    I hear that all the time. but I use my Pixel fold open 80% of the time. it's fine closed, no complaints, and I usually keep it closed for picture taking, but I love it open. Very happy with it. I love it. I hate Verizon and will be leaving them soon, but I love the pixel fold.

    Never watched your videos, but it was refreshing. Not jumping on the big youtubes bandwagon bashing. You reviewed the device for what it can do and didn't make it such a big concern for the small things. I must say though, for $1799 its probably easier to complain, but at the resale market for a good Pixel Fold for $700-$900, its very impressive. If they priced these at $1299-$1399 they would have a sold a LOT more. Now the phones retail is still $1799 and an afterthought for most sadly if paying full price without some kind of discount from a carrier.

    Being a Pixel fan for a long time, I bought this phone twice and returned it twice. I just couldn't justify the price. It was a nice, premium piece of technology. Add on all the Pixel extras, and it seemed like a really solid everyday phone. I sometimes wished I had kept it, just wish it had a more up to date processor. I wonder what they are doing with the design of the P Fold 2.

    i will never understand reviewers need for a faster charging speed, 30 watts is more than enough for a phone especially on a phone that last all day, a faster charging spped if just gonna deteriorate the battery faster. I charge my phone overnight and thats enough for a whole day but even if i forgot to charge my phone overnight, i just put my phone to charge for 30 minutes and that about enough for all day

      @@minhn2888 it’s probably worth waiting for the 2 now if only for a bigger price drop on the original. The biggest complement I can give the Fold is that due to the form factor and Google camera algorithms it’s the first fold or flip I’ve had I could use as my only phone. I love it.

    This pixel fold was definitely a concept. Hence it is the only pixel phone to not be slash in price by nearly 40% after launch. Google has kept this phone as expensive as they could. The OnePlus fold is great, but their quality control is just bad and they are doing nothing about it. If Google could make a foldable like the OnePlus open with the T4 chip and drop the price then you have business. But with the good 5 always on sale now; it still makes sense to get the Samsung fold in the states for right now.

    Few questions:

    2. For the remarkable, are you able to use it in a dark room and brightness won't attract attention? Planning to use while writing notes in movie theater

      I guess the hype or craze for foldables pretty much died down, but I do see foldables like the z fold catching up if only they could provide more diverse aspect ratios, as well as improved cameras.
      So far Samsung pretty much improved a lot in terms of durability of folded screens, but they could do better.

    Absolutely! Every aspect of the Pixel fold is better than the OnePlus open software updates. Long-term updates, cameras, video, AI size, build materials design and it's not Chinese. Cheap garbage OnePlus is dead to me since the OnePlus 7 pro. Just an upper phone with a different branding on it the crease also disappears when you open it fully. You can only see it from a very very tight angle

    The automatic NO BUY regarding the Pixel Fold comes from it using a 2022 SoC.

    The $1,800 price for any foldable phone isn't the problem. It's what you DON'T get for that price that's the problem.
