    I have the Z Fold4 1TB, and this phone is absolutely awesome! Phone, tablet & computer all in one device!

  • @nickthaskater
    @nickthaskater Год назад +13

    I use the inner screen of my Fold 4 at least 70% of the time. It's just too good not to. The front screen is great in a pinch, but I just love using the inner screen too much.
    The Fold 4 has been a great purchase. It has replaced carrying a laptop and tablet for me. Instead I carry a small folding keyboard in my everyday carry bag (much smaller and lighter than a tablet or laptop) and the Fold in my pocket. Then, when I get home, I plug it into my desktop monitor with USB-C and use Samsung DeX which allowed me to sell my desktop PC. It's so nice to have everything on a single device that I can just pick up from wherever I left off from not worrying about synching or transferring files.
    I do not get the hate for the cameras. They're fantastic. The under-display camera is perfect for video calls - it's not meant for selfies and whatever. But on the unfolded screen taking a Teams video call, it's great and looks as good as any laptop camera in that situation.
    As for the price, you can pretty much always get it for a discount, either straight up or with a trade-in. If you pay full price for the Fold, you're not trying hard enough.
    Speakers... You're the first person I've heard complain about them. They're outstanding.
    The OS updates being slow are an issue with your carrier, not Samsung. Most people outside of the US have no issues with updates. They just released the March update *before Google did on the Pixels*.

    I didn't think I would like the s pen case but I actually really do like it. For one it's easier to grab the s pen then on the s22 Ultra (or S23) .. and secondly I actually like having something to hold on to when I'm holding the phone open... I rest my fingers on the pen holder.

    Great review. I'm opposite, I use the front 30% of the time. LoL it is buttery smooth when I do use it tho. I have an iPhone too but now I'm online using it to communicate with my family since they are all in the apple ecosystem. I'm loving the large screen for content and multitasking. I agree the speakers are shockingly weak. I'd love to see better speakers, cameras and battery in the next edition. I have no complaints for performance.

    Hey man, thank's for a great video. But let me just share some with you. You complained about the 'gab' there was when the phone was closed. Ok, let me tell you when this phone was made NOTHING was left to coincidence, the gap is there because of dust and maybe some small hard from your dirty pocket(if they are like mine) and you close your phone after a good video at the beach, and scratches WILL come, or would, for they found a way out of that problem :) If it close tight, it would be bad fast.

    I love my Fold4 but if they don't put their flagship cameras in future releases, I'm going back to a Galaxy. The camera is garbage. I came from an s20 Ultra and got better photos with that. Don't even think about zooming and taking a photo.

    • @umeumeume
      @umeumeume Год назад

      There is nothing wrong with their camera or zoom. It zooms at 30X and is great compared to their competitors. It is a 4, not a f 14 or f23. Those products that have been out for a minute didn't get this much criticism, but now the energy is here for the 4. The Galaxy line are not competitors as they have strengths to appease their consumers and compete with non Samsung products, not with the fold.

    The building quality of this phone is a fucking trash my girl friend paid 515$ to change the screen after one drop and gest what she dropped the phone protecting cover , while the phone is clean from out side with 2 small dents the henge was damaged and she had to change the screen .
    Not because the screen is damaged but the henge, when she took it to Samsung service center they said even thought the screen is good they can't fix small damaged part and they changed the whole screen , Haa 515$ for screen only this phone does not deserve it price just wait 2 models release and buy old model for huge discounts since there is no much deference since huawei left the market
