Yeah I’m hot for titanium again
There hasn’t been a glut of rumors around the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, but I’m already tentatively hyped for it. And the reason for that is titanium.
Yes, I’ve already talked up how I think titanium is pretty great in the iPhone 15 Pro Max and Galaxy S24 Ultra, having initially thought of it as a mild marketing gimmick. But the more I think about what’s next for smartphones the more it feels like titanium will be a big deal in foldable phones.
Despite using an iPhone 15 Pro Max as my main phone, I do love folding phones. The OnePlus Open is very slick and deserves a place on our best foldable phones list, but I’ve long been a Galaxy Fold user for the most part.
There’s more to be done to make folding phones proper mainstream devices, yet they are still great rectangles of tech able to pull double duties as feature-packed smartphones and compact tablets. For me, they are superb devices for note-taking, gaming, and reading digital books and magazines.
However, I’ve never committed to slotting my SIM card into a Galaxy Fold, despite the evolution of Samsung’s flagship foldable phone. The reason for that is a tedious one: they are too heavy and bulky.
