Pixel Fold Review: The Price Isn't The Point

[@JerryRigEverything]

Great vid - Looking forward to getting my hands on one.

[@alphaspartan]

​​​@@JB-gz5ygcited to see the breakdown Mr. JB. I really like the Z Fold 4 due to the Samsung software features and it's much easier to operate with one hand on the front screen. It took me months to adjust to using a small screen compared to a traditional Samsung phablet size screen but I don't think I would ever want to go back to using an ultra wide screen when there's a 2 in 1 option like the Z Fold. But hopefully the competition from Pixel will make the Z Fold line drop their price or improve their software/hardware faster.

As a Z Fold 4 user I'm really glad to see Pixel Fold cause I cant wait for future of these devices and we NEED more contenders in this space.

As long as google stays committed to the fold concept then apps will come along eventually. I look forward to where the hardware and software will be in another few years.3+ apps at once is nice on my Galaxy fold 4 but the cover screen is just too narrow for other than a quick notification triage. The pixel form factor is definitely more appealing

[@bug-kong]

This is the aspect ratio I’ve always wanted! I’ll never be able to afford this one but I hope this wider form factor survives the slow transition to mid-range phones. I loved it on old iPads. I loved it on my blackberry passport. I’ve stuck with iPhone SE instead of any of the taller/thinner screened devices. Fingers crossed companies keep making these extremely readable and usable devices

[@mailforjoel]

The diameter of the front screen is what phones used to be until a few years ago when they all went tall and ridiculously narrow for unknown reasons.

[@seantaylor861]

I've had the Pixel Fold for a little while now. I had the Z Fold 4 before that (technically still do) so can definitely compare the two. I was a long term iPhone user before that. I've been really surprised by my time with the Pixel. I went into my time with the Pixel thinking I knew what was coming. My short summary is that it's more than the sum of its parts. Also, there are psychological aspects that are hard to reason prior to use. The Pixel's choice to make the outer screen a primary screen and not a cover screen is important. It has a greater impact than I expected. Unfolding into landscape also has a bigger impact than I expected. I dismissed it as you can simply rotate the device. Obviously you can... but you don't... certainly not as often as I thought I would. There is something about using the Pixel that makes it my favourite phone. It's not something you get by looking at the specs on paper. The Z Fold, be that 5 or 4, is the better phone on paper. It is the better phone, in the same way that the iPhone is the better phone than all of these. I'll take the Pixel Fold every time, warts and all.

[@TheOldSchoolCrisis]

I have had mine about 3 weeks now and went into the store fully intending to buy a Pixel 8 or Pixel 8Pro. I had seen my friend with his Z4 plenty of times at work and the phone just seemed gimmicky to me, the outer screen is practically unusable to me as the keyboard is so cramped, and they chose to make it the same height as a normal flagship which is the part of "large" phones people hate the most. All of this is to say, there was about a 20 minute window before the rep was able to get to me so while I waited my turn to be seen I started messing around with the different Pixel phones they had on display, including the Fold. The SECOND I picked it up and held it in my hands, I was sold. The form factor for this phone is absolutely 100% perfect. When it is closed the screen on the front has the width of a standard flagship, but is shorter! My biggest gripe with big phones, again, is that they are so tall you can't practically use them one handed if you need to access something at the top of the screen. This fixes that. It is also a bit thicker than your standard slab phone, which is NOT a downside to me. I can hold the phone with so much more confidence since there is so much more to grip. I went in with the intention of buying the next flagship Pixel and came out with a fold. My buddy who daily drives the Z4 saw me using it and had so many questions about the device, so I let him use it for a few minutes just to see how it felt and what he thought he would be missing out on if he switched. He was pretty much sold right then and there, again, because of the form factor and the usability of that outer screen. He is pretty much committed at this point, his next phone will almost assuredly be a Pixel Fold 2 or 3 (depending on what is available when it comes time to upgrade.) I can not stress enough, this phone as you said is not the sum of its parts. It is an amazing user experience despite not having the raw numbers on paper that other phones offer, and I PRAY that all other folding phones are taking note of it's design.

Excellent review sir! If the Z Fold5 is as same as the leaks suggest, think I'll sit out this product cycle and hold onto my Z Fold4. It's been great at multitasking and surprisingly durable, so don't think that keeping it for another year will be a problem. That said, having a wide front screen will be a key reason I upgrade when the time comes. I admit, I do miss a lot of the Goole-y features that come with a Pixel. So, most likely, there will be a Pixel Fold 2 in my future. Thanks again for the excellent review Mr. Fisher!

[@savedr]

See, that's honestly one thing that would make me get a Pixel over the Galaxy folds, I want that wider screen, enough that I'd pay more for less even. It's just too good an idea

Amazing review. I absolutely adore mine. Perfection? No. Hardly. But the positive changes this brings to the foldable experience over the Z Fold 3 I've neen working with over the past couple of years greatly overshadows the flaws. I use this, much as you said, like a normal phone most of the time, but it's still as glorious as ever to be able to open that middle screen when you need a tablet-sized view. And I LOVE the horizontal aspect ratio by default!

@@tennman The point is that Samsung and Google's partnership. Samsung is not leaving behind these form factors and Google wants Samsung to succeed and get more Android Devices out there. That's why Google spent the effort with the software on Android for large screen form factor with the assurance Samsung will stick with this product line.

[@wmurch3]

Samsung is pushing the tablet ui forward more than Google. it's app developers that aren't doing the work because there just aren't a lot of people using android tablets to motivate them to do so. that said, for most of the apps regular people use... this shouldn't be a problem.

Yes, I have had two experiences in the last year or so. Both went well and I was kept up to date all the way. One was dead pixels on the display (new phone) and the other was a smashed display (replaced). Despite shipping 1000+ miles away they only took a week or so to be sorted!

Just curious Michael, what camera do you use to shoot shots of the phones you're reviewing when you're out and about and for the B-roll?

[@damiengrief]

It looks great for a first gen foldable. I'm generally not a big fan of the Pixel design (both hardware and UI) but it's great to see real competition in the space in the US. I LOVE the book style foldable and think it'd be better than Samsung's taller format. I love my Fold4, but I've also had some hinge reliability issues. I'm hoping Samsung and Google's next gen devices get more durable, dust resistance, etc. And while things look pretty good for the first generation, I still think Samsung has Google beat in terms of multitasking software on the foldables. S-pen support, 3+ apps running at once, easier ways to switch between things, different home screens for when the device is open vs closed. Those are things I can't easily give up.

[@TheMrMobile]

We agree on Samsung's lead in multitasking software. As Dan Seifert was saying on the latest Vergecast: the Fold 4 is like a PC in your pocket. Pixel Fold's value proposition is quite different.

[@damiengrief]

@@TheMrMobile Yeah for sure. I just want that PC in your pocket in a book form factor, a better camera, a longer lasting battery, and dust resistance. That'd be perfect.

Don't think you mentioned it, but wish you did...and which is a huge deal to me, is the fact that you can't have different layouts between the outer and inner screens. That's a big fail.

Even when I'm not actively researching a phone to purchase I watch your videos to keep up to date with the latest trends in the mobile world.

Tensor G2 is the biggest deal breaker for me coupled with the overheating issues. It's not the price that's the problem whether it's $1,800 for this or $2,500+ for the Huawei Mate X3. It's what you DON'T get for the price you pay that's the problem. Tensor G3 should've been in the Pixel Fold.

[@GeneralChaz9]

No kidding, $1800 for a chip that is a couple years behind in performance. Plus, I had to give up on my Pixel 7 due to Tensor G2 issues. Overheating during basic tasks and especially during camera use, poor signal reception in areas the Qualcomm equivalent would be fine, not roaming properly and dropping calls, and finally the unpredictable battery life. Questionable decision to drop it into the Fold, but maybe they saw it as a gamble anyways so they thought it was fine. Hoping the Tensor G3 knocks it out of the park, otherwise this trio of Tensor chips is going to have a poor legacy.

[@andyH_England]

To all techies out there. Please note that the tensor chip is not targeted at gamers or hardcore power users. This is obvious and complaining about something that every techie knows is not aimed at them seems superfluous. If you want more power buy something with a more powerful chip. The Pixel range is more about ML and AI. This is explained in every review. I cannot understand why we still get complaints.

I think a lot of people underestimate the advantage of having a narrow cover screen on the Z Fold series - one handed usage. I'm glad Samsung is sticking to this design for the ZF5. When I'm on the go I want something I can pull out of my pocket and use one handed. If I want a bigger screen and use my phone with both hands I'll open it up. That's the purpose of having a foldable device. Don't give me something that's going to make me use the outer display more -that's not the reason I bought it.

Also, why did the Pixel Fold come out so soon before the next Pixel, which will have the Tensor 3? I really can’t wrap my head around that.

Little Easter Egg at 2:08 where Mr. Mobile is reading a research paper labeled "Failure analysis of thick composite cylinders under external pressure" just a few days after the loss of the Ocean Gate submarine which used a composite cylinder as the hull of the submarine.

The editing on this video O.O Woah, so good!

I have waited all year for this video. Mr mobile's take on the pixel fold. I'm already sold but I needed him to do the review before I pull the trigger. Great video as always

Happy with my Z4 Samsung and next year upgrade to the Z6

Michael .. Its so comforting the fact that you got 1M subs ..Kids who were shitting in pants when you were already reviewing phones got more subs than you ..but the fact you atleast got 1m makes me less worrysome now .

[@JessicaFEREM]

to me it seems like the outside screen should've been a tad more narrow, as I think, the fold's "remote control" design lends itself to better one-handed use.

[@Soraking007]

nah that design is so bad the narrow screen is unusable. folding phones should be a regular pone that give you a tablet experience inside not a cover screen for its main display

[@EthanCarey-l4c]

@@Soraking007a tablet is not a square. That's what you get with a normal phone experience in the front 🤦‍♂️

Actually enjoying more and more your tea time breaks. Aside of that, great and refreshing review as usual, keep on the good work 👍🏻

Commenting using a fold 4.. I am a happy user. And your videos are lovely.. As always!!

Finally, pixel fold review from my favorite reviewer. Someone who truly reviews phone as it should be done. Thank you for your service Mr Michael. Appreciate the information that you have provided. Your review on z fold 4 is the one who sealed me in on the foldable and no regret since then.

[@Jezee213]

Great video as always! I have a question Michael, When you get sent a review unit, do you have to erase or factory reset before it's sent back?

[@TheMrMobile]

Thanks! And ... you don't "have" to, I guess, but why wouldn't you? lol - that's a lot of personal data in there!

[@Jezee213]

@@TheMrMobile oh for sure, I was curious if it was a thing that the companies ask before you send it back, but yes! always factory reset.

Great camera comparison! Very thorough review! Rest well see you soon
