I do not understand the appeal of these devices. Most of the time, it’s just a phone but twice as heavy and twice as think.
Then every blue moon you make it into a small subpar tablet?
I commute by train everyday and having a tablet I can carry in my pocket is really convenient. I only recently got a Samsung Z Fold 4 but am loving it so far.
It’s for dads. For real, I just came back from South Korea and every dad had galaxy fold which makes sense as a family travel power phone. Only dads can pull off this absurdly awkward look of unfolding your tablet to take some off-angle pictures of a pine tree lol
For some people, even when have a phone, they still take pictures with a tablet
It’s the dream of just opening up your regular phone to have a small tablet, clashing with the reality that your phone will never be regular sized if you want it to be able to do this!
Maybe someday phones can be like 4mm thin, so doubling that for a foldable would be reasonable. But we are definitely not there yet.
I don’t get his comment that Pixel have accelerated aging. From my experience it’s the opposite.
I haven’t watched the video yet but that comment might be based on his experience with the buggy Pixel 6 Pro?
Most of what he discussed I could live with… except for such a poor battery life. 4 Hours screen on time? get out of here. that’s as laughable as Apple’s headset with up to an hour battery life LOL
4 hours screen on time is about what I get from my Samsung, that I’m trying to ditch.
And my issue with the Samsung isn’t battery life, it’s just the software. So I’m good with all of it lol
