-time in Adobe Lightroom.

However, if you’re anywhere else in the world, the Galaxy S24 Ultra holds a clear performance advantage. This is because Samsung has opted to supply its own Exynos 2400 processor for the so-called international model of the Galaxy S24. It has stuck with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 on the international model.

As numerous benchmark tests have shown, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 has a clear performance advantage over the Exynos 2400, particularly when it comes to the GPU. You won’t notice this performance difference in general use, as both of these phones are way faster than they need to be.

On the one hand, the Ultra technically has the greater performance headroom. On the other hand, the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s chip is having to push around more pixels on that QHD+ display, which will at least partially nullify that GPU advantage on the International model.

You get more and greater storage options with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which comes in 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB variants. With the Galaxy S24, there’s just the 128GB and 256GB options in most regions. Australia also has access to a 512GB model, which would have been a nice option to have had elsewhere.

While there are hardware differences, these two phones run practically identical software in One UI 6.1 on top of Android 14. 
That includes access to Samsung’s all-new AI features, which are a constant across both phones. Once you locate these options, you’ll find that they’re a mix of the magical (AI call translation) and the somewhat disappointing (Voice Recorder transcripts), but it’s good that there’s parity between the Galaxy S24 Ultra and Galaxy S24 at least.

Samsung Galaxy S24 vs Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: battery life

The Galaxy S24 Ultra has a 5,000mAh battery, which is way bigger than the Galaxy S24’s 4,000mAh cell. Of course, the bigger phone also features a larger, sharper display, so some of that extra capacity is accounted for.

Even so, the Galaxy S24 Ultra has the better stamina of the two. You’ll struggle to find a smartphone that lasts as long on a single charge as Samsung’s flagship. It outlasted both the iPhone 15 Pro Max and last year’s Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra by a couple of hours in our 5G web browsing test.

That’s not to say that the Galaxy S24 has poor battery life. It’s more than capable of lasting a full day of fairly intensive usage, which is a great result for such a compact phone. But the Galaxy S24 Ultra could well see you through a second day as well.

Samsung’s larger, more expensive phone also charges a little faster. With 45W wired charging support, it’ll get to 65% in around 30 minutes. In the case of the Galaxy S24, with its 25W charging support, it’ll get to 50% in the same time. Neither is the fastest within their weight class, and you’ll need to supply your own charging brick for both.

On the plus side, both phones support 15W wireless charging, as well as 4.5W reverse wireless charging, which is always a welcome provision.

Samsung Galaxy S24 vs Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: verdict

The Galaxy S24 Ultra is the company’s all-singing, all-dancing everything-phone, and a power-user’s dream. If money’s no object and you demand the very best, it’s already in the conversation for the best phone on the market, let alone the best Samsung phone.

Its camera system is the most comprehensive around, with the clincher being its phenomenal zoom capabilities. Meanwhile, there is no phone with a better display than the Ultra’s. Performance is unimpeachable wherever you are in the world, and its battery life is also among the best.

The Galaxy S24 is objectively an inferior phone. However, we’d still suggest that it’s a better buy for most people. It’s compact yet powerful, has a more than capable camera system, a fabulous display, and solid battery life. While we’re starting to have some real issues with Samsung’s congested software, in a straight comparison these two phones have identical UIs and access to the same novel AI features.

Choose the Galaxy S24 Ultra if you’re after the all-singing, all dancing everything-phone with the very best specs. This one is for the power user who spends large chunks of their day on their phone, consuming swathes of media when they’re not getting things done.

Go for the Galaxy S24 if you’re after something significantly smaller and cheaper. It’s ideal for the more casual phone user looking for a compact and classy phone that won’t stretch the pocket in any sense.

Verdict 

Pros

• +Durable design
• +Excellent low light camera performance
• +Speedy performance
• +New Galaxy AI features

Cons

• -Costs $100 more
• -Battery life could be better

Samsung adds new Galaxy AI features, a larger battery, and a faster processor to offset the Galaxy Z Flip 6’s higher cost, but the flip phone sSamsung ruled the flip-style phone space for years with its Z Flip devices.

Obviously, all the usual upgrades are in tow with this charming little flippable, like its new 50MP main camera, more durable design, and more functional FlexWindow display. These hardware changes are good, but they’re supplemented by the same Galaxy AI features I found helpful in saving me time with the Galaxy S24 Ultra — plus a few new AI capabilities. If that’s not enough, there’s a much bigger emphasis on personalizing the Galaxy Z Flip 6.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 : Design

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 comes in four different colors

At first glance, it doesn’t look like much has changed with the design of the Galaxy Z Flip 6, which sports a familiar trim and aesthetic as last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 5. The phone remains incredibly compact when closed, and its Armor aluminum frame gives the Flip a solid feel in the hand.

However, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is not as ergonomic as I’d like because of its flatter edges. The only visible difference with the design this time around is how the outlines of the camera lenses are accented by the same paint job as the phone, giving the phone a much more pleasing contrast.

Speaking of trims, I really like the pastel-like colors Samsung’s using for the Galaxy Z Flip 6 — like my blue colored review unit. It’s better made, too, with a matte finish that prevents smudges and fingerprints from dirtying up the Z Flip 6.

Samsung did increase the Flip 6’s durability with a new dual rail hinge design, giving the phone a more responsive feel whenever I close it. More importantly, however, the crease in the middle of the phone is much more subdued. In fact, I’d argue it’s less noticeable than the Razr Plus 2024’s crease.

On another note, I’m delighted by the dose of personalization that’s added to the Flip 6 when it’s paired with the new FlipSuit cases that combine interactive lock screens to the FlexWindow. There are even a couple of new ones I checked out with built-in LEDs that light up the back of the phone, which takes power via the phone’s wireless charging.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review: Cameras

I’m very excited for the cameras in the Galaxy Z Flip 6. That’s because the phone now features an upgraded 50MP main camera paired with a 12MP ultrawide lens. The former is a huge step up from the Z Flip 5’s 12MP camera, but it’s made better because of how the Galaxy Z Flip 6 leverages pixel binning to offer a reasonable 2x zoom with optical-like quality. This is the smarter way of approaching the cameras, seeing that it effectively offers the range in most triple camera setups, but with a more compact dual camera arrangement instead.

There’s also a new camcorder mode, just like on the Razr Plus 2024, that gives a nostalgic feel when the phone’s folded in the halfway position — complete with zoom controls at your fingertips. Another new feature is the intelligent way the Galaxy Z Flip 6 can frame my shots with AI zoom. No matter who I’m shooting, whether it’s just myself or a group of people, the AI zoom will automatically frame the shot correctly.

Similar to Samsung’s Galaxy S flagships, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 benefits from a rich camera app that’s filled with all the modes you’d want in a phone and a few extras — like hyperlapse, dual recording, and portrait video. There’s even a pro video mode with full manual controls, which few camera apps offer. I also love how the FlewWindow can be turned on to act as a preview screen, making it perfect for vlogging and self recordings.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is undoubtedly a phone for creators with its rich set of features and tools, but ultimately its camera performance will show me if it’s worthy of being a best camera phone contender.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review: Performance

Powered by the same chip in Samsung’s Galaxy S24 flagship devices, the Z Flip 6 leans on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for all of its muscle power. I’m instantly attuned to the fluid actions of navigating around the software, since just about every movement is met with tight responses. Furthermore, it extends to other aspects of the experience, including my regular routines running apps and switching between them.

Benchmark results reveal what I suspected initially: the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is a powerhouse in the flip-phone space. GeekBench single and multicore scores for the Z Flip 6 have it registering scores of 2,091 and 7,022 respectively, which are incrementally better than the previous Z Flip 5.

Z Flip 6	Z Flip 5
CPU	Snapdragon 8 Gen 3	Snapdragon 8 Gen 2
Geekbench 5 (single core/multicore)	2,091 / 7,022	1,354 / 4,288
3DMark Wild Life Unlimited (fps)	113.4	79.1
Adobe Premiere Rush (Mins:Secs)	0:46	0:42

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review: Software and AI

Samsung’s One UI 6.1.1 runs on top of Android 14 on the Galaxy Z Flip 6. The aesthetics look familiar for anyone who’s used a recent Galaxy phone, but this year’s flip phone comes out of the box with the same suite of Galaxy AI features first introduced by the S24 series earlier this year.

These include things such as Instant Slow-Mo, Generative Edit, Note Assist, Transcript Assist, and much more. They function the same way as they do on the S24, with some being more useful in saving me time with my day-to-day activities. It also comes with Circle to Search and Google Gemini, although you can’t run Circle to Search on the FlexWindow display — but Gemini works like a charm on the smaller screen.

I’m still a little annoyed that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 doesn’t natively let me run full apps on the FlexWindow display. Instead, I’m forced to go through the same work around as before with the Flip 5 by downloading the Good Lock app through Samsung’s Galaxy Store. After that’s all taken care of, I’m able to access even greater utility with the outer screen — much like how the Razr Plus 2024 does it natively.

Samsung introduces a few new AI features with its latest foldable phones, as well as new optimizations that make them work more effectively with the external displays on those devices. Here’s all of them that I got to check out on the Flip 6:

• Photo Assist: Through the Gallery App, Photo Assist lets me take selfies and photos I’ve taken of myself and transform them into drawings, sketches, and 3D models with the help of generative AI.
• Photo Ambient: In addition to the AI-generated wallpapers I can create, there’s also another option called Photo Ambient specifically for the lockscreen wallpaper. It works best when I use photos of landscapes I’ve captured with the camera, which Photo Ambient will use to change its look in real-time based on the weather and time. For example, I’ve seen it transform into a warmer color tone right for bedtime.
• Auto Zoom: This AI-feature takes the hassle of framing a shot by automatically zooming in the camera app when it detects people. It dynamically adjusts to zoom appropriately to include everyone, but I still sometimes manually adjust it to get the composition I want — even if it means having more dead space in the frame.
• Interpreter Mode: Functionally it’s the same here as it is with the Galaxy S24 by allowing for real-time translation between two people speaking. But the difference here is how much more practical it becomes when it’s used in conjunction with the FlexWindow display by allowing both parties to see the translation on their respective displays when the Flip 6’s folded halfway.
• Suggested Replies: This Galaxy AI feature is exclusive only to the Z Flip 6 and offers AI-generated message replies that appear on the FlexWindow display. But forever what reason, I haven’t been able to properly test it out after following instructions of how to set it up. I’ll revisit this as soon as I get it to work.
• For a flip-style phone, the Z Flip 6 is pretty adept at multitasking — with upwards of three apps running simultaneously. However, I wish more apps were optimized for Flex Mode apart from the native offerings and some Google apps. Take for example Google Photos, which I initially suspected would shift photos and video to the top half of the screen in Flex Mode, but it doesn’t.
• Beyond all of the AI features, the one thing I’m curious to find out is if more apps have been optimized to work in Flex Mode, like the hands-free experience of putting the phone down and shooting selfies. And of course, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 also benefits from the same seven years of software and security updates as the Galaxy S24.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review: Battery

  Samsung is able to cram in a larger 4,000 mAh battery into the Z Flip 6, up from 3,700 mAh in the Z Flip 5, all while keeping the same svelte profile as before. Along with the power efficiency of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 easily carries me through a full working day with a single charge.

Galaxy Z Flip 6	Galaxy Z Flip 5
Battery size	4,000 mAh	3,700 mAh
Battery life (Hrs:Mins)	11:01	9:53
Charging speed	25W wired, 15W wireless	25W wired, 15W wireless
Charge % after 30 minutes	55%	52%

conclusion

I genuinely like the Galaxy Z Flip 6. It’s a charming flip phone with more utility than the average slate, while still offering one of the best-in-class cameras among foldables. There are also the handful of new Galaxy AI features that add a dash of extra convenience into the mix.
The sixth-generation Flip is a fairly minor update featuring a few small refinements to the design and a big boost in battery life to help keep it on a par with regular premium phones.
The flattened sides and coloured accents give it a more modern feel. The internal screen is one of the very best on the market, rivalling the colour, smoothness and brightness of a quality flat phone display. Two-day battery life means it should make it to the end of even the heaviest of usage days, while an improved main camera and some fun new AI tricks are welcome additions.

 

 

    The custom-built Galaxy Z Flip6 smartphone will be provided to nearly 17,000 athletes competing at Paris 2024, enhancing their Games-time experience like never before.

>>>EB-BF741ABE Battery for Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6

Samsung Electronics, a Worldwide Olympic and Paralympic Partner, today revealed the Olympic Edition of its newly announced Galaxy Z Flip6, exclusively designed and customized for all athletes competing at the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024. The Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition continues Samsung’s over three-decade-long legacy of providing its cutting-edge technology and mobile innovations in support of the Games and represents a series of firsts.

• Interpreter2 – instantly translates live conversations, allowing athletes to chat with other athletes and volunteers and receive a live translation of what they’re saying on screen – while still speaking face-to-face, thanks to the phone’s unique dual screen.
• Composer3 – helps to draft emails and social media posts in apps by using simple keywords. For social media app specifically, it even analyzes the tone of past content, making it easier for athletes to express their excitement at some of the competition’s most thrilling or poignant moments.

Athletes can also use Galaxy AI on the Olympic Edition phone to help prepare for competition, enhance their creativity, and capture lifelong memories at Paris 2024, with features including:

• Instant Slow-mo4 – allows athletes to record, share and analyze their performances in slow motion, making it easier for them to refine their technique.
• Photo Assist5 – enables athletes to get the perfect shot every time, by resizing, repositioning or even removing unwanted objects within photos.

Built-in Services and Apps Making the Olympic and Paralympic Experience Fun and Easys.

 To make it easier for athletes to use the phone while in Paris and beyond, each Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition will come with an eSIM of 100GB 5G data in partnership with Orange, and two years of Samsung’s international warranty. Additionally, to keep track of the latest Games-time schedules and travel around the Olympic venues with ease, several official International Olympic Committee (IOC) apps such as Athlete 365,6 Olympic Shop, Paris 2024, Transport Accred App, and IOC hotline will be pre-loaded.

Via Samsung Wallet,7 it also will come pre-loaded with an in-app pass for free beverages in vending machines located throughout the Olympic and Paralympic Village in partnership with fellow Worldwide Partner, The Coca-Cola Company, and an unlimited complimentary public transport access card, in partnership with Île-de-France Mobilités (IDFM), so they can enjoy touring the city of Paris and its region.

To bring some fun and personalization to the athlete experience, each Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition will feature a suite of interactive, Paris 2024-themed apps, as well. These include PinQuest and Galaxy Experience for collecting and exchanging real and digital pins during Games-time, Olympic Go!, the official Olympic Game, and Galaxy Skateboard, a new game featuring the Phryges, the Paris 2024 mascots.

Sharing Moments of Victory from the Podium Firsthand

Standing atop the Olympic and Paralympic podium during the medal ceremony and realizing a lifelong dream is one of the most emotional and memorable moments an athlete can experience. Traditionally photographed by accredited media only because athletes have been prohibited from bringing personal belongings — including their mobile phones — to the ceremony, the view has always been captured from a distance and not through an athlete’s own lens.

For the first time in Olympic and Paralympic Games history, Samsung will provide the Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition for use on the podium at Paris 2024, so athletes can create their own memories and emotions via a new, victory selfie. Samsung’s customized technology will map and sort the athletes’ selfies by sport and upload them to Athlete365 in real-time, which will allow athletes to save and share their iconic moments with family and fans.

The Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition will be displayed at Olympic™ rendezvous @ Samsung showcases, including the one at Champs-Elysees 125, starting July 12. In collaboration with the IOC and International Paralympic Committee (IPC).

Turn your power button into a power button

Press and hold the power button on your Samsung phone and it won’t turn the phone off. Instead, it’s set to launch Bixby. That’s right, Samsung’s obsolete voice assistant still lurks in your phone, while restarting your phone is more difficult than it needs to be.

Head into the Settings, then Advanced features where you’ll find the side button controls. Here you can change the press and hold option to the power off menu instead of triggering Bixby. You can also select what you want a double press to do, but I’d leave is as the camera, for quick access whenever you want to take a photo.

Switch to gesture navigation – it’s not 2018

Samsung loves its three-button controls. It loves them so much, then even when all other Android brands had established a consistent order for those buttons, Samsung still did it backwards. By default your Galaxy S24 has those three button controls for navigation, which is shocking in this day and age. 

Android is now built around fluid gesture navigation, so switch your Samsung so you’re not left in the dark ages. Head into Settings and then Display controls and you’ll find the options for the navigation bar. Switch this to gestures and join the future.

Supercharge your lock screen

If you want to make the most of your lock screen, just tap on the clock that’s on it. That will spring open the widgets, loaded with information for you to glance it. It will include music, alarms, routines you have for the lock screen as well as the voice recorder, by default. But tap “settings” at the bottom and you can customize what’s shown.

That will give you the option of weather, your schedule, SmartThings (Samsung’s smart home app) and Digital Wellbeing, so you can glance at your screen time. You can choose what you are shown and what you aren’t, but it’s a great way to get quickly to information, and quickly access those features.

Get your Galaxy AI ducks in order

Galaxy AI is the headline feature for Samsung’s S24 family and you won’t be surprised to hear that you’ll need to sign into your Samsung account to access those features. For anything that involves the keyboard, you’ll have to use Samsung’s keyboard, while the photo features reside in Samsung’s Gallery app. For the calling feature, you’ll have to use Samsung’s Phone app.

So if you want to use the AI features, make sure you sign into your Samsung account. If you’re happy not to use them (you can use Google’s AI in Photos on a limited basis), then you have a little more freedom around your device. If you want to use Galaxy AI, you’ll have to use the Samsung app associated with those features.

Install Gboard for smoother typing

If you don’t think you need Galaxy AI in the keyboard (or don’t need it all the time), then Gboard is a much faster keyboard offering a better experience – and it’s a first-class swap to make. Just download Gboard from Google Play and it will walk you through the installation and making it the default keyboard.

However, in Settings, General management, Keyboard list and default, you’ll find all your keyboard controls. At the bottom of this list you’ll see the option for “keyboard button on navigation bar”. Make sure this is turned on and then you’ll have the option to instantly switch keyboards with a tap. That means you can write in Gboard, but instantly swap to Samsung Keyboard if you want to access Galaxy AI.

There’s another step, however. Once you’ve swapped back to Samsung Keyboard it becomes the default again, but there’s another hack. In Samsung Keyboard you’ll see the voice input button on the toolbar. Press and hold on this and you get the option for “input method”. Once you’ve selected that, you’ll be able to switch keyboards back and forth all you like.

So there you have it. Those are the five things I think you should do when you get a Samsung Galaxy S24.

Undoubtedly, Samsung is considered the biggest name in the Android world. If you are thinking of buying a new phone, it is, however coherent that you might consider buying Samsung’s best mobile .

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is all about strong performance and great software. It’s neither as pretty nor as bright as the Razr Plus 2024, but it’s an undoubtedly future-proof handset.

>>>EB-BF741ABE Battery for Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6

For

• Durable design and more refined build
• Powerful performance and productive features
• Galaxy AI is pretty good, and getting better

Against

• Lacks innovative cover-display capabilities
• Battery life is below average and charging is slow
• IP48 protection does not mean it’s dust resistan

Motorola Razr Plus 2024

The Motorola Razr Plus 2024 lacks the sheer performance of its main competitor, but it boasts a superior design and much better displays. As such, it’s arguably the better foldable, but not necessarily the better phone.

For

• Cool colors and a more durable design with vegan leather
• Larger cover display is brighter and more immersive
• Easy interface with useful gestures, not overloaded with features

Against

• New Moto AI features offer the same bigotry as other AI image generators
• Cameras are better, but still can’t match the best camera phones
• Performance lags behind competitors, especially the new Galaxy

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 vs Motorola Razr Plus 2024: design

These two phones conform to the same clamshell form factor. They’re two full-sized yet slim phones that can fold over at the halfway point, making them into a more compact yet obviously much thicker bundle.

At 165.1 x 71.9 x 6.9mm when open, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is the smaller of the two in every way. There isn’t an awful lot in it though, with the Motorola Razr Plus 2024 measuring 171.4 x 74 x 7.1mm. Samsung’s phone is 0.4mm thicker when closed, though it’s also 2g lighter at 187g.

It’s in the fit and finish where these phones set out their differences. At a basic level, the Galaxy Z flip 6 is harder and more industrial-looking, with a flat, sharp-edged aluminum rim and a matte finish. There’s Gorilla Glass Victus 2 covering the whole of the external area.

The Flip 6 undoubtedly feels sturdy, though, with a reinforced hinge design and a bolstered IP48 rating. That makes it more resistant to small physical items like hair and lint than the Razr, which has to make do with IPX8 certification.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 vs Motorola Razr Plus 2024: displays

Both of these foldable phones give you a pair of screens: one full-sized internal one, and one smaller external display for heads-up notifications.

In keeping with its slightly larger body, the Motorola Razr Plus 2024 goes bigger in both departments. Its inner screen is a 6.9-inch FHD+OLED, while the Galaxy Z Flip 6’s equivalent is a 6.7-inch FHD+ OLED.

There isn’t all that much in it, but the Motorola also gives you an elevated 165Hz refresh rate to the Flip 6’s 120Hz. It feels a little like overkill if we’re being honest, especially with a need to conserve energy on such space-constrained devices. Still, an advantage is an advantage.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 vs Motorola Razr Plus 2024: cameras

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 makes one particularly meaningful improvement on its predecessor, adding a new 50MP main sensor to the package. We say ‘new’, but it’s actually the same sensor that the Galaxy S24 has, which wasn’t even a new component at its launch in January.

The Razr Plus 2024 features a 50MP main camera, and the sensor is a tad smaller than its rival’s. It too captures good shots in decent lighting, though it does tend to punch colors up a little – just as the Flip 6 does.

It’s with the secondary cameras that the real contrast arises. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 goes for a traditional (and quite unremarkable) 12MP ultra-wide, while the Razr Plus 2024 makes the unusual decision to supply a 50MP 2x telephoto camera.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 vs Motorola Razr Plus 2024: performance and software

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 has a clear advantage in the performance category. It uses a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy chipset, while the Razr Plus 2024 is powered by the objectively weaker Snapdragon 8s Gen 3.

Some explanation is required here. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy chipset is the regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, but with a higher clock speed to its CPU and GPU. Meanwhile, the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 is a cut-down version of the same chipset, with a lower clock speed for its fast core, a downgraded configuration for the slower cores, and an inferior GPU.

To boil it down to a sentence: the Flip 6 runs on a slightly faster version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, while the Razr Plus 2024 runs on a significantly slower version of the same chipset.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 vs Motorola Razr Plus 2024: verdict

We don’t think you’ll be disappointed with either the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 or the Motorola Razr Plus 2024. These are the two classiest compact foldable phones on the global market right now.

Their basic designs are much the same, though small details matter here. The cheaper Razr Plus 2024 is warmer and comfier to hold, while the Flip 6 is sharper, tougher, and slightly more compact. Motorola’s phone has the more impressive dual-screen provision, too, with a larger and more fluid main screen and a way more useful cover display.

Meaningful changes under the hood and clever display capabilities make the latest Galaxy flip phone one of the best on the market.

The new Galaxy Z Flip 6 is thinner and lighter than ever, with flattened edges that give the phone an industrial feel in the hand. Samsung is selling the Z Flip this year in a multitude of pastel colors: Blue, Mint, Yellow, Silver Shadow, White, Peach, and Crafted Black. For a little more personality, the camera rings are accented with the color you choose.

ALSO:https:EB-BF742ABE Battery for Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6

The camera system has gotten perhaps the biggest boost from last year’s model, with an improved 50MP main sensor and a 12MP ultra-wide. Samsung tells me it decided to stick with an ultra-wide camera instead of switching to a telephoto lens like competing phone maker Motorola because it allows users to take better group photos, and I agree. The ultra-wide sensor should serve users better when taking photos of taller and wider landscapes.

The most fascinating camera improvement is the new AI-powered Auto Zoom feature, which automatically detects how many people are in a frame, as well as potential background objects you may want to keep in the shot (think Eiffel Tower, the name of a storefront, etc.) and repositions accordingly.

Now, the funner part: the outer display, or, as Samsung calls it, Flex Window. It’s the same 3.4-inch screen as last year’s model, but the company’s baked in some whimsical elements:

• Interactive Wallpapershave animations that you tap, drag, and shake the phone to interact with. One of my favorites had various emojis that would tumble around as you rotated the device.
• Photo Ambient applies a weather and/or color temperature filter, depending on your time and location.
• Generative Wallpaperlets you create new wallpapers by selecting key theme words.
• You can quickly respond to text messages withSuggested Replies, which pull context from previous conversations and formulate replies based on your texting style.
• Like the larger Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, you can use dual-screenInterpreter Modefor live translations between two languages.
• New Flex Window widgets include Samsung Health, SmartThings, Reminder, and News.
• 
• Ultimately, the outer display, where Samsung has the most room to innovate, feels more functional than before, and users who were already drawn to the customizability of the Z Flip are likely to appreciate the new changes. There’s even an improved Flipsuit case that, when clipped onto the back of the phone, automatically changes the wallpaper to match its design via NFC. Plus, with wireless charging, the case’s LED should light up whenever you fold and unfold the device.Stay tuned to ZDNET for a deeper dive into theSamsung Galaxy Z Flip 6.
