3:48 in my experience going from a Samsung z fold 4 to a z fold 5, the flatness actually makes a big difference for longevity. I saw that the 4 eventually wouldn't open as much anymore. I've now had the 5 for longer than i had the 4 and it feels pretty much as good as it did day one. The Z Fold 5 is one flaw away from being flawless, imo. The outer screen is too skinny. If these phones were more affordable, I'd absolutely experiment with these other brands.
Hi. Yes, You are right by not folding flat annoys me. However, I have a few complains about samsung. Very narrow cover display, Average battery life, deep inner crease and no changes to camera. Samsung still is brilliant in software department only if their hardware is as good as S24 Ultra they would just kill the other folds. Thats my opinion. Samsung was a company who used to give consumers a lot but now they are being lazy in fold series.
you are wrong about the previous version of vivo x fold not having horizontal split screen. i have vivo x fold 1. i got the update about 8 months ago that let apps split horizontal. vivo updated it very well, they listened to the customer, even though it was only Chinese release. i imported my one to Australia. over 2 years and it's still going strong. no issues at all . 👍👍😎
Thats awesome mate. When i had it with me they didnt update it. So good to see that they have listened and implemented it. Its so good to have that split makes a huge difference.
Hey, do you know if vevo has double press camera shortcut? Do you know if you were able to reprogram any of the side buttons to get Google Assistant on there?
When unfolded and useing any app (not on the home screen), you can long-press the bottom part of the vivo and it will show the task bar. Long-press again can remove the task bar, so it looks cleaner on webpage or ebook apps. Just some tips for you, keep posting great video mate!
how's the optimisation of software for inner screen in general other than social media on the vivo x fold? Videos / Documents Vivo lacks Android Auto which isn't great. Wonder if there is a way to get around it
The optimisation is actually very good. All the apps which i have used has been optimised so no issues there. Yes, Android auto out of the box will not work. I have heard there is a workaround for android auto but never tried it.
Thank you for the awesome comparison. Can you please let me know if you receive notifications on the front screen always on display? Thank you in advance for your time!
You are right these things are not light weight they are heavy. However, all flagship phones these days are heavy. being a foldable phone the weight distribution in this one is good so its manageable compared with Pixel fold which is short and very heavy and u can feel it.
Hi. I don't have any issues with notifications. However, with gmail and only with gmail u need to make 1 adjustment. You need to go to gmail app and sync the emails and set it to all. And after that the gmail notifications work fine. Not just in this phone but a few android phones recently have this issue
@@Cool_Saf Could you please describe how to fix it? I tried but notifications still not coming. I turned on all in settings, but where I can find the "sync" method?
@@davidkostka7602 Hi Mate. Open Gmail > 3 lines on top left > settings > then click on your email > Inbox - Default Inbox > Notifications ( Email notifications) - make sure its on ALL > Inbox notifications - Sync messages - make sure its on ALL, also make sure Notify for every message is ticked and also Label notifications(optional) . Also last step in manage labels make sure all of them are sync in all set to ALL. Apart from that make sure your system notification is set to receive Gmail notifications(which i feel should have been enabled by default - but just check).
I have a question about AOD but not the notifications. In the past I have had Vivo's CN version phones that uses originos 3 and in the AOD options in themes app I can see and download or purchase additional AOD's, but on my newest Vivo x fold 3 pro which uses the same OS version as the X100 pro. However the option for purchase additional AOD in themes is not there, all I see is Themes, Fonts, wallpaper, live wallpaper, ringtones and input method. What about yours? Do you still get that option? Thanks
I'm hearing a lot of positive feedback on VIvo's cameras so I'm still leaning a bit towards it. Hopefully it becomes available to more countries. But Oneplus has nailed the software for the Open.
True. Vivo cameras are really good. Rumours are there is going to be a global Release but not yet confirmed. But i agree software is good in both but oneplus has the slight edge in software department.
Vivo got snap dragon gen 3, wireless charger, 5000 Mah battery and finger print sensor on display.. Time to upgrade my one plus open 🎉🎉🎉 Just waiting for the global rom to launch by Vivo..
@@Cool_Saf I hope it doesn't take a long time like the honor magic V2 for them to launch the global rom.. It will be head to head with Z Fold 6 when it launches.. By the way how is the front cover display on this vivo bro is it narrow just like the Z Fold series or wider just like the one plus open? Coz I love how wide the front cover display on one plus open compare to the narrowness of Z Fold series 😅
@@yudhadinata5277 Yes, I hope they dont delay it like Honor magic v2. But you never know. The front cover display is wide and thanks a lot that its not like Samsung z fold 5. The front screen is just like any other candy bar style phone which is a big big bonus. The biggest advantage is u r getting a bigger/Taller display compared to oneplus open and also light weight and 5700mAh battery which is just insane.
@@Cool_Saf They say it will launch officially in my country next month.. That means it will have the global rom right? U can't launch officially out side china without global rom right?
