@@faithfamilyandfuntech5062You would need to wait until December to not factory reset your device moving to stable. If you don't mind a factory reset, just make sure you backup all of your things to the cloud.
Watched the most viewed video on Android 15 and barely got anything out of it.. then watched yours and finally everything makes sense... thank you for your clear way of explaining things
Ever since the update there has been an Instagram glitch / Bug I can't skip through someone's story by tapping the right side of the screen it just freezes.... I'm using the pixel 7 pro
Samsung Pay is very popular, and I use it on my Galaxy 6 watch. I use it in the US and when I travel internationally. Just my thoughts. Great video as usual.
At this point Microsoft is not even trying to make a good phone/tablet/foldable device. All they want to get is a marketplace and sell more devices without much dedication
I have a question have you used discord on the P9PF it used to stay in call and not hang up when switching between the two modes but now after an update about a week ago it now ends my call when i switch from folded to unfolded and cant get it to work lile it use to would love your feedback on this matter if you have used discord
Of alllll the features mentioned, at 6:15 the default wallet, adaptive vibration, & "swipe back background preview", are the only 3 new things that I see, when coming from the OnePlus Open, and I assume even the zFold6. So although it's nice that the Google is trying to catch up, the problem is that they STILL they have done NOTHING for the multitasking, or other "Fold specific" feature. So we still have limited use of their bigger screen. Truthfully The maker of Android has not paid attention to the foldable UI.
I genuinely don't think they think that stuff matters. They have data that says only about half of Pixel Fold users are even split-screening with two apps. My feeling is that they think this is a vocal minority situation.
@@scaryifliteral It could be a vocal minority but Google should be paying attention to Samsung and OnePlus. Adding value at nearly $2000 should be a priority.
Do you mean the one where it would ask you to unlock first? I kinda of solved this on my Magic V3 by using "Extend Unlock" and setting my watch to keep the phone unlocked but it's not a prefect solution.
I just checked and system update was available, OTA for me for my pixel 9 Pro fold. Hopefully you did not have any issues after the update? I am going ahead with installing Android 15 🤞
I was on the beta channel but opted out and have been waiting for 15 to come out. Yesterday I checked the settings and accidentally activated the install with wipe for 14. I paused it but now I think I screwed myself because it seems like my only option is to resume. Do you have any suggestions?
@@scaryifliteral I accidentally started the install of the device wipe with Android 14. I can't seem to get past this step. My only option is to resume.
Installing as I watch. Pixel 8 Pro Ontario Canada. Hey I like your pixel fold wallpaper, where do you get that? But don't go out and make a wallpaper app now lol. 😂😂😂😂
You have a long wait to get off now. I always found beta buggy with Android Auto. Stable is way to go. Unfortunately doing a Google backup for data & settings, is only from beta to beta, or stable to stable. So cannot transfer a beta to a stable OS, until you reach another "stable" which I believe is quarterly, and probably just passed, so another long wait. Hmmmmm.... A possible solution to this, is to do a Google backup transfer to another android device(!), then revert your Pixel to stableOS, and then do another device transfer, back to your Pixel! Ha! !
@macrochipped How comes? I ask as someone who is about to buy my first foldable phone and thinking between Samsung and pixel 9 pro fold - your opinions and experience would be great for me 🙏
Private Space (Secure Folder on Samsung) and App Pairs have been on Samsung devises for some time now, take solace in the fact that Google copies Samsung despite being to "owners" of Android.
One of the most detailed reviewers and best reviewers out there, thanks Shane! Fast review man.
I appreciate that!
Man, how are you this fast?! 😂 It just released. You always make great coverage videos.
Sideloading it saves a lot of time lol. We also knew a lot of this from the betas.
If I’m in beta do I need to do anything to change on my end for the official releases

@@scaryifliteralhow do the app icons behave now after the update? Is the front screen layout synced when you unfold to the 8" screen?

Nice! Thanks!
Enjoying this on my 9 pro fold. You wasted NO time. Lol.
Ah, app pairs. Loved that feature on the Surface Duo.
Doing the same as I watch this. Installing (1.07GB) on my 9 Pro Fold.
Thanks for the vid! I had another one saved to the watch later and after I saw yours drop I replaced that one with this!
Great video, Shane! 👏🏻

hey Shane did google add separate customization from the outer display to the inner display? like what samsung does with their Z Fold6?
Nope
Meanwhile Microsoft keeps updating their foldables (NOT)

Great Titans hoodie. Titan Up!
Through the tears
@scaryifliteral Haha true. Very poor season so far.
No desktop mode improvements?
The new changes to the camera app or is that a pixel drop
Show long app names is not working on my P8P. I'm still seeing the truncated names. Anyone having the same issue?
I think it's broken
Any updates on tablets?
I'm on Pixel 9 Fold but no OTA available
Same thing, what to do?
@@aryannegi07 wait it out.
Dumb question, is there a way on OnePlus Open to hide the dock like on Pixel on standard?
Not that I know of
Do you know if they fixed the issue where you couldn’t do voice commands such as call so and so in a Lock Screen ?
Do you mean the one where it would ask you to unlock first? I kinda of solved this on my Magic V3 by using "Extend Unlock" and setting my watch to keep the phone unlocked but it's not a prefect solution.
@@maddada yup that one exactly .. I don’t want to always have it unlock .. I just think they should have something so basic down .. but what do I know

No issues so far
How come I can't see the android 15 update on my 9 pro fold?
Same I didn't get it either in US unlocked
@@CarlosSanchez-gc5qu same situation, not getting any update
@@aryannegi07 kinda sucks I was on beta 15 qpr1 it was fine had a glitch here and there was so wanting the stable now waiting don't make no sense
had opted out from and15 beta but haven't received stable release yet. It is showing downgrade update available but data will be wiped out mentioned!

I think if you don't install you can still wait for 15

This is an excellent video. Great summary
I did a search on Gemini and it basically said I was screwed. Have to bite the bullet for my mistake
Still no new kernel on my Pixel 8 pro...
Archive App, Nod to Next it Robbin.
Live Translate is not working after update, so wait with updating of you use this function.
What about the desktop mode?
Just on the tablet for now

QPR is beyond A15 so you're waiting for QPR stable or you'll have to wipe.
