    You’re the first reviewer I’ve seen say they like the outer and inner display having the same app layout. Everyone else would complain about it and I never understood why it bothered them so much. Your explanation of your organization makes complete sense and it’s how I also would arrange apps. I’ve been heavily considering switching from iPhone to this foldable and I think you’ve convinced me now!

    • @jonvaliagas
      @jonvaliagas  Месяц назад +2

      Don't get me wrong, customization and having more of it is nice. but to be honest, setting up a foldable can be a pain. And having everything done once, vs. having to do it twice is so much better (for me) and a reason why I like the Pixel experience on the Fold! :)

    Can you make a video comparing the iPad mini to the Pixel 9 pro fold? Basically the benefits and downsides or each?
    I have an iPhone and like the idea of a foldable, yet the price and durability concerns hold me back. Not to mention an iPad mini is literally a third of the cost of a foldable in the US.

    Right there with ya, I am most certainly loving the pixel 9 pro fold in my hand 😀
    I also agree that some more customization options would be nice. Specifically I feel it would be nice if the aspect ratio settings for each app could be set for each screen and allowed custom values such as changing app height. Simply because some games go full screen without hiding the nav and notification bars, others automatically draw between the bars. Something to force the screen space used Is what I'm getting at I guess 😆

    Also enjoy the P9PF moving over from Samsung Fold 4, which I used for 2yrs. I do miss a lot of the Samsung extras for tweaking (Good Lock), most notably sound assistant and separate app volumes, and Samsungs much better multitasking options (popups that you can minimize to bubbles). That being said, the Pixel fold just feels nice in the hands, the full sized front screen. I also dont like Samsung's separate screens for fold/unfold..abd that narrow unusable front screen. Looking forward to the Vegas stuff. And yes 3000$ w/taxes for the 512gb version in Canada is highway robbery without top of the line everything and no extras in the box (like a case). It should at minimum have a free case to protect a 3000$ foldable? I shouldnt have to spend another $100 to do so.

    Im in the process of returning my samsung fold after just 1 day use of it, I just find the samsung fold front screen is a little to small for me I dont want to have to open it up everytime I message someone cause the front is to small. I wish I would have gotten the google fold 9 instead cause I am a iphone user I just went back to my iphone 14 pro max until I figure out if I want this google phone or not, I just wanted a foldable phone and plus you really have to decide because the samsung phone is like 1,900 thats alot for a phone and the google phone looks more like my iphone I like my iphone 14 pro max cause I use the front alot but when I watch youtube and twtich making it bigger is better. Anyways is the battery good on the google phone?

    -thin bezels
    -Sharp corners (not rounded)
    -Snapdragon SoC, the latest
    -Faster charging (wired esp.)
    -One UI (for foldables)
