MKBHD with his huge hands - "you can't really unfold it with 1 hand"
Linus with his baby hands - *flip-flop-flip-flop* (with one hand)
MKBHD: am I a joke to you
Did MKBHD ever daily drive a flip phone back in the day? Because that is where Linus picked up his skill.
Mkbhd is a bit of a sour puss
He also said he couldn't open the galaxy buds one handed but that's literally how i open them everyday..
The guy plays frisbee he should be able to open a folding phone with one hand lol
i read this like pewdiepie
flip-flop
flip-flip-flop
Linus: i feel like retiring
Also linus: imma start 8 new chanels cuz i need them plaques baby
I kinda like that he made a new channel to just play with new stuff instead of continuing to burn out on back-to-back deep dives/comparisons on the main channel.
I think in a recent Wan Show they thought of making a PC case with the plaques.
for heatsinks
I'm waiting for side panel left, side pannel right, etc channel's for Luke's pc case
It's sad because I prefer the videos like this. Casual and more personal, hearkening back to the early days of LTT being just Linus. He gets to be himself (more) instead of just some internet personality.
Also a benefit that the videos are a lot easier to make too!
When its closed, it reminds me of my old GameBoy Advanced SP
I have good memories of that and the advance
Same
Bruhhhhhhh
Didn't have the sp but i know what it looks like i have a gba micro the best gba
Exactly what I was thinking!

Almost ;)
@@ShortCircuit no..., he/you did, don't deny it 😂

Flip phone technique is a skill the younger generations have yet to master. If they get the bugs out of these and they become common the "kids" will discover the satisfaction of closing the phone the hang up on people.
@@steampunkskunk3638 He has a skin though, without it this phone is so slippery feels like it will fly out of your hand. There's also sliding fingers inside technique before flipping, but that means at least one fingernail on the screern. Then the flip it out hard, and you might damage the hinge. Even linus mentions his phone looks like it over-opens..
@@steampunkskunk3638 Idk if this is another case of technology being adopted slower outside of america, but over here smartphones werent more than a gimmick until like 2011, so unless youre younger than 12 or smth youve probably atleast played around with a flip phone.
It's all in the flck of the wrist...those who had flip phones knows this
Yeah , i really do not think it was designed to be flipped violently , that thing will last probably 15 minutes with linus the flipper using it :) .
Does anyone really buy a flip phone just show people they flip a phone ????
Gameboy Advance SP that's what this phone reminds me of when closed
itsGuy oh my god yes
I can totally see it

9:19 "watching movies on the go, but mono speakers" ... I mean, who the hell watches movies on the go with the phone's own speakers? Use headphones when you're in public, bud!
Yeah I know like I dont think I have ever used my phones speakers
Also, him trying to scroll down from the top, you can do it from the bottom to bring notifications and control panel, (I've the Z Flip) you can also activate gestures with the power button in the settings. I don't even have big hands, I've medium hands. Even at home I use headphones on my iPhone 11 Pro Max which has excellent stereo speakers.
Call of depression Intimate warfare I don’t think I’ve used a headphone in a year
I don’t watch anything in public
When you're sitting on a bench with a bud and want to show him something i guess ?
I bought a jack splitter for that, though. So i can plug 2 sets of headphones in the same phone, making speakers irrelevant even in that use case.
There's more to being on the go than being in public - stopping overnight at a friends and watching a movie in bed, cheap hotel with no movie options or simply taking your phone to the loo (or in the bath if it's got good water resistance)

gotta get you're wrist into it. TBF tho, I am not sure I would be that crazy with a phone I spent over $1,000 on

How many RUclips channels you want?
Linus: Yes.
I"m glad they're still working on it but, I'm not interested until it's actually a good phone or makes some sort of sense to buy. Right now it's just a novelty. 3 or 4 more iterations from now and maybe they'll have something I'll want to have.
Yeah ikr, feels like it's still in the "early adapter" phase
TBH, almost every modern smartphone has pointless features.
Yeah but for the price you might as well just buy an S20 Ultra for an extra 20 bucks and get a bigger screen, more RAM, better camera, 120hz refresh rate, more powerful processor, etc.
Right. This is going to make sense in about two years
Agreed. I don't envy the design choices. Do you want a flip phone, a nintendo 3ds , a laptop, a smartphone? Yes this is a proof of concept that shouldn't hit the market, especially for $1500, but I'm sure glad they are exploring this sort of stuff.
I'm still waiting for the Note Fold that comes with a hinged stylus.
Or a Nintendo DS pen
@@Mr.Thicket Like the extendable one from the 3DS or something. Yikes
A foldable stylus? I wanna see dat
i read it as nokia fold and now i actually really want to see a nokia fold.
it would be the most durable one for sure.
Been using mine since it released and had no issues, traveled with it used it on the plane to watch movies, used it as GPS when driving around, use my air pod pros with it with full features, works with my google home environment, charges extremely fast since yes it is a small battery, and hasn't slowed down on me once. I use the case it came with and haven't had any issues with it. The portability it has when putting it in my pocket is amazing. This is coming from using a Pixel 3XL. I think its a great phone, does everything I want it to do. Yes its still new tech but for what it offers I think its great.
And lets be honest here...the key selling point here is flipping to answer and flipping to end a call like a boss.
i absolutely love your reviews! well spoken, funny, and i watch your reviews to stuff i dont even care about lol youre very entertaining=)
I'm glad that he reminded me that this isn't Linus Tech Tips because I literally forgot xD
Dude I forgot last time I watched a video on here and didn't subscribe and forgot the channels name lol. Only now am I finding it again.
This channel shouldn't have to exist; it exists mainly because Pornhub isn't interested in SFW content.
If RUclips had ANY competition in the online video space (sorry, Floatplane, but you will NEVER matter in 9^9^9^9^9^9 years) they might have innovated at all in the last decade. They haven't. A creator with a "channel" should be able to arrange his content into "shows." LGR for example, he has Tech Tales and LGR Things and Oddware and Thrifts and such. Back before television came down with Stage 7 idea cancer, a "channel" was a broad topic sometimes representing a collection of creators, and it was time-shared by "shows" or "programs" that were more narrowly defined by format and topic. Sci-fi channel showed Star Trek reruns, Outer Limits (the old black and white and the very underrated 90's color reboot), Stargate SG-1, lots of sci-fi movies, etc. Then Stage 7 idea cancer hit and last I saw they had wrestling and Eureka. Point is, LMG should have a channel under which they could produce several shows, Tech News, product reviews, build videos, WAN show, server room explosions, unboxings, etc.
You can _almost_ achieve that with playlists, but you can't subscribe to a playlist and a lot of creators don't playlist. So they have to make additional channels. But, the modern internet is Google, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit and Nothing, so...I guess let's all just keep dying long and painful deaths while trying anything we can think of to self-pacify.
Linus once said: "I am not mad, I am just disappointed"
Samsung: We can't let that happen again. How do we stop it?

Seems so petty and entitled cos Samsung didn't send him one... lost a lot of respect from me.
interesting seeing the initial reactions for this after also seeing all the cracked screens
This looks promising to me, I'll be keeping a close eye on the next generation of this if there is one, I'd be interested in owning a phone that compacts down but has a strong screen (both in res, size and actual strength), it has potential but this first version is a bit meh.

wrong , the problem of ergonomics and huge slabs phones exists too the extreme in this day and age .
@@mikldude9376 And flippidy flopping the phones every time I want to use them is a great step in the direction of optimal ergonomics? Don't think so...
Yeah really? Right now, yes but in the future? We never know. Just like what Steve Jobs did to Apple produk an iPhone. The first full screen phone. That time almost every phone are have a QWERTY keyboard on the phone but Steve see the problem with it. He change it and says it as revolusioner and yes indeed he do it. Even he is not the first do it but he did it good. He see the problem with it and fix or solve it!.

When a phone starts costing more than a medium-high end gaming rig i stop paying attention and will see which of the new features will remain in place 5 years down the line.
Or in this case a new old feature...
What's High End Today Trickles Down Tomorrow :)
You mean mid high end smart phones 1400 dollars is around the mid high end smartphone
Mobile phones have nothing on offer that's worth paying for above about €200. At that price you get a decent gorilla glass screen, adequate IP rating, more than enough battery life, enough speed, enough memory (All you'll ever need if there's an SD slot) and often 3 or more cameras that can take decent photos (Unless you're comparing with actual cameras with proper lenses), NFC capability etc. and they're all running the same apps, so what are you getting for 5-10 times the money apart from less disposable income?
it's expensive because it's a new technology first gen device. Cost will go down with time, and the technology will get better as well

Arakaneï Nope, that would be Zed flip.
Can somebody stop Samsung for making foldable phones
Yeah, the tech is definitively interesting, but I'm still going to wait a bit with this thing.
I'm ok with it not being the latest gen processor, battery life is more important then performance for me, I'd like good audio quality (ideally with a built in DAC), battery life (preferably with replacable battery), good screen quality (not so much in terms of number of pixels but in terms of colors, some variant of a 1440p screen would be perfect for me in a phone as I can't see the pixels of 4k screens anyway in a phone but *would* like a *little* bit more then 1080p), some ruggedness so it can fall down without being damaged, be used for a long time without damage due to wear and ideally some water resistance.
Decent long range data speeds, not too worried about wi-fi 6 and other short range high bandwidth stuff, a decent camera, doesn't have to be the best but needs to be good enough to take quality pictures and ok videos (the videos don't need to be good, I'm fine with the videos just being ok), good call quality with good audio quality when talking on the phone, good mic, at least when it comes to voice quality, it should be easy to hear me when I talk in the phone, for other things I'm ok with some loss of quality if I say play some music on another device or instrument or something and someone else is listening on the other end of a call.
I think something like that should be possible. =)
On the processor side I think I'd be happy with one superfast core (flagship single thread performance), one fast core (last gen stuff) and 4-6 slow but energy sipping cores for the CPU and a decent midrange GPU, decent amount of memory and storage, neither of them needs to be the fastest if the processors has enough cache, otherwise a somewhat fast RAM might be required, but if there's enough cache I think I'd prefer more but slower RAM and rather a big L4 cache in the processor to help with snappiness, possibly with a data management co-processor like the PS5 helping with pre-fetching data from memory and loading data *to* the memory without consuming CPU resources, with slow storage it wouldn't do much in terms of actual speed, but reducing CPU load and ensuring that data is already present in the memory could help quite a lot..
I cant wait for this stuff to reach a better state. I would LOVE to finally get back to flip phones. I was going to get the Z Flip, but after Linus' analysis on it, I'll wait a few more years for the next gen flip smart phones.
"You can stick it wherever you want it"

Good thing "it expands into something much larger"

"You can grab em by the fold and the small hands don't mean anything."
Is there a case for this little toy that looks like a tricorder or communicator from Star Trek TOS?
You can get a bluetooth replica
The TOS Tricorder was more like a portable cassette player of the time... Call it 9" x 6" x 4" and didn't fold. Even the STNG tricorder was quite a bit thicker

Do one on the main channel! I would love to see if it changes how you interact with your phone since it requires you to open it to use it. Might be good to help partially unplug

Couldn't agree more...Haha, Linus seems slightly bias here
Then go ahead and tell me a practical uses that justifies $1400 bucks. In the end it’s exactly what Linus says a waypoint for the final product.
erinator1703 Yes, Linus opinion on this is really honest and funny too 😊
He seemed quite genuinely excited when he first opened it up.
Also, him “criticizing” the satisfaction level of the flip is a real thing. What made flip phones so great when they were at their peak was the satisfaction of being able to flip then open and closed easily, ESPECIALLY the satisfaction of the *clack* sound when closing it. Call it silly, but it’s genuine.

This is the second gen.
Or a telescopic pen. It could extend itself as you pull it out of the phone and vice versa. I doubt it could be made with plastic like the current ones. Trouble is the tip has to be plastic to allow the signal to get through to the pickup coil - perhaps a plastic tip could be the part that extends out of a stronger metal half?
Also is it even possible to put the phone side sensors for the pen inside a flexible screen? Soo many questions!

that's easy to explain: the Samsung designers just played a lot of gameboy advance sp, and they think like "why I don't make a phone with that design?"
I would appreciate a full LTT on this one even though I think it would have the same conclusion. I think It would be good to go in depth with some of the benefits if any and drawbacks of the folding screen itself.

@@roflmfao4life ?
But no it folds like a V, which would’ve been a WAY more fitting name
Fuck no how you pocket that thing?
Chad Burton anyone who had the old HTC slider or maybe even sidekicks would know, it’s a back pocket device to be removed when sitting
I'm a note user currently using a Note 10+ and I have always jumped in on new smartphone tech immediately like with the original note edge(I LOVED the utility of the original edge and would like it back lol) and to me the bigger the screen the better. But I also like and want top of the line specs and features. So when the fold came out last year I almost got it but after seeing the crease and how fragile the screen itself is I decided to wait another gen or so. I'm not gonna hold out until Samsung eventually merges the fold and note series(I'm sure they will keep a cheaper more standard note version around like the normal note 10 last year) because I love the pen. With another year or 2 of improvements to folding screens and hinges I would love to see a fold with a non square tablet sized inner screen for multimedia, a full current note sized fully functional outside screen for normal phone usage, the pen for all of it's usages and Ultra specs and camera. So maybe something like the Galaxy Note Fold 2(or 3) Ultra lol. I even want it to have a curved screen on the front if not the inside also if that's possible because I love the look so much and haven't been able to appreciate a screen without it since it became standard on galaxy phones. I'll gladly pay 3k or more for a phone like that.
You can even see the crease in the middle right out of the box. Fold it a few times and it already looks worn

Agree. Just a milestone along the way. I wouldn't waste money on it, but I appreciate that they are trying to do things that could lead to other things that may be more useful.
I really miss having a flip phone and even with the problems the new Razr and G-Flip have they've been pretty tempting. My big hope is that the first gen failure doesn't stop them seriously pursuing this technology.
Didn't even realize that this was on a different channel till the end
0:22 "...Had to wait for retail availability"
Translation: "Had to wait for dbrand to sell the skin because they are (essentially) the only reason high-end phone reviews are done on the channel"
Samsung doesn't send the phone quickly in Canada...so instead of buying a $1399 phone ...Linus said to Dbrand to send one
what's wrong with that
@@szn00 I'm just pointing out how it seems every single phone review (at least, on the high-end) for the last few years has always been only the ones dbrand has skins for: in other words, the only reason the particular phones we see reviewed by Linus are what they are is literally only because of dbrand. I can't think of any similarly-positioned phone review by Linus in recent memory that didn't have a dbrand sponsorship tacked onto it, which tells me the only reason we get these phone reviews - of very specific models - is because of the dbrand cash and not much more.

Phone review: bigger screen, much camera, smol battery. The end

You know the first thing that I thought of when I saw the phone first time? Those beauty products that is used to put powder thingy on your face, you know that thing with a mirror in it and folds.
Imagine how helpful this would be for girls. There's literally memes about them fitting half their phone in their pocket and it's the size of half a phone.

As a woman, I concur.
@@him4real262 how is it relevant
@@him4real262 Have you ever actually dated "a women" who wears skintight jeans?
Eh, a lot of womens' pockets are like 2 inches deep, and that's if you're lucky. Also it's super wide when folded. Although it might fit in the back pocket?
"i wish closing it would have a better sound"
Nitpick at its finest.
It is $1380.

@@SirGarmaples So...?
well does it affect the whole review of the product? no does it affect other's thought of the product? no
definitely not. cause folding is THE ONLY argument Samsung has to take the 1,3K
so it's not "do you expect it to fix ur marriage and cure ur cancer cause it's over 1k$ ?"
but rather "do you expect it to have a nice folding sound for the extra (I dunno... probably like) 500$?
while I was initially excited with this particular phone when I saw it in the Samsung store, the premium you have to pay for this phone by virtue of fad and one certain feature is not that exciting at all. personally I have grown to appreciate the non-flip aspect of smartphones added by the practicality of casings. I know that this may cater those with small sized pockets but it does defeat the purpose especially when thickness is also considered. while the flip feature is a nice aspect, it's not that new at all and should not command twice the price for a typical smartphone. it's a good alternative but not groundbreaking. I would continue to use the typical smartphones unless my pockets are unable to house them in or ran out of fanny packs. good job Samsung, but I'm sticking with your S20s instead.
David: It looks like you have a case on it
Linus: it does, doesn't it.

Linus: Omg the glass is awesome!

9:10 Linus, if you want to have wide 21:9 wide audio stereo audio, you shoukd have reviewed the Xperia 1 last year.
Try again this time with the Xperia 1 mk2, it has front firing stereo now
I've had a look at the specs for this thing...yes it's cool but its not even a rival to the S10e
Yep not worthy for the price of the z flip
