The ever-reliable and dependable iPhone 16 Pro Max 🙂 Loved the comparison by the way. I was optimistic about Pixel 9 Pro Fold and wanted to have it as a secondary android device. Google let me down.
I loved your fair comparison. It was interesting to see that the Z Fold cameras came out on top here. Everyone seems to be giving the Z Fold a hard time about its camera hardware wishing for Ultra cameras instead of reviewing them for what they are instead of what they want them to be. Also, while the cover display isn't a traditional size wouldn't you say that helps aid the good aspect ratio of the inner display? If the cover was wider, you'd have similar letterboxing issues the Pixel Fold and OnePlus Open have. I feel like that and the fact that the cover display is very one-hand friendly should be something positive to add to the discussion in regard to the cover display.
That's incredible because for me I had to sell my fold 4 because I was just so frustrated at how useless and unusable the cover screen is. It's too small to type on or even read anything on. So I could only use my phone with the screen open. And then the fold 5 was just as useless and I had high hopes for the fold 6 but it's clearly just as useless LOL. You must have tiny hands :-)
1mm ain't shit I made a mistake going for the z fold 6 I only open it while I'm at home and consuming content but with the pixel fold your getting a better cover display and I will get rid of my z fold 6 for the 9 pro fold
I was first gonna buy a pixel 9 pro fold since I had a z fold 2 back in the day. And i thought that the front screen was way to narrow for daily use, sold the phone again shortly after I bought it. But a week ago I bought z fold 6 and the front screen is absolutely fine, sure i wish it was a tiny bit wider but it's nothing that's bothering me to much and it's fine to write on etc. I like the symmetry of the z fold 6 compared to the pixel 9 pro fold.
Yeah same here I think the z fold 6 “new” front screen could be little bit wider but I took a look at it at Best Buy and it does not bother me at all it feels useful enough.
Same. My biggest issue has been finding the perfect case for the Fold 6. Went with the Otterbox Defender XL. Great case thats a little bulky. Does slightly obstruct the already thin front case. Overall, love the Z Fold 6.
Man the pixel 9 pro fold is gorgeous, would easily sway me from the fold 6 if only google stuck with Qualcomm, their tensor chips are junk, I’m not spending $2000 on phone with performance from 4 years ago.
If you don't play games, I can assure you those benchmark numbers matter little in the real world. Even the Pixel 8 Pro is pretty fluid in daily usage.
I bought both: Fold 6 Navy Blue 1Tb , pre-ordered last month and recieved on launch day. It's my current device. My Pixel 9 Fold Pro is on pre-order, for the Obsidian with 512GB model. It's supposed to ship next week. I paid all in full / cash for all with extra warranty and accessories (case and screen protectors). Can't wait for my Pixel Fold 9 to arrive. It's supposed to have wifi 7 (Fold 6 is only Wifi6E) which I have at home: I'm using 2 ASUS GT-BE98 Pro in mesh with 10gbe wired backhaul. My home server is a Synology 8 drive unit with 8x 22TB (2 fault tolerance) and 10gbe connection. Internet connection is 3Gb/sec up and down (fastest available in my area). These devices are going to be beastly which is commensurate with my home PC and network setup.
Well good luck. I'm returning my porcelain pixel 9 pro fold because just like the first one I purchased in the obsidian black. This one also has developed lumps down the crease. I don't know how different they are, so the other people that have reported the same issue on Reddit. At least when I flip my phone at an angle when the screen is turned off you can actually see the lumps and when the phone is fully open something underneath is pushing on the screen. So I don't know how much the screen can take from opening and closing the device for the first 6 months. I've had my zfold 6 launch and I haven't had that issue so I will be returning my pixel 9 profile and using the zfold 6. I put away in my mother's drawer and starred daily driving my Galaxy watch ultra with my phone. JOSE lumps are very concerning for me and I don't know if the screen will end up giving in after the lumps get bigger or if they stay the same. So like I said I will be returning mine and going back to my Galaxy z fold 6. I know Google's hardware is amazing but still those lumps concern me and I've been a long time and all their folds have never failed me
Definitely the Pixel, i had the fold 6 and i didn't really like it but the Pixel is a whole different matter. I love the look, feel in hand, larger screen and the cameras. Im not a gamer and the photos look great to me. I don't understand all this comparing cameras on phones as basically all phones have decent pics these days 😊
Great review/comparison as always! Can you please Add the newest oneplus open (crimson) to “pt 2” of this comparison please?! Would love to see an in depth comparison of all 3 in terms of Hinge Quality, performance, battery life, camera, and multi-tasking. Am a power-user and I’ve been wanting to buy a foldable for some time now because of the multi-tasking features but I’m super skeptical of the previously mentioned categories because it just feels wiser to use something like the s24 Ultra without having to compromise on build quality (hinges), camera reliability, software bs, battery life or performance… Would be great to multitask more but that means nothing if am paying more $ for a compromise in any one of those areas.
i am a samsung technician guys the z fold6 has a problem and that defect is that the folding mechanism does not open 180 degrees after a few days or a week of use. If your Samsung device has this defective, a new screen replacement can be requested under warranty, but there is a condition that there is no physical damage to the outer surface of the phone.
I totally agree. It looks weird and the thick bezel around the cover screen is just a waste of space and it makes look cheap and outdated compared to z fold 6.
I’d pick the pixel. Camera and benchmarks don’t matter to me. Software and userbility matters more. I have the zfold 4 and wish for a wider front display and google software.
@@armandoarroyo Yes but it has more to do with the customization and options. Like the video showed, you can open more than 2 windows at a time. You also have the edge panel for quick drag and drop, quick app pairs and additional customizations through Good Lock
@@jboogie45213 isnt that what the play store is for, you can add an edge panel if you like, you can change your launcher if you so choose, developer options allows you to have floating screens on top of your split screens, you already have app pair natively now so what's the difference...? Now what you don't have on Samsung is call screening as welll as the smart functions that google gives you in that same call functions with holding as well as the smart functions that come with any pixel devices.
Great comparison. I have been using and loving my Samsung Fold 4 for 2 years now. It still works like new, has most of the AI features, and 2 more years of major updates. But, that front screen is all but useless. I o ly use it for calls, the rest is done unfolded. Im up for an upgrade and contract rebewal in Oct., so i'm torn between Samsungs superior build quality (and extra features with apps like good lock), but still too narrow front screen. I like the squared off look of Fold 6, but I may give 9 pro fold a try simply to try stock android and a bigger front display. Its 70/30 Samsung/Pixel ATM. We'll see what i land on next month.
I was about to get the pixel 9 pro fold but the z fold 6 added a little extra to reduce heat and after watching this video i am more convinced to switch from my z fold 3 to z fold 6
Bro I'm watching this video on my 3 after seeing an ad for the Pixel, didn't know Google had a Fold until minutes ago. Very happy with my expensive 3 but have been thinking about upgrading. Glad it's not mandatory, feels good to still be happy with my 3 while there are 3 newer generations, apple users can't relate lol
I guess I’m the odd one out, but I actually like the color reproduction of the Pixel camera? It seems to match your skin tone of the living room lighting…
🤣🤣🤣 have you seen the Huawei Mate XT ultimate and other folding phones out there samsung is king in the software department but in hardware they lack so much they need to update there hardware really fast or they will be far behind there software is not enough
Boggles my mind how everyone prefers the inside screen when playing first person shooters where you totally crop off the sides and are at a disadvantage. The front screen on the zfold gives you the best viewing angle as you get more on the screen. Even compared to the front cover of the pro 9 fold super extreme xl.
Aspect ratio and field of view don't always go hand-in-hand. Many games, especially first-person shooters, have everyone play at the same FOV or thinner, but not wider, to give everyone an equal playing field.
Samsung should have long ago simply made an external screen with at least the same width as an iPhone X / 11 Pro, put better photo sensors, and put a battery 🔋 of at least 4700-5000mAh in its Folds, they refused to listen to their customers, and their customers punished them, the sales figures of Fold 6 are disastrous unlike the rest of the industry in the segment 🤷🏽♂️ On the other hand, when some people say that the outer screen of the Fold 6 is still too narrow (it is 3mm wider than that of the iPhones Mini), when the whole industry has applauded the iPhone Minis, I find it quite hypocritical. But, frankly, I don't see the Pixel 9 Pro Fold as a really dangerous competitor, a threat to the Galaxy Fold 6. Also, if it's just a large external display you're looking for on a Fold, honestly, the OnePlus Open is a better Fold than the Pixel 9 Pro XL in addition to being much cheaper. Ps: for me, a Fold that doesn't handle a pen 🖊 is really of no interest. 🙏🏽
I have a Z Fold 6 and OnePlus Open, i find myself using the Open more, better form factor, if the Pixel Fold 9 had a Snapdragon chip, it would be a no brainer
z fold may have smaller cover screen but it still looks much better than that ugly pixel cover tbh. the squared out uniform boxy minial design just looks way nicer on the fold.
I upgraded my Z Fold 3 for a Pixel 9 Pro Fold. I think Pixel has better animations and haptics. I'm not sure if I'll keep it though. I may hold out with my Z Fold 3 until battery/charging and cameras get substantially better on folds.
Pixel fold all day. I am a pixel die hard since the og so there's that but mainly for the outer display. It's a crazy upgrade from the previous. Samsung comes with reliability since they've had more experience, however.
I have an S24U, and I really want to get a fold, but I can't pull the trigger yet for samsung. I'm hoping that their fold seven, will make some significant changes instead of all these little incremental moves. I'm just a fan of the u. I and the s pen. If down the road, they dropped the S Pen, I could unhappily live with that, but I really like the u I.
I don't know why you would want 4 apps open at the same time 2 is more then enough. I get my fold tomorrow 😊 I know samsung wins in most areas but the fact is samsung don't do enough with their new phones to warrant even upgrading anything. I'm so angry with samsung they lost a customer. I'm with the underdog.
Dido on that ! I had a Samsung phone since the first Note and every Fold from 2 on..... Once I saw that the Fold 6 would be yet another skinny front screen that is useless other than reading texts etc..., I bought the OnePlus Open and just having a bigger front screen has been great let alone the barely noticeable crease etc.... Great point once again !
I upgraded from my z fold 5 on subscription to pixel 9 pro fold instead of z fold 6 because the price is better also I love the better displays and bigger screen also love the software of stock android , I might go back to samsung z fold 7 next year if they bring a better and bigger display and better cameras also I want the price to be the same or less like the pixel 9 pro fold 😅
After using both, easily fold 6 is the pick up. You just cant go hold the 9 pro fold heaviness. The 8 inch inside lacks customization, app issues, and bad to read. 9 pro fold is a two handed phone #googlepixel9foldpro #galaxyfold6
i wish you had kept the comparison pictures up for longer in the video. You switched to the next set of pictures too fast to observe them let alone compare them. it is not as pleasant to have to pause the video every half second to view them. just some viewer feedback (pun intended)
I'm switching my Z fold 5 to Google fold, because Samsung system update or some security update made my phone stuck at phone starting and not able to fix it in safe mode or recovery mode. Keep pop out the serious software detected to check my update. I have to factory reset my phone and lose everything i have in my Z Fold 5.
But it's not a fair comparison. The Z fold 6 has had multiple camera updates. The pixel 9 Pro fold. Once it gets the camera updates through software it's going to be 10 times better
You could argue that pixel have had loads of time since the zf6 came out to tune its cameras ready for the all important reviewers. However I do agree, it's happened to Samsung in the past where post launch there would be key software updates that could improve some aspects like cameras.
Bro, people literally make this argument every year. We say it every year with the Galaxy series. We say it IPhone. We say it Google. And when those camera updates do roll out, they don't win any awards
Samsung invented the foldable phone. It's the best quality hardware with store support. Who wants a superseded chipset for the same price that will lag in 8 months ? No thanks
That left side bezel/hinge area does look.odd now that the z fold 6 is perfectly symmetrical in that regard. The bigger outer screen on the pixel is way better though so its a give and take situation lol
I probably would have preferred the google but man samsung had a deal these last 2 days , 512gb fold 6 for 1142.99 i couldn't justify paying 600 more for the google with a deal that good
One plus beats Samsung in hardware and design. Only things missing are Dex style desktop and wireless charging. Oneplus take it in the U.S. and the price point is less. Google and Samsung not the only in the U.S.
It is great that it exists. However, Google's products often have performance issues and their apps have been unreliable recently. Android Auto and sending directions from my phone are not user-friendly. UA-cam frequently freezes or malfunctions on my Fold6, and I encounter other problems with Google Apps. Ironically, these are the only apps that cause issues on my Fold6. I had a similar experience with my S24+ before switching to the Z Fold6. Given these concerns, it is difficult for me to trust Google's hardware, especially considering its weaker processor, history of bugs, and software that appears to offer less functionality compared to Samsung. If the price difference is within $100, it makes more sense to choose Samsung unless you prefer supporting the underdog or have had a negative experience with Samsung and wish to avoid their products.
The Fold6 cover display is perfect for a one-handed grip and wide enough to type, and especially swipe type. The 9 Pro Fold got it wrong by being too wide for one-handed use. Good review otherwise.
always beeen a samung fan............ always had the NOTE series since NOTE 3...........now looking for FOLD CELL.........heck no never iphone................use to have one........u have to pay for everything and if u lock ur iphone and forgot ur pin then u might as welll feeling to GRT WHITE SHARKS.............LOL........................good comparison........wicked...................
Omg what is with that huge black bar whilst gaming... hopefully that'll get sorted when games are optimised soonish? I notice it happens with some other apps too where basically the status bar is really deep and wastes space/ looks weird
Im a samsung fan but I dont like the fold at all... the Pixel design is better... now I wouldnt buy a foldable phone for 2 reasons: The price is too high and foldables seems very fragile.. I have some friends that had the Galaxy fold and just got damaged on the screen
Ngl i actually use my fold 4 and that multi tasking which i actually use 3 apps at a time... really a bummer the pixel 9 pro fold can't do more than and they have more real estate to play with makes no sense
Pixel 9 Pro Fold vs Galaxy Z Fold 6: Which would you pick?
@BooredAtWork Neither, I'm going Honor Magic V3 baby! 😉
Haha. Me too. Was just waiting for these reviews before I made a final decision. Magic V3 Global all the way!

Pixel fold all day. I am a pixel die hard since the og so there's that but mainly for the outer display. It's a crazy upgrade from the previous. Samsung comes with reliability since they've had more experience, however.
I returned my Z Fold 6 for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and have zero regrets. And the camera produces better results.
That zfold is a str8 beast🔥
I have an S24U, and I really want to get a fold, but I can't pull the trigger yet for samsung. I'm hoping that their fold seven, will make some significant changes instead of all these little incremental moves. I'm just a fan of the u. I and the s pen. If down the road, they dropped the S Pen, I could unhappily live with that, but I really like the u I.
I'm happy that in the UK they're launching the Honor Magic V3 officially. The V3 for me beats these two in so so many ways.
yeah
I don't know why you would want 4 apps open at the same time 2 is more then enough. I get my fold tomorrow 😊 I know samsung wins in most areas but the fact is samsung don't do enough with their new phones to warrant even upgrading anything. I'm so angry with samsung they lost a customer. I'm with the underdog.
Dido on that ! I had a Samsung phone since the first Note and every Fold from 2 on.....
Once I saw that the Fold 6 would be yet another skinny front screen that is useless other than reading texts etc..., I bought the OnePlus Open and just having a bigger front screen has been great let alone the barely noticeable crease etc....
Great point once again !
Sounds good until you a repair/replacement for your OnePlus.
I think both cover displays is almost same size,but fold6 can one hand use ❤
Still better to go with a OnePlus open?
I upgraded from my z fold 5 on subscription to pixel 9 pro fold instead of z fold 6 because the price is better also I love the better displays and bigger screen also love the software of stock android , I might go back to samsung z fold 7 next year if they bring a better and bigger display and better cameras also I want the price to be the same or less like the pixel 9 pro fold 😅
we the samsung z fold to be WIDER not slimmer
After using both, easily fold 6 is the pick up. You just cant go hold the 9 pro fold heaviness. The 8 inch inside lacks customization, app issues, and bad to read. 9 pro fold is a two handed phone #googlepixel9foldpro #galaxyfold6
i wish you had kept the comparison pictures up for longer in the video. You switched to the next set of pictures too fast to observe them let alone compare them. it is not as pleasant to have to pause the video every half second to view them. just some viewer feedback (pun intended)
Thanks for the feedback. Will keep it a bit longer next time
@@BooredAtWork How did you obtain the name Thunder E? If you don't mind me asking, what is your true name?
I'm switching my Z fold 5 to Google fold, because Samsung system update or some security update made my phone stuck at phone starting and not able to fix it in safe mode or recovery mode. Keep pop out the serious software detected to check my update. I have to factory reset my phone and lose everything i have in my Z Fold 5.
I own an iPhone but need a business phone desperately was was between the fold 6 or pixel fold pro
But it's not a fair comparison. The Z fold 6 has had multiple camera updates. The pixel 9 Pro fold. Once it gets the camera updates through software it's going to be 10 times better
I doubt that.
No, that's not how it works at all. Updates fix bugs, they don't dramatically change the photos.
But you can only review a product based on what it is today, not what it could potentially be in the future.
You could argue that pixel have had loads of time since the zf6 came out to tune its cameras ready for the all important reviewers. However I do agree, it's happened to Samsung in the past where post launch there would be key software updates that could improve some aspects like cameras.
Bro, people literally make this argument every year. We say it every year with the Galaxy series. We say it IPhone. We say it Google. And when those camera updates do roll out, they don't win any awards
Samsung invented the foldable phone. It's the best quality hardware with store support. Who wants a superseded chipset for the same price that will lag in 8 months ? No thanks
i would go for the P9PF2 due to the software experience. i just perfer the more "pure" software on Pixels
That left side bezel/hinge area does look.odd now that the z fold 6 is perfectly symmetrical in that regard. The bigger outer screen on the pixel is way better though so its a give and take situation lol
What Samsung did in comparing the cameras with the Pixel is insulting to Google
Ive got the 9 its amazing the case options really suck though
When refined that google fold will be awesome but the Galaxy fold z,6 is more premium and polsihed imo
I want to see samsung z fold special edition😅
I probably would have preferred the google but man samsung had a deal these last 2 days , 512gb fold 6 for 1142.99 i couldn't justify paying 600 more for the google with a deal that good
I really like Pixel 9 Pro Fold, but Z Fold 6 had better features 😮💨
I’m stuck
One plus beats Samsung in hardware and design. Only things missing are Dex style desktop and wireless charging. Oneplus take it in the U.S. and the price point is less. Google and Samsung not the only in the U.S.
If you are gamer the ZFold is the choice. SD 8 Gen 3 is better than Google Tensor 4.
It is great that it exists. However, Google's products often have performance issues and their apps have been unreliable recently. Android Auto and sending directions from my phone are not user-friendly. UA-cam frequently freezes or malfunctions on my Fold6, and I encounter other problems with Google Apps. Ironically, these are the only apps that cause issues on my Fold6. I had a similar experience with my S24+ before switching to the Z Fold6. Given these concerns, it is difficult for me to trust Google's hardware, especially considering its weaker processor, history of bugs, and software that appears to offer less functionality compared to Samsung. If the price difference is within $100, it makes more sense to choose Samsung unless you prefer supporting the underdog or have had a negative experience with Samsung and wish to avoid their products.
The Fold6 cover display is perfect for a one-handed grip and wide enough to type, and especially swipe type. The 9 Pro Fold got it wrong by being too wide for one-handed use. Good review otherwise.
Pixel pro fold , Finally, a real phone tablet and no remote control.
For $1800 on both phones, both should have real pro camera's
Where get that wall paper
always beeen a samung fan............ always had the NOTE series since NOTE 3...........now looking for FOLD CELL.........heck no never iphone................use to have one........u have to pay for everything and if u lock ur iphone and forgot ur pin then u might as welll feeling to GRT WHITE SHARKS.............LOL........................good comparison........wicked...................
From a software perspective Samsung is much superior
Good review from India
I love my Pixel Fold plus I like the new Pixel 9 Fold
i was just reading in the news how the pixel fold did fold the bent test easy
I feel like opinions vary when it comes to this stuff. Because I've seen a review that shows the opposite.
I prefer the z fold 6 it’s more light ,and the processor is more powerful in z6 fold the camera also look better
I NEED the link to this background lol
W @3:09 for Master Chief
One plus open next please
Lets gooooooo!!!
Fold 6 for me
Can you link that Miles Morales wallpaper 🔥🔥
Fold 6 for the colors
Omg what is with that huge black bar whilst gaming... hopefully that'll get sorted when games are optimised soonish? I notice it happens with some other apps too where basically the status bar is really deep and wastes space/ looks weird
"3.23 galaxy fold wins in every aspect" while showing tensor is faster in single core lol
Exactly Galaxy 🎉
I want that gojo wallpaper plz :D
Im a samsung fan but I dont like the fold at all... the Pixel design is better... now I wouldnt buy a foldable phone for 2 reasons: The price is too high and foldables seems very fragile.. I have some friends that had the Galaxy fold and just got damaged on the screen
I need that Spider-Verse Wallpaper link!!!? PLS?!
Google fixel design is more like fit and stable
Ngl i actually use my fold 4 and that multi tasking which i actually use 3 apps at a time... really a bummer the pixel 9 pro fold can't do more than and they have more real estate to play with makes no sense
Maybe future software update you can
Im waiting for the fold 6 special edition it will finally be ultra
It's only for China and Korea so it's most likely biased
Unfortunately Samsung over promises and under delivers with cameras
@mrkring1526 my s23 ultra is awesome even my s10 plus was classic w note 9
@@mrkring1526 I have the other androids too like red magic
