I switched from the Samsung Z Fold 2 to the OnePlus Open, and it was the worst decision of my life. For a $2400 phone with no wireless charging and just an OLED display? Even my four-year-old Fold 2 has an AMOLED screen and support wireless charging. Such a disappointment! I decided to sell it after three months.
I have had the Z fold 6 for 4 days now and it really does last, I usually finish the day on 35-40%, as a comparison I never managed to get a full day out of my Pixel Pro 7 even when brand new.
Not even all the way through. This is the first time ive watched one of your videos love the jokes and puns and how your delivering the info. Good shit.
I'm a Samsung fan, and I proudly owned Z fold 3, 4, and 5 the time it was released. I love foldables. Unfortunately, every time, my excitement grew a huge frustration due to its candy like folded design and poor battery life. Back then, there weren't many alternatives when it came down to foldables. But this time, I didn't make the same mistake again. I bought the mighty Vivo X fold 3 pro. Mate, i tell you it's a beast! When you hold X fold 3 pro as folded in your palm, it's a joy and feels like a proper phone with no sacrifice! Don't get me wrong, I use an S24 ultra as my primary phone and daily driver, which I love most. Unfortunately, Samsung foldables aren't growing much nowadays. Other brands are listening to their customers and went ahead of Samsung. If you're thinking of getting a foldable, Vivo X fold 3 pro could be your first choice!

Was holding out for this review but went with the z fold 6 and dont regret it despite the vivo advantages....it feels like a more saleable second hand unit which to me.was quite important
@@Lastskykeyjust traded in an s22 ultra for $800 credit for a z fold 6. I actually got money back because I only paid 700 originally for the s22 ultra.
I’ve always loved Samsung as it was my first phone I had an s4 which till this day I still miss because of how beautiful it was. Switched to Apple around 7 years ago and now finally I’m going to Samsung with the fold 6 and I don’t care about the other phones advantages fold6 is just visually pleasing which isn’t the only thing I went for.
The problem I have is that you review all these great handsets. Not many of us can afford to buy them outright. The UK networks don't seem interested in any brands other than Apple, Samsung, and Google. So we are just looking at phones which we can never have.

I use dex quiet a lot with the S21ultra and the tab s9 ultra also it's an amazing feature that has completely taken the desktop need away from me. There is an app for everything I might need and they work flawlessly every time
The main reason i would want a large second screen is for media consumption, but the internal screen is basically square... i don't really see the appeal of foldables, and most people i know that have them seem to mainly use them folded.
Oppo is actually a bit thinner & not have wireless charging. Oppo not a challenger, but next year they will be. Honor is but some say not as good software. It would be very interesting.

As anyone seen any durability test on the vivo x fold 3 pro. (how many folds can it do without breaking) what if the vivo fold 3 needs to be repaired. Who or what country would i need to send it back to. What about the vivo x fold 3 pro software.. All the vivo fold 3 pro notifications dont work. Samsung as got 6 years experience in making a foldable phone, even though they definately need to start making some major changes and giving customers exactly what they want, such as a bigger fron screen , bigger battery and better cameras etc
People are talking as if every single folding device so far from samsung hasnt had major durability issues with long term use in terms of the crease. Idgaf what they say, almost everyone thats used them for a year or two daily, reports noticeable damage along the crease. Not only that but samsing doesnt make it easy at all to get that repaired for free
Is there a dual view feature in the global version? This is when both screens (internal and external) are on when taking a photo. I need this function so that I can see the person in the photo and he/she can see himself/herself. The Chinese version of vivo x fold 3 pro does not have this function.
Writing this from a Vivo X Fold 3 Pro. Gambled for my wallets sale and went for the far cheaper Origin os version (~$1,350), and for the most part works fine. Telegram has some issues and Google tasks just flat out won't work. However Fitbit and my Fitbit smartwatch works just fine. And MY GOD it's power is amazing fo emulation!! Switch emulation is the best it's ever been on mobile, BOTW running at a smooth 30FPS on Yuzu ✨😁✨
But how do both these phone compare to the oneplus open which as of every review I've watch say it's the best foldable phone available thanks for all the great videos 👊
You should know the OnePlus Open has more narrow outer screen and no wireless charging, so won't be a challenger until next model early next year. It's probably still a better choice over Samsung.
Yeah, I'm gonna need a full length Vivo v Honor v Xiaomi foldable battle. Don't waste time comparing to the Fold 6, it's well behind all 3 in every aspect.
@kopkiwi08 Not really, actual usability is more important and the samsung is more durable and just built better. It has a few advantages the vivo it you like a bigger front screen (not everyone does) cams are a little better but really the samsung software pretty much picks up the slack and makes the pics fine. Samsung Spen is better also.
Chinese foldables are unreliable in all aspects... Terrible software, Missing features, No software updates or security updates, terrible build quality, terrible repair support, etc... But they look beautiful.
I have the vivo xfold3 pro, my wife the same in 'standard'. Amazing phones. We bought them back in may and did never regret. My focus is on the camera setup. It's amazing. Beats all I did with SLRs before
@@JDF22 I have the pro, my wife the standard. From spec sheet there should be a big gap in zoom, but I almost never do zoom, my focus is on portraits. My wife did really nice ones as well. We never compared 1:1 so it is hard to say. Both seem to be quite good.
Both phone have an excellent build quality but I care more about overall software and customer service experience. How long does Vivo support their fold and how quickly can I get a fold fixed from them is the real question.
Thumbprint on the screen YES!!!! I want it both on the side and on the screen. Tired of taking it out of the car mount to use the side print on the Samsung
The things that make me go away from these phones are the lack of reliable aftersales support, bloatware, future updates, and lack of apps compatibility specifically banking apps which I use daily.
Samsung has remained stagnant for many years, while its Chinese counterparts have demonstrated significant innovation. Currently, their focus on AI may not resonate with a large segment of consumers.
Just a reminder that Samsung spent a huge amount of R&D to develop the flexible OLED display only for the tech to be leaked to Chinese manufacturers. (AKA Boe) So yeah, sure they're the innovative ones...
Another great comparison/review! Looking forward for the Honor Magic V3 I'm currently rocking the Oppo Find N2, and while I love the screen size and software it is a hit on the chunky side.
I always wanted that but we can’t buy it in the US at cost and i think i won’t be able to use it with a us carrier, im not sure but if it was available i would have it

Chiese companies like Vivo and Xiaomi are leaving Sammy in the dust. Their battery tech is leaps ahead of Samsung. They are also competitive in camera and value as well.
Yeah, no foreign patent protection so they are great copiers. Don't get me wrong, sometimes what they do improves, but it's easy or easier to stand on the shoulders of giants who actually invest and have done since GSM/2g in research and development. 😊
@@Jedbullet29Cope. Huawei is beating Nokia on the telecoms side and Samsung/Apple on the smsrtphone segment. But Daddy Ttump had to come in and ruin it. Still, thanks to him now that it made China intensify their distancing from western tech. As shown by not being affected with Crowdstrike and Huaweo having a multiplatform non Android OS soon.
I wish this phone was widely available in the uk unfortunately its very hard to find and you'd have to buy it full price but its way better than the z fold by far
Yes. I have the Vivo Fold X 3 Pro, everything works flawlessly. Don't believe everything Samsung fanboys tell you. There is no problem with notifications, software or durability. The people who spread these rumors don't even have the Vivo X 3 Pro.
I heard that the best version is the Global rom version. I heard it's better than just the Pro. The software is polished and professional. I think the cameras have an extra processor chip as well but I may be wrong. So far I only see the Chinese version as the global unit is harder to find
These other foldables are good, but the only time they get attention is when you mention them alongside the Z. They have to be good enough to stand on their own. That goes deeper than the spec sheet.
It's because the samsung is a world wide launch and all the other brands are way more in asia launches and so the samsung is seens as the standard but it doesn't mean the others are worse or not good on there own
@@nathanvrvrt don't tell me. Tell them. Nobody is stopping them from doing a global launch. It seems they would rather piggy back off Samsung's popularity. That's why Samsung is the leader. If they want to lead, they have to act like leaders.
I'm using samsung's foldable since flip3, then fold4. Now i switched to vivo's. It's been great but bit lack in UI. Overall it's a great competitor from china
I love my z fold 6, I don't understand, does everything I wanted it to do, plus I love Samsungs ecosystem. All the little advantages the other phones aren't a big deal at all.
The only thing worth praising on the Z Fold 6 is Dex. In everything else, Vivo X Fold 3 Pro wipes the floor with the Z Fold 6 and I say that as a Samsung fan. Don't blindly praise TM Roh's stupid cost-cutting decisions. You're part of the problem.
Samsung needs to make the foldable with the same cover screen size as the s24u. Slim it down a bit and I'm sold. I have a zfold 3 and after that initial honey moon stage with a foldable I hate the cover candy bar screen.
How would warranty and replacements work if I were to get the global version being in the US? The phone being compatible with my carrier and the warranty are the two things stopping me from getting this phone. I currently have Verizon but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be able to put device protection on for this device
Most of these devices are not available in US. One of the reasons samsung has not felt the need of rushing in the states maybe by z fold 8 or 9 the outer display will be 6.5"
Ordered mine, what do I do, take it to my regular carrier to have my number switched over? I'm excited but confused about how to switch everything over..
Just swap your sim card from the old phone to the new one. Also might want to login to your service provider's website and input the IMEI of your new phone to make sure all calling/texting/data works fine.
ip48 isn't much superior than x8 because that just means it is protected against 1mm particles. and how tightly modern phones are made i don't think any would fail this at all
@@michaelmayers3622 Let me rephrase: if I want better battery, better cameras, better screens, better crease, more RAM, true fast charging and better hardware overall I'll go with Vivo. If I want a overpriced product with worse hardware I'll go with Samsung.
I heard the Chinese foldables have desktop output, which is same to Dex. Dex is only a more full desktop output than the others. Yes Google should have a desktop output soon too. They all will catch up to Dex , but so far Dex is best for now as it has most features. I am not Shure which other phone has it best but I heard another reviewer mention it.

@blaster915 thanks. I believe this is for Chinese version, correct? I heard VIVO global version support Android Auto but not sure about eSim support.
@@hussamam5414 yes, I didn't specify. This is for the Chinese version. The global version has android auto. Not sure about esim though
Chiese companies like Vivo and Xiaomi are leaving Sammy in the dust. Their battery tech is leaps ahead of Samsung. They are also competitive in camera and value as well.
Yeah, no foreign patent protection so they are great copiers. Don't get me wrong, sometimes what they do improves, but it's easy or easier to stand on the shoulders of giants who actually invest and have done since GSM/2g in research and development. 😊
Samsung is much better for the software.
@@Jedbullet29Cope. Huawei is beating Nokia on the telecoms side and Samsung/Apple on the smsrtphone segment.
But Daddy Ttump had to come in and ruin it. Still, thanks to him now that it made China intensify their distancing from western tech. As shown by not being affected with Crowdstrike and Huaweo having a multiplatform non Android OS soon.
Their longevity isn't as good as Samsung. Let's see in 3 years from now with quality and better drain issues.
@@fotoelbait isn't. It's now slightly better the hardware difference is massive
I wish this phone was widely available in the uk unfortunately its very hard to find and you'd have to buy it full price but its way better than the z fold by far
thanks for your presentation. As a daily driver, on the Vivo X Fold 3 pro, do you get real time notifications ? And badges on mail icons ?
Ys.. Definitely.. Using fold 3 pro since 1 month.. Great cameras, Insane battery life, excellent performance, Superfast charging
Yes. I have the Vivo Fold X 3 Pro, everything works flawlessly. Don't believe everything Samsung fanboys tell you. There is no problem with notifications, software or durability. The people who spread these rumors don't even have the Vivo X 3 Pro.
What's most important for me is that Android work profile works, so can you confirm
@@stevebutcher2033 ys.. It works perfectly
I heard that the best version is the Global rom version. I heard it's better than just the Pro. The software is polished and professional. I think the cameras have an extra processor chip as well but I may be wrong. So far I only see the Chinese version as the global unit is harder to find
Love my vivo x fold 3 pro...❤❤
Me too ❤❤
Techspurt, where can i buy one from ?????
These other foldables are good, but the only time they get attention is when you mention them alongside the Z.
They have to be good enough to stand on their own. That goes deeper than the spec sheet.
It's because the samsung is a world wide launch and all the other brands are way more in asia launches and so the samsung is seens as the standard but it doesn't mean the others are worse or not good on there own
@@nathanvrvrt don't tell me. Tell them. Nobody is stopping them from doing a global launch. It seems they would rather piggy back off Samsung's popularity. That's why Samsung is the leader. If they want to lead, they have to act like leaders.
I'm using samsung's foldable since flip3, then fold4. Now i switched to vivo's. It's been great but bit lack in UI. Overall it's a great competitor from china
That split feature you showed on the vivo is a hidden feature on fold 3. Research before you say it's not on a phone.
I love my z fold 6, I don't understand, does everything I wanted it to do, plus I love Samsungs ecosystem. All the little advantages the other phones aren't a big deal at all.
The Fold 6 is a great device, but at the end of the day it is an inferior device.
The only thing worth praising on the Z Fold 6 is Dex.
In everything else, Vivo X Fold 3 Pro wipes the floor with the Z Fold 6 and I say that as a Samsung fan.
Don't blindly praise TM Roh's stupid cost-cutting decisions. You're part of the problem.
💯 % agree... I like my ZF6 as well .. Vivo and all the companies are playing catch up .. software wise
@@cd2ogz1 And Samsung is playing catchup hardware wise, see I can nitpick too
YEAH
Stylus support for vivo?
I've been seeing videos on the flod 6 not folding flat when opened. Did you notice this in you're review?
Hey, I noticed when he opened both near the beginning of the video around the 1:47 mark, the Samsung looks like it doesn't fold fully open.
Mine is completely flat when open
Samsung needs to make the foldable with the same cover screen size as the s24u. Slim it down a bit and I'm sold. I have a zfold 3 and after that initial honey moon stage with a foldable I hate the cover candy bar screen.
Call quality?
I would 100% buy one of these if they were released here in the UK!
Can’t get hold of one over here, can anyone help?
Average dad tech store. It's where I bought my Global Vivo. Great service, highly recommend
Is there an issue with the Notifications so I heard ?
How would warranty and replacements work if I were to get the global version being in the US? The phone being compatible with my carrier and the warranty are the two things stopping me from getting this phone. I currently have Verizon but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be able to put device protection on for this device
Can you flip between the front and rear cameras whilst recording video?
How is Vivo x fold 3 pro vs Honor magic v3?Pls share your opinion..
Most of these devices are not available in US. One of the reasons samsung has not felt the need of rushing in the states maybe by z fold 8 or 9 the outer display will be 6.5"
Would love to be a Vivo fold here in the States, but it's a big pain in the ass to get there hardware here!
It's not.
I went on Wonda Mobile and ordered the Origin OS for less than 1500 with 3 day FedEx shipping from hong kong .
love the yinlin wallpaper
Hope u can review also the full specs of upcoming google pixel pro fold 9
How many years dose it get with updates
Don’t forget the honor v3
Great video, love your style... I bought my vivo from average dad's channel/tech store
Yeah he Is really good.
Where is the best place to get this vivo?
0:28 what game is that?
zenless zone zero
Ordered mine, what do I do, take it to my regular carrier to have my number switched over? I'm excited but confused about how to switch everything over..
Just swap your sim card from the old phone to the new one. Also might want to login to your service provider's website and input the IMEI of your new phone to make sure all calling/texting/data works fine.
ip48 isn't much superior than x8 because that just means it is protected against 1mm particles. and how tightly modern phones are made i don't think any would fail this at all
Does it support stylus pen? Which all foldables support stylus?
Amazing comparison! The Vivo completely destroys the Fold 6. What a beast! So far this is the best foldable of 2024.
Come back here in a year and let us know if your phone is still working
@@NBGUYVER lmao another Samsung bot. As if Samsung Folds were perfect and didn't have problems. What a joke.
@@Pheux samsung is the most refined if u want size go with vivo
@@michaelmayers3622 Let me rephrase: if I want better battery, better cameras, better screens, better crease, more RAM, true fast charging and better hardware overall I'll go with Vivo. If I want a overpriced product with worse hardware I'll go with Samsung.
@@michaelmayers3622Samsung is also the most complacent.
Stop riding TM Roh.
🤣🤣🤣
Does vivo have a desktop mode like dex?? That’s the only thing I really need to know before I make my purchase
no, only samsung has that. but there is a rumour Google will add one soon in a future version
I use Dex all the time. I managed to wean myself off a laptop because of it. One of the most under rated features on Samsung.
I heard the Chinese foldables have desktop output, which is same to Dex. Dex is only a more full desktop output than the others. Yes Google should have a desktop output soon too. They all will catch up to Dex , but so far Dex is best for now as it has most features. I am not Shure which other phone has it best but I heard another reviewer mention it.
Can i use them in the US??... i see the x fold and the honor magic. Just wondering
When you review the honor magic v3?
How do you get the vivo or one plus in the uk
