I went from the LGV60 ThinQ Dual Screen to my first foldable and chose the OnePlus Open. That Open Canvas can have up to 5 apps open (3 + a floating window and either floating KZfaq or Google maps). Plus I'm a fan of pro modes so the Hasselblad camera system gives me pictures that blow my iPhone friends away...

@BEWellTech 5 ай бұрын

Yes, the OnePlus Open is a great device. Especially for the more pro type user. Enjoy!

Great review. The music kept making me feel like this was some sort of 90's r&b love making session. Not a negative, I just kept thinking the phone was gonna get sexier as the review moved on. I guess it kind of did. Solid work.

Great video! Just subscribed! I’m thinking about buying one.. I’m really into AI but the pixel fold is not going to get magic compose and circle to search, right? I’m really into AI and what to know if I have to wait

@BEWellTech 5 ай бұрын

Thanks, appreciate the sub! For now Google has made those features exclusive to the Pixel 8 series. They always want to give consumers an incentive to buy their new phones. But as we've seen in the past that doesn't mean all the previous devices won't get any of those features later on. There just is no way for us to know for certain right now. We have to wait and see. If you want to make sure for certain you get those features then either you pick up one of the Pixel 8 devices, or you wait for the Pixel Fold 2.

@BEWellTech 3 ай бұрын

Google just pushed out Circle to Search to the Pixel Fold in the April Security Update, so if you're still looking into one now is the time. Especially with it $500 off until April 6th.

According to the latest data, the new fold 2 is delayed until October to launch it with the G4. I think it's a good idea to wait if you have a generation 7 pixel. It's what I'm doing. Especially since updates as the cars live are always better than launches. The same thing happens on mobile phones. Plus, you'll get the latest Android update policy in your pocket. 7 years of system and security updates. If you tell me it costs €600 or $. I would say buy it, but since it has a rate of $1800 or €1899 in Europe... It is not an advisable purchase. Yes at launch, but not now.

@BEWellTech 5 ай бұрын

Currently here in the US, there are some significant discounts offered. The Google store has it $400 off at $1399, plus they're offering large trade-in values for older Pixels. You can get $380 for an old Pixel 6 Pro. At that price and with current trade-in values that they're offering, it's a pretty nice deal. Especially for someone who may prefer the current Pixel Fold's form factor to the design changes that are rumored to come on the Pixel Fold 2 in October. But also you can't fault anyone that would prefer the latest and greatest and wants to wait for the Pixel Fold 2. That makes sense too, it's your hard earned money so you buy what you feel is best for you.

@user-vq3bl8xx3i Ай бұрын

Nice looking phone ive seen other videos where people say it feels really premium in the hand. But if you was to ask me is it worth buying i would say no for a couple of reasons 1. Price is too expensive 2. No stylus support for a phone that costs £1800 it should have this feature 3.apps dont open full screen whats the point of having a folding phone if apps dont open full screen it kinda defeats the purpose of having a folding phone but other than that its a good looking phone.

@BEWellTech Ай бұрын

Yep, I agree as I said in the video not worth it if you have to pay full price. But if you find a good deal on it, then it is a great device. It's still the device I prefer as my daily driver. Also, regarding apps in full screen on the inner display that was addressed with one of the Pixel drop updates. I posted a short a while back on how you can force an app to fullscreen on the inner display kzfaq.infoORMZeMfgvQQ?si=9TXCE_2B4mSjPKxS. Thanks for watching.

After my usage with this phone for about 5 months I had it up to here with the shortcomings for a $2,000 almost device. It was cool to see what Google had to offer but when it comes to folds I'm just going to stick with Samsung or try the OnePlus open.

@BEWellTech 4 ай бұрын

I still enjoy the device. But it's definitely not perfect, and I don't blame anyone for feeling a certain way after Google seems to have decided to hold back certain features.

if the inner screen breaks. you will be facing a 900$ repair bill. nearly double the price of the samsung or one plus foldable repair

@BEWellTech 4 ай бұрын

Unfortunately, if you buy a foldable you can't really get around an expensive repair. Thankfully they're more durable than the earlier generations of foldable. Fun fact, my wife accidentally left her Pixel Fold in a pile of clothes when doing laundry. The phone went through a full wash cycle, and I was sure that the device was going to be done. But to our surprise the device is working perfectly.

Camera is great for a foldable BUT P8pro is really another level (I own both)

@BEWellTech 5 ай бұрын

Oh yes, there's no doubt the 8 Pro has the superior camera. Bigger sensors, better camera hardware all around. You can't fit those same sensors on a thin foldable.

yes, logically. Focus on foldables is elsewhere, here's one of the best cameras (if not the first) on this kind of products
