Samsung presents Galaxy Z Flip6 and Galaxy Z Fold6 as well as new watches and headphones

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 debuts with a slightly changed styling compared to its predecessor - but in general it remains a classic flap with a characteristically shaped external display. This display has a size of 3.4 inches and a resolution of 720x748 pixels with an image refresh rate of 60 Hz. It was made in Super AMOLED technology. The internal display, in turn, measures 6.7 inches, has Full HD+ resolution and image refreshment adjustable in the range of 1-120 Hz. It was made in Dynamic AMOLED 2x technology. The internal, foldable screen has a hole for a 10-megapixel camera with f/2.2 aperture. On the outside of the flap there is a 50-megapixel main camera with micrometer pixels, optical image stabilization and f/1.8 aperture. The heart of the smartphone is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, combined with 12 GB of RAM and 256 or 512 GB of flash memory. Power is provided by a 4000 mAh battery with 25-watt charging and induction. The smartphone runs Android 14 with the OneUI 6.1.1 interface and supports the eSIM standard, in addition to space for a physical nanoSIM card. There will be a total of six colours to choose from (silver, yellow, blue, mint, black and white), but the last two will only be available in the Samsung store. The inside of the case has protection against moisture and dust at the IP48 level, and the phone weighs 178 g. The closed flap measures 71.9x85.1x14.9 mm, and the open flap - 71.9x165.1x6.9 mm. Prices are €1,200 ($1,100) for the 12+256 GB version and €1,320 ($1,220) for the 12+512 GB version.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 has also not changed its shape significantly - but it cannot be said to be completely identical to its predecessor - it has slightly sharper housing lines. Here too we will find the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and 12 GB of RAM and 256 and 512 GB of internal memory - but there is also a 1 TB variant. The internal AMOLED screen has a diagonal of 7.6 inches, a resolution of 2160x1856 pixels and a refresh rate of 1-120 Hz, while the external one - Dynamic AMOLED 2x - is 6.3-inch, with a resolution of 1276x968 pixels and again a refresh rate of 1-120 Hz. The smartphone is powered by a 4,400 mAh battery with 25-watt charging, and of course there is support for eSIM and induction. Like Filp, this model runs on Android 14 with the OneUI 6.1.1 interface and has a side fingerprint reader. The whole thing weighs 239 g and when opened measures 132.6x153.5x5.6 mm, and when closed - 68.1x153.5x12.1 mm. The tightness of the housing is always in the IP48 class. The photo package here is more extensive than in the flap and includes:

• External 10 Mpx selfie camera, with 1.22 micrometer pixels, f/2.2 aperture and 85-degree field of view
• Internal, under-screen selfie camera 4 Mpx, with 2 micrometer pixels, f/1.8 aperture and 85-degree field of view
• 50 Mpx rear main camera, with 1-micrometer pixels and f/1.8 aperture, optical image stabilization and 85-degree field of view
• 10 Mpx telephoto rear camera, with 1 micrometer pixels and f/2.4 aperture, optical image stabilization, 3x zoom and 36-degree field of view
• 12 Mpx wide-angle rear camera, with 1.12 micrometer pixels, f/2.2 aperture and 123-degree field of view

The smartphone will be offered at a price of €2,000 ($1,900) for the 12+256 GB version, €2,120 ($2,020) for the 12+512 GB and €2,360 ($2,260) for the 12 GB + 1 TB variant. The following colours will be available: silver, pink, blue and - exclusively in the Samsung store - black and white.

Samsung Galaxy Watch7

Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 is offered in two sizes:

Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra

Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra - just like the Galaxy Watch 7 models - has an Exynos W1000 processor and 2 GB RAM and 32 GB flash memory. Like the others, it measures temperature, body composition, pressure, pulse and blood oxygenation, and also has NFC. However, it differs from the other two new watches in shape - it has a square titanium case, but with a round display - and in size - 47 mm. Its overall dimensions are 47.4x47.4x12.1 mm and weighs 60.5 g. Moreover, this model offers a higher tightness class - 10 ATM - and invariably sapphire glass. The watch has a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 480x480 and dimensions of 47.4x47.1x12.1 mm and a weight of 60.5 g. The device is powered by a 590 mAh battery, and there is Wi-Fi + LTE connectivity on board. As a system - similarly to the models described above - One UI 6 Watch works based on Wear OS 5. The price is €700 or $650.

Samsung Galaxy Buds3 and Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro

The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 and Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro wireless headphones offer protection against liquids and dust at the IP57 level and support for Ultra High-Quality Sound technology with 24-bit/96 kHz sampling. The basic Galaxy Buds3 have a single transducer, and their batteries provide up to 5 hours of listening time with noise reduction turned on and 6 hours without it. The included battery case adds an additional 24 hours to the operating time. Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro already have two-way transducers, and their battery provides 6 or 7 hours of listening time, depending on the use of ANC. The mentioned ANC, supported by artificial intelligence, has a muting function when a human voice or an alarm siren is detected. The charging box extends the operation up to 30 hours. Interestingly, these headphones support the AI live translation function and have LED backlighting. The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 model costs €180 or $210, and the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro - €250 or $280.

Samsung Galaxy Ring

The Samsung Galaxy Ring smart ring is offered in nine sizes, along with a charging box similar to that of the headphones. The ring has a titanium housing, IP68 and 10ATM tight. Its weight ranges from 2.3-3 g. The ring monitors the user's sleep, temperature and heart rate, as well as stress level, exporting data to the Galaxy Health application. Moreover, this ring can even predict the menstrual cycle based on the collected data. It is available in silver, gold and black, and the battery capacities vary depending on size - from 17 mAh, through 18.5 mAh, to 22.5 mAh. The ring uses Bluetooth LE 5.4 connectivity and can be used to control the smartphone using gestures - e.g. to trigger the shutter or silence the alarm. Before purchasing, Samsung sends a free size chart and recommends wearing a trial ring for at least 24 hours. You can also try it on in selected stores - but only in the USA, because only there the Ring is currently offered. The Samsung Galaxy Ring costs €450 or $400.
