    I finally switched from iPhone 14 plus to pixel fold pro 9 and pixel buds pro 2 and im VERY happy. The experience is better that I expected and I don't miss iMessage since I have RCS and google meet. I can do so much more with a foldable phone for work (reading a lot of documents, excel sheets etc and compare documents).

    Here are the key takeaways from the video:
    * The Google Pixel Fold 9 Pro is a well-designed phone with a beautiful display and a thin profile. It's also one of the most expensive folding phones on the market, at $2,700.
    * The phone's 1:1 aspect ratio is great for productivity and typing, but not so great for watching videos or using social media apps.
    * The phone's crease is more visible than on other folding phones.
    * The phone is powered by the Google Tensor G4 processor, which is efficient but not as powerful as some of the other processors on the market.
    * The phone's software is clean and friendly, and it includes a number of AI features.
    * The phone's camera is good, but not as good as some of the other cameras on the market.
    * The phone's durability is a concern, as it failed JerryRigEverything's durability test.
    * Overall, the Pixel Fold 9 Pro is a great phone, but it's not perfect. It's also very expensive. Justin is not sure if he will be keeping the phone.
    I hope this summary is helpful!

    Loving it! Google smashed it this year with all the pixel 9s

    I just got the z fold 6. I actually wanted the pixel 9 fold pro but AT&T doesn't carry it. But actually using the fold 6 I'm quite pleased. You talking about productivity? The fold 6 is it. The multi-tasking is ions ahead of the others. The pixel fold 9 is wider than the z6 but the z6 is much more compact and easier to handle.

      My sister just told me that AT&T isn't carrying it. I'm actually surprised T-mobile decided to carry it, since they admitted that Pixels don't sell well with them. Far as the Z Fold 6 goes, until they widen that front display to the size of a normal phone, it's out for me. Had the 3 and 4 and typing on that narrow display gets annoying very fast.

    • @robynkis2075
      @robynkis2075 2 месяца назад

      Switched from the Z Fold 6 to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and the latter is overall a much better device. Samsung has completely dropped the ball by releasing Z6 with yet another front display that's way too narrow to use productively. I just can't type on this thing - and I have small hands. I also like how the Pixel manages to display RUclips videos etc larger than the Fold.

    • @lexus9425
      @lexus9425 2 месяца назад

      You're right it only does 21W. Not even the 9 Pro XL does a full 45W. It tops off at 37W.

    • @hobbitpsi
      @hobbitpsi 2 месяца назад +1

      Yeh it's only 21 watts. However, My Pixel 9 pro fold at max charge lasts me a whole day and into the next day. By the time I'm about to go to bed I'd say my battery is at 40-50%. However, keep in mind I'm not a mobile gamer and mobile games tend to drain batteries fast.

    • @hobbitpsi
      @hobbitpsi 2 месяца назад +1

      Pixels are the best option for any Apple person who wants to give android a try as Pixel's UI is more like iOS, except with a few more customization features, not as much as Samsung's but Apple folks tend to get majorly overwhelmed with Samsung's customizations features.

    considering i paid almost 800 with trade in and black friday deal and it's my first foldable phone, it's great so far. Downside is the lack of inner screen protection and available cases for this phone (but i think that goes for almost all foldable phone)

  • @vmac38
    @vmac38 Месяц назад

    Im good with my Pixel Fold. I dislike the fact that the Hinge no longer opens gradually. Tent mode has basically been ruined, due to the hinge issue on my device. The phone still works and since I tend to spend 85 to 95% with it open. I rarely use my phone closed, unless its something quick.
    This device seemed like the logical move from my Surface Duo 2. I still mis the multitasking ability of the Duo, the Android 15 update did provide app pairs, at least.
    Im not planning on upgrading any time soon. Maybe, 10 Pro Fold might have me wanting to upgrade.

  • @nickthaskater
    @nickthaskater 2 месяца назад

    Considering the ridiculously limited software, it's absolutely objectively not worth it.
    That's aside from subjective things like the questionable aesthetics with the fat and disjointed outer bezels and relatively thick inner bezels, the hole punch inner display, overly radiused corners (literally cuts off UI elements), poor durability, etc.

  • @michman2

    I LOVE my Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Never looked at the Z Fold, no need to. Z is too small, narrow.
    One fixable beef on the 9: To increase Blue Tooth range and stability (a common complaint), turn off A2DP in the developer section. A2DP is an extra step in sound processing that isn't missed in my buds. Otherwise, great job.
