I think Google accidently made a perfect size of a new Pixel. I like the phone but folded is a perfect size and shape. Not too tall and thick.

Google at their next event: "Yeah, so we're giving up on foldables" 🤷‍♂

Bring back Surface Duo

Google is infuriating company. It's like you want to like their products but they just don't let you 😂

People complain about the outer screen of the Z Fold but i think it's nice to be able to use my phone with one hand

Watching this on my pixel fold

Could you please tell me the stand and keyboard used here 0:55

i want to know how well it wears after 1 year of full use.

Magsafe with out a case would be nice on a foldable, forced to put a case on a folding device just adds bulk

7:10 The Pixel fold form factor was a good alternative to the taller form factor like the OnePlus Open, from my perspective. But I wasn't too surprise when the majority of the consumers showed more love for a taller, bigger screen such as the OnePlus Open foldable. It has proven many times that bigger screen is better, but I still wasn't expecting that customers would show less interest in the Pixel Fold form factor (which is Google first Fold). But it is what it is. 😎💯💪🏾👍🏾

would love to have a good budget phone with this form factor and screen size (form factor once closed, not a foldable phone)

Love my fold, works perfect on Android 15 🎉.

What keyboard is at 4:42?

I have the fold 5 and it hands down the best phone I have ever had in my life. I think it just works so well. I think if Google look at their competition they can truly make an outstanding phone

I'm watching on my Pixel Fold love it and still buzzing on Android 15 beta so many updates since I bought at launch. It's a perfect size very thin great cameras. Love the weight plus with a thin case is great.

Oh well. The infamous pixel fold with huge potential👍

The Fold has only gotten better with time. The battery life has improved dramatically and the form factor is fantastic. They really need to get the price and weight down though.

5:34 this is not a problem on the Fold 5. One of many reasons why I enjoy the taller and skinnier form factor of its cover screen. It also means that when you open it you get the more useful portrait orientation rather than landscape on the P Fold.

At least for me it works very well, I do street photography, and sometimes I even print the pictures in the spot. I absolutely love to take pictures and then wheen transferring to the phone open the phone and becomes a tablet where I can edit them with more detail

Where can I get that wallpaper from the thumbnail?

the passport form factor is nice actually… I just wish they put a more durable inner display….

Wishing Pixel to come to Asia. Currently rocking the Fold 5

I love my pixel fold. I have the OnePlus open and I used to have the Galaxy z fold 4. For me, the pixel fold is the better software experience. I love the form factor. I love how the outer screen has the perfect dimensions to use in the portrait mode, but then when you open it it becomes a tablet in landscape mode. The other phones are just portrait mode expanded when you open to the main screen. I'm not a real real big fan of that. I hate the fact that Google is going to change the form factor to make it look more like the OnePlus open. As far as the apps are concerned, they did fix it where you could change the aspect ratio for full screen. And I don't really have that many issues with how the apps look. But then again, I'm not really that picky. One of my gripes with this phone is that the battery life stinks and the charging speeds are horrible. But other than that I love the device.

I love my Pixel Fold. I am super happy with it. Everything works very well and I buck the trend but I am always opening the phone because I am much happier with the larger screen and I am really happy with the portrait mode. versus the Samsung version.

Watching this on my beloved fold

Man I just cannot deal with the creases in these foldable screens.

After using the Pixel 6 and 7 Pro and having just a god awful time with them, I couldn't imagine spending $1800 on a first gen foldable from Google, not to mention it weighing a ton.

I always like the phone I am using until Jaime points out the negatives and then I can never unsee them

I think the problem with foldables and tablets in general is that apps have not been optimized for larger screens. Tablets have been around for as long as we can remember, but developers still do not optimize their apps to maximize the larger screens.

Well, at least Pixel Fold’s internal screen does not have an invasive camera cut hole. That is a plus point for me.

Watching this on my Pixel Fold, I'll upgrade to the Pixel 9 Fold or whatever it's going to be called

Shame if they move away from this design. This aspect ratio is the best for any phone foldable or not. I hope the pixel 2 is the same but with improvements.

I'll be honest, I've owned the SFold3 and the biggest issue I had was the tall design. It was bad for app optimization, some apps would not function correctly or would not be fully functional unless in split view. And the tall design on the outside made it so apps were just almost usable on the outer screen. I loved the multitasking, no other phone on the market can touch it. But in all honestly I think the passport design is a 1000x better not only for app optimization but for media consumption and for multitasking. At the time of release, the price, boarders and lack of AOSP support lost me. I hate Google and I try to de-Google every Android I own.

Last month I switched to a Pixel Fold from a Samsung Z Fold 3. I can only say massively positive things about the pixel. Having used my Fold 3 for 3 years, I had obviously gotten used to the way the outer screen felt, and Long forgotten what it felt like to use a slab phone. Just from a tactile standpoint, the pixel fold blows the Samsung out of the water, it feels so safe and secure in the hand. My primary uses of a foldable are KZfaq, and the camera. The Pixel Fold does this better than any other phone in it's class in my honest opinion!

Mine doesn't open flat, it sucks so bad. I hardly use it open as a result. The Zfold outer was rubbish, but open its awesome. Can't we just nail it?

They need to add pop up windows and i'd be happy. Apart from missing the stylus.

I have a z fold 5 and I really want to upgrade to a pixel fold 2 of the specs are decent. I want to put graphene OS on it.

I own the Pixel Fold since launch. Can't freaking wait for the Z Fold 6 to trade in.

Music files in the phone was normal years before smartphones was the standard and iPhones and Androids excisted.

I am watching this on my pixel fold and I would say that the only issue I have ever run into with this phone is the aspect ratio. I would definitely recommend it if you were to get it at a discount if not I don't think the fold two is too far away.

Omg! An After the Buzz segment!! ❤

As soon as I think I’d like a foldable, I see one up close and change my mind.

The tall and super narrow aspect ratio isn't enjoyable to use unless you like to endlessly scroll. typing sucks, feels like the keyboard is crammed. If you like to type the aspect on the pixel is perfect. Bezels are great too

Needs: even bezels, better battery, cheaper price, more included in the box, proper car mount, slot for a stylus, wireless charging, headphone jack, expandable storage.

I have a Galaxy fold 4 and plan to switch to the Pixel fold 2 (if they make one) because of the passport style design. I want to be able to use the outside screen. As it is on my Fold 4 I almost always open the thing up to type because of how narrow the outside screen is. If I don't I just make way to many mistakes typing on the tiny keyboard.

This was for sure a test device to gage interest. They new content creators would shove it down our throats, Marquess did for sure and on his podcast struggled and made excuses to keep using a phone he didn’t really enjoy. I wanted to dive into it, but a $1,799.99 for a device that has a $499.99 device chip; no thanks

Well I was thinking everything sounds great and I should get it... until I realized the battery life part wasn't in the review. That was the big criticism.

the best part is - there were no buzz :)

Lack of competition is why the pixel fold and fold from sammy are not pushing the envelope in terms of cameras, battery and thinness the way chinese foldables are. Granted sammy does have the best fold software followed by oneplus open. Nonetheless i like the size of the pixel fold i just wish for the second one they would have kept the size made it thinner, lighter with a snapdragon soc instead

Killer T-Shirt!! 😃🙂👍❤

I want the outer screen like a big phone. Samsung should have two versions the regular and a wider screen like a normal big phone.

Im currently using a OnePlus and tried most of those foldables... Im buying the PixelFold2 simply because 1PlusOPen doesnt support Android Auto on BMW. Its a deal killer 4 me.

If Google adopts the One Plus form factor with the Pixel software... GAME OVER

I like Pixel Fold display aspect ration and size. It's very usable with one hand unlike Microsoft Surface Duo that is too wide or Samsung Fold that is too narrow and tall.

More importantly pixel exclusive android and security and hardware should match apple nd samy. Google services are top notch like maps,browsing, customisation. But google must have pixel exclusive operating system

I don't need a phone with massive compute power. Tensor G2 is more than adequate for me. The P-Fold for me is a great folder. I love the aspect ratio and build quality and do love the weight. The tall and narrow fad isn't for me. Plus being a pixel = pretty damn good camera. Probably won't get P-Fold 2 since they are going with the tall/narrow form factor.

Gosh you guys have been going for yrs ❤ well done

Great video!

Watching on my pixel phone. Love this thing and find myself using the front screen more than often

I wish apple would build exactly this google fold hardware only with iOS- I would love it! ❤️

Ha’,… My days of spending over $500 for a smartphone is over!

I still havent hear of anyone i know who has the fold that actually has an issue with the narrow screen. Myself included. And I have over 10 friends, colleagues, and clients who own the 3, 4, or 5. Its a one handed device when closed. Thats an advantage. Need more screen? Open it...

Great Jaime.... very accurate and coming from a user since day 1 I still love it. Having said that.... I still drive a Duo2 as well. Hate that Google is not going back to that aspect ratio. I appreciate all your work. Thanks

I dont care about the weight personally, reslly enjoying the thing.

I still just want a normal Pixel in the form factor of the Pixel Fold. Just rip the front screen off and give it to me Google.

the pixel fold is still the best foldable ever released

I'm just going to say it -- Without Wacom EMR? Not many of us "foldable" device enthusiasts will care about what "good" differences there are for the device. Give me Wacom EMR, and I'll be a customer.

It's too delicate and expensive to use for me. It also doesn't have the thing that separate Android from Apple, micro SD.

Whatever Google will do with the new Pixel Fold, they need to do something about that inner bezel, it's disgusting and make the phone look cheap. If it was to a cehap alternative to the competitors (a sub 1000 dollars Pixel Fold A), then whatever, but at this price range, no. Shame because everything else is great when it comes to looks, a truly beautiful desing when it's folded.

What makes it better is stock android, if you like the IOS eco the only thing better is stock android, Samsung is great but always in a fight when it comes to what apps to use on your device instead of working together

I like how you say your name

Who here recommends this fold still July 2024? I'm considering it since it's only (ONLY haha) $1,299 now. I really like the form factor and need a newer phone anyways since my camera on my P7 Pro is dying.

Pocket Now, brought to you by Android Police and XDA!

Tensor g2

Got one a couple of weeks ago for 1000 dollars and I am quite happy with it (coming from a pixel 7pro). Not really an upgrade but wanted to try the foldable life.

Nine of the Samsung foldable last for me durability wasn't there definitely getting pixel fold

I picked up the Fold only last month. A bit of a late adopter. My later build seems to fold open flatter and the crease doesn't seem as pronounced as it looks in a lot of review units. It might just be my unit. I honestly prefer the landscape inner screen.

I think the offerings from Honor, Huawei, Vivo and Oppo are far superior to not only the pixel but to the Samsung fold as well.

never buy a 1st gen product, thats it. that's the After the BUzz

Google is falling back on fold phones

If one plus was popular in North America, Google and Samsung would out to sleep forever!! Google is extremely Lazy! They need to improve on charging speeds, brightness, user experience etc

I loved your performance in the Star Wars prequels. Truly inspiring acting!

Didn't kill the mp3 player. It killed CHEAAP MP3 players for a time. Removing the headphone jack from phones brought those back while more expensive MP3 players never went anywhere and I'm not talking about the iPod. I'm talking about those that can drive planars. I have a phone with the headphone jack and though it works fine with my cheap iems it can barely drive my Audio Technica MSR7 or my closed back Sundaras.

If the pixel hade less bezel 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I don't like how the phone don't lay fully flat when it's folded open.

Can't recommend another Pixel phone until Tensor is made by TSMC, instead of based on a Samsung chip. The chips are so inferior. Literally worse in every way than what's coming from Qualcomm or even Mediatec. Hopefully Pixel 10 series will have chips from TSMC. Devices that have worse reception, get hotter, and have worse battery life, and are much less powerful, should not cost nearly as much as Pixels do.

Google's Tensor processor is objectively inferior to Snapdragon, and the performance isn't even close. Not sure why anyone would pick the Pixel Fold unless you really really prefer the form factor (even then it's a hard sell)

Yes I agree completely with you. I wanted the Pixel Fold so bad because I love the look and size but I didn't purchases it because it was missing some major hardware and software that I found better in the OnePlus Open. I'm completely done with Samsung because the Pixel and OnePlus has made having a foldable fun again were Samsung has just become so boring to me. Year after year making the same looking foldables with minor upgrades like Apple does it's customers. I'm sure the Pixel 2 will be a knockout and I just might switch from the OnePlus Open to the Pixel Fold 2. I just have to wait and see if Pixel learned anything from the mistakes it made with the first gen Pixel fold.

#PixelFold2 soon #TeamPixel

I can't trust Pixel phones. I went to Disneyland with the Pixel 8 Pro, and it jammed on me. The battery also died very quickly, so it's not reliable. Let alone the Pixel Fold...

I’m willing to bet Google has already killed the pixel fold they just haven’t told anyone yet

It's still annoying to see reviewers like this call the z fold screen a flaw like it's an objective fact. Just because you're a tech KZfaqr doesn't mean you get to talk for me and everyone else that bought the phone please just knock it off.

Oh A new logo for the channel Nice and refreshing for my upcoming 10th anniversary in this channel

*The Pixel Fold 2 at $1400 would be a game changer*

I love you Google💯🤝👍

these devices are pointless. they're only here because it can be done.

Well Samsung just said last year they won't be making the hinge on fold phones stronger and more easier to open and they wonder why store technicians have refused to fix Samsung hinge replacement anymore

garbage

i still don't know why American KZfaqrs specifically still push pixels as its a competitor to any other phone. software,hardware, performance they all suck on pixels

I wouldn’t buy that POS
