I read a couple comments about Foldable OS’s and I think we really need that video. A comparison between MagicOS, OxygenOS, HyperOS, OriginOS, and so on. A buyers guide between those who want the phones for multitasking or those who want them for consuming content/gaming Forgive me if I screwed up any of the OS names.
Thanks for your great efforts to highlight foldables from China. I just received my 1tb X fold 3 Pro. With regards to the use with wearables, I used an International version of Huawei GT4 watch to pair with the vivo and thus far, there is no issue.
I'm sad to hear about the smart watch connectivity. I might actually be tempted to get one on import if my Samsung watch would be able to work with it.
Nice to see some foldable content. It’s a slow time of year for foldables and I can’t deal with rumours anymore. I want to see the phones in somebody’s hands….even if it can’t be me.
As your opinion matters to us the most, what do you think of origin os and which is better hyper os , color os or the origin os, Thanks ahead for the answering 🙌🏻
Like the fingerprint on the side myself. The side of a phone never faces down. Please confirm only the 3 pro has wireless charge. Of note I hear that split screen orientation can now be horizontal or vertical. I can confirm this update has been done for the original Vivo x fold.
Thank you for this review. When you will, have the pro version, please, can you test under water as it is a ip68 phone, test the slow motion at 60 fps for both cameras. And if you can, test the % of color gamut in srgb or Adobe. Not the dcpi3 because it is for movies. Can you test the 5g too? Can we be delzvery in France to with you link? Thank you very much Have a nice day 👍🙏
Today, my firts day too...Vivo X Fold 3! Great device! Great store Wonda Mobile. Fast delivery to Spain! You said me to wait the Vivo X Fold 3 and I think It's a perfect choice. Thank you.
Loving all the fold 3 videos Mike. Of course it's the X Fold 1 videos that brought me here in the first place well over a year ago. Looking forward to the pro videos however I can't see how the pro can be worth 500 quid more than this for better cameras, 200mah more battery and a newer chip set which doesn't make much difference plus a heavier and thicker phone. Let's see your videos when it arrives and see if you agree or if the pro really is that good.
Another awesome video as always, Mike. It's grate to hear that notifications are working as intended, especially as Chinese ROMs can still display that delay.
i have the vivo x90pro plus (Chinese version) and i love it my only problem is the android auto missing and android share doesn't work( didn't know that it will not work) the rest is great the only reason to upgrade for me is ,i have dropped the phone and there is a crack now otherwise i would keep it for 4-5 years i hope there is a global version or maybe wait for the mix fold 4
my choice is difficult to make which one to buy vivo x fold 3 Or vivo xfold 3PRO the processor is more powerful but is this necessary, your opinions?😅😊
Is the smart watch issue a wear os issue or there is no smart watch at all that would work? I have a Huawei Watch gt 4 41 mm, the black one which is suppossed to be a chinese version even though it doesn't show in anything.... Would something like that work maybe?
Great review - just waiting for you to give a view on battery life before I pull the trigger. Always been worried that using the full screen for work would drain the battery and notifications so never gone the foldable route - this device may change that if you think the battery will stand up?
If possible can you do an emulation video or plugged the phone into the TV I want to see what kind of games this can emulate or if you can connect to the TV and use it like an android gaming console. Great video keep it up!
Hello :) Can you tell me at what date your Pro model will arrive? I ordered also the Pro. I live in germany and it says at Wondamobile that it is shipped out at the 26. this month....
The part of not being able to distinguish between SD8Gen2 and SD8Gen3 is not entirely correct in my opinion. I'm saying this because you specifically mentioned daily use case and gaming. While it might not be apparent in normal day to day, gaming using PS2 emulators for example, you can definitely tell the difference. I got a Red Magic 9 Pro with the SD8Gen3 mostly for this, and it's a very big difference when compared to the Gen2 in terms of performance. Also, I would say the new chip is still not optimized enough for the software, so it should get a bit better in time.
btw my friend found that vivo turns off the data after 5 mins of not being used and that is what delayed all his notifications if you need help finding that setting let me know ill ask him but he turned it off and he gets all his notifications now i wonder if all of them did that
How is the Vevo software currently the only Chinese phone I ever owned besides galaxies is the OnePlus 12 if the software is anything like the OnePlus 12 I wouldn't mind does Vevo do globals releases for their flagship
Thank you for a very informative intro video to xFold 3. Can't wait for the in depth one. I have a question: does the google voice activated assistant (Hey Google ) work?
@@deltaechomusicnh555most Chinese roms don't support horizontal splitting.. That's one major problem with them.. I have been following average dad for years now and that's what he usually says in his reviews
Good job. Would be interesting to see the interface of this Chinese ROM. How good is it comparing to Samsung's One UI. You probably know well enough benefits of One UI, gestures, split screen options etc. Also, battery of this Fold 3 should be important argument, since its better than in most foldable phones: current and some future ones, like Fold 6 which is gonna have about 4000-4500mAh battery again. So if you can measure how long battery lasts for ~rather active user with mixed usage, would be nice.
First of All I have to apologize for my low command of english Could you please Tell me if its possible to Set the language of device into german ? Thank you for recording this Video. Now I am really excited to Import it from China
@@Ronnet Yeah somehow some people I know are still using S7 & S8 to this day. Yeah batter definitely have doesn't last long after 5, they had to replace it with a new battery, and the phone still works.
A few weeks ago you appeared under excited about these phones. The reality seems very different. This might suggest they are even better. The main thinh for viewers is it demonstrates honesty.
Lol like anyone will keep a phone for 8 years...well they might keep it (i still have all my old phones) but they wont be actively using an 8 yr old phone that's crazy!
Can you split apps vertically? Like for exemple youtube and for exemple chrome or other apps? Thath wuold be more significant for me as an upgraded from last generation than anything else... Thank you for your content!
This will be the reason that many people don't buy the phone because they can't use it for Android radio and also because of 3 years of Android updates only
indeed, you will like the video tonight. i would suggest watching the Chinese unboxing if you are not bothered for chat or personality.... i guess you are used to having no personality tho haha

all looks good. will show in video tomorrow
@@AverageDadOfficial thank you. Ok
Hi, a "silly question" - does the outer/inner screen comes with screen protectors? If no, I gotta buy it first before the phone arrives.
both have protectors installed
@@AverageDadOfficialis the cover screen a glass screen protector or plastic film

Does the phone support wifi-calling?
no
Wondering if tap and pay with banking apps still work? 😅

Yes I agree
But can it run Crysis?
😂
It bothers me that the circular camera hump on the back is not centered.
i have the vivo x90pro plus (Chinese version)
and i love it
my only problem is the android auto missing and android share doesn't work( didn't know that it will not work)
the rest is great
the only reason to upgrade for me is ,i have dropped the phone and there is a crack now
otherwise i would keep it for 4-5 years
i hope there is a global version or maybe wait for the mix fold 4
Just bought it through your link. Can't wait to see it in the flesh so to speak. Hope you get the commission.
Great first look, looking forward to the rest. 👍🏼

Are you joking? You think it won't support such a basic feature? 😂

coming today
Hi there, it's possible to import a Google one backup on this phone?!
yes
the mic's are both great👍. 4k video on main camera was very good. selfie cam was good too, but the difference was visible.
Yes I agree
Should i get the vivo X Fold 3 or the Honor Magic V2??
Your choice

Is it worth to upgrade from mate x3 to this device
Yes for Google support
Do you think Vivo phones has a good longevity? Like if you purchase one, could they last at least 8 years?
Does any phone these days last 8 years? Build in battery would be near useless after 5 years of usage.

yes, that is always the case with Chinese ROM
3 updates means 4 years mate... how long do you keep a phone?
