Have to disagree with them there .. They won’t be the standard until they get solid water & dust resistance , And make the inner displays more durable . Even then , They’re cool and all , But for every day use .. They’re not that practical . I love my fold 4 , But after a few weeks , I started to miss my S22 ultra .

[@kind2de]

I do agree Foldables will have a market now that it's being accepted by enough people to say the current future looks bright.

I opened my Z Fold 4 up at a party i couldn't believe everyone was so shocked, they kept asking me what kind of phone was it, apparently the Fold series still hasn't reached everyone.

[@coler2277]

I'm a machinist and trade worker, recently upgraded to the Flip 4 from Apple. Not having that whole screen always exposed (granted you have the little display on front) is so much nicer. I'm known for checking a email and my hands are usually dirty with oil or grease so not having to smear that on the big screen just to look at a text is nice. Also it's a little more of a comfortability factor knowing only the back glass is exposed when it's pocketed. I go through phones like a mad man so I'm sure I'll end up putting this through a stress test sooner or later. Curious to see how it's battery and toughness stand up over a year or so

[@coler2277]

@@mikivli so the crease where the flip folds has a white horizontal line and the bottom of my phone screen is bleeding, nothing to do with my job but i think I possibly closed it too hard? Idk and on top of that atnts warranty is a hassle and a half.

[@wilsonfernandez8636]

I work at a go kart workshop and use a fold 3 as a daily driver. Because of my work flow I can't treat my phone as I would like to, sometimes it gets placed in surfaces with some metal debris, handled it with dirty hands, has suffered falls either closed or open, and has had contact with water in some occasions. It's worth noting I'm using a case since day one. One year later the phone has dents on the hinge, some scratches on the aluminum borders, the film over the inner screen started to form bubbles around the area of the crease, so in the end I had to remove it and it's been in this state for 3 months now. Also, I noticed some weird swelling around the crease, as though the screen is separating from the aluminum chassis, so now I have even more to bear besides the crease itself. Recently I started to note a very small scratch on the upper part of the crease in the inner display and from what I read apparently is a crack that will start to grow in lengthwise. I was planning to keep this phone for another year but now I will have to take the trade in offer here in my country to upgrade to a fold 4, luckily my phone has been accepted! I know it's not ideal, I would not be forced to upgrade had I went with the traditional slab phone (my previous S10+ is still going strong!) but after a year with a foldable, it's hard to go back. I can read manuals with ease, watch pictures in more detail, edit documents on the go while if needed have another sheet open for consulting and Chrome open for some quick search... You can do all this in a traditional phone (I could in my old trusty S10+) but doing the same in a bigger screen is faster and way more convenient.

[@MobileAura]

@@wilsonfernandez8636 Thank you for posting this I am extremely happy that they excepted your trade in and I’m sure you felt like an absolute boss getting thousand dollars for your fold 3 which you couldn’t even get if the phone was in perfect condition on the resale market. ☺️ I got 450 bucks trade-in for my three year old S 20 ultra that has a big section of dead pixels and I probably could only resell it for like 200 or 250 and that’s before the eBay fees I absolutely love Samsung trade-in. My expected shipping date is December 26 but my friend who has a fold three said that it ships a lot faster than they say is this true from your experience? How much faster did they ship the phone to your house compared to what their expected shipping date is? Ty!

For any Fold users, I'd recommend going into the developer settings and raising the "Minimum width" between mid 700s to low 800s. It makes content flow better on the inner display. Adjust to your liking.

I'm not sure that foldables will become the new norm, but I love my Fold 4. I have been pleasantly surprised by the fantastic performance (something I've not been impressed with in the past with Samsung's software) and battery life. At this stage, I can't see myself going back to a regular phone. Emails and multitasking are just so much better on this screen, and I am needing to pull out my laptop less during the day. Yes, compromises are made as many apps are not well optimised for the bigger screen (Instagram is awful) and it's definitely not for everyone. But I am using my ipad mini a lot less now because of this phone.

May not be the norm... but the z folds are still selling really well.

Switched from flip3 to fold 4 and the screen size when folded seems almost same as my flip3. I have small hands too so the only struggle i have is holding the screen when im lying down. It fits my palm but isnt very comfortable holding since i have to super stretch my entire hand / palm just so i can hold it. Using it with 2 hands (when spread out) is really the way to go. Another gripe is that some apps arent realy optimized for fold4's size

[@HSHIN19]

Upgraded from my S22 Ultra. Pros: Great battery, front screen is big/small enough for one hand, inner display is crazy nice (esp at night), multi-tasking, pretty good cameras. Cons: Some apps aren't optimized to use the inner screen, so apps like IG will use full screen, but when you view stories, they get cut off sometimes. Another example is KZbin. You can expand the screen so that it is full screen, but a lot of the picture gets cut off. Other apps that I use will utilize the full inner display nicely, such as Tik Tok, banking apps, spotify, etc. Also, the phone can be a little heavy, but as a guy with bigger pockets in my pants, it hasn't really made a huge difference. Overall, I LOVE this phone and I'm glad I upgraded

[@Schrsmnymkr]

I’m the opposite I actually am trading my fold 3 for the s22 ultra. I’m not impressed with the minor changes that I’ve seen from the fold 2 all the way to the 4. The s22 ultra or Note seems more like a perfected design in my opinion. Not to mention I won’t have issues finding a heavy duty case for it, and the s pen can be stored within the device. Checks the boxes I think 🤔.

Basically the option to zoom to fill when watching youtube videos instead of the original format that way I can get full screen. I use zoom to fill all the time when watching youtube videos and there are 3rd party video apps that have the option to watch the video in different aspect ratios. I wish there was a toggle for on and off and choose the aspect ratio when watching youtube videos.

I have one. The only way you can beat it is in the camera department with a Samsung Ultra or an iPhone pro. You can get an iPhone with a more powerful chip but that doesn't really matter. The standard iPhone 14 has the same chip as the 13 because Apple knows phones aren't taking advantage of it.

For those that don't know much about camera sensors, the motion blur is a compromise the camera takes in low light situations, shutter speed needs to be slowed down gradually to allow enough light in to give you a bright image. This is especially evident in night photos. You won't run into motion blur issues during daylight as the phone can take the image at a much faster shutter speed thus eliminating motion.

[@teem5945]

I showed someone the picture of my Z fold 4 and they were flabbergasted at the screen. That screen and Excel is super efficiency. I use the S pen. Multitasking on this phone eases the brain activity compared to conventional sizes. Less zooming is one advantage. You should turn your phone to landscape view if you have the Samsung case with a pen casing plugged on. I have no regrets and hardly see disadvantages. As for the crease, it is the least of a problem because it does not affect my ability to use the phone even with my S-pen. It is not as bad as some make it to be. About the quality of big screen camera, I think I'm not fussy about it because I can see that it's really for video calling, which in any case, the quality is not the best due to network buffering.

As someone that's owned the fold 2 for 2 years I can contest that it's way more flexible convenient and durable then I thought an the fold 4 is that much better

Great video! What was the game you were playing in the beginning?

Where's the wallpaper from?

Great review. I have the fold 4 and used it for a few days and was not for me. My most used apps are poorly optimized. I went back to my Note 10 plus and planning to sell my fold 4 now. I did love the split keyboard.

Same reason I'm going back to iPhone. The screen is absolutely amazing. But the Android apps just aren't there yet. The ones that don't support tablet modes are just blown up, and the ratios are sometimes off. Also the 1 or 2 games I played, it seems like the touch interactions were slightly off because of being blown up. I didn't want to force 4:3 or 16:9 on a huge screen, I'd rather just go back to a native screen like that.

@@CRAZEDSOB yeh plus I have to get a whole new car mounting system to just support the device not falling while driving. I was definitely amazed by the screen but I tried and not for me. It's a great view finder for the camera at least.

This is exactly what I have found. Really wanted to stick with Android and Fold 4, but unfortunately the poor optimisation of apps is a deal breaker. Also opening the phone felt very odd and not at all satisfying. Will miss the big screen and wow factor though.

I went for the s22 ultra. I am still upset that Samsung took away extendable storage but at the same time it’s a better well rounded phone I think. Plus it’s truly a note. Granted the note 20ultra is the last real note but. That design is perfection in my opinion. I had the fold 2 and 3, honestly the changes they’ve made from then to now are minor. Not worth upgrading to in my opinion. Maybe by the 5th or 6th iteration they be more appealing 🤷🏽‍♂️.

N10+ is boss

If they can make that other half of the screen detachable, then ot would be super good. But it should be done in a way without needing too much mechanical moving parts. If you want to carry it, you can do it detaching the extra screen and when at home, attach it for some extra space.
