I don't mind the bulkiness of cases for these phones. I like the slim factor. And all cases I get have to have the hinge protector. One i just got the other day has a compartment for a couple cards. Super convenient. No size difference between without.
I ain't gonna lie, the controller accessory makes it look like that PS5 handheld device they just announced lol
Haha you're right! But this is better and more expensive lol
Never seen any phone with controller before?
That ps portal is a rip off
It will work
100x better than that POs Sony just released
Erm. No it doesn't at all.
5:11 for me, i always end up taking those off when i eventually need some brightness. But whats cool about it on this phone is that i have another larger screen without it. So really im not sacraficing anything by using a privacy screen on the much smaller display. This is a must have for me with this phone
Yep, you got it! Debating on taking it off due to the clarity, but I love having that privacy when I'm traveling and I'm sitting next to someone.
@@HeyMarkL im a degen, i need it
Instead of the Bluetooth controller get the GameSir X2 or the GameSir X2 Pro, they are usb C, but they hug the device just like the controller that you showed, there are no cables... Also the GameSir controllers have a passthrough charging, so you can play and charge your phone at the same time.... I got the original GameSir X2 and I use it to play on my S23 Ultra and Z Fold 5, the S24 Ultra is coming in a few days.
This was a very good video! Straight to the point and great options. Thanks!
i added the Mag safe ring ( $14.00 from best buy ) to the s-pen case and it works great and catches a lot of attention
Did you add it to the official s pen case? Does the pen bump not get in the way?
Does it line up to actually charge it too?
@@funkam0nkey yes it did, i measured it and clipped off the extra and had a c instead of a complete circle, charges fine with no issues an attaches magnetically to my iphone charging stand as well.
Thanks for the demo and info, have a great day
Have that controller for my fold 4. Total game changer, literally. For cases, ive settled on a latercase with an ohsnap grip, and 2 ringke pen holders toward the hinge side for the pen. It's not the prettiest, but by far the most practical setup ive found. Ive tried most all of em. Cant stand the bulk added by the big cases or the pen holder on the side by the finger reader.
Mark nice video...
The Torras case comes with both S Pen 4, & 5 options, Fold 4's S pen inserts into the case as your showing it in this video.
theres a smaller black rubber insert that will accept the S Pen 5...
It' may appear that the 5 pen wont press into the insert, but just that you haver to insert the pen sideways...
Thanks
I bought the torras mag safe case..it came with a rubber insert to hold the newer slimmer s pen, or it could be taken out and will hold the older fold 4 s pen version. I bought mine back in October
I had that controller for like a year and a half. Im still using it for my note 20 ultra. Great controller
I love the torras but i wish it had something covering the hinge
What YT reviewers won't tell you about the Fold 5 S-pen case is the S-pen is loose inside the holder, spins and falls out. 2:11 the previous S-pen Fold edition that came out with the Z Fold 3 is compatible with Z Fold 3,4,5 and is what probably fits inside the Torras case
That's a defect. You would return it and get a new one. My spen is held in and is solid with no movement.
Its the blue colorway that loose
I have the black pen case and the pen is firmly situated. It's a fine case, all I need.
There was a first batch issue with the blue cases and Samsung offered replacements.
@@bazanime Correct
As others said. There was a defect. Mainly with the blu version. My cream one doesn't wiggle at all.
How good is that rig? Is it meant for this playform?
Fantastic content, thank you
My Z Fold 5 came with a free S-Pen Fold edition. I purchased the Torras case, but after a few days with it I returned it. I found the pen mount on the side interfered too much accessing the side buttons with the phone closed. So the fingerprint reader function wouldn't work properly.
I wish Samsung allotted internal space to keep the S-Pen mounted within the phone body itself, like the S22 Ultra. That was the best design. I'm opting to not carry my S-Pen, and only use it at home...which is unfortunate.
Loved with video dude! would you know if you could use that MagSafe ring sticker along with the official spen case? Would the mag safe hold through the case?
@@arn0ld93 MagSafe rings are intended to be located on a specific point on the back of the phone at the wireless charging spot. The pen holder on the Samsung S-Pen case would off-set the ring from that charging spot. So, it might possibly fit on the back, but you wouldn't be able to charge via MagSafe chargers (though it should still hold the device to a MagSafe compatible phone holder ring). And I don't believe that trimming away the portion of the ring which would overlap the pen holder would work either as any MagSafe connection couldn't lay flat on the ring due to the pen holder bump out...
Great accessories
The gamesir controller has the usb c port on the left and works with the official gadget case on (without gadget)!
How's the lint buildup on the front cover selfie camera holes ? I had it happened last year zf4 and it drop me nuts 😅
You know, not too bad with the privacy protector, but I'm assuming if you don't clean your screen often, the build up might drive you insane, but mine has been great so far!
Is that controller plug and play with games when using the ps5 with remote play? Or does it need to be mapped etc.
Plug and play
Just got the spen case for $50 on black Friday!
What kind of mount dis you had on your desk when you were showing the magsafe case from torras ? I saw a magsafe mount in your desk
That’s the Balolo desk shelf with their accessories. It’s pretty neat.
I have the graphite kickstand case and also the blue s pen case... i wish they made black case with red color pen ! Would be dope.
Does the S-Pen case still allow wireless charging through the case?
never tried to wireless charge the fold 5 @@glsinsight
@@glsinsightit worked for me
I had a s pen case for about 2 hours and i returned it immediately. My pen kept falling out of the case, I was really shocked that could happen, especially for the price of the case
heard a lot about this issue recently
Yea i had to bootleg that shit and put tape. But that did the trick. Its the best case that has spen slot though
I had no problem with mine guess im lucky :v
I have that same controller since the Fold 4 and it's so nice with the Fold 5 especially with the pen case. I play Xbox Gamepass and Emulation.
Question for you. Does gamepass have a lot of games to play on the zfold with the controller? I can not even get Call Of Duty to work with the controller. Even though its connected it is not recognizing it
@@jamesvillar3252 Strange.. i'm about to get the same controller as the video, hope to not get your same issue.. Now i'm gaming with a GAMESIR X2 Bluethooth on FOLD 5, but for my big hand is too much tiny.. GamePass has a lot of great games but here in italy with our connection so slow i don't recommend it!
Bro im looking for a tripod stand to film youtube fold 5 is thick any recomendations
Contact torras and get the z fold 5 spen attachment. Some people haven't been getting the attachment in the box.
If using the dbrand can we still use the spen slim case or will it remove the skin?
Can still use it!
@@HeyMarkL awesome just have to take it off delicately I imagine
@@HeyMarkL can you make a short so we can see it? Also, if you add a MagSafe ring to the back with a dbrand, still use a case?
Great video. Btw, which icon and wallpaper you have on phone you're holding in left hand at 5:00?
Typically my backgrounds are from Backdrops and the icon pack for that is Nova Dark 🙏🏻
@@HeyMarkLThanks!
I’ve been wanting to leave mine naked as I haven’t really found a case I like. How is it holding up with just the skin? Thanks
Been using it with the dbrand skin since Day 1 really and it's holding up really well! Would highly suggest taking the micro fiber cloth it comes with and really 'polish' or run the microfiber cloth on the edges around the skin to really make sure the sides and corners stick to the phone and give you that seamless feel and look.
Fold 5 has UFS 4.0
are there any External SSD with speeds of UFS 4.0
I got the Samsung case with a stand for the Fold 5. It looks great, BUT the back case did have some wiggle room to it. Not a lot, but enough to be annoying when you use it, especially considering it's an $80 case. The front case was fine because it had adhesives, but I was disappointed, considering it's literally the Samsung case for a Samsung phone. I even visited the Samsung store, but they said there was nothing they could do about it. I ended up putting some two-sided tape to fix it, but I'm really disappointed in Samsung for this, considering it's an amazing phone.
Does the magsafe case fit the phone with the screen protector on it with no issues? Great video!
Yep! It sure does.
@@HeyMarkL Thanks!
So as of now, it now supports the new spen, its an insert that goes into the slot that makes it for the new pen
Can u cover the material used on the cover eg.. TPU or polycarbonate
Galaxy Fold5 skin is Awesome !!! Thank you, this channel. i'll subscribe one
does the spen from fold 4 work with fold 5? if yes I probably wouldn't buy the spen case
Technically it should work. If you have it maybe the Torras case might be best for you. But they might've fixed the case already to fit just the new S Pen.
Does that privacy screen protector come off easy of I don't like it ?
Yep of course! Just like any glass screen protector, it comes off easily with no residue.
nice dbrand skin
The Nacon MGX Pro will eventually stop working because it is not actually meant to fit the fold. I've bought two and the analog stick and triggers eventually gave out on both unless the controller is closed now. Wouldnt recommend at all.
Oh dude I used to watch you on Techno Buffalo had no idea you had your own channel so cool to find you again.
Omg thank you for the support! Appreciate that 🙏🏼
Will the esr magsafe ring work on the back of the phone?
Yeah I hear those are pretty good. A bit thicker than what I recommended but theoretically should work the same.
@@HeyMarkL I was wondering cause I heard from other people that the rings are to big and cover the camera but it clearly does not. Thank you!
I use the esr and think they're thin and hold good too
@HeyMarkL how did you get the Simpsons hit and run on your phone!? I love that game
Emulation via Dolphin!
5:09 which wallpaper is that?
Also awesome video!
For the life of me, I dont know why they dont just make a varient of the backbone controller with the usb on the other side for foldables??
can you share what icon pack that is on the right phone at around 4:50?
Play Samsung S5 Mini case sucks
Does the controller works for every game?
Which phone do you prefer 15 pro max, fold 5 or s23 ultra?
Hi.
May i ask what's the name of the controller?
Linked in the description!
I just wanna make sure the z fold 5 also works with the rig mg-X, because the pro is expensive
The only case I liked and got is Carbon slim case front and back from Aliexpress, 35$ but it is worth it! The rest cases are all not slim at all.
I want one without pen holder wow mag safe get with it.I love your content 💯 percent new sub.
Your brand link is incorrect.
Nice vid. Thanks. The dbrand link is broken.
Ah, that's weird! Should be all fixed now. Thanks for tuning in :)
I have the PlayStation backbone controller version and the subscription is well worth it
Those controller adapters, if it can't be usb-c wired, then I'm sorry that's definitely a design oversight. I'm typing this on my z fold 5, and I'm sad to say that I may take this back and just get the s23 ultra. Better camera, and no weird form factor screen...
Does the S-Pen case allow wireless charging???
Yes, it does.
Oh, what about the attachable keyboard I've seen for the Folds? Anybody have or had one? Are they worth it?
Gonna check out the 🎮... But please leave the names of the accesories up while talking about them.
Anyone have any idea how to get the controller to work with Call of Duty mobile. It does not see the controller even though it is connected Via blue tooth
The Case holds the £99 Spen the flip chip version why its so long mine fits perfectly
Please fix the links they no longer work
Torres Case is nice but pen holder makes it difficult to scan fingerprint
Yeah I’m wishing they made one without the S Pen.
What was the Simpsons game you showed? For what console?
Simpsons Hit and Run for Gamecube!
@@HeyMarkL so cool seeing that being played in a phone. I need to learn how to do that. I have fold 4. Waiting on the 6 to come out to make the switch
The cover is way better then the cover who was awhileble for the Fold 4 i use the pen soo its makes a difference but all of that no way!!!
I gotta ask about The Simpsons Hit and Run. How did you get that running on the Fold? 😂
Dolphin Emulator 🤫🤫🤫 hahaha
Chapter markers please.
how did you get simpsons hit and run on your phone?
Just bought the controller!!!!
Got it for $120 at verizon 😊
Wait howd you get simpsons hit and run on there lol
You really put a link in your description that has malware in it??? Your Dbrand link is just mailware!!!! Wow!
How you playing Simpsons hit and run????
haha 😅 oh the beautiful world of emulators!
No wireless charger yet
I'd rather buy the spigen case for the phone rather than the Samsung one
NaimaAli I like the phone case
Le zfold 5 doit être chargé à 25w maximum
For the algorithm. 🤙
Yeeee buddy!
First i need Samsuny Galaxy Z fold 5 for such accessories
What is the Simpsons game?
The S Pen case is very uncomfortable and heavy. Plus slippery
wish the controller was cable not bluetooth
NaimaAli are you love Zfold 5
$100 for a case that doesn't even protect the hinge! No way! I'll stick to my $25 case with hinge protection.
the hinge protection is ugly
After seeing how stupid the 15 pro max is. Might. Get s24 u or fold 5
It looks like a 3DS
you lost me with the samsung case.. you do know it will eventually gey loose right? how long hv u been using it? 2 days? 😅
Been using it for a month, still going strong.
My z fold big screen quit working after less than a year, piece of junk, I got a regular phone and the battery last a me a very long time now
Ugly crease in the middle of screen is unacceptable since this phone price is £ 1700.00
You don't see it AT ALL when the screen is on. I have one. Go to the store and look at one in the store
$50 Bucks for a stylus.
Are you guys out of your *GODDAMN FUCKING MINDS!?!*
Didnt work for Genshin
Why were the cases picked out ones that will not protect your phone at all when its dropped and neither of them have spine protection which is the weakest part of the phone which wasn't even mentioned horrible video you basically have no idea how the phone works or whats good for it
You DONT NEED Galaxy Z Fold 5 :D
I will NEVER buy a samsung fold again!!! My fold 3 (never dropped) main screen got a black line down the middle one monthe after warrenty expired (70% use was done on front screen). They didn't give a sh_t!!!
Insurance is an amazing thing
Um ok. I love my fold 5. Best thing ever
I used fold 2 and here's what I have to say about fold phones. Do not buy fold. Yes it's the most productive smartphone that turns into a tablet but even with all the refinements it is going to break after two years. First you're going to lose the outer screen just completely black. Then you're going to lose speakers. Then you're going to lose bluetooth or wifi. With that being said let me tell you the reason- the hinge basically has a life span which Samsung claims is 200000 folds but in reality it's less than that and given if you use it on average 50 folds a day it will break within 1 year if you use it about 20-30 folds it will break within 2 years. Now the worst part most of the fold owners had problems outside the warranty i.e after 2 years or so and the repair cost is 1000 $. When I did some digging on reddit and Samsung xda community forum I found fold 3 and 4 users also with the same problems. So no matter what you tubers say about folds I'm never buying one again period. No buts no ifs
