Also shane, tent mode does work, you just have to open the phone up all the way and then slowly close it to tent size and give it a second and will work.

@tyronepratt9440 7 ай бұрын

For those unaware, Flex mode works better the other way around. Just use it with the camera side up. I know it seems like it would tip over with huge camera bump, but of the 2 batteries in the Open, the heavier battery is on the outside screen side.

you can use tent mode with a slight workaround. Open the camera app and use the selfie view that will turn off the inner display and show camera app on main display while still open. Then you can close the camera app and open youtube etc. This can also be used as reverse laptop mode so you don't have the hinge snapping issue you mentioned.

Well done Shane. It's nice to see somebody that knows their way around the phone well enough to help me to know whether or not it's the things that I find important should I get it. I do have one question though. Since you went over a lot of camera things and that is, can you pull a shot from a video and make it a picture. Often when I'm trying to capture something specific, I don't always use my camera. I record a video and then look for the perfect picture and frame it. Just wanted to know if you could do that with the OnePlus open?

@williamcopeland2617 7 ай бұрын

Good video, Shane. You by far explained and broke down everything much better than other reviewers. Hopefully you can do a comparison with the phone to the DUO 2. Microsoft really hit a homerun as far as multi-tasking goes, and just made it so simple and easy compared to these other foldables. Keep dropping videos and thanks again.

Awesome video. I'm actually struggling to get this device or keep my Chinese Oppo. After watching your video I realize that nearly ALL the settings are the same. I'd basically be "upgrading" for a little more screen real estate and Android Auto. Meh. OH, also, tent mode is..... KINDA there. At least on my Oppo Find N2 Fold. I find that if I start a video on the outer display, go landscape, then slowly open and set down in a tent, it generally stays in tent mode.

Great video. Thanks for the detailed walk thru. I am guessing you are still going to do a 1+ open v Fold 5 video after using the phone for while ? I am now thinking of getting the Open, Samsung got too complacent, if 1+/Oppo could do this within 3 years why couldn't Samsung do more after 4 years before they came out with the fold 5 ? Oppo/ 1+ are on to something. Samsung watch out. I think the Oppo flip 3 is better than the Samsung flip 3 too. Why do Samsung keep making narrow phones???

For me I’ll have to wait for the fold 6/ pixel 2/ open 2 and make a decision.. 2 phones is my limit for right now.. but I want it, but not willing to give up my z fold so I’ll enjoy it through videos.

Then randomly my messages app is greyscale which is what want but idk how it got to that color when all other google apps are still teal. And some random google apps are brown like the discover panel. its super annoying that i cant theme those, i hate the brown color that most apps are now. i hope oneplus will better optomize oxygenOS with material you/ google apps. I would use HEX for samsung to theme everything exactly how i want but its only for oneUI themes. is there any themeing app i can use that doesnt require ROOT?
