I Don’t Drive — But My Z Fold 6 Drives My Ride Experience

Final trilogy articles from Automologist Su. Read Part 1 & Part 2 if you not read it yet. Now with her Galaxy Z Fold 6.

I haven’t driven since 2020. But that doesn’t mean I’ve stopped moving. Thanks to Grab, Rapid On-Demand vans, and my trusty Galaxy Z Fold 6, I stay connected, entertained, and in control — all from the passenger seat.

Whether I’m in a family car heading balik kampung, or catching a ride through the city, my Z Fold 6 is more than just a phone — it’s my ride companion.

1. Waze on a Cinematic Screen — The Co-Pilot Vibe

With the Fold’s 7.6″ unfolded screen, I’m the perfect co-pilot. Waze becomes huge, clear, and easy to follow — helping the driver avoid jams, find fuel stations, and even spot roadside durian stalls faster.

Real-life moment:
“Kak, petrol station 5km lagi! Take the left lane!”
(me, navigating like a boss in the backseat)

2. Balik Kampung = Mini Cinema Mode

Long road trip? No problem. With Flex Mode, I fold the Z like a mini laptop, place it on the armrest, and dive into:
– BTS RUN episodes
– Netflix K-dramas
– Prime Video movies
– LokLok C-dramas

Paired with my earbuds and some snacks, the backseat becomes my private screening room.

BTS moment:
“I’ve rewatched Spring Day MV more times on the highway than I can count.”

3. Rapid On-Demand & Grab: I Ride Smart

Since I no longer drive, Rapid KL’s Trek van and Grab rides are part of my routine. My Z Fold 6 helps me:
– Book the Trek van easily through the app
– Monitor real-time arrival
– Switch to Spotify or YouTube while waiting
– Catch up on Weverse while on the road

This isn’t just transport. It’s a smart way to live in KL without the stress of traffic or parking.

4. Split-Screen Queen: Multi-Tasking in Motion

Only Z Fold users will get it:
Watching YouTube and browsing Shopee.
Checking Waze and sending a Telegram voice note.
Spotify playlist + BTS live + TikTok — all running at once.

Whether I’m in my brother’s Aruz or a Grab MyVi, I’m always plugged in and doing 3 things at once.

5. Car Manager From the Passenger Seat

Even if I’m not behind the wheel, I still:
– Pay road tax for all 4 cars I own
– Set service reminders
– Top up Touch ’n Go
– Remind my sister when to send her car for alignment 😅

All handled from one place: the Z Fold 6.

Bonus: I use Samsung Notes and Google Calendar side-by-side to manage each car’s details.

6. Fold-Friendly in the Car

In folded mode, it fits in most car phone holders. In Flex mode, it stands upright on its own — no extra tripod needed.

It even works great in the Rapid van tray table, making my ride feel like business class (minus the snacks).

Bonus: ARMY Life On the Road

My Z Fold 6 keeps me connected to BTS 24/7:
– Stream Spotify playlists with Jimin’s voice filling the car
– Watch V-Lives on Weverse in landscape
– Rewatch concert clips when I miss them

No matter where I’m going, I feel like I’ve got BTS in the car with me.
