The market for foldable smartphones is becoming more competitive as new companies enter the market in 2023 and expand with cutting-edge products in 2024. However, as the company doubles down on the India market, industry experts claim Samsung has made considerable gains in integrating AI across its foldable portfolio.
Samsung Electronics’ President and Head of MX Business, TM Roh, recently visited India and stated that the South Korean behemoth is collaborating closely with local component partners to fortify the supply chain and infrastructure.
According to Roh, the business anticipates strong demand for the new foldable Z Flip 6 and Fold 6 from Indian customers. Experts continue to be optimistic about the foldable market’s long-term prospects, with Samsung leading the way.
The assurance stems from the Galaxy Z Fold6’s assortment of AI-driven functionalities and instruments that optimize the expansive display and greatly augment efficiency.
Fold6 has a number of features that are industry-leading, such as Note Assist, which provides auto formatting, translation, and summaries for straightforward meeting notes.
Additionally, a new embedded transcript feature allows voice recordings to be instantly translated, summarized, and transcription performed in Notes.
The PDF overlay translation feature in Notes allows text within PDF files to be correctly translated and superimposed. Text within graphics and graphs is also supported.
Specifically for social media, the Composer feature analyzes past posts to generate language that matches your tone.
Furthermore, the S Pen experience is enhanced by meeting with Galaxy AI on the screen of the Galaxy Z Fold6.
With the new Galaxy Z series, the most recent Google Gemini app, version 10, is fully integrated and offers your personal AI-powered assistant directly on your phone.
You can ask questions using the Gemini overlay in the multi-window split screen when viewing a K-pop music video on YouTube on the big screen of the Galaxy Z Fold6.
Simply long press the home button, circle, highlight, or tap the screen to bring up Circle to Search, which, according to Samsung, provides rapid search results if you’re wondering who the artist is in the video.
Real-time phone call translation is provided by the “Live Translate” feature on your device. Now, this feature is available for a number of well-known third-party apps.
The Galaxy Z Fold6’s AI-powered ProVisual Engine elevates creativity to a new level. Producing high-quality content is made easier with Photo Assist’s sophisticated editing experience on a wide screen.
With its potent CPU and 1.6x larger vapour chamber, the Galaxy Z Fold6 provides gamers with an improved gaming experience that allows them to play games longer without sacrificing performance.
With Ray Tracing technology, vibrant, lifelike images come to life on a 7.6-inch screen with a brighter brightness of up to 2,600nit for more immersive gaming.
Record-breaking preorders for Samsung’s sixth-generation foldable cellphones were placed in India. The new Z series proved to be the most popular in India as pre-orders for the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 surged by 40% on the first day when compared to the previous generation of foldables.
As per Roh’s statement, “we have consistently strived to enhance the foldables’ usability and experience, maximizing their potential both independently and in collaboration with our partners.”
Per experts, the Galaxy Z Fold6 provides an unparalleled experience for Indians who are passionate about folding devices.
In India, the market for foldable smartphones is anticipated to grow to 0.8 million units by 2024. According to Counterpoint Research, Samsung dominated the foldable market in Q1 2024 with a 79 percent market share. The Samsung Galaxy Fold 5 accounted for half of the brand’s shipments of foldable devices.
