The new Pixel Fold is Googles first foldable phone, with an outside screen size of 5.8" and an inside screen that measures 7.6", that looks great for reading or watching videos. Google's computational photography brings great pictures with features like face unblur, magic eraser and night mode. But there are two major factors that may deter potential buyers.

No, it's not a gimmick. Sometimes you want a huge display to view content, and sometimes you just want a regular sized display. It's nice to have both in one device.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

That is how I feel too. Why wouldn't you want both if durability and price weren't an issue. Thanks for watching.

@firehazardfox159 Месяц назад

It's a gimmick for now bc it's still new technology that's their trying to put in phones Hopefully in the future it becomes a feature of newer phones

I love the foldable form factor as an artist/ designer. I was about to replace my iPad and iPhone but Google missed with no stylus at 1800 😅

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

I can see the benefits for an artist/designer. To have a foldable on hand for when ideas pop up or work needs done on the go. That is a great point about no stylus support.

@ahmadkaien 9 месяцев назад

You can use a regular stylus. Not sure if you’d get the same functionality in terms of drawing if you do on a flexible screen but you can def do some drawing

@wakanda4eva 10 месяцев назад

The pixel fold is dope. Im loving it. Who dont need or dnt have a tablet. This is a good phone and a tablet. Best of both worlds. And it does have spen support on both inner and outer screen. Wouldnt use a sharp one on inner screen doe, just for caution.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

Glad to hear you are enjoying yours. I am with you on the best of both worlds. Thanks for watching and sharing your experience.

@gparizek156 10 месяцев назад

Very good review!

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

Thank you very much. I appreciate you watching.

@Dr_Cole 10 месяцев назад

First, Craig, this is a great macro level review. Your ability to set aside free procurement reviewer mode and go into regular user mode is very important. While I suspect it is easy to do, few specifically do so. Second, I believe foldable phones have a long term future ahead of us. They may even become the largest class of smartphones at some point, at least until there is a flexy stretchy type of display that we can form into anything each time we use it. My limitation is that I am deep in the Apple ecosystem. So, until Apple launches one (probably two years before my prophecised flexy stretchy screen comes out!), I am unlikely to make the switch.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

Thank you very much. I try to do my best to see it from a real customer standpoint. I thought this one is really important at this price point and with the durability. I am with you on foldable being the future. Why wouldn't you want a tablet on hand with your phone. I am like you and deep into the apple ecosystem. I cannot wait until Apple makes one. I do enjoying using google and this phone, but I still want a foldable iPhone. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the nice comment.

@Abthebest13 10 месяцев назад

ive had this phone since release. the outside screed. is the size that absolutly every phone should have. perfect size

Does the phone overheat? Hows the battery life?

@tonyholmes9024 10 месяцев назад

I have the Z fold 4 for about a year now and I work in a dirty environment and take it to the beach regularly with no issues.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

That is great to hear that it has held up well. It is easy to get scared with these devices.

@Truid 10 месяцев назад

A lot of buyers remorse in here. The review broke it down wonderfully. Apps not being optimized, the large bezels, and the phone not folding completely are all deal breakers. And for $1800? Not even batting an eye at this generation. Maybe next time

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

Thank you very much Truid, I appreciate it. I can appreciate what you are saying. this is a great start. If the second gen is more like Samsungs fold, it will be great.

@garethjones5068 10 месяцев назад

What’s the video quality like out of this? That seemed to be a weak point in previous Pixels

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

I hope you are well Gareth. Good to see you. I don't think the video quality keeps up with iPhones. The photos are really processed. Where I think apple relies on the hardware to create the look. I might be totally wrong.

@DjangoGroen 10 месяцев назад

i love it. but i would rather buy the z fold 5. feels more premium. better build. and i hate those big bezzels. i dont care about the small and long front display. i see it as a tablet that i can also use as a phone. but i before i buy i just want the high end camera. :/

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

I can respect what you are saying. Samsung makes great phones. I think they make the most premium android phones. Thanks for watching.

@Blqman989 9 месяцев назад

It’s a foldable phone, it’s common at this point, the price is in line for a foldable phone.

@augustaborn9034 9 месяцев назад

The only reason I haven't gotten a foldable phone is because I think the crease would bother me

@Ambassador-J4209 9 месяцев назад

I'm watching from my z phone 5 waiting for the Pixel 2 so I can trade it in

@bad65dad 10 месяцев назад

Jerry Rig put sand between the inside display and it survived. The price is 900.@ Att no trade in and 800 at T Mobile

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

I did not see that one. I will have to check it out. Those are great discounts.

@bobriemersma 10 месяцев назад

I like what Samsung has done, making phones pocketable again. Prices are far too high though, and I worry about lifetime.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

Hey Bob. I hope you are doing well. Samsung is making beautiful phones. I appreciate how they keep moving the cellphone market forward. You are right about the prices. Have a great day Bob.

@mpolisi86 8 месяцев назад

What about compared to an iPhone 13 mini? JW

@CraigsTechTalk 8 месяцев назад

I would get the iPhone mini. I say that as someone who is firmly in the Apple ecosystem. I like using Android, but it does have roadblocks in my work flow compared to my iPhone and other Apple devices. The second reason is that the screens are too fragile. I don't mind the crease as much as the durability of the screen.

@biobrolly 10 месяцев назад

I love my pixel fold it's been the best I've had in a while. It does have some things that need improvement but which phone doesn't.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

That is great to hear. Glad you are enjoying yours. New product categories have growing pains.

You got a like as soon as you said "who cares" about the bezel. I'm so sick of hearing tech reviewers comment on that.

@DjangoGroen 10 месяцев назад

same, i fucking care. i'l go samsung any day of the week on the foldable.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

I appreciate you Ryan. It really bothers some people. I will give Samsung credit for really getting their bezels down. Thanks for watching.

@MrMystri 10 месяцев назад

Definitely no gimmick here,. Apple is the gimmick with the same rubbish every year minus new innovation. Kudos to Google.

TEAM FOLDABLE (as long as they keep the passport form factor and don't hotdog bun their phone like Samsung did)

@left0verture 10 месяцев назад

Too rich for my blood. It’d be nice to have the option of a larger screen, but until they’re thinner, lighter and less expensive, I think I’ll keep my foldable money in my pocket.

@CraigsTechTalk 10 месяцев назад

I love the foldable money in your pocket. 🤣 I think that is a great idea. Give it 2-3 years and it could be a whole different game.

@Ninzazus 10 месяцев назад

@StevenYoungcaptual 10 месяцев назад

Gimmick . Too expensive. I'm stuck in the Apple family.

@bad65dad 10 месяцев назад

No Gimmick awesome production and I've got 2 years old Z Fold 3 also very good for work and play with the pen only at 850.00 and the Pixel Fold at launch 900 Att no trade in and 800 T Mobile. Only things are gimmicks when apple doesn't sell them.

@RJ_Uploads 10 месяцев назад

Lol it's a gimmick since 2017-18 they have been making foldables for a minute now, so until Apple makes one then it will cease to be a gimmick right...😊

@RJ_Uploads 10 месяцев назад

I have taken this phone to the beach with no problems and I took the screen protector off of mine and the display looks a ton better, and no you won't void your warranty. I talked to Google support about it.

@juniasdityenbeger4506 9 месяцев назад

imagine it as buying a phone and an ipad mini in one device which easily comes out to the same price as a pixel fold/ z fold, and the z fold's pen doesn't even cost an extra $100
