Here's why Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 6 is a major design success

With the design of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, Samsung skipped ahead a few generations, proving its the leader of hardware in the Android camp.

The material used for the cover is polished and lightweight, and I think the general light colors (except the navy blue) were intentionally chosen to highlight the fact that these foldables are Samsung's lightest yet. Samsung said it wanted customers to feel like they were using a conventional bar-type smartphone when using the cover screen of the Z Fold 6. While its efforts to reduce the crease in each successive generation are commendable, I feel these form factors will only be fully realized when they are completely gone.
