    I've been using iPhone for years and just switched to s23 ultra last year to use both devices together. Recently changed to zfold 6 thinking i wouldnt like the cover screen much, but I actually find the cover screen pretty easy to get used to size wise, very comfortable to hold it one hand and typing is fairly easy too, not as bad as I thought

    The outer candy bar style display is underrated imo. It allows me to use the phone one handed. I thought I would prefer the one plus open or pixel for the more natural width, but I think the fold 6 found is perfect balance it's wider then previous folds but still can be used 1 handed.

    • @HeyMarkL
      @HeyMarkL  5 месяцев назад +4

      It's definitely doable one-handed. It's just sometimes apps can be a bit weird since the aspect ratio is so weird. Experience is better on OnePlus Open and Pixel Fold, but yeah, this ain't bad though :)

    Give me Samsung any day. One Plus has TERRIBLE customer support, bad trade in values , and there are a LOT of people who both the One Plus Open who was sorry later. The screens were cracking for no reason, and the hinge was failing. They sent their phone in for repair only to not get it back for 4-5 weeks. Who wants that? But all anyone wants to take about to put them in from the theZ- Fold is the front cover. I even heard one reviewer say that the front cover needs to be like the one on the S24 Ultra. Really?? that is so stupid because once you do that..then the inside cover has to become bigger and when that happens...you have a tablet not a smartphone. The S24 ultra screen cover is 6.8. Come on no one want s a foldable with a front screen that big. If that's the case keep the slab phone.

      So only you are allowed to have a preferences? Samsung customer service is only great\ok in certain parts of some countries. I've heard a lot of those same horror stories on the Samsung side as well. As for what someone else prefers what's wrong with wanting a regular size phone that turns into a tablet? That's the dream for me that's why I have a OnePlus open and stop purchasing Samsung folds it meets all my needs and preferences. That narrow front display was a nightmare to type on I hate the idea that the inside display was the main display. I wanted a great smartphone that unfolds into a decent tablet for when I can slow down and enjoy it.

      You are correct. I have a Samsung experience store.
      35 minutes away from me in the city of Glendale, so I can easily do go there. Have them run tests on my phone. There were a parrot right on the spot. Uninstall, a new inner screen protector and that's what makes Samsung's customer service Decent, because you have official store nearby or places that they work with so your phone can get repaired and you don't need to wait that long to get your phone back

    • @adskee69
      @adskee69 5 месяцев назад +1

      I agree and I don't agree. I switched from folds to OnePlus because all my folds had broken down the middle and I wanted a larger outer screen. I did enjoy the screen, and the fast charging, but them the OP broke down the middle. Two weeks at the repair centre and they wiped it clean. No thank you.
      It's going on eBay and I have a Fold 6 coming on Monday. Other brands may have the edge on hardware, but for software, after sales and warranty repairs, it's Samsung hands down.

    I don't know if it's perfect... but in the US, there's no other options besides Pixel Fold 2 and OnePlus Open. But like you said, pricing is ridiculous for foldables and the Samsung trade-in is very good.

    • @jollyrancherchick
      @jollyrancherchick 5 месяцев назад +2

      Well the title of the video says it’s “almost perfect”. You can buy whatever folding phone you want in the US, online shopping has bridged the gap in that along time ago. However, when it comes to software, there are no other options that offer the versatility and customization (not just aesthetically but operationally) that One UI does. I almost went with One Plus but when I saw someone showing the UI and lack of customization I waited for the Fold 6. Hardware is nothing if the software isn’t there to take advantage of it.

    • @sadcub1
      @sadcub1 5 месяцев назад

      ​@@jollyrancherchick Not really... Sure, you can ship a banned phone into the states but it will be wildly expensive to ship, cannot be used with a US carrier, and is not guaranteed for any of it features that rely on location to work properly. Some apps may not work. Also, there would be no customer support for the device. So, it is not a favorable option. So you can't really "buy any foldable you want in the US." Not unless you are very rich and have a lot of extra money laying around. Most people in the states are not crazy rich so that is not an option.

    Honestly, they are two different flagships that cater to different audiences not everyone is ready to jump into a foldable and still like the candy bar design. And yes, the s24 ultra has the better cameras that are superior to the ones on the z-fold six and it has a silo to put in the S Pen something the fold six still doesn't but the Z fold six. It's still Superior because not only are you getting a device with a 7.6 inch display. You're also getting a decent size cover display and a phone that offers you a much refined and better way of multitasking that allows you to open not only windows in split view, but you can also have floating windows on top of split view. Yes, a battery could be a little better and improved. But if you're the type of person that enjoys multitasking watching content on RUclips or have a subscription in applications that allows you to watch sports then it's a no-brainer does Z fold six is a device to have because it does things better than the s24 ultra in my opinion and both are designed for different audiences and people buy the phones based on what they're looking for and what they want in the device.

    But i cud not make any swtich
    Cause i was spoilt with folds rich offering, since i use phone for my work, for designing and editing, u just cant go for any other phone
    But to my shock
    The fold 6 just improved all the short comings
    That is cover screen
    It is much more usable, I'm typing all this from the fronr screen
    And the square form factor makes all the diff
    Especially with typing,
    Now the only thing is durability which only time will tell
    For that i just brought two years of Samsung care
    All hppy for this phone
    Other then the price
    If samsung really brings down the price ans free service this can easily beat any phone

    It’s a nice folding phone, but perfect is stretching credibility, it is a long way from that. A few reasons:
    1/ Needs a larger battery; 4400mAh is the worst of any fold.
    2/ The front display needs to be wider in line with the competition; deal-breaker for millions until then.
    3/ No s-pen silo.
    4/ S-pen does not work on the front display.
    4/ All three cameras are subpar.
    5/ The price, still rising and awful value outside the US that do not have trade-in deals.
    6/ Still issues in China with complaints about failures.
    7/ No anti-glare front displays, especially the front.
    8/ Needs 16GB of RAM for a $2000 device now AI is going to be a thing.
    9/ The inner under-display camera sucks and should be killed off.
    10/ Too thick.
    11/ Needs better cooling.
    12/ Charging remains slow compared to Chinese rivals.
    No phone is perfect to be honest but the Fold 6 is one of the furthest folds away from that description.
