What are your thoughts on the Pixel Fold? Thanks for watching!

It's just ok for me. Samsung is still king, Fold 4 has been amazing and can't wait for Fold 5. Samsung hardware and software can't be touched. You can almost use Samsung software like a desktop OS.

I'm definitely interested I getting the pixel fold I just wonder if it will have a pen.

[@adiposerex5150]

It looks very nice. I always felt that Pixel was the best Android device.

I love your videos! Always informative and the quality is just *chefs kiss*

as a osrs player i love it that you show osrs on your foldables. super helpful, as it would be one of the main selling points for me to get the foldable (if the game feels good to control with the screen size etc). thanks shane! One question: how easy is it to reach the quick-prayer orb on the minimap when playing on the larger inner screen? This is a struggle i have with the vivo x fold 2, its so tall and large that it becomes hard to reach minimap things comfortably, and hard to reach the middle of the screen to navigate/walk easily. I was wondering if this was a lot easier on the pixel fold because of the smaller height?

[@craigclough]

Currently using an iPhone 14 plus but so tempted to get the Pixel fold!

Wait for the next get

[@juliaevans9521]

Do you show the font size adjustment options it has? It's needed for a severely sight impaired user to see if it goes large enough and with bold option

[@MattRobloxYT1]

I think this should be good.

[@johnpineda8478]

I heard the screen isnt to bright outside and it gets hot when outside in the heat

[@aurangzebzeb7259]

Google pixel fold 5 will be worth buying

[@JT74]

Watched this on my Pixel fold. I have to say first impressions are very good. I've had a few Z folds over the different generations but just couldn't get on with that thing cover screen

[@moritz1267]

How is your battery life

[@JT74]

@@moritz1267 pretty good I’d say. It’s got my main sim in so is getting some heavy usage. Comes off the charger around 7am and is usually dying around 9/10pm. I’ve managed 8hrs SoT but average is probably around 6. I’m happy with that as I always charge my phone every night no matter what it is

[@moritz1267]

That's pretty good actually

[@JT74]

@@moritz1267 yeah I'd say it's better than I thought it would be. One disclaimer though is that it's connected to wifi 90% of the time so isn't searching for a signal constantly. The acid test will be when I take it out for a full day

[@moritz1267]

Yeh it will be worse on cell but that's normal I guess . My Pixel 7 Pro is unreal on Wifi and decent out of the house

[@pieroroccaysj]

Super confused. On your Fold 5 video you were quite favorable on the slimmer cover. In this video, you seem to infer there's more you can do on the cover screen. Could you elaborate on your pros and cons for each?

[@ShaneSymonds]

Sure, so the pixel fold has a superior outer display but at the cost of the inner display being a bit awkward for me since it's a tougher hold in 1 hand opened up. The fold 5 has a slimmer and inferior outer screen compared to the pixel but the tablet experience is way more enjoyable and user friendly on the fold 5. So if I had to choose between the 2 I'd choose the fold 5 because of this. Hope that makes sense

[@pieroroccaysj]

@@ShaneSymonds in short, the stockier wider format is hard to hold in one hand making the tablet use case less user friendly?

[@pieroroccaysj]

@@ShaneSymonds Could you explain more why the pixel proportions are harder to hold with one hand in tablet mode? Another reviewer is claiming both need 2 hands and Pixel is easier to hold.

[@jamiehunter3567]

Pixel fold or samsung fold 4 ?? What do you prefer so far ?

[@me5425]

Pixel fold battery life is terrible Only 3 hours sot if that

[@neilmcguinness4422]

Google has made a good first attempt with the Pixel Fold, but to charge $1800 for a first Gen device with a second rate chipset and questionable battery life and poor charging speeds and reported thermal issues under load seems ludicrous. I am fortunate in that I can afford whatever device I want, but I am careful with my money and wouldn't spend it on the Pixel Fold. I would go for the Fold 4, but it isn't perfect and should have a more premium camera system for it's price.

[@jamiehunter3567]

@@neilmcguinness4422 a very fair assessment tbh.

[@MsHackthat]

Id rather have dual screen like surface duo.

[@jfncho]

5:50 the sideways orientation of this phone makes it look like a Samsung Fold with its taller and less wider screen.

[@kg4tnp]

No gap seems to be leading to damge due to foreign objects getting caught between the screens

[@andyH_England]

I suspect that anyone that has had issues is either unlucky or they left debris on the screen before they closed it. You have to understand with foldable that you have to take a bit more care. Checked on eBay and just today there are 25 Folds that are broken being sold. I have seen days when there were nearer 50. If you cannot accept that foldable break easily no matter who makes it then you should stay away.

[@raifordkenneth15]

the pixel fold is a amazing phone goggle did a great job but please it's not better then then the fold and when the 5 comes out its gonna be even better. everyone is happy about the front screen size thats good but that's not gonna make it better then the fold.

Seriously bruh? For $2,000 You can buy 3 iPad minis or a top Macbook Pro. I don't understand to which market does this thing cater really. Thanks for the unboxing. Not my thing.
