How many software updates will the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 receive?
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 will get the same long-term updates as the Galaxy S24.
Samsung guarantees 400,000 unlocks with the hinge, but the inherent design of the foldable means the chassis is prone to higher wear and tear — more so than a regular phone — and at this point, we just don't know how these devices will measure up in long-term use. The only anecdote I can share in this regard is that my dad's two-year-old Galaxy Z Fold 3 needed to have its outer panel switched out and the back cover changed. That said, it remains to be seen how the Galaxy Z Fold 6 measures up in this regard; Samsung made changes to the chassis to allow it to last a longer duration, and that should make all the difference in extended use.
