I just switched from apple, 10+ year apple user and I got the Z Fold 5 last week and I'm totally in love! It's a breath of fresh air. Apple hasn't done anything interesting or innovative and this phone is everything my iPhone wasn't, amazing, fun and something I can see myself not getting bored with
Was easy to adapt to open the phone anytime you need to do something... I mean, how often do you use the "tablet screen"? I am considering to get this one of S23 ultra + ipad.
@@andonivrI was long-time ape user. 15 pro max was not a good upgrade from my 14 pro max. So fold 5 has been amazing. I use the inner display all the time. I don't think I can go back to regular phone
@@jtaran87 I bought the fold 5 and I am more than happy , is a good phone, a bit weird at the beginning but really good!
Same here the only disappointment for me coming from iphone is the picture quality when sending in messages
@dop3joel88 yea my fiance has a iPhone and when we send each videos they suck even though on our phones they look amazing 😭
I upgraded from the Note10+ to the Fold 5. Loving it! 😆
Good choice!
Im also have note 10 plus, can't decide to buy the fold 5 or it dosn't worth the price 🤔
Until you actually switch to the fold 5 you will never understand how great this phone is. If you are a camera snob then go for the Ultra. This phone gives you a experience you'll never experience until you use it. You'd be surprised how much you actually use the big screen. If you like watching movies, playing games, youtubing, or multi-tasking, then this is definitely the phone for you. It's not perfect, but this is the best folding phone on the market hands down.
I appreciate your honesty, no one can fault you for your opinion. I currently have an S22 ultra and when I am ready to upgrade in a couple years or so, I think foldables might be an option. It seems they are close to being refined enough and hopefully the prices will come down a bit.
This is kinda how I feel as well
I upgraded from s22 ultra. I can tell you what I miss on 22 and what I love about the fold 5. The s22 ultra has better cameras especially for selfies. Battery life seem better on the 22 until the update we got 2 weeks ago on fold. I love storing the s pen inside of phone but I also don't use it daily so it's ok. I love opening my fold, when it comes to productivity fold dominates. S22 ultra screen is way better than the front screen on fold. I also miss taking my s22 ultra to beach, I don't dare take the fold lol. I also ride a motorcycle and my s22 ultra used to mount on a quadlock. Fold doesn't support quadlock and I wouldn't mount it anyways since it's not completely dust proof. I also expected the fold to be a lot more fragile and attract more dust but that's not the case. I dropped my fold once already and it holds. Anyways I do miss my s22 ultra but I'm also enjoying the fold life. Upgrade when you ready bro.
it'll take 4-5 generations before I switch to fold. Dust protection, s-pen silo, s-pen support for both screen, reduced crease, serious telephoto unit (doesn't have to be periscope, just dump that trash 10 mp cam), quicker charging, bigger battery, better unlock method (either in-display fingerprint sensor or iPhone-like face ID). And, of course, a wider outer screen.
Prices won’t come down.. they have been going up.
Since the economy shows that everything gets more expensive means the production costs are going up as well.
Their prices just go up.
Same is for apple..
@@SteelRod13use the main camera to do selfies bro
I have the Z Fold 5. Its my first tablet style foldable and its been cool. My bezel symmetry seems to be fine so Im inclined to think that your model might have an imperfection (or I got lucky lol). My unexpected most fun use case has been reading ebooks and fanfiction on here. Im not an ebook person at all but ever since I tried Libby and the Myne app on here....Im hooked. Ive read so many stories on this device! I also love reading manga so the Tachiyomi app has been getting a lot of use as well. Who knew that the Z Fold 5 would elev a te my reading experience so much. It makes me excited to try out a Pixel Fold as well.
Does tachiyomi have sailor moon manga on it? If so I might have to look into it!
@@ShannonMorseim pretty sure you can read any manga in it, since you can pull sources from all the well known manga sites
Thank you for activating my ocd. My inner screen protector also has a bigger gap on the left when compared to the right.
My first Z Fold 4 is huge upgrade to me and better than the previous smartphone I had. Probably will upgrade in couple of years to Z Fold 6 or 7. Great video ❤❤❤
I believe this phone would be a great fit for me because I take my tablet to work and use it during lunchtime. This phone would allow me to have all the features I need in one device.
Great video. I went with the Pixel Fold. I don’t like the way Samsung cameras handle skin tones, and I didn’t care for that narrow outer display. The Pixel Fold isn’t perfect, but the majority of my gripes can be fixed through software.
I know RealTone wasn't a feature targeted at me but whenever I hang out with my (fairly diverse) group of friends, it really REALLY shines when we take selfies. I totally with you on that! 💗
I would love to see what Samsung would do with dimensions closer to the Pixel Fold. I envy the phone experience the Pixel Fold can offer. As it stands, I prefer the Galaxy Z Fold over the Pixel Fold. Samsung simply allows you to do more with the phone you buy, and with any screen space you give it to work with.
Pixel's UI is still rudimentary and reminiscent of iOS 9 on the iPad. You can run one app, or you can run two. One UI will let you run 3 apps and have floating apps. Do you need all that? Definitely not. It is there if you need it. You can even save app combos and launch them at will. You can then plug the phone in to/or wireless connect to a display and use DeX. It now gives you all the tiling options to run what you want in a desktop like environment.
Not a fan of DeX? That is fine, use all the same features in Windows using Link to Windows, which unifies your Windows and OneUI environments. So many of these features are missing or heavily degraded on Pixel.
I was waiting for this one! Thank you for your coverage and insights.
Glad it was helpful!
Samsung just needs to give us the Galaxy Note Fold Ultra and call it day
After having ultrasonic fingerprint reader in the screen on my LG G8X I hated it. My LG G6 had the reader on the back and it was so much faster and responsive vs the screen. Im a fan of the button reader
Samsung is testing under display camera very well. When they get it right, we will see this technology on S series.... I love their mindset..
Samsung swings and if they miss they just swing again, but with a bigger, better bat
I recently upgraded my Fold 3 to a Fold 5 and have noted some marked improvement in photo quality. A little bit of improvement in battery life. I agree, Fold 4 users shouldn't upgrade to the 5. It may just be me, but it feels like the cover display feels ever so slightly wider compared to the Fold 3. Thanks for the great video review.
It's not just you, it is wider. That was one of the upgrades from the 3 to the 4.
I had iphone 5, all up until the 14 pro max. In between I owned Samsung sometimes and it's weird how Apple is not trying to make any improvements. My s23 ultra is literally a BEAST of a phone, my z fold 5 however replaced everything for me. I'm going all in with the Samsung ecosystem but I am going to get the apple laptop. Unless Microsoft or Samsung do something better, soon will buy a gaming pc
Love my Z FOLD!!!
Shannon always bringing the noise!!!! Amazing video as always!
Color options shouldn't been a determining factor as most people will put a case on it unless you get a clear case. The Pixel Fold offers less color choices.
My favorite cases have some form of transparency, and if they don't match, then that matters to me. Sorry not sorry for wanting aesthetically pleasing colors for my phones 🤷🏻♀️
I recently picked one up to try. I will say the noveilty is cool, bht this ain't it. For the basic consuemr needs I use none of the apps I use are supported. The phone stutters when trying to do a basic task and idk if anyone else has this but when I close the cover screen it freezes and only fix is to open the phone back up and close the app. The cameras are wrose than a mid range smart phone. The battery life has been good and the inside screen size is just awkward. Games look overly zoomed in and the outside display is a major major no. The narrow front is so uncomfortable and so inconvenient. Then when you open the display to fix that, depending on the app it doesn't get any better. This is only day two of using it, but will probably end up returning it. For $1445 since I bought a used one, having a hard time understanding the purpose and problem this phone was created for to fix. I can confirm this phone is over rated and very hyped up by tech channels and I understand why when I worked wireless so many people wanted to return this thing. I am going to give it another week, but not impresssed. That and it just so bulky when closed.
Thank you, now I can't unsee it
Yeah I noticed the bezel thing also. I thought my unit might have a problem. I am glad and relived now. 😅
I like the one reviewer I watch who said if you have the fold 3 you do not really need to upgrade to the 5. For me it is going to need to have a bigger outside screen and I need to be able to use the pen on that outside screen as well. The pen needs to slide into the phone just like my note 20 ultra so it also needs to come with the pen. And they really need to put the SD card back in there as well. Last but not least since the screens are just not going to last that long the price needs to be under $1000 for a 512g model. Think I would like to have a fold phone but I just do not see that happening in my life time unless Samsung wants to send me one for free
Buy the Honor magic v2 or the mix fold 3😂🎉😂
Great video again Shannon! Keep up the good work...I am very interested in the coming Pixel 8 Pro....
I had the Note 10+ Aura Blue and i was waiting another blue color but S22 Ultra and S23 Ultra Blue color does not come to my country. Thats why i got excited with the Icy Blue Version of this phone.
Oh cool! Glad you like it
I have zero interest in this phone but I'm impressed with the progress on the hinge. Maybe there's one in my future afterall.
I'm hoping to upgrade this week from my Fold 3 to the Fold 5. I would wait for the Fold 6 but yea ... instant gratification says piss off to waiting.
I'm using the crap out the main screen typing is easy for me on anything and with this keyboard and slim design I'm tying and watching your video with one hand on main screen but they are going to make it a bigger screen on fold 6
No reason to jump yet to foldables. Since s9ultra tab and s23ultra can cover my needs by far and being sure that battery and durability is always there. Probably, fold6 or 7 could be the time , we will see how they evolve. I feel they are almost reaching the roof.
you can hear a lot of digital noise reduction outside... still better than no noise reduction but there's room for improvement.
It may be great hardware, but I really hate all the add Samsung items. I prefer the Android experience on the Pixel. I wish Samsung would allow a bare Android experience on their devices.
Same! Vanilla android is always my fav
The feature I want to see is designating one screen for phone call/texts and have the other screen just for your use of the mobile computer.
Sooo the flip 5 😂. You can install tons of apps on the flips cover screen but it's predominantly used for non-keyboard apps
The foldables are really cool, but the prices are just too high for my liking at the moment.
Normally, I'll buy used bc I'll get really good discounts, but with this one bc it's just the 4 with a different hinge (and One UI 6) I figure why not? I was able to haggle a price to nearly half (which is pretty good considering this phone is only a month old and for 512gb). If you're still considering, can get find Fold4 for the price it should be at around 800 and I feel like it's a good investment
I thnk that they're almost getting to the point that might be worth a try. Still a hard choice if i cannot take it to the beach :(
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed your review. Blessings on your day!
Thank you! You too!
Loving mine
I guess I see that difference in bezels now. Not as pronounced on mine as on yours it looks like. I'll get over it.
My fold 5 doesn't perform while gaming. Randomly flashes and screen turns black
Fanboys always come after you when you disagree with them. That's what makes them fanboys. I watch you for your honest opinions. Keep up the great work!
The future is AI assistants. Not the crude things like Siri, Bixby, Cortana, but actual AI assistants that understand your questions and give you good, detailed answers. So that skinny front screen will be used for displaying answers from your vocal questions to your AI assistant.
That'll be a future I would enjoy. Right now, the voice assistants arent at a point where that would be useful
The pixel fold crease is like a deep gorge. The phone not opening fully flat just makes that worse.I have used many Samsung folds from fold 2 to fold 4 and I found the pixel to be worse inner screen. The outer screen and the overall feel of Pixel fold is great though probably the only follding phone with the best aspect ratio
It has to be narrow because that way it fits your front pocket when wearing pants. If it would be thicker, you wouldn't be able to sit with the phone in your pocket
Is the fold your daily driver? I always wonder what people who review all these phones use as their daily.
This is first review video of yours have seen and it was great 😮. If the fold 5 had atleast s23 plus camera
Thank you for watching!
Can you post the video separately please? Converting it to 24 FPS makes it impossible to see how stable it is.
Im curious with the inner screen, does it able to endure some nail scratch? Sometimes when i play games, i can get rough with the sliding on the screen
Nice video Shannon 😊
Thank you! 😁
I am happy to go for Samsung S23 ultra 512GB as my secondary phone instead of Samsung ZF 5
In Australia it has icy blue or cream or black I had to go with the black but wanted blue but mine came with a galaxy watch 6 for $0 if I stay on my plan for 36 months but I can pay $99 & switch between any device anytime I like
I still haven't seen anyone using this phone. And I still say for the price buy a laptop
Not impressed with the camera quality.
Nope, not going to a foldable phone. I need my phones to have as few failure points as possible. Not to mention, I don't think I need the extra screen space.
Once you watch all the teardowns of Fold is he fold 5 is a he only one to buy, it has more endurance engineering than all the all the rest by a distance.
It's built very well! I also praised it's new, updated packaging in this video
There is no problem with the bezel symmetry on mine. I guess its one of those manufacturing variants within acceptable threshold and hence passed the QC control. 😂
No thanks I hate it 😂
Ur right 👍🏾 I agree
My first fold was the fold 3 and I chose that because I wanted S Pen functionality. I like the innovation of it all and until they bring the S series cameras and make the outer display wider and less candy bar like I’m not updating. I also have an S22 Ultra and an iPhone 14 Pro and swap between depending on work needs and camera use scenarios. I find myself using the fold less and less these days but would one hundred percent go back to a single device if they brought the camera and screen size up. I think as more competition appears they’ll follow suite.
Yeah all those folds but I’m still waiting for a Sidekick refresh
Imagine if the answer to overtaking apple is a sidekick and aol aim with video conferencing refresh/update
Fold5 users will have massive regret knowing that they could have waited for the superior upcoming OnePlus/ oppo...
The Fold5 has an abysmal face unlock, poor battery charging, lack of IR blaster, glaring outdated cameras, and the naggingly narrow front screen, will be a continual burdonous eyesore. Only Samsung fan-bois will deny this.
If purchsed, Return before it's too late. Special $$$ trade in deals of Samsung will not help the long term user regret, on user experience.
Any fold will be impressive to a new user, but this is not competitive.
I had the Samsung Fold3&4, so speak from experience. While Samsung has a polished OS, it is just too narrow for vertical use, even when opened.
I Had to use the main screen turned sideways every time(!) to avoid multitasking app issues, from apps forced into a narrow aspect ratio.
Yes even opened, the apps are forced onto an aspect ratio not native to apps.
Apps will behave funny, and browsers will have missing buttons on some sites due to being confined in such narrow space when held vertical.
So you are forced to turn your unit 90° (sideways) EVERY TIME.... The same format and size which the pixel Fold is natively in!.
Also "Flex mode" looks better on "wider" screens like the google pixel. This is also most noticable on the even wider surface duo/duo2 ..Once you go fat, you don't go back.
The google Pixel only need to go a bit taller in next iterations, and switch out those cheap dull screen types that look dim in sunlight, plus an updated processor that won't stay warm all the time, as pixel does.
I myself "downgraded " to a used "surface duo 2", in wait for the "OnePlus Open Fold".
It will give a better form factor than these units.
The Fold5 is actually just an updated Fold4, which should have sold for $900, because of zero change in innovation or design. Samsung admits this by giving you a $1k trade in.
It's nothing more than an updated unit, because of "forced" normal updated parts changes(like the chips), due to parts manufacturers updating their latest parts and EOL replacements, which always include circuit diagram updates for thier updated parts, so practically ZERO innovation here...
Consumers fall for this year's iteration, because of "new toy syndrome" and shiny new parts. Even the screen HAD to be updated from last gen regardless, as manufacturing of screens are always racing to be competitive and have newer screens, not last year's old parts.
Samsung just lazy and "cashing in" on an updated phone, instead of pushing for a new phone. Nothing that consumers asked for. This year is a "skip-year" for Samsung, unless your getting an s23 Ultra, which actually does have an integrated Bluetooth s pen, great cameras, and good battery.
Sorry but the only good thing about the Fold5... is being able to upgrade in future, to a Fold6.
Kitna time hai Bhai tumhre pass
I can't get past the price lol but I understand it your paying for 2 phones instead of 1. Anyhow thank you for the review
I just don't get with the premium price, why they can't put the ultras 10x optical Zoom on it. I use it on mine all the time.
The camera is pretty much the only reason I get flagships at times.
High end phone cameras is a huge must for me.
Ask them to change your screen protector. Free of charge and simple fix, lmmfao
That's not the problem. The actual active display is off center.
I really like your videos you are very cute. 😊😊
I'd rather not have a camera at all than having a potato quality one
Check your eyes if you think Z Fold 5's cameras are potato quality
@@AIejandroidethe udc on the inner screen is pretty potato ngl
@@김노아-h5sthen don't and use the cover display camera instead
Eh
I don't think I will ever be a folding phone guy I am happy to have a phone and a tablet with zero compromises. For example, a crease going through the centre of the screen.
That's not even noticeable
@@zachcline7555 Much like Shannon can’t unsee her screen not being centered I can’t unsee the crease.
I'm pretty sure that little gap is there to allow the screen to shift while folding
And it still has that dumb narrow design😂. Make the dam phone wider already and still no built in s pen. Pixel fold got the design right on the first Gen. If Samsung doesn't change design unfold 6 I will be getting the second generation pixel fold. And that's coming from a person whose owned nothing but Samsung phones his entire life
What does the 5 year security update mean? Like sfter 5 years your phonr will not br securr anymlre??😂
Samsung will continue to patch the phone with security updates for 5 years. After that your phone will no longer receive those patches. So if a new vulnerability is found after 5 years, it will not be patched.
@@ShannonMorse thanks for the reply! Will it still get android updates?? I mean software updates? I have a galaxy s8 now, and i cant update it anymore fx😔
Comment for engagement
Anuksha Sharma 😂
Hi Shannon I'm watching your video 😊
Yay! Thank you!
Potato camera 😂😂
✨⭐✨💕💞💕💞💕💞💕💞💕💞💕✨⭐✨
Skip every fold phone, it's just marketing. No-one (read that again) has any practical use for such a phone. Only if you want to waste a lot of money and like something that can break at any moment (costing you more of that money you seam to be able to waste on a useless product that you think you need because of all the hype)
How about people with small pockets? That or in my case I find that the Galaxy S20 always tends to be slippery/fall out of my pocket...
Had my for a year so far problem free
@@josephmessere7617 good for you
Ew no way in hell am i ever getting a fold
it's definitely better than the €2K Apple
