Motorola Edge 2025 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6

Motorola Edge 2025

The 6.7-inch pOLED display with 4,500 nits peak brightness is arguably the phone's best feature. The 2712x1220 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate make for a smooth, sharp viewing experience that rivals phones costing much more.

• 4,500 nits peak brightness makes it one of the brightest mid-range displays available — excellent outdoor visibility
• "If there is one feature worth the full $550, it's the display" — consistently praised across reviews
• Measured real-world brightness of 1,375 nits falls behind Pixel 9a (2,561 nits) despite higher claimed peak

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6

The inner 7.6-inch display is gorgeous but the narrow cover screen divides opinion.

• The inner display is beautiful — bright, smooth, and the extra screen real estate transforms productivity tasks.
• The cover screen at 6.3 inches is usable but still feels cramped compared to regular phones — typing is a challenge.

The triple camera system with a 3x optical telephoto is a genuine standout at this price. PANTONE color tuning produces vibrant daylight photos, and the 50MP ultrawide with autofocus is a meaningful upgrade. However, processing tends to oversharpen, and the camera can't match Pixel 9a's computational photography.

• 3x optical telephoto lens offers real versatility that most mid-range competitors skip entirely
• PANTONE color tuning produces "generally stunning" photos in good lighting conditions
• Night mode and Auto Night Vision perform surprisingly well for a mid-range phone
• Inconsistent processing with a tendency to oversharpen and blow out highlights

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6

Capable cameras but not flagship-tier, which stings at this price point.

• Photos are good by any standard, but when you're paying $1,899, 'good' feels insufficient compared to the S24 Ultra's camera.
• The 3x telephoto is fine but the lack of a periscope zoom lens feels like a cost-cutting measure.
