Hi. Some issue with the edit. thanks for pointing it out. I will make sure it is corrected in my next one. Battery life in this one is superb. End of the day around 4ish hrs of SOT i always end up with more than 50-60% left.
Thank you for the review. It would've been great if you took the zoom pics outside on distant scenery. Anyways thanks for the efforts. I tried the zoom and compared it with the vivo x fold + and it was really impressive and definitely has been improved.
What does "Save combination" actually do though - why didn't you press it and show how it works? I can only guess it creates an app pair on the home screen, but is that the case? Can you also keep that app pair on the dock at the bottom? Cheers
@@Cool_Saf Thanks Saf. Would you be kind enough to test something for me with multitasking? There's literally one thing preventing me from buying this phone at the moment. Would you be able to install a game I play (which is usually a full screen game) called OldSchool RuneScape and try to horizontally multitask it with RUclips? I believe it won't work because the game is considered a fullscreen app, but could you maybe take a look into the device settings to see if there's anything that can help this? I would seriously appreciate it so much. Thanks!
@@Bobbylechat94 yes u can do selfies with main camera but the question is cover screen feature which vivo does not have, which is weird as many folding phones have this feature which is very useful. Hope they bring it in an update
@Cool_Saf wow thanks brother for quick answers I gonna buy it the only thing I love about the s pen is note taking when I have to do quick note taking for food ... that's the only reason to use s pen
I do not understand on screen fingerprint readers when you can have them on the power button. The latter is far more accurate, speedy and inexpensive. Plus, I can unlock the phone as I'm pulling it from my pocket.
Exactly my point. The side fingerprint unlocking is just more convenient as thats where our thumb naturally rests. It would have made it much more easier.
OrginOS is Chinese ROM, but still android, any reason why Android Auto, Google Wear OS watches doesn't work. What about other watched e.g. Huawie, Xiaomi watches? Any other apps issues especially Google Wallet, Microsoft apps?
Hi. Due to the Chinese ROM android auto wont work. Not just this phone any phone having Chinese ROM wont work with Android auto and wear OS due to the restrictions. Apart from that all apps work including Google wallet which i use all the time and works perfectly. Coming to watches, any android smart watch which is not running on wear OS should work without any issues.
@@Bobbylechat94 yes recently ive heard there is a workaround to get galaxy watch 6 work ive never tried it myself. Same is the case for Android auto. But these are workarounds and not straight forward and need some tweaking i suppose.
Vivo stated that around August they will have an update so that Android Auto will work, so don't waste your money on a global version to get Android Auto.
@@Cool_Saf Does it have a full phone Cloud Backup for Free, like Samsung ❓️ Is it also just for 30days or more ? Will we have to give up all the GoodLock features, which will be a bummer then to use this phone without it or does this have any of those features
@@iZacq Hi. Unfortunately Vivo does not have anything like Good Lock like what samsung has. And yes, it does have cloud backup, but i normally use the Google cloud to backup my data so never used Vivo's
Thank you cool Saf. Please compare the call volume on ear mic (not laud speaker) to samsung s23 or s24 ultra. Apparently there is a day and night difference in quality and laudness..
fingerprint reader on external and internal screen, impressive as Chinese brands give you everything in a phone of this range, and Samsung cannot give you a charging cube, at least in its top-of-the-range phone
O yes. U r spot on. From a consumer point of view, its not fair. Not even a charger brick on the box which is unacceptable. Kudos to these chinese brands who give u charger, case unlike the other brands like apple, samsung, google which is really frustrating
In hardware w foldables Huawei, Xiaomi, Honor, One Plus and Vivo are winning. Samsung has my favorite software but on hardware Samsung has massive work to do w the fold 6 ultra or I'm importing the other brands
@Cool_Saf yep if Samsung gets lazy I'm debating between one plus open or honor magic v2 porsche or vivo z fold 3 pro tough decision. I hear one plus open has best speaker but you see what I like about one ui is Samsung TV , Samsung Health , ecosystem with my Samsung TV , Bluetooth s pen stylus support and gestures,
@@morm2173 Yes, you are absolutely spot on my friend. Having camera module which is 3 years old and having the deepest crease and very average battery and demanding very high cash is not going to work for samsung. they need to do better than what they have. The Chinese foldable have taken it to an new level all together.
Looks like the camera absolutely destroys my fold 5 lol. Being forced to have the same screens inside and outside is just stupid though it drove me nuts on my oneplus open. That should be such and easy software fix for vivo
camera is brilliant in this one, which i really like. And yes, if only they implemented like One Ui where u can change/keep different screen layout for inner and outside. Maybe a software upgrade.
@@redstang70 Thats true. Only this and oneplus open have a good zoom for a foldable phone. And Thanks again for your kind words my friend...Much appreciated...
Really nice phone but I think I gonna miss my galaxy watch pfff so ya of I can't get smart watch connected... I need to find a other smartwatch that can connect with this phone
The music is way to loud and super annoying. Its not even needed in a review video. Also doing a speaker test with the music playing on full blast? Surley one can't be that stupid?
Why the music is playing throughout the review? :( i cannot hear your voice, only music. How is the battery on this phone please? What is screen time?

Hi. Thanks. Sure I will keep that in mind. And yes, zoom is good in these.
USB-C Video out Isit mirroring the screen?
Did you have any issue with chrome ? I think I've seen it mentioned that only the beta version can'be intalled...
No the chrome works fine
Will the Huawei watch ultra watch work on the phone and the ear buds
Yes, they should work fine
Great review simple yet informative! New sub here! hope your channel will grow in the future!
Thanks a lot my friend...much appreciated 👍
does the front screen have slight curves around the edges or r they flat?
Slight curve
Which one to buy fold 6 or vivo fold x3 or one plus open pls suggest
Hi. My order will be.1. Vivo x Fold 3 Pro, 2. One plus Open, 3. Fold 6
what is the music u use around 3:20?
Hi. Its ES_Three Count (Instrumental Version) - Nbhd Nick
Hi, does it have in the build in wallet the option to add access cards?
No it just has the google wallet option so u can still add multiple cards to the wallet
@@Cool_Saf Looks like you have uninstalled the vivo wallet which I am reffering to...
What does "Save combination" actually do though - why didn't you press it and show how it works? I can only guess it creates an app pair on the home screen, but is that the case? Can you also keep that app pair on the dock at the bottom? Cheers
Hi. Yes you are right it saves the combination and saves it on home screen

Does it have the cover screen photo feature
Unfortunately no. Which i hate. Hope it comes in a software update
does it have dc dimming? if it does where to find it in settings?
Don't think it has DC dimming
How many years does vivo guarantee software updates?
They guarantee 3 years of software updates & patches
Can you install nova launcher on it? Get a custom OS running on it?
yes, u can run Nova Launcher in it.
Does this device have the cover screen photo feature like the other ones
Unfortunately no. Which i hate. Hope it comes in a software update
Pretty sure it has it. Watch the tech tablets review, he does selfie with main camera

You are right samsung has a lot to catchup. I just feel they are letting themselves down.
Even in the software front. i personally feel Oneplus software is the best in folding phones, Oneplus implementation is good
