KATHMANDU: Samsung Nepal reported record pre-orders for its 6th-generation foldable smartphones, Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6, nearly doubling the figures of the previous generation in Nepal. Pre-orders concluded on July 30, 2024, and the devices are now available in the market.

"We are delighted and thankful for the overwhelming consumer response to our new foldable – Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 in Nepal," said Pranaya Ratna Sthapit, Director of Samsung Nepal. "Our new foldable smartphones, now in their sixth generation, open the next chapter of Galaxy AI and elevate the user experience to new heights, enabling a range of unique mobile experiences across communications, productivity, and creativity."

The new foldable are the slimmest and lightest Galaxy Z series devices ever, featuring a symmetrical design with straight edges. They are equipped with enhanced Armor Aluminum and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, making them the most durable Galaxy Z series yet.

Both devices are powered by the Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform for Galaxy, offering best-in-class CPU, GPU, and NPU performance optimised for AI processing and enhanced graphics.

The Galaxy Z Fold6 includes AI-powered features such as Note Assist, Composer, Sketch to Image, Interpreter, Photo Assist, and Instant Slow-mo, maximising productivity on its large screen. It also features a 1.6x larger vapour chamber for extended gaming sessions and ray tracing for life-like graphics on its 7.6-inch screen, which offers a brighter display of up to 2,600 nits.

The Galaxy Z Flip6 offers new customisation and creativity features, including a 3.4-inch Super AMOLED FlexWindow for AI-assisted functions without opening the device. It also includes FlexCam with Auto Zoom, a 50MP Wide sensor, and a 12MP Ultra-wide sensor for enhanced camera performance. The device now features improved battery life and a vapour chamber for the first time.

Samsung Knox provides defence-grade, multi-layer security for both devices, safeguarding critical information with end-to-end hardware, real-time threat detection, and collaborative protection.
