Google Pixel Fold vs. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4: Which Cameras Are Better?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2023
- The new Google Pixel Fold costs $1,800 and has five cameras just like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4. So naturally we had to see how the cameras on Google's first foldable stack up against those on Samsung's 11-month-old Z Fold. And it isn't as close a competition as you might expect.

As a z fold user who would love the outer display of the pixel, I will stick with my fold 4 but keep an eye out for when the Pixel Fold matures.
One plus is going to be the sweet spot. I love my fold 4. But love my pixel fold too and my 14 pro max
@@jaystechroomwhich one takes 1st place out of the two folds devices u have
@bigdrews4360 I have more fun with my pixel fold. That front screen man. Fold 4 is cool too I love less bezels for sure but Samsung has better features
@@jaystechroom Not having floating windows is a deal breaker for me. I use them every day.
As an almost 2 year owner of a zf3 my biggest complaint with this phone is the cameras. They are absolutely terrible and comparable to cameras about 5 years ago on flagship samsung phones. I'm really hoping for some better camera performance on the zf5 when it releases.
I didn’t buy a folding phone for taking ridiculous pictures. The pixel fold software sucks.
Pixel software is like buying a car with no options. I like the UI Samsung puts overstock Android... Makes the phone much more usable.
@TheMadmax0609 this is why I'm happy with my Fold 4.
Plus I hate how the icons at the top look on pixels. Yuck. I like the look of samsungs better
Great comparison video. I was curious about the cameras
Great job and fantastic information
Would be great to see a rematch when the Z Fold 5 comes out
I still prefer the z fold 4 overall which I`ve been using since release. The software is already perfect for a foldable, plus the s-pen. I just hope that next year`s fold will get a wider cover screen and somehow a 10x periscope lens
I liked this video! I was hoping for another of your zany reviews but I get that you can’t do that for every video. 😃
You don't remember whether Fold 4's food mode kicked in, but still continue to compare the photos instead of taking a new one? You also compare 20x zoom against 30x zoom and say 30x zoom would look worse (what a surprise), followed by praising the super res zoom as a combination of hardware, software and AI, which is exactly what Samsung has been doing since thry introduced the 100x space zoom. The bias is just too obvious.
Had the z fold 4 and gave the pixel fold a chance cuz i wanted something different, not just an incremental update... So far, day 4, i dont miss the fold 4.
Why though?
Video comparation is not just about the color, why did you just compare the color on video test? What a joke!! Z Fold 4 just way better on stabilization, smoothness, switch among the lens. And you just don’t mention it is just a silly.
When an $1800 phone cant play Fortnite for more than 15 minutes without crashing due to overheating but the Galaxy Z Fold 4 can run same game without getting warm it shows overall the power, thermals and battery efficiency are way behind the Z Fold series. The huge bezels and half-baked software give Android Honeycomb vibes.
great video!
Wow the difference in the cat photo was insane. That’s like going from Sony rx100 to rx1.
Pixels have had better cameras than Samsung overall. Saying this, that may be the only positive on the Pixel fold, Samsung's UI and how it handles multitasking is light years ahead. Google needs to catch up fast!
😂😂😂😂😂 what bro .. have you used a pixel ? Text better software is better fonts are better sharpness is better bloatware is non existent lol seems like your a fan and i have all 3 brands right with me .. pixel 7 galaxy 21 ultra and iphone 14 pro max in the past years … galaxy is pretty but thats about it and if you have a macbook its no reason to get one
Outside of a fold owner no one knows the difference between a fold 1-4. When I pulled out my fold 2 at church last Sunday, so many people were asking me about it. Samsung has done enough by making the fold a conversation piece for next five years. Foldables are Bugattis in the phone world....not everyone has one or could afford one.
Bugattis ? 😂 yeah ight
@@fabolousjada5070 Three years later in 2023, people are still saying to me "is that one of those folding phones? I never seen one before" and that was just like week while I waiting to see my Dr. They never ask "is that a fold 2, 3 or 4"? Folds are the Bugattis that pull up at the light that has everyone looking. Just keeping it real.
@@LordCommandor bro im from nyc manhattan the richest swaggiest city .. NOBODY rock folds .. iphone is number 1 Samsung non foldable then pixel phones … nobody care about foldables but tech enthusiast lets be real lol 😂 they curious doesnt mean they like it when they use it thats why it doesnt sell like that in the US … slab phones still king and people can careless about foldables were very social here in nyc
@@fabolousjada5070 I don't doubt you on that. The iphone rules without question. The only point I was making is these fold phone reviews are full of chit and no one cares about 1st gen or 2nd gen nonsense. But without question, wherever I go, someone who never saw it, is always asking me about the fold. I personally use mine mainly for work because it replaced my iPad as far as size. But yeah iphones do dominate. No argument on that.
I love my Z3 but always wished the cover screen was a little bigger. Samsung got everything right except for that.
I own Z fold 4, i think Z Fold is the best form factor, ease of use with one hand when folded. Also looks better with that tall form, nokia communicator series vibe.
Google fold looks like 2 phone slap into 1, look ugly in my opinioon.
where you got biased When you went to the 30 time zoom for z-fold and 20 time zoom for Pixel automatically the 30's going to look more distorted why wouldn't you do 20 for both you're probably being paid to promote Pixel🤔💩😢💯‼️
I like samsung's z fold 4 5g.
Pixel cameras are untouchable for now lol my girl hates droid but loves pixel photos
Fold4 rockz...🎉🎉🎉
Fold4 is incredible except for low light. It's my worst nightmare and will snapping a photo in low light takes like 5 seconds.
I am already using samsung z fold 4. now is it ok for me? Or Pixel fold is better than samsung z fold 4. I want your advice. Thanks
$1899 for the 512 gb which is the minimum storage I would agree to purchase.
Tempting to buy one.
Ill wait for google pixel fold 2.
Or get the discounted fold1 when 2 comes out. 😅
zero people thought it would be a close competition!! poor intro
The answer is obvious. You can get a ZFold 4 for around $1000 now. It is $1800 for the Pixel Fold for what is 99% similarity in specs by comparison. Is the aspect ratio worth it?
Both need to step up the cameras on these foldables. For the prive we are paying everything on these needs to be rop tier not second rate
what the T-shirt say ? Godzilla - Blue Oyster Cult
Most of these reviewers use favorable language when regarding the pixel fold, which was mostly finished for production in 2020. They delayed it, obviously. Google is the crown jewel in Silicon Valley so I understand using caution when criticizing theirs products. However the Fold 4 is superior in ways, instead of highlighting innovation such as a competitve under display camera, you simply point out the 4mp vs 8mp. Another example is all the reviewers leave the fold 4 in portrait (unfolded) when sidebyside with the Pixel fold giving the impression its better for media consuption. When in reality the samsung has a truly uninterrupted, SMALLER BEZEL display. It's seems disingenuous is all I'm saying.
Its an interesting concept, my co-worker has the Z Fold 3 and I asked him how he's liking it. He said he likely gonna switch back to a candy bar Samsung Galaxy in the future because he is rarely using the inside display.
I personally use the fold out very often. It makes the device worth it. But if you never open it them sure its wasted.
Smart guy. Those foldables are dumb and insanely overpriced.
Yep traded in my Z Fold 3 for an S22+ and eventually just a plain S23U. People will convince themselves that they will use the inner display but once you open your phone (which is a pain in the butt) you literally need to sit by a charger because you can kiss your battery good bye.
Say what you want. Battery has been fine. I like it a lot. Use it everyday opened up. Browsing and playing games is a game changer.
Hate it if you will, but the experience is great if you use it.
I don't know how opening it is a pain. It takes less than a second. I've had mine for almost 2 years, with no issues.
@@nickwilliams8603agreed. The Z Fold 4 battery on my phone is great!!! I'm able to get 7 hours of screen on time without charging it
After samsungs latest update that made my phone unable to connect to wifi, im pretty sure im ending my 10 yr relationship with samsung for google
Has anyone else noticed how blurry faces are in the main cameras from Pixel phones? It looks horrible. Everything else is great about the pixel camera.
I've used 5 different folding phones, I think Foldables are the next form factor given the use cases that folding allows. We need some advances in materials science and battery tech to help increase adoption of this form factor. For me the Pixel Fold's form factor/hardware and US software wins out over the current Samsung Fold package.
I also prefer the Pixel color science
Cheers
I've dropped two of the Samsung Fold models, the Samsung Flip 3, the Surface Duo and the Pixel Fold. None broke, so what exactly are you talking about?
Which foldable have you owned and dropped?
I just tried some of the same pictures with my Z Fold 4 and I can NEVER get such bad results as you are showing in this video. Either you are on very old software or your Z Fold is not working properly. The photo of the cat is where I turned of the video as I literally never had such a bad picture with the Z Fold.
If you ever hold a Huawei Mate X3 or the brand new Magic V2 these foldables from Samsung and Google become a joke. Both Huawei and Honor are generations ahead in the foldable market. Camera, display, weight, thickness everything basically
Jokes on you these chinese foldables are not globaly available and not well optimized by google samsung and google foldables are very well optimized and available all over the world
@@simaknaveedakther8755 they are globally available. Not in the US but in Europe for sure
Both look good. 😂Cameras are a toss up
Really bizarre way of starting the review, spending so much time talking about the cameras.
These reviewers are obsessed with cameras. People aren't buying foldable phones for the best camera. Surely the review should be more focused on the 2 screen, and durability etc.
Very odd!
Who cares? No one buys those for the cameras
$1800 for malware ridden, spyware infested, espionage camera/ microphone that sits in your pocket and listens to every cuss you mudder???
Where do I sign up?
😂 so far this is a joke. Patrick Holland is now a professional phone photographer. Why are people acting like software doesn't help with the outcome of taking a picture. Let me see how this nonsense ends. The beginning is 😂😂😂😂. Weird Patrick.
Every time a new phone comes out, these content creators trash the old phone. This is getting ridiculous. Tell us that you're a paid shill without telling us!
The pixel devices have had some of the best cameras on the market. This is accurate. I used to have a pixel. I currently have a zfold. I highly prefer my pixel camera.
@nickwilliams8603 you do not have a zfold stop lying 😂😂😂
While I would usually agree, the Pixel series has always been known to have excellent cameras (usually always regarded as one of the, if not THE, best cameras in the industry). Outside of Samsung’s Ultra series, their cameras in their other phones have always been considered good, but not the best. Their recently released mid-tier phones (A54) apparently has comparable cameras to their S23 and S23 Plus... which means it’s probably comparable to the Fold 4’s. So yeah, I could see why the Pixel would win this camera war. Rumor has it that the Fold 5 will use the same cameras... wish they would at least upgrade to the S22 Ultra’s 108 MP camera (if not the Ultra’s 200 MP lenses)... oh well. Maybe next year...
Bruh what do you expect? How will a manufacturer convince you to buy a new phone if it's cameras aren't better 🤦♂️. Stop talking like a 6 year old
Rumour is the ZFold 5 will have a similar camera to this ones lol
2k for a phone that screen breaks when dropped. only 1 class of people can afford this.
Not really with my trade in and discounts I can't get the z fold 4 and 5 for like 700.
Carriers offers financing option buddy.
Any phone can break when dropped regardless of price. Glass is glass, and glass breaks.
@@subjectbigy enjoy that night.are when they refuse you lol read the horror stories
@@phero6933 the inner screen is plastic and breaks so easily I witnessed 4 flips breaks when dropped during bag checks in a 2 month span.
How much money did Google pay you off for this review. Lol jk good video though.
Samsung has to step up if they still want to be on top of the Mobile phone market.
Outside of a fold owner no one knows the difference between a fold 1-4. When I pulled out my fold 2 at church last Sunday, so many people were asking me about it. Samsung has done enough by making the fold a conversation piece for next five years. Foldables are Bugattis in the phone world....not everyone has one or could afford one.
@@LordCommandor Are u using your phone in the church
@@jannissen4382 Always to use my Bible app....hello.
Lol google gave him a few phones for this biased review.
Who care about camera
Biased review. Asusual they are trying to show that US company is great than korean
Simple
Mr. Mobile used to be one of the unbiased ones. But with Puxel Fold's review he lost all credibility he had. As you said, it seems the US UA-camrs are just hyping this device despite too many issues.
As much as I love Google's cameras, their build quality is horrible. Quality control needs major improvement.
