I have obviously been exploring a lot with my Z Fold 6, despite never owning one before I was aware of many of the features but have still come across some Discoveries.
 
Whilst I was aware of Flex Mode, did not quite know the adaptability of it and just how it can enhance your experience. For instance in video applications, you can have the video playing on the upper portion of the screen and features like Brightness Control, volume control and a Touchpad for easier navigation. Whilst I have not really used this extensively situations where it would be beneficial like video chats, photo shoots or even when cooking. There are some things I was a bit more cautious about on a Test Device though.
 
For instance, if you are starting a Team Meeting from the cover screen can open it up on the Tablet Display. You just need to Turn the Device, fold it Horizontally about halfway and sit it down on the Desk. The advantage of this method it that you can video chat hands free.
 
The one snag is that not all apps are compatible with Flex Mode but the main stock ones certainly are, you might have varying degrees of success with other apps but they have not been adapted.
 
Whilst not everyone is confident with Developer options and there are some settings you should not change a number of Z Fold 6 likely to have more advanced knowledge. For instance, I use Wi-fi scan throttling which reduces Battery Drain, if you prefer Wi-Fi stability over performance can enable that. If you wish your to be always active can enable that for fast Networking switching. It is a good idea to set a Default USB configuration, and you may wish to check that the correct Bluetooth codecs are selected when using Buds/Wireless Headphones.
 
With Z Fold6 I have been experimenting with the windows animation scale (Drawing Section) think the best option is to try the Animation scale of .5x compared with the default of 1x. It does feel faster and snappier. I tried changing Windows animation scale, Transition Animation scale and Animation Duration scale. Could just try the Duration scale though.

However, some may find the animation is fine as it is and anyone who does not normally use Developer options would be best to leave this alone.

Thanks for your feedback @JAMES4578 !! 

 

It's great to hear that you had got to grips with the Flex Mode, and utilised a lot of the useful features! 

 

I personally use the Z Fold6 as my daily driver, and I love it. I always like to hear what others think of it too! 

 

Kind Regards,
