Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6<\/a> was unveiled on July 10 at the company’s Galaxy Unpacked event in Paris alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 6<\/a>. The foldable phone sports a 7.6-inch 120Hz QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Infinity Flex primary display and a 6.3-inch HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X outer screen. It comes with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, a\u00a04,400mAh battery with 25W wired and wireless charging support. Some users are now reporting that the paint is peeling off the body of the book-style foldable, while Samsung has stated that the phenomenon might be caused by third-party accessories.<\/p>\n

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Owners Report Paint Peeling Issue: What We Know<\/h2>\n

A few Reddit users reported<\/a> instances of paint peeling off their considerably new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 handsets. The images shared by them show small sections of paint coming off of the body\u00a0\u2014 one near the power button, while another near the top left corner of the rear panel.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

An official Samsung support page<\/a> states that this might be caused due to the use of “incompatible third-party products” with the\u00a0Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. Among these products, the company primarily blames “high-speed third-party” chargers which are not properly grounded.<\/p>\n

The South Korean tech giant says that current leakage from these chargers may adversely affect the\u00a0anodisation of the phone resulting in slight\u00a0delamination of the paint. Anodisation is the process that is said to give metal, in this instance, the metal body of the handset, a “decorative, durable corrosion-resistant finish.”<\/p>\n

The company added that usage of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) massagers while using the\u00a0Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 can also cause the paint to come off. Samsung recommends that users place the phone away from their body while using these EMS products.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Samsung, however, adds on the page that “if a third-party charger comes from a reputable company, is of high quality, and adheres to the Qi standard,” it should be safe to use with any Samsung handset. For best results, the firm suggests, users employ an “authentic Samsung charger” designed for the “specific” Samsung device.<\/p>\n

Notably, the\u00a0Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 ships without a charger in the box. On the Samsung India website, the\u00a025W adaptor is currently priced<\/a> at Rs. 1,699, while the USB Type-C to USB Type-C cable is listed<\/a> at Rs. 599.<\/p>\n
