I switched from a iPhone 15 pro max to a fold 6. Haven’t been on android in over a decade. Best switch I ever made. I’ll go back to iPhone when they finally do something new.
@@tearkey1624it’s not a deal breaker at all my friend, trust me. The size difference is marginal and the slightly narrower screen makes it much more usable for one handed use. Trust me, if feels great when you get the hang of it.

This was really more of a switching from iOS to android video rather than the phones themselves. Plus as you said in the video you’re not interested in the folding feature of the fold pretty much neglecting the whole reason for getting one in the first place.
yeah. i dont get the point of this video if he already didnt like a folding feature in the first place. 9:50 also, he need to stop reviewing foldable phones, we all know where his bias is. he should just review products in the apple ecosystem.
I thought I missed my phone too until I switched back and realized I was dead wrong and went back to my fold 6. 😅 As far as communication goes I live in the US and I use telegram with just about everybody
Got the z fold 6. Swapped backed to iPhone and glad I did. Samsung has slacked on this phone big time compared to the 5. They just announced z fold 6 titanium and FE and will probably slim down a lot and may be easier to use and hold. Just wait for iPhone to come out with their flip or fold in 2-3 years. Will blow them out. (Long time android user)
Spent 15 days without my z fold 4, used my old Note 10+ (which I sort of though I missed because of the integrated s pen) and I really, reaaaaally missed it. Thinking about upgrading to the Honor Magic V3.
I was iphone users since the iphone 5. Upgrade all the way to the newest and greatest iphone each year. But this year, I switched to Fold. And it's the best day ever for me. No regret.
And also, since the iphone 5, I was full into apple ecosystem, with macbook, apple watch, airpods, etc. but after switched to Fold, I didn't miss anything... I think foldable is the future. When apple make foldable, I will switch back lol
@dr.JR8 The galaxy ring is really just nothing more than a gimmick. There's no reason to wear it outside of when you take a run, there's even less of a reason to wear it if you alrady are wearing a smart watch, as there's nothing the ring can do that the watch can't, but there are plenty of things that the watch can do that the ring can't, and it's also quite a lot less accurate than a smart watch. If you want a ring, suggest you get a real one.
I enjoyed your take on these 2 devices. I carry both the Z Fold 6 and iPhone Pro max 15 daily. I use the ZF6 about 60% of the time. I agree about communication with the 15 Pro max. Most of my family and friends are Apple users so texts and Facetime are winners with them. However, when it comes to videos, content, games and emails - I prefer the Z Fold 6. I've even been using the cover screen a lot more since for me, the very small increase has made a big difference in usage. I still would love a wider cover display. I can't see myself going full Z Fold 6 - but as a second device - it's great!
Finally an educated commenter that sees the use for both phones without anally burning. The hate of some of these Android users towards the iPhoneis ridiculous.
Nah. His critiques are on point. I have had the Folds 3,4 and 5. The cases suck and the s-pen hasn’t even been integrated yet which is a JOKE after 6 generations.
I have to disagree, being of the generation when cell phones were invented. Over that time, many things we were thinking, in the same way you think of foldables today, were product innovations we thought would never catch on. But as tech evolved and those same devices were refined, they took over as "THE" standard and future until the cycle repeated. It may take a few more years but I guarantee this form factor will reach mainstream status when the tech and price are more appealing.
It'll reach mainstream status once Apple releases the folding iPhone 😉 Beyond that the hardware critiques are valid, if all else was equal with the thickness and exterior screen size BUT you could also fold out a larger display, most people would buy that if they could afford it since it doubles as a small tablet.

You a youtuber reviewers. So did you really switch or were you just using z fold 6 for 3 to 6 months? And also, i have android and never use use google duo but whatsapp is the best to communicate with ios and android. Best of both world
I wish I could return my Fold 6. It was great the first month but now i realize how heavy it is and android apps don’t work together as well as apps do on iPhone. iPhone hardware may be boring but the iOS and its many features just work. Android apps still don’t work well together. Especially Samsung Health and other health apps. Picked up an iPhone 15 Pro and it’s working out better for my needs.

Competition phones were waterproof and charged by induction, while Apple did not innovate and did not listen to its own audience. I switched to an Xperia Z3 (the first waterproof). My first experience with Android was amazing and I realized that Androids were for people who loved innovation and technology, and iPhones were for people who loved status and who wanted to be part of the little club. I picked up my first Galaxy on the S7 Edge (perfection), never abandoned Samsung again. I had a Note 8, a Note 20 Ultra and an S22 Ultra. At the launch of the iPhone XS, I gave Apple another chance and got two ecosystems; summary: I didn't use the iPhone because of its absurd limitations. Nowadays, I traded my S22 Ultra for a Z Fold 6. At first it was difficult, we've been used to the same format for 10 years. I must say that I have adapted and I see several advantages, but I still do not know if I prefer him or the S24 Ultra. If you're not early adopter or crazy about specs and new technologies, don't have a foldable, it's not practical. But well, I'm testing it, because I wanted to have that experience. For you, iPhone user, if you want to change, do not choose a foldable, play on the right team and take an Ultra S24; once you get used to it, you can think about giving it a chance. Ps. I was stuck too long thinking I was special for participating in this Apple bubble. Branding is so impeccable that it brainwashes, thinking that all they do is alien technology and the value is justifiable. Do you live in the U.S.? Have an iPhone. Do you live in any other country? Say goodbye to your toy phone.
Great comparison of the two devices. I carry both the Z Fold 6 and the iPhone 15 Pro daily, my main sim is in the iPhone for access to Carplay and Airplay. Totally get why for Americans it’s hard to beat for texting and FaceTime, especially with family and friends being Apple users. But outside the blue bubble Whatsapp is the standard makes moving across far less of challenge, when it comes to videos, content consumption, gaming, and emails, the Fold 6 is my go-to, I got rid of an S24 Ultra to buy it. One thing I think that's not talked about enough is using AirPlay for streaming with third party devices like Sonos speakers, it works seamlessly with the iPhone. Unfortunately, Google’s lack of support for a good streaming codec means really does not get enough attention. For me carrying the iPhone alongside the Fold, gives me the best of both worlds. Years ago I thought that Foldables were going to change the world, their NOT. However they are a great alternative if you can afford them and you have a desire to stand out from the crowd - and for me thats what ticks the box. Keep up the great work.
I live in Europe part time so I can vouch for the Apple stuff not being that important in a mostly Android world. What's more annoying whether Apple or Android is that there are at least 4-5 messaging apps that people prefer in my network. Beyond WhatsApp there's Messenger, Signal and Telegram on top of SMS (not to mention Instagram, X, etc.). iMessage is probably as close as we'll ever get to the ubiquity of email but for messaging.
I find it kinda crazy to carry two phones let alone one expensive z fold. I can easily afford both phones no problem cash but why would anyone carry two phones when one can do everything? Imagine the upgrade path just to have two phones is insane for cost and how much you’re carrying around. I understand if you carry an iPhone that work gave you free and the fold 6 being a personal device but why would anyone carry both is just crazy to me.
Good points! Was heavy Android user for years, up to Note Edge. Then switched to iPhone and the Apple Ecosystem just makes connecting with family and friends so much easier! Find my, Air drop, iMessage, FaceTime all seamless from phones to iPads around the house to MacBooks. Once you’re in you’re in, hard to explain to people who have never had a family full of iPhone users. With all that said I cannot wait for Apple to finally get a folding device, long overdue!!
You should have tried the Oneplus Open or the Honor Magic V3. If you are not bound to the Apple Ecosystem (meaning that you have lots of Apple devices and switching between them), you might be enjoying those more than the Z Fold 6.
Back in time when the world was round I had a Nokia N97. Touch screen phones had not yet been made. Nowadays I have absolutely no desire to get a foldable phone. Imo the cons FAR outweigh the pros.
Perfect video, man! I need your help. Could you suggest which phone I should pick Z fold 6 or the Iphone 16 Pro Max? I’m currently using the full Apple ecosystem, including the iPhone 12, Series 9 Apple Watch, M2 Mac, and AirPods. I’m thinking about getting the Z Fold 6. What are your thoughts? Recently, so many people have been purchasing iPhones, which is why I’m not considering the iPhone 16 series.
I relate a lot to this video. I have tried every Fold since the 3. I normally get them at a much better price on the private market shortly after release, so I don't pay anywhere near the retail price. But even with that, I end up getting that "uncomfortable" feeling with a Fold. Like it's great.. But for me.. In CERTAIN situations is great. And a slab phone is just better and more practical is many more circumstances. I don't think the Fold line is for me to be honest, yes the bigger display is amazing, editing photos I've taken with my mirrorless is handy too. But I don't know, I feel a slab just fits in to my life better and I'm so much more comfortable using it in more daily situations. Great video man 👍
I wonder if the recently announced Pixel 9 Pro Fold would be better for you. Allegedly weighs less, has a normal thickness even when closed and an outer screen with the same dimensions as the Pixel 9. Not sure if I can give up my Dex or the battery life and cameras of my S24 Ultra, but I'm curious.
Hi Naseem!!! I also have a channel about technology and I must wait for the iPhone 16 Pro Max to make my decision about my smartphone. Unfortunately, I expected more changes in this model and it still doesn't give me the same security as a conventional smartphone. Maybe I'll bring him on my channel just because I have contact with Samsung. Here in Brazil there are many launch promotions, so it costs around 1300~1400 dollars or less depending on the promotion if you add up all the discounts. The problem is our purchasing power, yours is better. Good content, I wish you all the best, hugs!!!
Well put. It’s always been like this iPhone is just more user friendly. Most people don’t need a phone to be so complicated. It depends on the person at the end of the day
I would never buy an iPhone no thanks, I have beats that's about it for me, I am an old head so I've been there since cell phones started android was there so I got used to that! I'll stay with my s22 ultra
I have had my s24 ultra for 5 month's, hit the nail. I love the customization of the phone. But the overall apps experience and messaging is what i love about iphone. So prob going back and just giving my ultra to family as a present.
It’s crazy how Apple has turned the entirety of the us into Apple sheeps trust me I use an iPhone too but like I don’t think it’s any better than Samsung because to be honest there are some Samsung phones that made me completely want to switch over to them
Is it that they're sheep? Or does it provide something simple that alot of people like that android can't match? It's crazy how android fans call apple users sheep but android still can't create a platform that rivals something as small as iMessage. Every attempt they tried failed. I've used both and even though android has a bunch of features that's nice, apple does the day to day things perfectly.
I switched from an iPhone 15 pro max to a Samsung S24 Ultra which is the best phone I have ever owned . I don’t live in the US and use windows laptops so not being tied to imessage , FaceTime , iOS etc is liberating in some ways.
Once I went to a fold from a slab phone, I thought it was amazing. Intried to use a slab phone afterwards, and I realized the foldable is amazing. I can't use a slab phone anymore
Im a little lost Yes, samsung could have made a bigger outer display, but to say the weight of the foldable market fell on them and they failed due to a smaller screen doesnt make since. All the tech tubers are toting the competition so hard, so if the market really wanted foldables, theyd get the phone that fits them best. I think its becoming very easy to put the blame game on samsung
Cosmic Folding World A galaxy in my pocket, a screen like the sky, Fold 6, a dream that bursts the heart. I want to grab a star with my touch, Immerse myself in the cosmic world in the blink of an eye. Words flow like rays of light, New worlds are painted on the screen. Fold 6, my guide to the universe, You open doors to unknown ends. A foldable miracle, the pinnacle of technology, I carry the entire cosmos in my pocket. With you, Fold 6, time would flow faster, And I hope that one day my dream about you will become a reality.
Since I have OCD I could never own that Samsung folding phone because of that crease. How did OnePlus get less of a crease in one flip versus Samsung’s 6 iterations? Love my 15 Pro Max.
See with me I am the opposite! Everyone that I communicate with has Android and not iphone, so features like RCS is perfect, which will be coming to the iphones very soon! So my current z flip 6 works perfect for me! also have had no issue sharing on social media!
Returned my Fold, I feel like they’re the future but it has to be done right IMO. All I’m asking for is Samsung to make a S24Ultra fold. Front display doesn’t have to be as big but at least wider.
Why would samsung make the ultra fold?. Think. It will kill the ultra market. And why would they do that. Front is perfect for most of the fold user. People always complaint. I agree fold 6 isn't perfect but it is the best overall foldables in the market.
To each their own….I have a iPhone pro max but going to the fold 6. Reason is cause I’m tired of IPhone and I do a lot of reading and the big screen works for me. . Apple is convenient for sure then again so is android. Just have to know the work arounds in both devices. Everyone has there preferences which isn’t a bad thing. Good video all around
A biased android user. Im currently watching from my fold 6 and have to say.... fair points! If you in the "apple eco system" it will be difficult to switch just as if you are already an android user and not big on social media you wont switch either.... Both great phones
Who else have a android and a iPhone. I use my iPhone for work purposes and then my android for my day to day task manager I love it I get so much done multitasking
I switched back too but returned my fold 6 and got an s24 ultra as a secondary phone. I just love the apple ecosystem man but I still have the s24 ultra as a secondary phone for work stuff. Idk the iPhone is just better to use and everyone I know.
I don't get why people won't accept it that the Z Fold series is meant for open use. Samsung even calls the inner screen the "Main Screen". If you want a wider screen, use a slab style phone.
switching phones or comparing phones this day getting boring and boring each year... the features and technology almost focusing only on the camera features and processing. But day to day use it does not bring edge a lot because of the same applications we use like social media apps, games etc. I have my Samsung s23 base model and iphone 13pro and until now I dont have the urge anymore to update or change phones..I will use it until it breaks.
My problem with switching to android is that some of my key apps I use daily simply don’t work on android. The developers are the reason for this. Devs treat android like a second thought
Foldables are the future when they get thinner to the point where it feels like a regular phone closed, price drop, and no crease. I have the z fold 6 I'll never go back to a 15 pro max
My first ever phone was an iphone got tired of the same boring phone year after year 12 years of using iphone i move the fold 6 and i will never go back to iphone
I like both. iphone is much better on social media especially with x. But there is something about Samsung i really like a lot. So far, ill keep the z fold 6 as my main, and the iphone 14 pro as my secondary.
Samsung has nailed it with respect to the Fold6. For people complaining about the zfold6 screen size vs other foldable phones. I bet in a real world scenario people will prefer the size of Zfold6. Why because if it gets any bigger then the whole purpose of the fold will no longer be usable
I've used both worlds and I can say simplicity goes to iPhone but fun goes to android. I wish apple could make there phones open to the world and side loading becomes a niche just like the android world, Less restrictions
I can see myself using the fold as a traveling phone or home use. I don’t see myself using it while doing my daily work day or on the metro . The fold is just to much into your face and getting to much attention.
Just another American telling us how big iPhone is in the US. I've like 4 of your videos now, and i believe you need to add more edits to ur video to make it more engaging.
the only issue with a Foldable phone is the camera is never the greatest.. I'd rather get a slab with a good camera then a foldable phone.. If it had a good camera then id deal with it.. i love the foldable inside cscreen for toilet use lol.. or on the train or if im waiting somewhere...
Obviously you don't get the real usefulness of floatables. There's isn't a single iPhone that could do a split screen natively. The same goes for heavy users of Google Assistant or Gemini.
I have both the 15 PM and the fold 6. For basic shit, I use the iPhone. But for productivity and Media consumption, fold 6 is the 👑. Just wait till you tap into Samsung dex. Another level!!! Fold 6 for the win.
Lmao I switched from iPhone to fold 6 and I'm never going back. Hit me when iPhone releases a different type of phone. I'm not going to keep buying the same phone with new updates every year.
The people that don’t multiple Apple products will never understand the convenience of the Apple ecosystem. I always need to have an iPhone and Android, but my main phone is always iPhone cause of it, it just saves me time. I’m shocked by the people who don’t understand why someone likes iPhones or Android more - it’s a personal preference - there’s no wrong or right, otherwise we would only have one (not the other) - Windows phones died cause they sucked, iPhones and Androids are great and they are gonna be here for a long time…
exactly I have a iphone ,ipad pro and a macbook,use it for extreme productivity, nongames instagram etc the ecosystem is the king,most who compare and switch back and forth arent too successful in their careers,nothing against them but the Samsung ecosystem just sucks in general the wualith justnisnt there
Wow, he didn't even adjust any settings for quality. Try learning something new that you're not used to. He really is stuck in a bubble! This is what separates the boys from the men.
Flip same as ultra😮 which world you live in? If u buy both ultras that would cost u 2600 dollars. Whereas fold cost 1800. Folds for those people who don't want to carry 2 things all the time. It's compact and pocketable.
Let’s be honest since I am so used to just using one screen on my iPhone I probably would not even open the fold up to get the better display because if everything that I want my phone to show is on the front screen then why do I need to open it up?

What's more annoying whether Apple or Android is that there are at least 4-5 messaging apps that people prefer in my network. Beyond WhatsApp there's Messenger, Signal and Telegram on top of SMS (not to mention Instagram, X, etc.). iMessage is probably as close as we'll ever get to the ubiquity of email but for messaging.
I find it kinda crazy to carry two phones let alone one expensive z fold. I can easily afford both phones no problem cash but why would anyone carry two phones when one can do everything? Imagine the upgrade path just to have two phones is insane for cost and how much you’re carrying around. I understand if you carry an iPhone that work gave you free and the fold 6 being a personal device but why would anyone carry both is just crazy to me.
Good points! Was heavy Android user for years, up to Note Edge. Then switched to iPhone and the Apple Ecosystem just makes connecting with family and friends so much easier! Find my, Air drop, iMessage, FaceTime all seamless from phones to iPads around the house to MacBooks. Once you’re in you’re in, hard to explain to people who have never had a family full of iPhone users. With all that said I cannot wait for Apple to finally get a folding device, long overdue!!
You should have tried the Oneplus Open or the Honor Magic V3. If you are not bound to the Apple Ecosystem (meaning that you have lots of Apple devices and switching between them), you might be enjoying those more than the Z Fold 6.
Back in time when the world was round I had a Nokia N97. Touch screen phones had not yet been made. Nowadays I have absolutely no desire to get a foldable phone. Imo the cons FAR outweigh the pros.
What wallpaper was that on your iPhone? Black N white one?
Perfect video, man! I need your help. Could you suggest which phone I should pick Z fold 6 or the Iphone 16 Pro Max? I’m currently using the full Apple ecosystem, including the iPhone 12, Series 9 Apple Watch, M2 Mac, and AirPods. I’m thinking about getting the Z Fold 6. What are your thoughts? Recently, so many people have been purchasing iPhones, which is why I’m not considering the iPhone 16 series.
Go for the fold! Try it out
Great review, I have just come across your video and subscribed! Keep it up! 👍
he makes often notes or handdrawn stuff?
Or Game with like Controller and Steam Link?
or do Picture edit on phone while on the way?
^^
I relate a lot to this video. I have tried every Fold since the 3. I normally get them at a much better price on the private market shortly after release, so I don't pay anywhere near the retail price. But even with that, I end up getting that "uncomfortable" feeling with a Fold. Like it's great.. But for me.. In CERTAIN situations is great. And a slab phone is just better and more practical is many more circumstances. I don't think the Fold line is for me to be honest, yes the bigger display is amazing, editing photos I've taken with my mirrorless is handy too. But I don't know, I feel a slab just fits in to my life better and I'm so much more comfortable using it in more daily situations. Great video man 👍
I wonder if the recently announced Pixel 9 Pro Fold would be better for you. Allegedly weighs less, has a normal thickness even when closed and an outer screen with the same dimensions as the Pixel 9. Not sure if I can give up my Dex or the battery life and cameras of my S24 Ultra, but I'm curious.
Great video
Great point of view
Thanks for your input 😮😮😮😮😮😮
Not a lot of people on TH-cam would have said that!
What car chase gane was that he was playing? Def want it
Hi Naseem!!! I also have a channel about technology and I must wait for the iPhone 16 Pro Max to make my decision about my smartphone. Unfortunately, I expected more changes in this model and it still doesn't give me the same security as a conventional smartphone. Maybe I'll bring him on my channel just because I have contact with Samsung. Here in Brazil there are many launch promotions, so it costs around 1300~1400 dollars or less depending on the promotion if you add up all the discounts. The problem is our purchasing power, yours is better. Good content, I wish you all the best, hugs!!!
Well put. It’s always been like this iPhone is just more user friendly. Most people don’t need a phone to be so complicated. It depends on the person at the end of the day
I would never buy an iPhone no thanks, I have beats that's about it for me, I am an old head so I've been there since cell phones started android was there so I got used to that! I'll stay with my s22 ultra
Can’t teach old dog new tricks
Could you please tell me how can I get the same wallpaper as your iPhone's?
Yo how does you iPhone look like that? With the apps and large widget
IOS 18 beta
I have had my s24 ultra for 5 month's, hit the nail. I love the customization of the phone. But the overall apps experience and messaging is what i love about iphone. So prob going back and just giving my ultra to family as a present.
I Like your date widget on your iPhone. What is the name ?
It’s crazy how Apple has turned the entirety of the us into Apple sheeps trust me I use an iPhone too but like I don’t think it’s any better than Samsung because to be honest there are some Samsung phones that made me completely want to switch over to them
Is it that they're sheep? Or does it provide something simple that alot of people like that android can't match? It's crazy how android fans call apple users sheep but android still can't create a platform that rivals something as small as iMessage. Every attempt they tried failed. I've used both and even though android has a bunch of features that's nice, apple does the day to day things perfectly.
I switched from an iPhone 15 pro max to a Samsung S24 Ultra which is the best phone I have ever owned . I don’t live in the US and use windows laptops so not being tied to imessage , FaceTime , iOS etc is liberating in some ways.
I'm not no Isheep lol team Samsung
Take a shot 🍺 everytime he says "ay phone"
You sound like a prisoner in that walled garden.😂
Just use the front display its alot better for one hamded use
Good point😊😊
I do agree with you, but you really should not have called this video Z Fold 6 review 😅
Should have been the iPhone 15 pro is the best money can buy I wonder they get paid for these 😂😂😂
Naseem, i do agree with your video.
Nice! I feel like I made valid points:)
@naseemspeach you did I am a Samsung user and have the s24 plus and wouldn't go to a fold not worth the price.
@@YankeesGiantswell fold 6 was cheaper than s24 ultra to get from Samsung anyway....
Once I went to a fold from a slab phone, I thought it was amazing. Intried to use a slab phone afterwards, and I realized the foldable is amazing. I can't use a slab phone anymore
It’s a 2 in 1. Productive on the large screen is best. Beast mode.
Im a little lost
Yes, samsung could have made a bigger outer display, but to say the weight of the foldable market fell on them and they failed due to a smaller screen doesnt make since. All the tech tubers are toting the competition so hard, so if the market really wanted foldables, theyd get the phone that fits them best. I think its becoming very easy to put the blame game on samsung
Great perspectives
Cosmic Folding World
A galaxy in my pocket, a screen like the sky,
Fold 6, a dream that bursts the heart.
I want to grab a star with my touch,
Immerse myself in the cosmic world in the blink of an eye.
Words flow like rays of light,
New worlds are painted on the screen.
Fold 6, my guide to the universe,
You open doors to unknown ends.
A foldable miracle, the pinnacle of technology,
I carry the entire cosmos in my pocket.
With you, Fold 6, time would flow faster,
And I hope that one day my dream about you will become a reality.
Damn👍👏
Same thing here im writing this comment with fold 6 but man iphone is waaaay better
Since I have OCD I could never own that Samsung folding phone because of that crease. How did OnePlus get less of a crease in one flip versus Samsung’s 6 iterations? Love my 15 Pro Max.
See with me I am the opposite! Everyone that I communicate with has Android and not iphone, so features like RCS is perfect, which will be coming to the iphones very soon! So my current z flip 6 works perfect for me! also have had no issue sharing on social media!
Returned my Fold, I feel like they’re the future but it has to be done right IMO. All I’m asking for is Samsung to make a S24Ultra fold. Front display doesn’t have to be as big but at least wider.
Why would samsung make the ultra fold?. Think. It will kill the ultra market. And why would they do that. Front is perfect for most of the fold user. People always complaint. I agree fold 6 isn't perfect but it is the best overall foldables in the market.
@samjaiwin No shit Sherlock.
To each their own….I have a iPhone pro max but going to the fold 6. Reason is cause I’m tired of IPhone and I do a lot of reading and the big screen works for me. . Apple is convenient for sure then again so is android. Just have to know the work arounds in both devices. Everyone has there preferences which isn’t a bad thing. Good video all around
This is an apple sheep. He will get an apple fold and say omg! Its so great.
Facts. All the Apple people will and I’m one of them.
A biased android user. Im currently watching from my fold 6 and have to say.... fair points! If you in the "apple eco system" it will be difficult to switch just as if you are already an android user and not big on social media you wont switch either....
Both great phones
You are right it is dependent on environment. In asia, lots of people use WhatsApp, so android works just as well.
Who else have a android and a iPhone. I use my iPhone for work purposes and then my android for my day to day task manager I love it I get so much done multitasking
The fact that Samsung is having a crazy sale now to get the Fold 6 cheaper than the S24 Ultra should tell you something about sales.
Final comments if you want less stick with the iPhone 😂
I switched back too but returned my fold 6 and got an s24 ultra as a secondary phone. I just love the apple ecosystem man but I still have the s24 ultra as a secondary phone for work stuff. Idk the iPhone is just better to use and everyone I know.
I don't get why people won't accept it that the Z Fold series is meant for open use. Samsung even calls the inner screen the "Main Screen". If you want a wider screen, use a slab style phone.
switching phones or comparing phones this day getting boring and boring each year... the features and technology almost focusing only on the camera features and processing. But day to day use it does not bring edge a lot because of the same applications we use like social media apps, games etc. I have my Samsung s23 base model and iphone 13pro and until now I dont have the urge anymore to update or change phones..I will use it until it breaks.
My problem with switching to android is that some of my key apps I use daily simply don’t work on android. The developers are the reason for this. Devs treat android like a second thought
Maybe about 5 yrs ago! About 70% mobile devices on the planet are Android. So your Apple claim is pure fantasy at this stage.
the native apple apps like notes pages etc are 100 times better than the paid android apps
Foldables are the future when they get thinner to the point where it feels like a regular phone closed, price drop, and no crease. I have the z fold 6 I'll never go back to a 15 pro max
I m using fold for 2 months now i am using this as phone laptop and tab so this is 3 in 1 i haveny open laptop since the
This guy makes solid statements
You miss your iphone? Iphone users pee sitting down 😂
If u want to drive fordable then Honor magic V3 is the way to go .
My first ever phone was an iphone got tired of the same boring phone year after year 12 years of using iphone i move the fold 6 and i will never go back to iphone
You miss iphone because the software is so good the larger display feels like a second hand compensation. Nothing makes sense OS wise
It's funny that even in 2024 Apple still doesn't allow multitasking on the iPhone. I have an S21 ultra and a Fold 5, I like them both.
I like both. iphone is much better on social media especially with x. But there is something about Samsung i really like a lot. So far, ill keep the z fold 6 as my main, and the iphone 14 pro as my secondary.
Samsung has nailed it with respect to the Fold6. For people complaining about the zfold6 screen size vs other foldable phones. I bet in a real world scenario people will prefer the size of Zfold6. Why because if it gets any bigger then the whole purpose of the fold will no longer be usable
I miss the apples password locker. Samsung tends to fight with Google passwords.
I've used both worlds and I can say simplicity goes to iPhone but fun goes to android. I wish apple could make there phones open to the world and side loading becomes a niche just like the android world, Less restrictions
I didn't see any difference btw iphone and fold 6 videos at the end.
I can see myself using the fold as a traveling phone or home use.
I don’t see myself using it while doing my daily work day or on the metro . The fold is just to much into your face and getting to much attention.
I switched to the fold from iPhone 15 pro max I love my fold I don't miss my iPhone iPhone isn't good at all iPhone stinks
It's less a Fold 6 vs iPhone 15 video than an Apple vs Samsung video.
Apple.vs android ;)
Probably a little too much phone for an Apple fan, agreed.
Just another American telling us how big iPhone is in the US.
I've like 4 of your videos now, and i believe you need to add more edits to ur video to make it more engaging.
How are you bro
Good bro! feels good to post a video again, how are you?
the only issue with a Foldable phone is the camera is never the greatest.. I'd rather get a slab with a good camera then a foldable phone.. If it had a good camera then id deal with it.. i love the foldable inside cscreen for toilet use lol.. or on the train or if im waiting somewhere...
Then don't compare if you don't like samsung products 😏😏
Obviously you don't get the real usefulness of floatables. There's isn't a single iPhone that could do a split screen natively. The same goes for heavy users of Google Assistant or Gemini.
I have both phones and the zfold 6 took a backseat and I'm an Android user
I have both the 15 PM and the fold 6. For basic shit, I use the iPhone. But for productivity and Media consumption, fold 6 is the 👑. Just wait till you tap into Samsung dex. Another level!!! Fold 6 for the win.
Zfold is a better experience for me .
The fold can’t stand up against the 15 pro max. The 15PM is on a whole other higher level lol with better zoom, micro and night mode.
You meant macro? You do realize that you only gave points for the camera...in which the S24 ultra would be a bettee contender anyway...nothing new
So you basically say apple locks their customers in jail, and I hope they will be forced in the future to change the way they work.
I think you need to use Android more than iOS. This video was more of you putting Apple vs Samsung
Lmao I switched from iPhone to fold 6 and I'm never going back. Hit me when iPhone releases a different type of phone. I'm not going to keep buying the same phone with new updates every year.
His opinion on folding device will change drastically after apple make one.
Once they make it the same size as a s24 it's over
I had a fold 4 when it came out after about 3 months i started to miss my iphone so i went and brought another iphone and sold my fold 😂
Ok so you're off the s24 ultra 😅
The people that don’t multiple Apple products will never understand the convenience of the Apple ecosystem. I always need to have an iPhone and Android, but my main phone is always iPhone cause of it, it just saves me time. I’m shocked by the people who don’t understand why someone likes iPhones or Android more - it’s a personal preference - there’s no wrong or right, otherwise we would only have one (not the other) - Windows phones died cause they sucked, iPhones and Androids are great and they are gonna be here for a long time…
exactly I have a iphone ,ipad pro and a macbook,use it for extreme productivity, nongames instagram etc the ecosystem is the king,most who compare and switch back and forth arent too successful in their careers,nothing against them but the Samsung ecosystem just sucks in general the wualith justnisnt there
Wow, he didn't even adjust any settings for quality. Try learning something new that you're not used to. He really is stuck in a bubble! This is what separates the boys from the men.
I just like a mini iPad in my pocket bro. Lol 😂
Flip same price as ultra! Get an ultra and a tab s9 ultra. Same cost as fold way better experience
Flip same as ultra😮 which world you live in? If u buy both ultras that would cost u 2600 dollars. Whereas fold cost 1800. Folds for those people who don't want to carry 2 things all the time. It's compact and pocketable.
Let’s be honest since I am so used to just using one screen on my iPhone I probably would not even open the fold up to get the better display because if everything that I want my phone to show is on the front screen then why do I need to open it up?
