I got mine a week ago for 850 refurbished on eBay and it's in great condition
Sweet!
Drop the price, put the flag ship camera set up and use the Snap Dragon chips for god sakes. Do that and maybe they might have a reasonable fold.
Agreed, the technology is their Google just won't use it. Maybe Pixel 8a Tensor chip will be based on a Mediatek Deminsity SOC.
They put a lot of money into creating their own in house chip, they will never use snapdragon again. Similar to what apple did with intel and their own in house chip M series.
All the manufacturers hold back on specs. They need hype for the next gen😅
Thank you...Tensor G3 isn't Mid-Tier honestly it's people don't understand what it's made for or maybe they just don't want to understand
Bingo
I see why people say that though - sure, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the Dimensity 9300, the A17 Pro and the Exynos 2400 all outpace the Tensor G3, but the G3 is definitely not mid-tier (although great at €1k, it's not that good when the phone is the better half of €2k). Besides, even midrange phones have become powerful enough for 95% of users, and although companies will start to push console gaming - Apple already has - there's still a long way to go before that becomes mainstream - the iPhone plays games at native 360p and uses MetalFX Upscaling to upscale it to 720p, but the quality looks pretty soft. Still, it shows potential.
I am actually considering getting the Pixel Fold 2. It would depend on the design and if they are going to put same Tensor chip as the upcoming Pixel 9/9 Pro.
I said this on a few of your previous Pixel Fold videos, but my working theory is basically what you said about Google: it's a cash grab. Google knows that releasing their first Fold is risky and there wouldn't be many buyers, so rather than go all in on the Tensor G3, they decided to save money and use the Tensor G2 chips. In addition, they want to make as much money as possible on the few units they do manage to sell, hence the high price tag. Pixel Fold 1 was just a trial run to test the waters of the foldable market. Pixel Fold 2 is gonna be the real flagship foldable.
Our fault... knowing what the fold was made of specially after knowing what the 8 and pro would have and still we fell for it 😢
@@brucejuice350 lemme pour you a shot
Perhaps. But, the pixel 2 is still gonna be a high-priced money grab phone.
@@diagnostician001 probably also true. Best case scenario is they keep the same price as the first Pixel Fold, but this time, the device actually has the hardware and battery life to make it more worth it. It still probably won't actually be worth it, but more worth it than last year 😆
@KHuyPh I've never had or used any pixel phone, so my experience with them is zero. I use the galaxy fold 5. I like to peak in from time to time to see how the competition is doing. That being said, I don't know if the pixel fold 1 or 2 is worth it. Would it be worth thr experience to ditch my fold 5 for pixel fold 2? Probably not, but I'm always curious. Also, I'm with T-mobile and none of the stores in my area ever had a review unit in store so I never got to play around with one.
Just reporting my pixel 6 pro got the February security update. ....seems less laggy opening apps not sure what they fixed but I'm impressed
Google need to make a lot of big changes to the pixel fold 2 for the price. Great video keep up the great work💯♥️♥️
I cant lie...i switched from the fold to the 8 pro ...an i miss the pixel fold once you get a fold you never want a regular phone ever again
It would be great to see the foldable space heat up and get some price competition going.
Can we please stop telling people that they're getting $1000 off a new phone, or $1000 trade in for a broken phone? You're paying $800 for the privilege of being stuck on a contract for 2+ years. (I know they love to say "it's not a contract"....spoiler...it's a contract)
You actually do get 1000 dollars off. Your cell phone carrier credits some of that money towards paying off the phone.
I feel like the whole thing behind Google products like the Pixel was the price points for the quality of product they were delivering. Now that the price has gone up near to what the competition is offering its making it harder to choose Google products. The whole magic behind it was the quality and great value. Thats not the case anymore they want be to up there in price with the competition and thats just not going to work to their benefit. They should stayed in their lane as the affordable quality product for awhile longer at least.
Tensor 4 on the next pixel fold would be a good move. All the new devices would have the same feature set.
Im saving my iPhone 15 pro max for a trade in on something. Pixel fold 2 could be it. I really want a fold and I don't see the point of having to slab phones. S24 ultra will be my everyday phone and the fold will be my media consumption phone.
Got a Samsung galaxy s24+ on release date. Color and case!!! Amazing. Traded s10+ got phone free!!!! Gotta say the s24 is my new s24+. I'm enjoying its familiarity of the apps and like how it's easy and comfortable to hold. Thank you for helping me choose the one that is right for me😊 Appreciate all your time.👍
If it doesn't have the camera visor, that's a huge mistake😊
1:05 that's what Microsoft did with duo release 😳 . How could they have now learned from Microsoft mistake 😕
7:12 The tensor 3 are doing excellent with the Google Pixel 8 Pro therefore the tensor 4 should perform exceptionally well with the Pixel Fold 2. And considering every other fixable defects that Google will address with the Fold 2 it will make Pixel Fold 2 a promising foldable phone.
If the fold 6 has the promised wider outer screen, it will be a better than all the other foldable's, they can't compete software and spen
yes
This companies will empty my wallet😂😂
Watching this and thinking yes it would have been better if G3 had been in the PixieFold I agree they rushed it out to quickly and it's annoying as hell that all the features going to the 8 series luckily I have the 8 also. As for the battery it's fairly decent for me no problems I can't complain there though I am looking forward to getting the PFold 2. I agree that nobody should have paid the asking price from G I got my PixieFold mint condition for £640 after trading in two other devices and it's the 512gb version there was no way I would have paid the outright asking price as it was ridiculously high. I can say though that I genuinely love my PixieFold and it's become more my daily runner than my Pixie 8.
Google probably didn't want to allocate G3 chip resources to a "beta" test of their first foldable, testing how well the device works in general and gauging demand for that type of device. Metrics were probably good enough to justify a G4 model that addresses any issues that the previous model had.
A lot of us end users are still skeptical about "folding glass", and don't like the weird irregularities in the folded screens.
It wouldn't make sense to devote massive resources to a device that might flop.
The fact this all came on the tail end of a chip shortage doesn't help. Just look at the nonsense surrounding PC graphics cards. Feels like companies are using older supplies, and redesigning products around what they have available.
🤷🏻♂️
good point
Google is not to blame because we all knew what the pixel fold was made of and what's worse. We knew what the pixel 8 and 8 pro would have before Google started with the fold's pre orders. Hope they learn from this.
Well I've had mine since launch never get hot plus great battery plus fastest speed loading apps running Android 14 beta QR3. Google has made it much better and last longer than the Z Fold. I got mine no trade in at launch for 900.00 I play my real racing 3 for hours everyday. It can last up 2 days watching videos and emails plus calls but that's my experience.
You lie. Ain't no way battery lasts 2 days watching videos. Battery wouldn't last 2 days even if you weren't watching videos.
i been a pixel user since day one and usually goggle gets it right after the third try. pixel fold 2 will be better but it will stand out when the 3 or 4 comes out.
#TeamPixel
They listened but watch nobody buy it...
The Google Pixel fold set a real bad tone for the pixel fold series, if it wasn't so expensive 🫰 maybe it would be different but nah. You could barely just justify that much money for Samsung, much less pixel foldables.
Go back and look at the tone Samsungs 1st fold set. 1st generation anything tends to suck.
@@hawki5120yeah but Google should have learnt from them
If they get away from being wider .. then … there is not news that will make me buy the second gen …
My battery is not very good honestly and it does get hot I only have it cuz I paid a bunch of money for it but I'm definitely looking to trade it in
This put the P Fold on my purchase radar screen.
Team Pixel need to play it like team Apple and add qualcomm modems .. that would be big news. What's the aftermarket play? 199 for this first Gen Wi-Fi tablet?
Apologies.. I'm just salty I don't get to enjoy pixel products as much as others.
What's crazy is the pixel 8 and pro are respectfully $100 and $300 less than the Galaxy S24 plus and Ultra. Yeah the price for the S24 and Pixel 8 are the same price but google would have faired better if they wouldve priced the pixel fold $100-$300 cheaper than Samsung's Fold.
Battery was horrible and I returned it. Went back to my z fold 4 and now to oneplus open.
AI $20 a month and to trade that in $300 lol 😆
Will Google bring competitor for Airtag?
Holy 1800 usd. Too God dang high.
That's a robbery
I paid $1000 on Amazon lol
Unless they fix the heat and performance issues i wont be interested. I see no reason to spend $1500+ on an inferior device which is basically running an old exinos chipset. If google wants to compete it needs to punch above its class not below
@melissabenoistlovesbacon yes but the chip they put in this phone is weak and has poor thermal performance. If they had put a snapdragon in it, the issues wouldn't be there. DUH
It would be AWESOME if they came out with a Tensor G4 but imo I personally think looking at it from a business angle, Google might spec bump the G3 like snapdragon.
Like how a few years back we got the snapdragon at the beginning of the year for the "S" line of Samsung phones & then the slightly juiced chip for the Notes.
From a marketing & cost saving standpoint it gives us the chip we still want and gives them incentives & expectation to make the G4 even more capable!
Besides, I can already imagine the belly aching in the comments & snide remarks from the posh tech tubers complaining about if Google releases the G4 next, besides A. I. & Software (since they already leaked design) what is there to look forward to with the Pixel 9 & 9 Pro?
If they do give us the G4 anytime soon, I want the return of Soli by the Time the 9 & 9 Pro release! 😤💯
Please continue to never base your reviews on your relationship with the company. PLEASE NEVER DO THIS. IF YOU ARE DOING THIS WITH SAMSUNG, PLEASE STOP. Your brand is your credibility. Please do not base your reviews on whether companies send you stuff.
I know you like Pixels but I keep reading bad and mixed reviews about them. I use Google apps everyday so I was looking at them.
Same bullshit Samsung does with the over priced fold.
If true, they're going to get dragged in a big way for essentially stealing the OnePlus Open design. As someone that loves Pixels, they have sooo much to do to salvage their foldable
Won't get new updates because they will gatekeep for the new Pixel 9. It's a new trend now and nobody is discussing it.
💪💪💪💪💪💪
I like the form factor better than the Z fold honestly. The only problem was battery life and I thought the camera would be better.
First like 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I don't care about the chip the one they put in it was good enough I hate the pixel fold because of the shitty landscape design it's horrible and that is why it sucks not because of the damn chip they put in it
Said it once and I'll say it again, never buy a first-generation Google product.
1800 Samsung can offer better hardware and software.
I think your experience with the Pixel Fold is entirely dependent on location and carrier. I have excellent battery life with mine.
Thats why i originally returned mines for that super premium price i have to have the best the company have.
I guess I'm not as much into specs. Great battery, 512gb storage, forrm factor is great, IMO. Then again, being a former SD 2 user, i wanted something with a similar formfactor. Overall, Im happy with it. I may trade it in fot the Pixel 9 Fold/Fold 2, if they offer a really good deal. Otherwise, I will stick with the Fold, until something really catches my attention.
Yeah, just recently had the Google pixel fold since launch, trade it in for the s24 ultra, I just got to say that time with the Google pixel fold was quite the disappointment, the form factor was shockly great😅😅, however the experience and how long it took to get to Android 14 was very disappointing just as much as the G2 sensor chip going in before release! I really low-key think that this was just an experiment to see if we would bite and we did however they have to listen due to their buys and their returns on the phone! 😂😂 I think this time around they will nail it! Same with Samsung though. I have to give flowers to OnePlus because they definitely made them step up their game and we will see it this year! It's okay going back to slap phone I'm a fold guy so I really miss my fold waiting to see what Google and Samsung offer!
Sorry I understand you're very supportive of tensor g3 but it sucked on my pixel 8 pro. Bad modem, always losing connection on t mobile and heating up randomly for no reason. Also, you must have a high tier plan on t mobile to get $1000 off of fold because they don't offer that kind of deal for simple choice plan.
"the like five or six of you" lol. Fantastic information as always.
I consider my pixel fold a beta device, but I also feel that was what was sold. Nonetheless, looking forward to the next iteration.
I have 2 different pixel phones and am disappointed with their performance, slow and not stable.
Pixel Fold now $1300 for whoever is interested or whatever and what not.
The problem that the PF2 has TG3 is that two months later the P9 will be released and will have the TG4, so under that premise the PF will always be a year behind Google's high-end and it is not fair when You pay $1800 for a phone
You didn't listen to the video at all did you?
If the fold 2 comes out late like the fold...I expect the g5 in it
I just want the screen to be taller and the bezels in the inside to be way smaller like the fold 5. I just might get it.
Or at least make exception for 1st Gen fold to have 7 years of software and security updates
any news yet on what is coming in the feature drop for the pixel 7 pro?
In my opinion, the tensor chipsets still have a long way to go before I'd even consider them. In addition, I really don't know why I'd want to purchase a Google pixel fold when a device such as the OnePlus open is so readily available.
Used one next to my s23 ultra sry but they don't have a long way to go. Google has pushed it so far with there software and optimization on Said chip I actually liked the animations and way it moved through apps more. Sure slightly longer to open some things but when in them it moves so well. Its so much faster then I thought it would be and god the display looks so good. Samsung bushes brightness with colors so colors are bright yes but the pixel 8 pro has nice rich deep colors I was very surprised. It's also 489ppi compared to 500 ppi so can't even see the sharpness difference to the human eye. It's pretty incredible how good the pixel8 pro is and I won't lie I liked using it more then my s23ultra so luch so that when I upgrade I may just be going to pixel. You should test the new 8 pro out it will surprise tf out of you tbh.
@@reviewforthetube6485 again, I have no desire to purchase a Google pixel device. I am not crazy about tensor chipsets. I played around with my friend's phones that utilize them and I can tell the difference. Don't get me started on the bench scores. When it comes to performance, the tensor G3 cannot compare to the Snapdragon 8 generation 3.
Besides, I skipped Samsung and Google this year in favor of the OnePlus 12. I did the same thing last year in favor of the OnePlus 11. When it comes down to power, performance, features an overall value they can't touch 1 +.
i guess i have been super lucky because i bought my fold for $1300, my battery is great, it doesn't get hot, and i love the form factor of the phone. i came from a pixel 6 and 7 and liked both of those phones and also used a ms duo as an on the go tablet but the fold is just perfect in my opinion. i knew the fold 2 wasn't going to be far behind but i don't like the new form factor as much but the G4 tensor would be nice but i'm not spending that kind of money again without some major trade in.
