Always like your no nonsense reviews. I do wish the Chinese rom/china only released phones were easier to get over here and elsewhere in the west as a z fold 3 owner, Samsung is getting away with way too much because of the lack of readily available competition.
i have the pro version and its really amazing, everything its just wow for the price, the screen, the weight, the smoothness, the battery, vivo now its the best foldable someone can buy right now
Just got my Vivo X Fold 3 - noticed Origin OS has so much customisations in settings etc. Might need a video on the best settings you use and a How-to in settings.
I selected X3 because it was 1100 usd, Pro version is about 400 usd more. I think X3 is best option for this price up today, and I am not sure that X3 Pro worth 400 usd more
So you rate the Global ROM V2 running the 8 Gen 2 chipset 2/5 for software because of its 2024 release even though it supports full Google - and this Chinese ROM phone gets 3/5, and also has last year's chipset?
not sure you understand what software means lol!! you are taking about hardware when you talk chipset! The Origin OS skin and the features and user interface are better than the Magic OS skin and features... also known as software haha! do better man!
I'm well aware of the definition of software, no need for you to be so condescending! (We can compare our degrees to see who's better qualified if you like). But your Magic V2 Software section talks about "Internals and software" when you justify your pathetic score of 2/5. So if there is confusion in review categories, it's all yours. And your opinions on the "skin" seem to be skin deep, as you're misjudging the Global V2's capabilities (full Google support, full wired and wireless desktop mode, multi profiles and lots of security features) for some very subjective feeling about the widgets and slight differences in theming. Crazy!
@@ecocadia@ecocadia bruh you literally mentioned the chipset you deserve to get clowned on. Magic os is completely awful, and the Pro 3 has literally 99% of GMS except for android auto. Get your dumpster ass degree out of here
I can put 2 apps split plus 2 floating on my x fold (1). Open an app and make it small window mode and do it 2 times closing each of them and they go to the side of the screen. Then open your next 2 apps and split them. Next go to the side apps opening them and there they are, all 4 apps on the screen.
thanks for the discussion... question, the 12/256 version is now around 950 euros. I'm fine with the 256 GB of hard disk, no problem, are the 12 GB of RAM efficient? Thanks
Great review..I seriously looking to get this for one.. any issues with the screen? I’ve had 2 galaxy fold 3 and had the black bar of death on both units
Can I order a Vivo X Fold 3 PRO from you? Do you install a number of apps from the Play Store and remove the Chinese bloatware before shipping the device to me in The Netherlands? Could you let me know what the price is?
Good morning, I'm wondering if Google services work, if the banking apps and OTA updates work with the Chinese firmware... thank you for your patience and congratulations for the review
Hi, I am looking at getting a fold phone but not sure what to get. I had a stroke 9 months ago and my vision has still not fully returned and have trouble seeing small print. I have a Samsung s21 and can make everything bigger but still have trouble. Am on a disability pension so money is an issue a bit. Will a fold phone make reading the screen better ? Which one has more functions for people with vision issues ? Oh and I left Australia to more to Thailand so not sure if it changes what phone I should get.
No matter if phone is best in world this phone have to big camera in the back, kill of the phone like One plus open Camera in the back kills the phone Who need a big phone camera In the back. Like that big😅😅
The folding phones without dust tightness This is a recipe for disaster It happened to me in Fold 4, the screen no longer folded properly and the inner sticker fell off dust resistance It's a must useless phone without. useless reviewer
useless reviewer?? wait, i tell you to be careful with a folding phone and that no fold phone has dust proof, yet i am useless? is this a language barrier or are toy being rude? DM me on Instagram and we can meet in person to deal with it
can i know why dust resistance is a must in foldable phone? it is dust will cause the inner hinge damage? correct me if i am wrong. Vivo x fold 3 pro have the dust proof and water proof IPX8. Should i get pro version better because have dust proof?

This phone vivo x fold 3 non pro or the xiaomi mix fold 4?
I can put 2 apps split plus 2 floating on my x fold (1). Open an app and make it small window mode and do it 2 times closing each of them and they go to the side of the screen. Then open your next 2 apps and split them. Next go to the side apps opening them and there they are, all 4 apps on the screen.
I just returned my honor magic v2 because the software is so buggy… Just couldn’t take it anymore… Is this software much better?

So Google Pay works?
I have the vivo x fold 2 and GPay works.
My Huawei watch GT3 connects fine👍😁👌
8 gen 2 is still a better chip because it doesnt have plagued heat issues of the gen 3
This phone is getting an international release so Android Auto and smartwatch connectivity will work.
