They are more convienent for sure. Love the battery life especially when compared to beats earbuds.

@@guillermolagos2626 if you can wait, wait for the new one. We're so close and it's been confirmed

@@GuruPrashanth7970 My phone's that have fingerprint scanners on the screen are the phones that I just use face ID for.

@@kurt120032002 it's very annoying, sometimes I like it because it means that the folding phones get the finger scanner on the power button which is considered mid-range Tech. Though everything else is annoying about it. One of the reasons these phones don't have mainstream appeal yet. You have to make a decision if you want the best phone ever or if you want something really cool and new that no one else is going to have. It's pretty much just an enthusiast phone at this point. Cameras aren't as good but they are pretty close and a lot better than every other actual mid-range phone I've gotten my hands on.

@@kurt120032002 I'll be making more videos soon, I've been having an issue with audio quality and I'm in the process of building a PC right now. It's almost built. Once it's together, I'll make a video on the PC and then get back into phones like the fold 6

@@TayWTech my interest is that when open the phone is the perfect size to control my Volumio music steamer, the classic finger print and a more manageable size when closed. The camera look really cheap and out of place, and photo quality isn't a 2000 € phone. Just put the same god damn module in the phone and fill rest of the thickness with battery, or put the stylus inside. At the 6th generation not having top tier camera is really not an excuse anymore.

@@TayWTech not sure what do you mean not far behind. Literally 5 min ago I went and did a test with main 1x camera compared with my 7yo Note 8, and Note 8 took better pictures. Same conditions, both on auto... how is this acceptable samsung. I am looking to upgrade my Note8, not to downgrade.

@@plmpcharisma9686 I feel like if they would have waited to release it at the same time as the the pixel 8 it would have been a lot stronger as a first gen device but still not perfect

This has got to be one of the worst reviews I’ve ever seen! I couldn’t watch more than 2 mins

@@5ohh3 not my best. I wanted to start off with a lot of the negatives about the phone because given the price there are a lot of things that should be better but I didn't do a good job into transitioning into the positives and what I actually experience in day to day use. Taking a break right now to build a PC so I can at least come back with better quality videos. Thank you for the feedback

Ok thank you. I've been trying to be consistent with the mic placement but it sounds like I need to work on it more in Post. I rewatch the video on my phone before posting but I think I may need to change that.

I was mistaken. You can multitask on Pixel 8a. I recently posted a short showing how to do it. You can't multitask with every app though.

I can't wait for the next gen to come out either! I'm hoping since the new one has a redesign that it's fixing a lot of the smaller issues with this phone. I was really impressed with this phone but there are definitely times where I'm reminded that it's a first generation device

Bless you Floppa

Bless you @KianFloppa

Thank you KianFloppa

Hi how are ya

💯 can't think of a cooler phone under $1K

Yuppers! The pixel fold was the last phone to get photo sphere

Yeah just make sure it's from a good buyer. It's the perfect time to get the old one for cheap with the intention of trading it in for the new.

I would love to see a tablet like display from Motorola. I think I'm also going to keep an eye out for the Z Flip 6.

@@TayWTech Motorola currently ships as many, if not more, phones than Google in US. They could do it. The Z Flip is more popular than the Z Fold though. So not a lot of incentive because the RAZR will likely still be their most popular folding phone.

That's probably why Google didn't make a flip phone 😂. All the razr needs is a slight camera bar and people would think it's a pixel

@@TayWTech lol fr

Of course not, but it feels like these companies always give us less and less inside the box. It's hard not to notice when they put less effort in the box itself too.

​@TayWTech how do you think they make the tech with the same great hardware at a cheaper price

Then it's clear what I must do

I can't wait till it comes out

@@TayWTech just a few months. im hyped even tho im not buying it!

Not the smartest way to buy phones for sure

The 8 is a great phone. I don't like it's design as much but it's kind of hard to argue with the tougher materials and higher water resistance rating

I've been wanting to get a nothing phone. Isn't the whole idea behind nothing to make a great value phone with semi replaceable parts?

@@TayWTech not replaceable parts but yeah, they are going for that flagship killer thing that oneplus used to be.

For last year's Flagship that's a great price. I'm keeping an eye out for deals this fall. Especially trade in deals. I have a Pixel 8 Pro that I don't use (aside from its camera). I plan on trading it in for something from another manufacturer so I can branch out more

@@TayWTech Great 👍

Z Fold 4 ONLY if there is some kind of extended warranty or protection or guarantee that you will get at least a year or so out of it. Older folds are more prone to problems. If you don't have a solid backup phone in the event that the fold breaks, then get the pixel 8A

I agree, companies can't keep talking about sustainability, but then expect us to buy a new piece of plastic, aluminum and glass every year at a higher price. Dream phones would have a metal back casing that you could remove to swap out the battery. Every once in awhile I see someone with an S8 active in mint condition and I always bet the reason they were discontinued is because they last so long

I feel the same way. Google phones are a great stepping stone for Android in general. Whether it's going to be your next Android phone or the Android phone that you're leaving, it's usually a good experience, but not a heavy commitment

​@@TayWTech You said in the video Apple has the best ecosystem. You should take into account that Samsung also makes TVs and Appliances - along with other Smart Home products. That is a crazy amount of interconnectivity in the household; all from one manufacturer. Very underrated.

Hope you like Gemini, it's been a lot of fun

Yeah these corners are WAY rounder than on the 8 and 8 Pro. I like it because it makes the Phone easier to hold in one hand. Like right now I'm holding it one handed with a corner snug in my palm. It doesn't feel like I have the corner of a rectangle digging into my hand, its as soft as the side of the phone. I am used to having phones with rounder edges (pixel fold) so for me this design looks normal. I heard the 6a was a really solid phone and had a lot of improvements for the prior pixels. Any reason in particular that you want to upgrade Any particular reason you want to upgrade?

@@TayWTech No particular reason. I've always changed phones every 2 years, or so. I've never (apart from the iPhone 6s) gone for a "flagship" phone and there are some really good offers on the 8a (and the 8, or at least there were) I really like t he 6a, it's been, for me, the best phone I've ever had, so I'm happy to hang on to it and I'm totally sold on the whole Google Ecosystem. I was thinking of waiting for the 9a. But, looking at the leaks, the aesthetics of that Camera Island don't appeal! 😉😉

What that in the recent IO? I didn't know they said that but wouldn't be surprised. The fold is my first pixel fold and all of the pixel features are newer to me because I'm used to Samsung and iPhone but so far I really enjoyed them. This may not be something everyone's looking for, but I feel like it feels a little more straightforward and I love how everything is connected through Gmail. But considering the security history with Gmail, I could see why you wouldn't want to get one.

Right back atcha Big Dawg 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

Thank you! No I'm not Indian but my girlfriend is. She gave this to me a few months after we started dating and I haven't taken it off since.

Amazing…I guess she really likes you because that is an ornament worn with the belief to protect a person from jealousy or ill-wishes of other people. Your girlfriend probably doesn’t want anybody else to steal you away hahaha

Thank you!
