Fyi There is a software feature in the setting that allows the fingerprint sensor to be always on so you can just touch the sensor and it unlocks. Nice video!
Thanks for the pro-tip. I need to enable that. -LS
@@LinusTechTips wow
That’s convenient, thanks for the heads-up.
@@LinusTechTips isn’t it like rly early in Canada go sleep bro
I came to say this but you beat me to it 🤣
I consider UA-cam without the stories feature, a feature of itself.
wtf is stories anyway??
@@colinstu Those little things clips you see below videos sometimes, UA-cam shorts is another name, but you can also add photos.
I would pay 10x to get rid of shorts
@@itsmrdante6274 shorts are awful, I wish that crap wasn't on this platform.
@@colinstu I don't mind them tbh, they don't bother me at all, but I don't watch them either.
Hi Linus! As a fold user, the Fold has an option in the Lock Screen menu where you can turn on wake by touching the sensor instead of having to press down on it.
This!!! Too bad Linus didn't even know...
@@davediggz In Linus's defense, there are loads of settings menus on this. Considering returning mine and waiting on the Pixel Fold instead, I'm not using half these Samsung apps.
@@davidmalkowski7850 1) you don't have to use them and you can still get the best of both worlds since 2) some Samsung apps are better than Google ones eg Notes
@@bobmarley7787 That may be true right now, but I expect that to change when Google hammers out their Fold.
Thank you! Moving from a phone with an in display fingerprint reader that was always on to having to push the button and then using the reader was a bit annoying.
I have the fold3 and is an incredible device, having more foldables from other companies will make samsung to step up and offer new and better features. Future looks very exciting
How’s your fold 3 holding up? I’m planning to get it but afraid of having screen issues
You've gotta trust Linus to drop every shiny new thing that comes to the studio. 🍻
The right of first drop
Gotta say I'd blame this one on the packaging 🤷♂
classic
it's an unbreakable curse
@@kohakkanuva3224 fr, by this point I know it's not on purpose!
This actually looks like a foldable phone I could imagine myself using, from a hardware perspective - most phones always feel too tall and thin for me, and this looks right up my alley.
I think Phones in general feel to tall and wide currently. I used a Xaomi mi 10 T pro for the last year and dropped it often just because I cloud not safely hold it with one hand. About a month ago I bought a iPhone 8 to try out a smaller phone for a low price. I did not drop it once where the Xaomi was already shattered after a month because it dropped like 200 times.
I think there should be a „small“ phone option witch is not a super cheap POS phone which bearly works when new
@@TJayVariable My solution has been to slap a wallet case onto everything, it'd be nice to not have to rely on that though 🤪
exactly!
@@TJayVariable there is iPhone mini
All about G I R T H
Hi Linus, the fingerprint touch to wake is definitely a setting you can turned on on z fold 3. I confirmed this on my fold 3 and my co-worker's flip 3. I hope this helps🙂
Can confirm!
Well looks like apparently he has not been using Galaxy fold 3 for 6 months cause first it's not been six month since the release and second he don't know that this setting exist.
@@2b.or.not2b he got it early..
@@SilvanPierce i do agree that these big reviewers get product early. Vut to get the product in mid of june is unbelievable and secondly isint the review product need to be returned and not use as a daily driver. Jist a thought.
Is the same for the S10e
Honestly, couple of months of owning a a flip, the IP rating has perhaps been the most important feature for me. Especially as someone living in Vancouver. I can be so much more careless with my phone around rain and water. That peace of mind is actually worth a lot.
Someone: Who’s gonna watch ShortCircuit at 3 in the morning?
Me: Oh boy, 3 AM!
Me : On the other side of the world 🤩
2am for me right now

@@vince-p.8591 Almost 4am for me... I should've gone to bed 3-4 hours ago... 😴
5 AM for me
I love the fact that Linus drops every single foldable phone he gets to review.
Even without trying. It's now second-nature for him. Functional clumsy is what I call myself but I have medical issues that cause mine unlike Linus. Ha ha.
I'm sure it's scripted in
he drops almost everything he touches
Didn't Nvidia ban him from handling their stuff at tech shows now?
@@komali2 can't tell if you're joking
It is pretty amazing what they have done with that hinge, I appreciated the little segment on it.
I like they decided to make it a little wider when folder like the surface Duo. Can't wait to see where foldable phones are at in a few years!
"More noticeable than I allowed myself to admit"
That's self reflection you don't often get.
Good on him
@@Ikxi Absolutely
The fingerprint reader can be enabled all the time on the Z Fold 3 in the settings so you don't have to press it
I just upgraded but I'm very interested to see where foldable tech is in 2-4 years when I'm next considering upgrading again. Exciting stuff!
The z fold 3 NOT having the stories "feature" is one of the reasons I most enjoy it lol
Right? Stories are annoying
he is a creator, you are a consumer. It's good to know when those things clash in needs.
@@dymo7607 I understand your point, but the sad thing is he acts like a normie.
The UA-cam story issue might be a deal breaker on a platform like iOS.
On Android you have at least 3 different ways to fix it, one of which gets you a better UA-cam app without ads and more features.
Yet he acts like it's some wall in front of his path someone with his skillset and knowledge base can't overcome.
@@leonfrancis3418 well even on iOS you can get the cracked version. That’s actually the one I’m using right now. But the point of reviews aren’t about finding loop holes it’s about reviewing how the company made the phone, and how it is compatible from the box.
You can have Stories on ZFold if you open UA-cam on the external screen. It does not works 100% of the time but I can live with that :)
Getting Netflix to work on non certified devices is more than just sideloading the app. Even if the app opens, Netflix will run at a low quality resolution because the device isn't approved.
You can't really blame Oppo for that tho, it's not a global phone (at least not yet). So the software WILL feel a bit janky since there's a lot of app that's banned on China but used regularly by everyone else
And corporations wondered why people pirate their stuff 🤷♂️
@AMOYY CERIIA get help
@@FireWyvern870 It's actually not a Netflix approval thing, but an anti-piracy thing
Does aurora playstore fix that?
That teardrop design in the hinge is the same as what Motorola did on their folding screen flip phone. I like how OPPO did it on a large scale phone.
Didn't that design have a lot of failures?
lenovo (who owns motorola) did it with the thinkpad fold
@GH0STST4RSCR34M why would you buy a expensive phone, them decide to stick a pen in it?
@GH0STST4RSCR34M Seems Oppo also adjusted the hinge and made it more uniform instead of what Moto did with the Razr. The Razr only had the outer hinges with a flimsy one in the middle, but Oppo did multiple hinges so it's more uniform, stronger. I wanna see Jerry take it apart and see how they've made the design better.
Never change Linus; keep dropping things, it just makes me happier :D
There is no way to express the amount of comfort I was feeling at the start of this video compared to the mix of emotions after getting gnomed at the end of 2021
lmao ikr
The hardware looks really good, but yeah, software still needs some work. I suspect this also still ships with Android 11, and thus doesn't have all the foldable tweaks of Android 12 or the upcoming Android 12L. Once those release, the experience will hopefully be better, especially wrt to portrait vs landscape mode.
Fwiw, I'm not sure apps always decide on pixel count for the orientation, since there are clearly landscape tablets which work just fine. It's probably just a configuration issue or a problem with having two different screens - one portrait, one landscape.
Landscape tablets lock the screen rotation out of the box, that's why they stay like that, you can unlock it if you want aswell
Well, it ships with Android 12, those mobile news sites somehow got it wrong thinking it run Android 11
I just wish there was a way to just go native Android os on Samsung devices. Pixel is cool, Samsung still feels bloaty with all the features.
@@bmhater1283 are you sure? Most sites list it as Android 11, Color OS 12 UI (that's just the skin, not Android!).
Also, it doesn't _look_ like it incorporates the Android 12 changes, but it may just be heavily skinned. Regardless, Android 12 isn't perfect yet either for foldables, 12L should hopefully deliver the necessary improvements.
Well, the great thing about having more open system like android, is that you can do virtually anything with it. You can just install custom firmware (although considering phone's unusual features that is not a good option probably), you can go in root mode and tear out all this garbage they installed, replace the virtual keyboard, etc.
8:25 That is sadly due to Samsung cooperation with Google on the android for foldables, in a future update they might fixed this so the aspect ratio will be for the default horizontal or vertical screen instead depending on the phones screen.
Probably it will be implemented in android 12L, but we'll see
0:44 "UA-cam doesn't include the 'stories' feature."
My desktop UA-cam doesn't have it either. Never heard of it.
As a Fold 3 user, You can change the wake on touch behaviour of the Fold 3 finger print sensor. its just off by default.
Under 10 seconds, linux proceeded to gnome us. Thanks for bringing that dead meme back from the grave. Also can’t wait for jerry durability test on this oppo phone
I liked the one from 13:33 the most! Didn’t see it coming
I hope Samsung is taking notes -- I would love for the Fold4 to have a wider screen on the front, or maybe Samsung has seen enough sales with the F3 that they could split the Fold stack to a Fold and Fold Ultra line, with the standard having the current form factor and the Ultra having a more "regular" aspect ratio for the front.
I don't like when you unfold it, it become square, i like the fold 3 is closer to 16:10 ratio when using horizontally, if you watch any video there's not much different than just put the oppo phone horizontally instead of open it up...
why not start researching on bendable glass asap? Or, at least, if it's like the news say that it's "ooga booga corrosive ooga booga metal go bad", then use a goddamn plastic layer below the actual glass
too late, cellphones usually have 2 - 3 year development cycle
dude the display is from samsung
@G Money the narrowness makes it so easy to use one handed. Moreso than other non foldable flagships which are too wide
I really like that the editor doesn't really bend in the middle. Keep it firm and straight ma dude!
Candy bar mode is one of the things I like about the phone. I like it slimmer . Yes smaller but after your used to it its so much easier to navigate control and use the device in a smaller footprint
.
I can't believe I got Gnome'd on Short Circuit.
I TRUSTED YOU LINUS! I TRUSTED YOU!
That's because Oppo/OnePlus have gotten really good at polishing their devices into top competitive flagships.
yeh and having zero software support with buggy updates.
I spat out my cereal when the gnome came out. Thanks Linus, now I have to clean up my desk before starting work
Been using the Fold 3 for a few months now and I agree with the start of this video. It absolutely has flaws, but I could not go back to a regular phone
0:27 Yep, that's a Linus video already . . .
that gnome was actually perfect
i near pissed myself laughing, it was so unexpected ahaha
Love the close up shot of Linus when he said “Gorgeous”! Yes you are sir!
The touch to wake on the Fold 3 is a setting instead of the full push. It was the first thing i changed when i got the phone haha
Considering all the Volta sponsorships you do, I don't recall you including them in the USB-C cable testing.
Was this because you forgot, couldn't or they just didn't pass?
Because I would love to have some cables like that but I'm worried about the integrity of the connection, as I don't want to ruin expensive tech... specially when replacing them would cost me double retail price right now.
Maybe a cable testing video of just the magnetic type like Volta cables, would be great.
probably because its not something they use, and also as far as i can tell theyre being marketed as primarily a charging cable not something for data transfer, does the cable tester have metrics that track durability and charging ability?
Its better to not use magentic cable for data simce u might accidently disconnect it
They just went to a shop and bought the regular one that you find, no fancy stuff
it is probably because it only allows for charging.
@@Varocka and everyone else, thanks for the replies.
I didn't know the Volta cables didn't do data, I just seen the pin outs on the head and thought it had them all.
Not sure if it tracks charging ability, but does tell you if they meet different specs and what they fail on (example signal integrity or resistance etc).
0:05 WTF LINUSCLAUS
You've been gnomed
I've had fold 3 since launch. Crease is a non issue not noticeable to me anymore it's it's great phone .
Hey editor, that final half a second made me laugh. Good job.
I want a foldable like this or the Z Flip, that I can easily repair myself (including buying parts that don't cost as much as the whole phone), and under a 1000 bucks. Then I'd seriously consider buying one.
As a fold 3 user, i am impressed. Also, yes, can't go back to regular phones now lol
Most definitely. I love my fold3
i had absolutely no issues with finger print reader on my Z fold 3, plus i like the ergonomics and feel of the Fold 3.
You can completely resize instagram to work on the large screen of your Fold 3. I have mine take up the entire screen.
Love to see more foldablw competition. Replacing my note might be easier, but lack of SD card slots is a huge bummer, especially given how cheap I got my 256gb one lol
This, I got a Note 20 Ultra, so I'm set for a while, I'm hoping maybe they'll be a resurgence in SD cards or much cheaper flash storage in the 3-4 years that I need to replace this phone.
@@TaylorCohron I was going to upgrade my S10+ to the note 20 ultra a few months ago, since they didn't drop a new note this year, but apparently the new s22 ultra will become the note replacement so I might go for that. Definitely will miss the storage though, not sure why they thought removing that was a good idea
exactly,storage has become waaay cheaper than is absurd they don't add the capability to expand your device's storage
@Carl Gunderson But what does that have to do with the comments? The comments were about expandable storage lol
@Carl Gunderson Doesn't mean it'll have expandable storage. On that we'll have to wait and see the full spec list. I hope it does have that along with the rest of a proper Note spec list.
if they didn't have the inside camera I'd be sold. I still LOVE my Fold 2
for me the tall arrow shape of samsung is the thing that i love.. its soo beautiful..if you want to use front display soo much just use a diferent phone.!
I think the last phone to do that teardrop shape for folding the screen was the Motorola Razr. If I recall correctly, it was fantastic when you opened it, then just utterly awful to use and extremely noticeable once you've opened and closed it a couple hundred times. I just hope that Oppo has figured out a way to do a similar system without the downsides.
Legendary ending .....
Linus, You actually have to turn on that screen unlock feature on your settings. It does have one.
Thanks! Lol it works lol
There's an option in the Developer settings to force allow floating for any app, just know that if the app doesn't support it, it may lose data if you resize the window.
I love my Z Fold 3, I don't think I could go back to a normal phone. So I'm supper happy to see more competition and innovation.
I'll wait for the tri-fold or rolling equivalent with no redundant display.
Even if it means waiting a while.
It would be super convenient to have documents open at the same time as being in a call or chatting in a messenger or even sharing a chrome tab across a messenger or meeting on the phone.
not being a able to fold or angle the second screen is the only downside of a rolling device, which is why I like the gold, but tri fold just sounds so inconvenient.
Man, that picture of how they give more space for the fold just feels good to look at.
1:35 Z Fold 3 can wake up with just a touch of fingerprint, please set it under Settings -> Biometrics and Security -> Fingerprints -> Fingerprint always on.
The fact the fold3 is not completely flat when closed is actually helping preventing screen to get destroyed if for some reasons some dirt would happen to be in between
Oppo " z fold 3 " is exactly what I needed 😝
The fold 3 has a always on fingerprint setting, as a daily driver this really helps
🤣🤣
Just like others are saying in the Biometrics on the Sansung you can click Wake with Fingerprint and it will IMMEDIATELY open the phone up. I have the fold 3 and found it while tinkering around
Glad companies are taking the good parts of the new Razor phone and implementing them into the big fold design. Always liked how they used the teardrop fold, just hated the whole moving screen thing...
4:00 so it’s gonna scratch at level 3 with deeper groves at level 4 then
This looks like something I'd definitely use. The aspect ratio alone makes this perfect for emulation while feeling comfortable. Not to mention foldables seem to be the perfect goto for emulating DS games along with the plethora of other systems.
Oh man I love watching videos of tech I'll never ever have money to buy
Love the form factor of this one.
The gnome got me lmao
For they first foldable, I think OPPO did a wonderful job, this was the first foldable phone that I ever wanted to buy. Just some more software adjusts and it will be a masterpiece
Could you have a dust test on Find N? I love the design but the biggest concern I have is the tear drop fold allows dust go into the phone. There is no sealing in between the screen and the hinge since the display needs to sink into chassis so the curvature of the fold is smoother. Thanks.
1:40
This wake on touch function is enableable via the system settings. It was on by default on my Fold 3. I opted to turn it off.
The aspect ratio seems a lot nicer too. Though I'd rather they achieved it by having it be the same height as the Fold 3 and wider rather than the same width but shorter! If only Samsung would add a bit of extra width, and use the space for the S-Pen storage and some more battery...
For me it's ideal, since I like smaller phones
The thing is that the fold would be nearly impossible to hold in one hand (Yes i can hold the fold 3 in one hand when open)
They could make the fold thicker to have more stuff in
Imagine a Huawei Mate 20 X (which has a 7.2-inch display) that unfolds into a larger tablet.
That would be interesting despite the inner aspect ratio still being garbage on every single foldable phone in existence.
We need Bi-Folds aka Dual-Foldable phones to release ASAP when ready.
@@LaidBackDeveloper impossible like holding an iPad mini 6 in one hand?
Not interested if it's smaller, I'd be fine with a larger outer screen but still as tall as the Zfold3. I have no problem with the height of the fold3 myself, I think it comes down mostly to Linus's preference for the non max/ultra etc sized phones in general.
I use my fold mostly tall.. all i want is it to be wider.. and then put the fold the other way and it’ll be perfect :)
that's the phone that's I always dream of , having a pocket size phone but occasionally I can transform it to be a bigger phone or tablet. As a galaxy fold 2 user , I totally agreed what you have said , 75% of the time we are using outer screen, for a quick peek of ig, fb, browsing on a short video while you waiting ... the aspect for find n is way preferable for me over galaxy fold.
I like my Fold 3. The hinge does wear in a little to indent more than out of the box. I also use most things on the front screen. Tall is fine but it could be a little wider like the Oppo.
I’m pretty impressed. This Oppo Find N is actually making me interested in foldable for the first time.
You have 18:9 aspect ratio to thank for that.
Gonna be honest.
Oppo and xiaomi have made great midrange phones for years now and have recently entered the high end marked and they are rocking it.
I had a really hard time deciding for my new midrange phone.
Because the xiaomi note 10 5g is almost as feature rich as the galaxy a52s 5g but costs between 50€ to 100€ less. Had I not gotten the tab s7+ and a52s on a 37% sale I would probably have chosen the xiaomi.
PS
Previous phone was the xiaomi redmi 5
And yet internet is still filled with posts and messages about how laggy Xiaomi's software is. Samsung's low- and mid-range phones are overall best price-to-quality ratio. Not everyone is ready to pay the premium for the quality tho, that's how chinese phones are still around.
@@iowawalker Sorry but the software of both of them work perfectly fine. Never had any lag issues whatsoever. Also the problems linus mentioned with the software. I have never encountered them nor has anyone I know of. (My previous phones since 2015 where all Xiaomi)
Maybe the US just gets nad localisation? Because in europe the Androidversion of Xiaomi and Oppo is actually more stable and smoother running than Samsungs overloaded OS. Especially when you get the phone through another provider like Deutsche Telekom, who bloat the install up from around 4GB to 12GB in the worst cases.
@@1996Horst lol no, i use Xiaomi phone and my friends use Xiaomi phone, and let me tell you they do have lags over time. And it become unbearable for me after 4 years. Maybe its Android fault for not optimized as good as the iOS but those who said that Xiaomi phones dont have lags, its just bullshit tbh.
@@markmystery3536 then I am sad that this is your experience but mine differs... not that that is of any good to you.
@@1996Horst but you have to admit that Xiaomi software still has lag. They are still, just Android.
Man why did the gnome meme finally make me laugh so hard here? Guess it's been so long since I've seen it that it was unexpected.
@1:40 you can change a setting in android for it to unlock without actually pressing the button in, just touching the sensor
As a non fold appreciator it really seems like oppo took the time to get things right instead of the absolute disaster that was the original fold release. I still have no desire to use one, but it's interesting to watch the sub-market develop.
It all comes back to software issue. This will be perfect when google will make a foldable device and support it 100%.
Or Samsung just fixed their stupid aspect ratio and lower the price a bit.
That when u draw from middle top to down seems smooth as hell and very handy damn well i have thought to get a phone, but how many thousand dollars that is? :DDD
This 100% felt like a promotional video for Oppo
So basically, they are doing what Motorola did for their Razr foldable, but on a Fold-style clamshell. I guess times will tell if it develop same "Double-crease" problem that Moto Razr encounters instead.
Yes this. Many chinese brands only shine in the present and forget the long run user experience. Lack of software updates, bad software optimization and polish, and other things. Chinese brands also love to experiment with crazy tech like these hinges on this oppo, because they don't care if they fail in 1-2 years of use. They will quickly forget about it and try to sell you a new completely different, crazier one. Maybe samsung is trying to stick with what they tested and what they can trust will last many years of use. Too many brands only care about the present... and these reviews also only review them when they are brand new, not with many months of use
Not to mention they don't have any IP rating on this phone and nothing is said about any mini brushes that auto clean and protect the hinges like the samsung does. So I guess this oppo will not last long, once dust starts to get in that hinge. Remeber that Samsung also has gone the extra mile and actually coated all of the insides of the hinge in an anti rust clear coat, and used water and wear resistant lubricant on the hinge, so that no matter what you do with the phone that hinge will last for sure. OPPO? Did a square foldable with a slightly wider outer screen and that's it. Nothing else was mention, no protections for the hinge, nothing. This whole Linus video was talking about the wider display and a very small already double crease that's not noticeable because it is brand new. Useless video, useless phone. Move on
I like the formfactor of the oppo a lot more than the fold 3 (with a lower aspect ratio compared to that awful narrow one) but I wish it was just larger. I don't want a tiny phone that can fold out to a very small tablet, I want a normal sized phone that folds out to a more normal sized tablet. Would give me more usability in unfolded mode, more usability in folded mode, more battery since there's space for a larger battery etc. A missed opportunity in my eyes
Honestly, i have a fold.. and there is non way i can go use a smaller phone. I want a bigger one. Lol.. but I think the oppo is for people that use phones that want a tiny tablet.. vs the other folds where its a tablet that comes with a phone.
@@npcimknot958 yeah, I get that. If I could just get my current phone with a fold feature I'd have the perfect phone for me (throw in a good camera and 888 too for good messure). It's a xiaomi max 3.... So a foldable 6.9 (nice) inch phone is probably among the nicest things in existence, but man do I want it now that I'm used to having this thing in my pockets anyways
Form factor = foldable phones.
What you're talking about is called Aspect Ratio.
Oppo Find N uses 18:9 aspect ratio on the outer display while the Z Fold 3 uses an outer 25:9 aspect ratio which is garbage just like the Xiaomi Mi Mix Fold's outer 27:9 aspect ratio which is even worse.
Huawei Mate X2 uses an outer 21:9 aspect ratio which is also amazing and VERY close to the S21 Ultra's 20:9 aspect ratio. 👍👍👍
@@PSYCHOV3N0M no its not
Fold 3 aspect ratio is perfect it as allows it to be used one handed whole still having good screen real estate unlike the mate x or oppo find n
That portrait thing is probably because a lot of aps are not android native aps, but actually web aps running on electron or another web-view type of environment. Web app does not usually have access to a system environment variables and functions, or its actually not wanted to be close tied to a single environment.
I love the northern lights desk pad but It makes viewing/distinguishing all black products (like phones) a little difficult
That looks so much nicer than the Samsung foldables. I absolutely despise how tall Samsung phones are to get those bragging rights.
Apps opening automatically to portrait is an easy fix, although UA-cam reviewers keep pointing it out. Just download Rotation Control and set which orientation you want as the default or just set an individual app. These apps have been around since 2012, though it's as if they're purposely being ignored just so people have something else to complain about, oh and iOS has no such utility.
It's the same with apps that don't open in full screen when using an Android tablet or foldable phone, as once again it's an incredibly easy fix. Just remember one thing, it's Android, if you thought about, most likely someone else has to and written an app for it.
word
Honestly this is the best thing about android. If it's not perfect, you don't have to just deal with it. You can make it perfect with a small amount of effort
Having to use a third party app to gain functionality which ought to be baked in is the point, and that point should be hammered home until it's fixed.
Rotation control apps aren't some elite secret you're holding. They just shouldn't be necessary. Likewise with apps that don't run in a proper full screen format on tablets such as Instagram and Twitter.
It is baked into Android, has been forever now, the issue is with the apps themselves, specifically the developers who write this trash. Anyway, the fix still stands, sure, it might suck that you have to install a workaround but until these developers start caring about Android a little more it's the way things are.
In the scheme of things, it doesn't really bother me, as both Instagram and Twitter both run in full screen on my Tab 3 and S7 Tablet using these fixes.
@@calden74 baked into the apps* is what was implied. A better workaround would be to just use the web app versions of each rather than the Android apps. The web apps behave fine and don't require third party workarounds.
The form factor of this phone has peaked my interest in folding phones more then all folding phones past combined. Like its actually usable
Honestly, I've grown to hate autorotation, and I now leave it disabled. You don't even need it! When it's off and the phone detects you rotated, you get a small button in the corner of the display to manually rotate.

Me on the other side of the world 🤩
Fold 2 here and LOVE it.
No going back to generic phones for me anymore.
I have a fold 3 and I don't have any issues with it except that the the coating on the aluminum is not great. When he mentioned the crease I had to look for it because I wasn't seeing it on my phone.
I had to peep the Santa at 0:05 3 times before I was sure. 🤣🤣🤣
Samsung: finally a worthy opponent our battle will be legendary
And only we win
Lol that folding display from Samsung, so in either case Sammy is winning
Hinge is cool, but why would I buy a folding phone with a small screen? I wish my fold 3 was as wide as a 21 ultra and double on the inside. I'll also never buy a phone that isn't waterproof.
This. I want a bigger wider fold for 4 lol. I’m not here for baby phones.. i want a portable tablet lol
What carrier are you using with the oppo find n? Great video
for the fingerprint sensor on z fold 3 there's anoption to allow to unlock directly. From the image you show us i prefer the single visible hinge of the z fold, the oppo show 2 hinge. for every day use i prefer the tall aspect ratio, of the z fold, it stay better in the hand, but it's personal preference, for the battery i came from a note 20 ultra with exynos so everything in the univers had better battery. this is my first foldable and i never go back to a standard smartphone. Sure there are many improve to do with foldable but the convinency to ha a smatphone and a table in one davice is great
Absolutely love the idea of a foldable phone, but man, I hope we start seeing some more budget options soon. 1000$ is enough to upgrade my pc (I still run an i7-4790 and it's fine, but still, puts it into perspective), so I'm just not ready to drop that on a phone like that
M8 it’s just a price of a Gpu nowadays lol
In some ways you can say it is worth it since the regular person might use the phone more than all their other devices combined everyday, and the phone is certainly the most versatile device anyone owns, being able to do email, internet, social media, streaming, calculator, and tons of other apps, all in the palm of your hand.
This phone cost 1200$ in China. I find this as not too bad price.
@@damianbaginski1991 cool, i do not
Sounds like if Oppo made a OnePlus version of this phone we’d have the perfect folding phone.
Have you ever owned a OnePlus phone? Samsung phones are wayyyy better quality, hell, in my experience my Honor 10 is better quality than what I’ve had from OnePlus. (OnePlus 7 Pro, got screen burnin within a few months and it overheated on lightweight games which my Honor never struggled with.)
@@CyberPunkSimms My OnePlus 7 Pro seems to be doing just fine, on par with my previous Galaxy S8. Both had some burn in in the notification bar, but I honestly only see it when I intentionally open a single colored image. I also don't really play mobile games so it doesn't overheat for me, but it obviously gets warm when I charge it up (the warp charger actually keeps it cooler than if I were to charge it with a standard samsung charger).
My OnePlus One is also still working just fine which is why I am planning to reuse it for other projects.
@@th3w4tchm3n3 lucky you, the selfie camera wouldn’t even pop up, from where the adhesive had deformed and it’d take a few attempts for the camera to pop. I’m a heavy user, but from the specs, it was aimed at gamers and somewhat heavy users. I replaced it within a year, to a Galaxy Note9 which I loved apart from the poor battery and software. Ended off just switching to an iPhone X, sticking a new high capacity battery in it and it works perfectly fine and reliable. I tend to use my PC for most stuff now, but the 4 year old iPhone still smashed through tough objects, it can struggle a lot in games but the same went for the Note9.
@@CyberPunkSimms weird, my 7t pro worked just fine, and still does. I only bought an 8 for better battery life lol. In any case don't judge every phone off of the lemon you got.
@@CyberPunkSimms Ok, well I probably used my selfie cam like at max 200x over the last 2 years (thats like 10 selfies and 190 unlocks with the front cam). So I guess it could be a weak point if I was into selfies. But since I am not it's actually one of the strongest reasons why I still have my 7 Pro, I just don't need a front cam pointing at me at all times and using up some of the display.
My battery is also still surprisingly good for its age (according to CPU-Z its health is "good"), my friend with his iPhone X had to charge his twice as much.
1:35 - there is a toggle for that. You either turn the need to press or on off.
*4:50** that expression was also really smooth.*
