Great review and comparison!
One thing I would like to point out is, on the Z Fold 4, if you open Internet browser (I don't believe it works on other browsers), then long press on a link, you can drag the link to the side or top, and it will open alongside the home page you are currently on, just like opening a 2nd app, leaving the original page open.
Thanks for a great comparison!
I need to be able to view a documents and fill out forms at the same time with a lot of scrolling on both pages to work down the pages- which would be better? The Duo keyboard would only be available on one screen, the Fold 4, it seems like the keyboard would collapse every time I click off of it
your thoughts?
This. This is the side by side user experience deep dive I've been looking for on these devices, but unable to find. Most reviewers/tech channels just talk about the phones, but few get into the day to day brass tax experience . Thank you.
Thanks for being honest about the what could be a downer for surface !
I might post a video tomorrow about the Surface laptop studio and the weird GHz boost for gaming and how it can be confusing ~
Another good video, Shane. The DUO is by far better as multi-tasking goes. I still cannot get over how freaking thick the FOLD is. Geez!!!!! Keep the videos coming brotha!
I just bought a Duo 1 came in the mail on Saturday, I have you to partly thank for it, your videos help me decide to finally bite the bullet.
I appreciate it, I've been absolutely loving it
Also my favorite thing so far with the phone is actually when I went to my carrier to get it set up I ran into someone with a Galaxy Fold and we were showing off our phones to each other, it was amazing
Great points about the Bezels, the war against bezels is one of those things we are fed in lieu of actual innovation, the number of times I’ve passed someone (of someone has passed me) a device to show them something, and in taking hold of the device I’ve completely lost the item by accidental input - just using this as an example as it literally just happened to me a few minutes ago!
I just find it crazy, the OEMs have convinced us we want edge to edge displays without really thinking about whether we REALLY want them or not.
After having just got a Duo, I would still argue that the bezels should be a little smaller, but I agree, edge to edge isn't something I need or maybe even want
Having bezels also lets me put tape over the selfie camera without blocking off the screen.
they didnt convince us of anything. People were complaining of aesthetics due to phones having huge chins and foreheads. People were complaining that phones had ugly bezels, people were complaining about phones not getting the most out of their real estate. This was the industry response. Notches, popup cameras, face unlock, in display finger print scanner, curved displays, under display speakers, under display front cameras.... all of this is a response to the consumer wanting more phone in a smaller footprint.... more screen and less bezels. They fed us nothing.... they responded to the criticism with innovation
I dislike them for the same reasons, especially have trouble with curved edges on phones because it makes it too easy to fat finger (actually it’s the fat part of the palm under the thumb) the dismiss keyboard button for me (at least on a wide or tall phone like a Duo or Samsung Note)
@@darpinian1 iPhone mini is a good example where it has a positive impact. You get a lot of screen for such a tiny footprint. Real shame they aren’t continuing the mini, it’s bezel is just about right as well
Excellent comparison! You touched on all the important points!
Great to see you back Shane. Great video and comparison, I have the Fold4 and still think Duo2 is better at productivity.
The biggest difference isn’t design: each has strengths and weaknesses, and it comes down to preference. The gap (no pun intended) is that EVERYBODY knows about the Fold, whereas the only advertising I remember for the Duo was the “flippin’ it around” ones from 1 1/2 years ago. My niece has a Fold 3 but complains about the width and could never understand the multitasking. I showed her my Duo 2 and she immediately got the concept… but she had never heard of it before.
That may be a good thing, though, considering the debacle of the original Duo launch. The Surface Pro didn’t really get the push until version 3 when it was a polished product. Maybe Microsoft will use the same strategy with the Duo.
Probably talking to Windows Central they seem to think Microsoft is very committed to the Duo
Great video again, Shane. The other things I might mention is the ease of multi-tasking if you're also using an actual Microsoft Surface and drag and drop.
For now the fold for me, battery life last twice as long, when closed I have a regular phone for quick photos calls or whatever with out opening device, duo 2 is still a great device but will be waiting on the 3rd version of the device
that wasnt the point of this video... it was purely multitasking
@@darpinian1 well at the end he mentions everything else so it was the point of the video. The question asked was how much does multitasking outweigh every single advantage the fold 4 has over the duo 2
What is your regular phone
If only Microsoft were to have continued the Surface Duo line of devices...sadly it appears that this will likely never happen. It's a real shame as it is still the champ of multitasking even after the OnePlus Open was revealed.
Great video discussing the pros and cons of two great devices!
I personally prefer devices with a wider screen and the current trend of 21:9 format just does not work for me. Z Fold 4 just feels too slim, and the slightly wider aspect of 16:9 makes for a much more enjoyable screen experience in my opinion. I bought an Xperia XZ2 as it was last model before the fad of tall thin devices arrived.
The Duo 2 is about as good as it gets for me! I think it might be a 4:3 ratio there, but I love the screen space!
Excellent and well articulated comparison. Subscribed !
I think if the duo had a single screen with the same functionality (don't change anything in software but just make a single folding panel) I'd be more willing to go back to it. The fold for me takes it right now because they software is just a little more optimized (in my experience) for the device itsself. The popup windows on the fold really make a difference. Balancing the checkbook twice a month is just a lot easier on the fold than the duo (bank app, sheets, chrome, and calculator) without needing to switch back and forth between different screens. When I did have the duo I just couldn't get past having just 2 apps. Even the LG dual screens could have 3 apps.
I love hearing this kind of feedback from someone who has actually used both, since I'm planning to eventually get a Duo 3 or a competing folding phone, depending on the specifics when the time comes. I’m curious, did you try installing a floating window app on your Duo 2? I have one on my Pixel 2XL, so even though I only have one screen, I can have another app floating in a resizable window. I think this would work great on the large screens of the duo
What is the widget you are using that displays the day of the week big with an outline? Thanks!
waited on this, lets goooooooo. RIP Copper brotha. Happy memories overcome everything.
Welcome to the gun show!!! Love your vids, keep them comin.
Once again. Awesome video and just perfectly explained. 👌🏻👍🏻
Love this in depth comparison
I like the way duo is better, I love that when I select certain things like a link it opens on the other screen so in return I can do both things or not stop what I'm doing, it's also great for reading and typing a phone number
I agree with you. With my eyesight the narrow size of the ZFold4 is a drawback if I want to split screen. I am still looking at the Duo 2 as the preferred option. I have had a hands on with the ZFold4 so I have had a chance to compare and although the multi display is nice it hasnt convinced me yet.
Duo does give you 2 complete separate apps which is great, but you can run 4 + on the fold 4
I just got a z fold 4 would you say that the main screen durability is any better than the z fold 3 I switched from iPhone but my ocd is making me worry about the main screen I'm very gentle with my devices. Do you think it should be fine to stick with the fold 4? Thanks!
Thank you for suchs great review! I think I'll wait till the z fold 5
Very nice video Shane. The best 2 app multitasking is the Duo 2 of course. Z fold 4 is mostly for those who need one larger/table like screen. Im sure they do not really multitask on it. For me the best from factor on a folding phone is the Oppo Find N2 fold which unfortunately does not have a international version. Hopefully the OnePlus V fold is similar. While i used both Surface Duo 2 and Oppo Find N2 fold the Duo is a secondary device whereas the Oppo could be a daily. I don't t really remember how the back gesture behaved when the multitasking was on! I miss the Surface Duo but for sure is not even close to being there yet!!
Fold4 looks nice except for the general chunkiness and the crease. I would use it in landscape orientation when opened 100% of the time. (And like Dan Rubino I'd want it to fold the other way). Haven't found myself wanting to open a third or fourth app yet personally.
Also yes to the bezels! Do people not have thumbs??
Separate displays does it for me on my duo 2. I still have my Samsung galaxy note 20 ultra 5g. I don't care for the Samsung galaxy fold devices because the screen wares out to quick white spots plastic screen no thanks wider and thicker is better.
The swipe back on the app only works if you entered different things within the app .
So if you were to type a search in on the fold in split screen then swipe back it would go back to the home page of the play store but if you never did anything in the playstore and press back the fold knows you didn't do anything on that app so back means back to full screen on the opposite app to give it priority because it knows you never did anything .
Also on the fold when your in one app you can tap the screen and a small bar appears at the top and tap that for split screen and choose any app and you can constantly do that in split screen or when viewing one app without ever using the dock or side panel. If you don't see it you have to turn it on in labs it's called show multi window with one window
My surface duo 2 has stopped making phone calls on T-Mobile. The incoming and outgoing calls go straight to voicemail or just end. Is microsoft going to fix this? If I power down, put in a Verizon sim card power up the phone and switch back to the T-mobile sim it works fine for awhile.
Cheers for another helpful Surface Duo review Shane 👍
Hello Shane, I would like to know how you managed to hide the camera opening when you rotate the samsung z fold? I have a z fold 2 and I can't hide it, every time I turn the phone it shows me the strip and I lose a lot on the split screen. Thank you and I love your material.
Hard to recall how this working on Z Fold 2, but install Good Lock in the Galaxy Store as well as the Multistar module. There may be an option in there.
Nice video
Real informative
Which phone is better to do power point and excel working sheet ?
What day widget are you using on the Z Fold?
He gets up early love it how he takes his time and loads the videos...
Can't wait till the Surface Duo 3 or Pixel fold comes out. The Duo form factor with no split in the middle I think would be the best
Thank you very much for uploading this video and giving us an insight of these beautiful devices, I didn't know the features that were hidden in the Surface Duo 2, indeed, it is a very great phone.
Thanks for the great review Shane, I am Pro duo and always will be. But not nitpicking but you said duo2 can only have 2 apps running at once with the fold can run 4. Well technically duo can run 3 rather than one. Aside from thanks for the reviews and keep the duo alive and the great content. (2 apps and a video running all at once)
I find the bezels useful when I hold the Surface Duo in portrait(the screens on top of each other).
Your reviews are always so informative
Just a note: there is yet ANOTHER way to launch multi windows on the ZF4. If you don't want to do the multi finger swipe, go to Settings > Advanced Features > Labs and select "Show multi window menu with 1 window." It'll put a small grey bar across the top of any app that'll give you a menu that does the same thing the 2 finger swipe does, but without the awkward gesture
Well, I now have both devices. Just couldn't resist the price of the duo. I am so pleasantly surprised at how much I like the duo. I kinda thought the two screens would annoy me but I actually like it. I agree that multitasking is much easier for me on the duo. I don't even mind the split as much as I thought I would. I watched a movie the other day and after a while I just wasn't paying attention to the split. But when I want just a tablet experience I usually go for my Z Fold 4. Now here's a weird comment. If I had to pick just one, I'd probably pick the Z Fold for what I do. But if I never had the Zfold and bought the Duo first for the outrageous price that I did, I would have never bought the Zfold. Does that even make sense? Finally the only reason I can't use the Duo for my daily driver is become as of Jan 17 2023 it is no long is supported by Dexcom which is my diabetes meter and I have no idea why. They just simply stopped supporting it. Even the APK app just won't work. Frustrating but anyway, loving both devices.
Shane, regarding clicking internet links on Fold 4, if you use Samsung Internet, then if you click and hold any link, you can immediately drag it into a split or pop up view and not lose your original web page.
Yike, the Z Fold really looks like a brick in the hand. Multitasking is really subjective, but I agree with the gesture control per app, makes so much more sense on the Duo. You scan the internet about the Zfold, most people's idea of being productive is watching something, while scrolling something else.. I feel the Duo definition is replying to emails while taking notes in OneNote. Very different use case. ;)
I was considering selling my warranty replacement Duo 2 when it comes back and buying a refurb/used Fold 4 off eBay. My Duo 2's SIM is currently in my S10e so it would be less hassle to move my data over via Smart Switch to the Fold 4. However, after watching this again, I'll stick with the Duo. I remembered how much more annoyed I was trying to multi-task on my Fold 3, as well as getting frustrated going back on the wrong app. I just wish Microsoft would create an equivalent of Smart Switch.
Good to see you back. I hope you are doing OK, Shane
Trying my best to move forward for the sake of what's left of my small family, but not without great effort.
I just upgraded from the LG V60 (always with the dual screen case on) to the Fold 4.
I know the Surface Duo is like the V60 on steroids (minus maybe the cameras), but what made me pick the Fold over the Duo 2 is that with the Fold, I really feel like I am getting 2 devices in one. I love having the smaller front screen that I can quickly either add notes or to dos, respond to messages, basically things that are quick and suited for a smaller screen.
However, when I need a bigger screen or to have multiple apps running, I can unfold the phone and have what I think is a great size screen for a tablet. To me, it is almost 2 completely different experiences where as with the dual screen concept, its just like I have 2 screens.
With all of that being said though, if you gave me a Duo 2 I could easily make it work and would very much enjoy the wider screens and more seamless multitasking. At the end of the day though, I like the smaller phone aspect of the Fold and then have the ablity to open up the larger display. The mulitasking options on the Fold are amazing too.
@@viperz22 That's funny, I was just about to comment on how much I like the classy look of the duo.
Does the work internationally?
Both are fantastic phones! Lovely video.. thanks..
after owning both devices I get things done faster on the duo multitasking is so much fun , texting is better due to the wider screen, handling is better of the duo due to the slim designand weight distribution , my battery last longer on my duo also . but I do miss the camera , no hinge interruption , good lock , and samsung dex . But I don't reget making the duo my main device I have no regrets in purchasing a duo again since 12L and animations at 0.5x has really made it a joy to use . just wish apps would stretch when you have it rotated .
Shane, I think all is about muscle memory only. To conclude that Doo or Fold would be more intuitive is in my opinion not right. I give you an exampüle based on what you demonstrated. I am used to the behaviour that the back gesture on Fold applies always to the current app, independent of whether I use the back gesture from left or right. You said, it should apply to the left app if it comes from left and to the right app if it comes from right. That would drive me crazy while you are used to it. And what if both apps where located on top of each other? What would you expect then? Gesture from left should close the top app or the bottom app? In this case, applying the gesture to the current app seems to be more logical. I would say, Fold's behaviour is perfect for the Fold and Duo's behaviour is perfect for Duo. They have two completely different concepts. And their respective users appreciate the respective UI as designed.
I feel on that. However, if you used a DUO before, you'll definitely agree that as far as multi-tasking goes the DUO destroys the FOLD.
@@williamcopeland2617 I think they are not comparable. I for myself would just adapt my workflows to the concepts offered by Duo and get happy, too.
@@williamcopeland2617 I think the fact that the Fold can have more than just 2 apps open at a time means that it it can more than hold it’s own against the Duo. I think it’s more what a person is used to, than one being the king of multitasking.
For instance on the Fold, I can have RUclips, twitter and Reddit open at the same time, AND have my chat apps, discord, email, instagram and the rest of my most used apps ready in an onscreen bubble tray, that will open instantly for quick interaction, then minimize instantly when I’m done, allowing me to return quickly to what I was doing, without skipping a beat. That’s something the Duo just can’t do. Yet I know there are things the Duo can do that the Fold can’t do. If either of us “had” to switch, the learning curve would probably be a pain in the azz for both of us.
@@AhmazinSKM I'm that guy who had to switch and the learning curve has been a nightmare....I started with duo 1 then duo 2...cracked my screen and nobody can repair it....out of stock across the globe.... Cost me $400 to supposedly upgrade to the fold 4 and I feel like it is a downgrade in every way except the cameras.... Multitasking is the whole reason that anybody would buy a duo 2 and it is much much more difficult on the fold 4
I will still choose my Duo 2. I do wish inking was more front and center, but I lost my pen at the gym. Smdh. So, for now, I will hold off on buying another, unless I catch another sale, like I did the first time.
On the fold 4 you can long press a link and drag it to the sides of the screen to open it in splitview. Still subpar to the Surface Duo though.
I have both the SD1 and SD2 but still keep going back to my iPhone 13 Pro Max. iOS is just more fluid and polished than Android plus everyone I communicate with uses iOS so iMessage and FaceTime are important. I tried using Airmessage but was still missing messages and FaceTime calls.
Certainly if the Z Fold 4 were 1cm wider, the outer screen would be in 18:9 or 16:10 or 16:9 format, but the inner screen would be almost perfect without being panoramic, perhaps close to a 3:2 and not as 4:3 (as now) or more 4:3. Gestures are like any big screen OS, Windows 11 has gestures and it also involves 1 more tap or drag. It is the difference between having a device with two screens or one and there will be those who, due to the way they use it, will prefer multitasking with one or the other. It depends on the use and the day to day of each one.
I've got to say, I was a little concerned about the narrow front screen on the Z Fold and was considering the Duo 2 partially for having the wider option, but after using the Fold 4 the last few days, and coming from the S22 Ultra, the one handed operation is like a whole new world of convenience. Still not great at typing or swiping on the keyboard, but for just casually scrolling Twitter or the RUclipss, it's fantastic and super comfortable to hold
i guess its more of what u want in the device, a phone with a dual monitor second or a dual monitor with phone functionality. up to the person usage case.
Fold 4 is my go to. The mini tablet is best for what I do at work. Dex is the added bonus. If they can get the inside display to act as separate screens it's GG.
The Z Fold is maybe a better phone than Surface Duo 2 but a Few things I remember when I had my Fold 3 that you can't multitask Instagram on the Fold like you can on the Duo.... That fact and the fact that the Duo is a much better mini laptop type of device since you can dedicate one whole screen to being the keyboard. I have pretty large hands and I find the wideness of the Duo irreplaceable compared to other phones... I'll always pick the Duo over the Fold or anything.
I'm about to get my second Duo 2 over the weekend and I'm so excited... Best buy insurance plan I got I'm only paying a $280 deductible. NICE!!
I had to smile when you said about whether or not multitasking is a brick for us, because that is why I won't buy a Fold 4 - I had the Fold 2 and sold it within a week, because it looks like a brick, feels like a brick in my pocket and I just really didn't like the fact it was like two skinny phones plastered together to create one screen. But the Duo is unapologetically two screens - it's not a brick, it's a productivity device and I love them. So yes, for me it wasn't that the multitasking concept was a brick for me compared to a stone, it was that I still look at your Fold and think "brick" lol. Love this and yes, the bezels.
Go try to put the V60 with the dual screen in your pocket. I didn't realize how much of a brick that phone was until I switched to the Fold 4 lol. Still a great phone though!
Great analysis as usual, Shane! I'm hoping that more dual screen devices will become available. I'm not a fan of the fold phones at all. Prefer how the Duo handles dual screen usage for sure.
Might be to late to get an answer, but if you use Kindle can you have 2 pages open over the 2 screens like a true book?
Iirc, yes. I know play books does this
The Surface Duo 1 is just ideal for me - it's not exactly a phone in my use case, but it is a very good tablet experience. Watching Netflix in a rumbling bus is impossible on the Fold since it does not offer a proper kickstand mode. Duo on the other hand is super flexible. And I prefer the 1 since it is just perfectly designed for closing it without a camera hinge. I can live without a proper camera since in exchange.
Microsoft could also borrow some of the multitasking ideas from android 12L for windows 11 tablet mode.
First of all, good to have you back and keep hanging in there. Great overview and even being a big Duo fan, it's always good to see how other concepts are doing. For myself, Duo is def the winner 🙂
Thanks for the walkthrough, I'd love to hear your thoughts coming from the Fold 2. I jumped straight from the Fold 2 to Fold 4 and I've got to say I miss the sharper corners on the display of the Fold 2. That and the fact that the Fold 2 seems like a slimmer device overall.
Is the Duo lighter and less bulkier? the reason i stopped using my z fold 3
It's just a bulky
If the fold "folded" along the x-axis instead of the y-axis I think it would be greatly improved (better suited for the different configurations and taking best use of screen real estate). The ability to open three and four windows is cute, but aside from a calculator, is rather impractical.
Realistically, I never really find the need to "span" a video as the screen size is sufficient enough on one screen (Duo) AND I can orient the device to stand on its own.
Simply put, the devices are different in the way Football and Soccer are different, but both are called Football, played on a field, by 2 opposing teams, with a ball, etc.
Comparisons will be made and use cases will vary ... For me it's DUO, but a cover display of any sorts would be welcomed
Excellent review! Each has it's advantages and disadvantages. However, you can get a brand new Duo 2 for under $1000 at Best Buy or through Microsoft (before any trades) while the Fold 4 costs almost twice as much. Viewed through price, the Fold 4 is in my opinion not twice as good as the excellent Duo 2.
EXCELLENT!!! 👌
Conundrum that I have to replace a 4 year old Note 9, and have a Duo 1st generation for family use. Plus Duo 2 is so much cheaper now.
I really wish the duo and duo 2 could split screen multitask too though… so we could have 4 total apps open if need be… that would have been so cool…
You could have news headlines, DJIA chart, weather radar, and a texting app open all at once. That'd be great.
A proud owner of the Fold 4. Able to place it either in my front or back pocket.
I do a lot of driving for work. I run Waze on my left screen and am able to use the phone or any other app on the right screen without causing any issue for my GPS. Duo is the ONLY phone that can do that. Before I got the Surface Duo, it would never fail that I'd miss a turn because someone would call me when a turn was coming up. That never happens with the Duo.
I do a lot of driving for work too and have been putting Maps in a floating window on the Fold 4 or have it pinned as a 3rd app open.. The screen size is so big any way I put it that I can still see where i need to go. Granted my driving is mostly to the same areas so I don't need to always be looking at it. Getting my V60 with the dual screen in 2021, having maps open all the time but still being able to use my phone was a HUGE improvement.
Pretty much my reasons for why I kept the Duo 2 but traded in my Fold 3.
You can open a link in another window on the fold 4. Long press the link on your webpage and drag it to the other side of the screen that you are using.
This is only true with their web browser though
Great video as usual Shane. So I have gone from my Duo 1 to the Fold 4. Loved my Duo but I think the Fold is getting close. It's a tap and then a 2 finger swipe to go to split screen instead of a tap on the Duo. Add to that Samsung notes and the pen in a silo (which also acts as stand and protects the cameras) Flex mode if you need to stand like the Duo (albeit iPhone 13 mini size screen) and lastly being able to go full screen without the gap makes the Fold 4 a worthy productivity competitor.
Recently watched a video indicating that the hinge on Fold 4 is somewhat spring loaded and this makes it difficult, if not impossible, to use flex mode.
@@jameskirklin5431 no not at all 🙂
Can duo2 run 4 apps in window mode? Or run 4 apps at the same time.
Only two
If only LG G8x were wider. It would have made the dual screen experience waay more useful, especially when reading or with productivity tasks. The wide aspect ration kinda gimps it in that regard.
Just a breaking news - Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 is getting A12L, i.e. the same features as Fold4. On Ultra version, it makes even more sense and makes it a productivity leader in Android world... But the size is a bit too large for carrying, of course 😀
The task bar is very interesting. I can’t wait to see Microsoft’s adaption of android 12L. Hopefully Microsoft styles it so that it’s more consistent with windows 11 fluent design system.
biggest problem with z is those freaking skinny screens. The duo gives me the width that works for content while still being able to hold it folded.
I wish LG was still in the game I felt they were so close with the removable 2nd screen when they left
i still have my lg v60. no reason to move to the fold or duo.
I had the Surface Duo 1 and now Fold 3. The duo was easier to setup multitasking, but the Fold can do more apps and can have floating windows.
I think it can be simplified to: The Duo is easier to multitask, but the Fold has more functionality when multitasking. I have Fold 3.
Watching your videos on one of my phones screens while scrolling through memes is a joy. #Duo2
You CAN drag to open a link in a second window if you're using samsung web browser
Very limited
I prefer the duo over the fold hands down. I like the separated, wider screens. So much easier than all the gestures on the fold when multitasking.
@@Cricket2023-ODI-WC good information to know. I'm watching this video on my Fold 4 now.
Would love a fold with duo aspect ratio and thickness
@@duncanduncan7859 I wouldn't say that big but geez louise, they need to make it bigger. It's just common sense at this point.
@@killasic Maybe not as big as duo, but a mini size. I would like Oppo Find N size + thickness of Duo
Either way, I just ordered fold 4 upgrading from fold 3.
@@duncanduncan7859 Man, I've never, ever had a phone this dope. I can't put it down. I can never see myself going back to a regular phone.
Is the surface Duo 2 still getting updates
Last one was February
The fold is a good device, but it's just way to thick for me l, and I think the aspect ratio is better on duo. Throw in pen support and it's over.
I never even heard of the surface duo. I didn't like the folding screen of the Galaxy and don't care for Samsung who I switched to Apple from, but i'd have probably bought the surface duo if I knew about it before getting my iphone and ipad. Well, maybe in a few years they'll still be making them :\
Can Bill's company product call like Samsung Z fold?
I'm going back to Cali Cali " I DON'T THINK SO " just as LL Cool J says.
Are you asking if Duo can make phone calls? Of course, it's a phone?
Seems like I'm in the minority with regard to the finding the fold 4 completely underwelming. It is still not wide enough when folded and still is way to thick and unwieldy. The onmy reaI advantage it has are the cameras and better battery life. The duo is still
much better fr getting things done. I will stick with the duo 2 untill the duo 3 comes out and then I will either switch to it or to a in a year or two.
The Fold's multitasking is very similar to my idea of optimum for multitasking. Dragging and dropping apps where you want them, plus having the flexibility of an unbroken n canvas is pretty sweet. I'm afraid Microsoft is going with a folding OLED for the next Duo. Maybe if it is treated like the Duo--ie each side of the screen is its own area, then it might be OK. But say goodbye to the thin profile for sure.
Fold 4 - Apparently if you select and drag a link within an app or browser you can then force it to open in a seperate window, similar to how you would launch a second app with the task bar.
This is true but it only works with the default Samsung browser and it's one ofy favorite features of the phone
I hope they make dou 3. It’s a beast phone
Link opening from youtube, is a big daily use case, hope samsung updates its, one more thing it can update is persistent volume changer,
Can't be productive if your phones dead. Would've been nice to see a battery life comparison. 5 hours for Duo 2 versus 12 hours for zf4. Looking forward to the next video!
My Z Fold 4 battery has been slightly better than my Duo 2. Nowhere near what you're claiming here.
For multipurpose surfaces duo 2 is ligit. Microsoft need to work on there software more
Cries in LG V60
Samsung wants your business.
Just let them know and they will do it with a toggle option in labs.
Thank you for your support. It always makes the experience better.
I have both, but the MSFT is easier for my brain to 'process' two screens as two tasks, just as two monitors compared to one monitor with 2 windows... Just how my brain works.
A month later and just updated to 12l. Yeah, Duo 2 is going to be my daily driver - especially because it supports dual sim. Duo is still the best book reader on the market. So far the update is nice. Z Fold 3 will be my backup and wifi mini tablet.
