Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Takes the Foldable Camera Crown, According to DxOMark
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 might not be a radical departure from its predecessor, but its subtly improved camera system has earned it a top spot in DxOMark's foldable phone rankings.
Here's the breakdown:
- Overall Score: The Galaxy Z Fold 6 achieved an overall score of 133, tying it with the Google Pixel Fold for first place in the foldable category.
- Strengths: DxOMark highlighted the phone's good overall photo and video performance for a foldable, especially praising its telephoto lens's ability to capture detailed images.
- Weaknesses: The review wasn't without criticism. DxOMark identified areas for improvement, such as low-light autofocus, subject exposure in night shots, and video noise reduction in dark environments.
- Bigger Picture: While a leader amongst foldables, the Z Fold 6 (and Pixel Fold) only managed to secure the 45th spot in DxOMark's overall smartphone camera rankings, indicating a performance gap compared to traditional flagship phones.
Key takeaway: The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 boasts a top-tier camera experience within the foldable market segment, but it still lags behind leading conventional smartphones in terms of pure camera prowess.
