Highly unlikely a possible/probable Pixel 2 will be any less expensive. Maybe on a somewhat longer term getting a Pixel Fold A-line for less money. Loving the foldables as Well, but 1800€ that's a straight 'no way José!'
should of called it a pixel book cuz this thing actually Looks Like a book it resembles a book quite badly tbh almost believed it was a book for a few seconds
Currently using the Pixel 6 Pro and love it. Ordered the Pixel Fold for the Black Friday deal of $400 off. Should be here next week and I can't wait to try it out.
How are you enjoying it? I've been looking for an upgrade for a while now. Currently debating between a Pixel 8 Pro, S22 Ultra, or the Pixel Fold (currently a used secondhand one for around $350 so I'm very keen on it)
I picked up the Pixel Fold today. I also have the 8 Pro. The Fold is an interesting device. The cover display is fairly comfortable to use. The haptics aren't as good as the 7a, 8 or 8 Pro. When unfolded, it's good but not great. It's not optimized for most apps. I'll see how the battery life is. I wouldn't recommend this for most people. The 6a, 7, 7 Pro, 7a, 8 and 8 Pro all provide a more familiar factor for most folks. If you're an enthusiast, or you're big into foldables, you'll probably like it. Watching videos on it is enjoyable.
I never had a problem with heat on mine here in the USA you get it 900.00 Att. and 800.00. You have to turn off adatptive charging in setting and you phone charges faster at 30 watts. If your running andoid 14 beta your getting up 2 days battery running cool all the time. Google tweeks in the software is awesome. The cameras software is best of all foldables hands down. I'm loving using compared to my Z fold 3.
I'm ready to pull the trigger. Can I ask as a U.K resident. Where would be the best place to buy one ? Amazon ? John Lewis maybe. Or unlocked @ Carphone warehouse.
@@daz7171it opens flat if you want it to. And in fairness to the Pixel Fold, all foldables have that risk of the folding screen being DOA. Sorry you've gotta deal with it
Always enjoy your take on tech... even if I can't share it with my friends and family, lol... I had the Pixel Fold... and for the processor (heat, lagging) issues for $1800... it was a no-go! If it was 1200 -1400, I would have been all in on it!
0:08 I'm living in the U.S and have been watching your channel for a few years now, gotta say this video started with a bang 😆 🤣. 👍🏼 Just subscribed 👍🏼.
Your reviews are always a pleasure to watch, even when not that curious about the specifc device shown on videos, super entertaining! Looking forward to the Z Fold 5 one: hoping you could also give a short test to how reliably reverse wireless charging behaves. 🙏
I know it will make it clunkier but why not slap a pop socket on the pixel fold? It would make it so manageable when unfolded. Easy use when using on the bed.
5 days and the inner screen delaminated... First, factory screen protector shows crease in middle, then bubbling.. then black screen spreading from center outward.
I really like the look of the fold, it's a really solid first shot at a foldable from Google and I much prefer the form factor they chose compared to Samsung's fold. I think the second iteration of this, provided that the next Tensor chipset boost performance whilst tackling that warm up issue, is going to be a great shout and this one seems like a solid competitor to Samsung now, despite it being first gen. The high price of the fold is unfortunate, but seems like par for the course whilst foldables are niche. I can't see that coming down until the phone is both multiple generations in, to recoup R&D costs, and foldables become more mainstream to make the components cheaper at scale. I'd really love flagship quality cameras on foldables, I don't think there's a good reason not to, but I do dread what it'd do to the already inflated pricing.
Thx for the review. I'm lookinf for a foldable phone BUT, in order for me to buy one they need to adress: 1- form factor - not that squarrish form and better obtimisation. 2- battery life- at least 6 ours screen on time unfolded. 3- price- less than 1000
Might get one of these as my next phone, coming from the zf4. Iv had 3 galaxy fold phones and had hinge issues with all 3. I love foldables but im over samsungs hinge issue.
Be interesting to find out the warranty exclusions? As in the bezel, screen etc, so till that’s in public domain il stick to my fold 4.. also the camera bump reminds me of the hideous Microsoft surface phone
Wait are they really giving out Pixel watches with the Fold? Then maybe not all is lost and you can use the watch to remotely control the media. It is a good start for Pixel I can't wait for the future when we will have mid range Foldables.
@TechSpurt Absolutely brilliant video to watch as I just wanted to let you know that I’m a new subscriber to your TH-cam channel right now because I’ve just subscribed to your TH-cam channel right now after being sacked from work.👍🙂
Very good video, I'm impatient for the second generation (next year, obviously) but not so much because I didn't like something in itself, but because this first generation except Germany *we haven't seen it in continental Europe* and that seems to me a mistake on Google's part. I imagine that they will improve some details that many youtubers criticize and that I'm sure they also saw necessary.
I think its a good foldable, but they really dropped the ball not putting a better/overclocked processor in the thing. It has the same processor as the pixel 7a which is less that 1/4 the price lol
Great review! When you are smoothly zooming from 1x into the zoom lens, does the display "jump" when it switches between the lenses? I experience that on my Pixel 6 Pro and am hoping that they solve that before I buy my next one.
Great phone from Google with additional features such as Wireless Charging for one - But why isn't the Hold for Me feature Not available in the UK??. I see the Hold for Me feature is only available in Australia, Canada and US, Why??
After watching this video,I felt huge respect to mqbhd for being so honest about the Google processors without any hesitation or promotional point of view.
But don't treat those features as Samsung exclusives, because if you se even newer tablets like the large Lenovo P12 you'll notice multitasking is quite similiar, so most OneUI features either are already part of current Android versions or will be ingegrated into it. Rather, wouldn't it be better making a purchase decision for the device based on its hardware, stuff that you can't change, improve or do anything about unless buying a new one?
Can't afford it but it's a great phone. It's not dust resistant just a bit water resistant too but it turns into a tablet. For the battery to last, can you turn on regular battery saver mode on? I have done that on my Pixel 6 and can still give it voice commands. Great review and I love your humor! I like how you made fun of Apple. I sometimes jokingly call them Crapple even though I think they're ok phones. There's nothing wrong with a bit of light teasing.
fter watching your videos I had bought Google Pixel 6a last December. No doubt, camera is very good. But after 6 months of use, its screen dislodged from its base , without any physical impact . Happened on its own. I gave it for warranty repair/exchange, but its very poor in India. For more more than two weeks I did not receive any communication from them about status of my phone , and when I contacted them. they gave dodgy statements and even till today I don't have my phone back. If you live in India, then avoid buying pixel , as after sales service is as important as a features of phone. Also, its product quality is average, thats why it was given for warranty repair in first place. Its software quality is good, but Hardware and After Sales service support in India is very poor.
Reservation Dogs!!! yeah! I've never had the Jank you are talking about. well, the sometimes locked and sometimes not when you close but I've never had it freeze. I do wish they would let you save pairs. but I am overall VERY happy with the my Fold. I Love it!! I installed beta OS 14 and the battery is much better.
I'm getting it for £1000. Is it worth buying? It's been used for a month or so, seller just doesn't like it. I'm guessing it's the US version as it's not released in the UK yet. Let me know your thoughts guys.
Ain't gonna buy a Pixel until they offer proper manual modes in their camera app. 1700 isn't really that much more expensive than the fruity logos max mobiles.
Thanks mate. I will wait for Pixel Fold 2.
I absolutely love Google take on foldable, but price tag and un-developed app for it are huge let down.
Knowing Google they'll change the Pixel name, switch to a TSMC chip, and start treating 1st gen Pixel Fold customers like 🐈💩
Highly unlikely a possible/probable Pixel 2 will be any less expensive. Maybe on a somewhat longer term getting a Pixel Fold A-line for less money. Loving the foldables as Well, but 1800€ that's a straight 'no way José!'

First time here....I've been laughing for the first 5 minutes...thank you
That phone cost more than my first two cars combined 🤣
I was more impressed with the fact that trading in your old phone gives you still next to no money
"That's when I whip it open and get it all big and stuff"
This is why Mum says we're not supposed to call you uncle anymore-

5 days and the inner screen delaminated... First, factory screen protector shows crease in middle, then bubbling.. then black screen spreading from center outward.
Not many people mentioning the inner screen, in terms of how it feels and looks? Is it more of a plasticky feel? How do fingerprints looks? Etc
No mate the feeling of inner screen is like glass i was shocked my local Vodafone shop let me hold one the build quality is fantastic feels premium
Any issues with the heat? Any issues with the battery?
I've had mine 3 weeks no heat problems playing games and videos. I was getting 5 to 6 the first week now 7 hours.

@@lamarashtony2580 Yes I'm running Android 14 beta it changes a lot on the phone it's very smooth and fast almost 2 days battery life.
Trying to decide between the Z Fold 5 and the Pixel Fold, but think I have decided on the Pixel, just got to wait longer
Z fold 4 is even far better than pixel,optimize and multitasking
@@tonyyayo5548Z Fold outer display is too small and it’s not practical for daily use.
Any Pixel Fold user will tell you that’s why they chose it.
The Pixel Fold has been out for about a month. It WILL be optimized soon enough during its lifespan.

I think its a good foldable, but they really dropped the ball not putting a better/overclocked processor in the thing. It has the same processor as the pixel 7a which is less that 1/4 the price lol
They should have waited till October and released it with an overclocked version of the G3.
They couldn't. Thermals are already shit. Anything stronger would have wrecked battery life
I was going to get this but i think i will wait for the OnePlue Open instead
Looks like a "developer preview" foldable. We should very well wait for the next attempt
Enjoying this review on my Pold

Thanks you cheeky chappy, great vid.
5:30 very clear. The sound is! 😄😄😄
I cannot stress enough how much better solution is a punch hole in the left corner!
Definitely going with the Z Fold 5 over the Pixel Fold for the better One UI for foldables
