[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 brings several key improvements over the Z Flip5. Some are pretty straightforward like using a 50MP sensor in the main camera. Others took some doing. For example, the 2024 model features a larger combined battery capacity of 4,000mAh, compared to the 3,700mAh of the Z Flip5.It is split between two cells – the main one with 2,870mAh and a secondary cell with 1,130mAh capacity. The Z Flip5 battery was split into a 2,700mAh main and 1,000mAh secondary cells, so the 2024 model managed to pack more into each. You can see them in PBKreviews’ teardown video, here...

If this pans out, then expect the Poco M6 Plus to sport a 6.79-inch 1080x2460 120 Hz LCD touchscreen, the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC,...
