I too had fold 4 since last August. I traded it for the s23 ultra, and it finally feels like Samsung hit it out of the park with this one, I haven't loved a phone this much since my beloved note 10+. As far as the fold,4 goes, for me after 6 months I was over the fold. S 23 ultra is awesome in every way

I understand that! I am a full convert now into foldable phones and don't see me moving away from the Fold, but the S23 Ultra is 100% the best device out there especially if you care about the quality of videos and photos. I can't praise it enough...

Similar story here but with Fold 3 and S22U. I liked the Fold, but was so glad to be back with a slab. Note 10+ was definitely my favorite as well. I am intrigued by the Fold 5 possibilities however, and may consider going fold again.
@kaiichinose9590 Жыл бұрын
Another amazing video Alex. For me I think the slab is more my style. Reason being because the display on the s23ultra is large and apps and videos are more optimized for it but also because I always have my tab s8ultra on hand or in my work bag. I honestly can't wait to see how much the tabs9ultra will be with the next version of snapdragon. I also don't like the narrow texting or super wide texting on the fold devices not even the flip as the aspect ratio is tall and narrow. If they made the flip a little bit wider and shorter that would be something to consider.
@UnseenSpirit Жыл бұрын
@@kaiichinose9590 I've pre ordered the S23U. I love photography on phones so that was my main decision. The fold does appeal because I've stopped carrying my tablet because I cba to carry any other device. The S23U seems to be just right in all areas. That's all you need really!

That's where I'm at. I had the 22 Ultra and a Flip 4. Even with the camera difference. The ability to fold a phone is unrivaled. The Flip was great for fitting into small spots, and the Fold will be great for keeping a tablet on me with only the size of a phone. I'm stuck on which one of the new ones I'm dropping money on; but the Fold definitely seems like the way.

He is so right and if you don't do direct comparisons there really is very little difference unless You use the zoom a lot.. I will never go back to a slab phone ever plenty of experience with the 22 ultra, and the Galaxy Note. The screens the entertainment value just seems awkward and small using those phones. I thought it was just going back to the small screen on the fold front. But then I used my girlfriend's 22 ultra and it just didn't cut it anymore. The guy is 100% right The cameras don't really make that much difference anymore they are all great on pretty much any phone.. unless you're obsessed with the zoom.. I really don't miss it most pictures are not zooming in like that. Even recording the moon I can only record 33 times my girlfriend can record a hundred times with the 10 times optical zoom. There was a difference but it was not that much of a big deal.

Great video Alex, like you I got the Fold4 on launch day, and unless the Fold5 brings substantial improvements on the camera side, i will stick with this Fold4 for another year. Your video is on point. One example is the fact that the Samsung camera app on pro mode lets you use external bluetooth and usb-c microphones. I've never seen that with Apple, to be honest. I have moved slowly and completely away from Apple's closed garden. It was a pain dealing with iCloud photos on an android device, let alone downloading a copy of all my photos.
@AlexGTech Жыл бұрын
Thank you so much! Yes, I did notice that as well that the microphone behave differently, depending on how I was recording. It makes sense now that I think about it and still impressive. Honestly, unless there’s a lot of wind, I’ll probably just use the phone without an external mic, but great to know that I can use my Bluetooth and USB-c mics. I had actually recorded another three minutes talking about the ecosystem argument , for the video was already dragging on a bit 😂 i’m glad you managed to detach yourself from it though!

Thanks Nick, I think you’re right. Under heavy usage though (whole day out from 8AM, recording over 100 clips in 4K, attending conference calls, using navigation, etc) the Fold lasted till about 10PM which to me was quite impressive. Sure it would be nice if it lasted till next day under that usage but with two displays and considering my usage in this example I was pretty ok with it. Comparatively I haven’t extensively tested yet but I think you’re right, the S23 Ultra should outperform the Fold…

My general “rule of thumb” when the dust is settled and I am not actively reviewing anything is: iPhone for iMessaging and work emails, Fold 4 when I am in the studio and catching a break on gaming, watching KZfaq and Netflix, also the TAb S8 Ultra during the day for IT architecture stuff and multitasking with Dex (I am an IT architect) and now the S23 Ultra in the evenings at home or the PIxel 7 Pro if I am writing a script or texting a lot ( I love the speech to text on that). So a bit of a mixed bag, but the Fold is my go-to for most content during the day. Sometimes I pick the iPad Air in the evenings too.

Coming from the note range (2, 4, 5, 8, 10+ and 20 Ultra), I'm used to working with SNote, One Note, NotateMe etc. Since using the Fold 4 (for almost 12 mths), it just makes my workflow so much more simpler and less frustrating.

Glad I did it because I love so much the Z fold lineup. Currently I rocking a silver Z Fold 3 and cameras are not enough for me to go back to the S lineup. Besides I've got an iPhone 13 Pro Max and still has an awesome camera... so I'm gonna wait for the Z fold 5 and in that point we'll see many people trade in their S23 haha...

Wow the fold 4 actually is still better in many areas. I found the mic better. I also find the video recording better. I also find the color reproduction of the images better while 23 ultra is sharper the fold has better colors. The speakers on the fold are also better by a long shot because it's using 2 large speakers

Nice video. I prefer efficiency the Z Fold 4 was good when I had it but the S23 is so great at gaming and it has the best processing power that makes the battery more efficient thus drains slower and on the gaming side it doesn't heat up that bad like the Z Fold 4 so battery won't drain as fast

I’m switching from Apple. It’s a bit too restricting and I was a Samsung user back in the day so I’m going to see how the galaxy fold Z will do me. When I am on my phone it’s usually only for KZfaq and gaming and such I don’t use social media otherwise. But hopefully it will be a good swap

I like the fold 4, but it's been 6 months and the hinge doesn't close anymore and the cover screen has been glitching out...I get my replacement next week, but I'm highly considering switching to the S23 ultra until the fold line is more refined...I'd love to see the cover screen that's the size of a normal phone, integrated s pen, and a DUST resistance rating....until then, I'll be going back to the S line.

I got both of them too... There are some times I miss the fold 4 but as a hobby mobile photographer there is only one winner here which is s23 ultra! I'll keep having both for a little while just to make sure but as a someone who is traveling a lot I think perfect combo will be surface pro 9 + s 23 ultra! It really also depends what are the other devices u own and use in daily basis. In this case with recently ordered surface pro 9 I think I will handle my tablet things & advantages with surface and keep shooting with the s23 ultra. Also in my case I have to use fold 4 in a battery saving mode all the time, but on s23 ultra every single features are boosted! it is definitely getting the money worth! I've never been without an iPhone before! but now carrying 2 Samsung devices. I guess Apple should be stressed! :)

Reasons to not get the zfold 4 over the S23U 1. Has too slim of a front screen 2. Cannot write ✍️ on the front screen 3. Has no spen slot 4. Cameras should be way better for the $ 5. Has a noticable crease 6. It's not the upcoming zfold 5
@AlexGTech Жыл бұрын
I think it comes down to what you prioritise really. I love both for different reasons. I think if I REALLY had to pick one right now it would be (begrudgingly) the S23U because of the camera quality as I do prioritise that. Luckily I don’t have to make that difficult choice but that would be my thinking

Thanks for the video! I think my biggest pet peeve with my Z fold 3 is the lack of proper app support for the big screen. Looking at you Instagram! I was planning to move to S23U though, purely for the camera (maybe finally ditching my mirrorless for the phone came?) but if Fold 5 comes with similar camera, then I might wait for that one.😊

All i know is that regardless which phone you choose, Samsung has truly innovated in the space of choice for the consumer. I mean they kinda have always been that. Remember the "Galaxy Mega and how it was not only a tall phone but a wide one? IT was pretty much a minitablet with smartphone capabilities not too dissimilar to the Z Fold 4. The evolution into the foldable was a natural next step which makes the form factor much more practical and the general concept much more versatile.

3 month old video but you got me to sub. I am using the Note 20 Ultra and have since its launch. Love this phone and it's the first Note I have ever held onto this long without upgrading. This year I want to dip my toe into the Fold pool. So I am waiting on the Fold 5. Seeing that the Fold 4 camera is still capable of taking solid photos and videos considering they can't make it a beast like the ultra. I am now feeling better that the 5 camera will be just as good as the 4 or even a little better. Solid video again. I love that you skip all the spec info because it just comes down to how the phone works in the real world.

I was an Iphone user, like strict Iphone user but I was super curious about the z fold and z flip so I decided to buy a z flip just to see if I liked it and the only regret I have with switching is the camera quality on social media, especially the front facing camera but other than that I have no regrets.

I have the zf4. Im a bit techy guy so I use smartphone for kinda heavy use. I bought the s23U a week ago, it was indeed super beast. But, I only use it for camera. The z fold 4 is a complete package for me. IMO, zfold is for users like me, and s23U,good for vloggers, photography. Tho, the s23u for me is more comfy for gaming, i just cant go back when u started to use the zfold4. Going to give the s23u to my younger bro to his bday next week.

People are making me scared of it with the screens failing and breaking at top and bottom at the fold! One thing I don't like is how slippery it is it's like a bar of soap! Lol waiting for my cases coming and S Pen it is such a cool device I thought that crease would annoy the heck out me but its so easily over looked when screens on! Whare did you get the wallpaper that's so cool!

It’s certainly been a breath of fresh air. I’m quite fortunate to be able to keep both but I’d find it very difficult to let go of my Fold. Still use it everyday where the form factor makes more sense. But the S23 Ultra has retired my iPhone (video on that soon!) and is now my main camera when I’m not using my DSLR
