The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 was announced at a Samsung Galaxy Unpacked showcase on July 10, 2024, where we also saw the introduction of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 among other Galaxy devices. 

Offering a suite of refinements over its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, the Fold 6 also comes in a suite of new colors. For our initial early impressions, check out our hands-on Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 review. 

Silver Shadow

What Samsung calls Silver Shadow is basically a smokey silver. In bright lights the silver pops, whereas in darker conditions it looks more like a light gray. 

Its finish is more dynamic than the simple grey of the Fold 5 and looks a bit closer to the Icy Blue color option the older foldable phones has. Overall, I think Silver Shadow is a rather nice color option for the Fold 6, threading the line between workhorse professionalism with a hint of playfulness.

Pink has finally made it over from the likes of the Galaxy Z Flip phones to the Galaxy Z Fold 6. But don't expect a particularly striking pink, as this shade is more of a creamy white with a hint of pink.

How prominent the pink will be is dependant on the lighting. But if you want a phone  with a light color but don't want a prominent white that'll likely show up dirt more readily than other shades, this pink for the Fodl 6 could be the one to go for. 

Navy

Pretty run-of-the mill, the Navy option for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is a akin to the dark blue one might expect to find on a business suit. 

And much like such suits, the blueness of the color will pop more in bright lights and fade more to a near-black in lower lighting conditions. If you're looking to use the Fold 6 for work, then this is the color option I'd suggest going for. 

Crafted Black

A Samsung online store exclusive, we didn't get to see the Crafted Black Galaxy Z Fold 6 in person. But expect it to be a straightforward black option that's not dissimilar to the Phantom Black of previous Galaxy phones. 

One could argue that black is a somewhat dull color for a phone these days. Equally, its a classic shade so you can't really go wrong with it. And I've used black Galaxy Folds before and feel the color works well on a foldable phone. 

White

Much like Crafted Black, we weren't able to see the White option for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 in person as it's an online exclusive. But expect it to be a fairly run-of-the-mill white shade. 

White is popular with smartphone makers, though I feel it's a tad uninspired for Samsung. An option for people who want to play it safe.
