Where is the xiaomi 14 ultra review ?
Loads of thanks ben, can't wait for your great vivo x fold 3 pro vs one plus open
Fast and reliable reviews without any boring chatter. That is why I click the like button all the time. 👍
Thank you
He's GOATed bro. No agenda or bias either
You right its true honest reviewer
I feel you bro. AD be chatting about nothing on all his vids. I tried to tell him on more than one occasion.
Relax p Diddy
One of the best phone reviewers on CZcams..Should have at least over a million subscribers..
there's a reviewer called Lim Review has same amount of subs, and he sucks big time choosing aesthetic over information. Ben's should have 1mil subs by giving us so much more.
You one of those types
So true! After watching lots of reviewers, Ben is just fantastic. A true nature of honesty and passionate way to show us the way 💯 👍 👏
Xiaobai tech review is the goat of smartphone review, geekerwan mostly test the chip, not the phone
4:59 man that one-handed opening is very smooth
Two hand it little buddy
Still rocking my X fold 2. Zero issues and no screen failures in one full year.
Trinity Electronics 🤜🤛 Ben
Thanks for the superfast coverage
You're the mvp of CZcams mobile tech channels.
The King of reviewing foldables! Thank you so much for your effort! Gboard split plus horizontal CZcams!?? Already imported! ❤
Hey, when your phone arrives could you check something out for me? I'd love to know if oldSchool RuneScape and youtube will work together split horizontally. I really don't want to order one and be disappointed by this, Cheers!
That image stabilization looked pretty good. Great looking phone and photos. That’s for the quick review!
Please include the software in your review when you had time to test it further. The hardware seems great, but software matters just as much to me. Thank you Ben, I always appreciate your unbiased videos.
Does it wiggle when you put it open on the table? How many system updates does Vivo provide for this device?
I always enjoy your videos, Ben. Always so thorough and honest, just the right length. Plus your voice and accent is really music to my ears, could listen to you all day
Thank you
Awesome quick unboxing and hand on review as always Ben's brother
Thanks for your review Ben, I can't believe this phone almost weighs less than the Samsung S24 Ultra! Truly an incredible foldable phone with specs that are flagship quality with a huge battery too. Can't wait to see the Vivo X100 Ultra in May!
I love your channel Ben! Looks like a really competitive foldable device. Waiting patiently for the in-depth review!!
Always interesting content, cool visuals, good voice and all around. The fact that I enjoy my Vivo x100 Pro as a professional photographer, and that Ben seems to enjoy its camera as well, surely is a plus 😊 Thank you Ben!
Thanks Ben! This one appears to be a well packed beast no doubt. Vivo... what a story! From midrange average to top notch foldables with highest specs to date!
Good review as usual, no silly assumptions and to the point.
I've been waiting for your video on this phone. The 1st English speaking hands on review for XF3P. Thank you so much for your efforts!!!
Please stress on the zooming on this camera. I'm upgrading from a x fold +
Finally a review on X Fold 3 Pro which i can understand... Cant wait for in depth review 😊
Exactly the video I was waiting for! Thanks for the review.
Nice review Ben - can't wait for the camera testing
Great as ever Ben thanks for sharing 👏😎
Thanks, Ben. Looking forward to the full review. I'm particularly interested in the battery life.
Chinese manufacturers forcing the Apples and Samsungs to innovate. Very close to buying a Vivo phone now.
Chinese companies like One plus and Xiaomi are worried from ZTE/Huawei ban.
All they have to do is ignore US market and focus on global dominance in EU/Australia
Unfortunately it's not forcing Samsung to do anything Samsung will still rip us off with the z fold 6 and still make more money than any company because Samsung makes all the screens for these phones if you buy the vivo x fold 3 pro you just bought Samsung screens
What do they innovate ? They just enable the hardware, while the software isn't optimized. With the way they treat the charging most likely the hadrware wont last long as well hence it meet their goal on consumerism.
They are good at first launch but I do notice most of them do not update software regularly nor they recognize any defect...
Great review looking forward to a full review and comparisons with the other foldables. Foldables are on top of my wish list for my next phone but just to expensove right know I hope for a good used phone market in 2-3 years or a good paying job by then.
i preordered mine. cant wait for it to arrive
Great review as always. It's funny how when we get a phone these days, more often than not, the first thing we check is the camera
Clear and Crisp review 🎉.. Happy to see the new Phone.. looking like a good prospect..
Thanks for the Hands-on video. Eagerly waiting for the full review.
Hi ben. I'm from India. I watch your videos whenever u post. My 1st video was 3 Features I Love About OriginOS 3 on Vivo X90 Pro Plus....
I hope u'll read comments since u do most of the time.
Cuz of the vivo content & I'm a fan of origin OS. I switched from my IQOO Z5 to the Chinese variant of the Vivo X100pro on December before the official release. The phone is a solid 10 to me since I'm coming from a mid range category. So i spend almost 4 - 5 hours customizing the phone and found out some things. the most i like is the functional widgets and animated wallpapers with weather effects , time of the day etc.. The app colour icon which matches the wallpaper doesn't work with the global apps or apps installed from play store, F- droid etc. The Chinese apps have full support and control over the colour of the apps icons that match with selected colour scheme / wallpaper colour, The next thing the Icons are dual tone only. a colour mixed with white. there is no way u can have only single colour for the app in the colour selecting area (Mood Cube). Only when you change the Window style to Mono and set the icon colour to adaptive u get the expected icon color that is not satisfying much. Then the google support is limited. As many know android auto wont work. The nearby share / quick share also wont work. I still have a doubt that the google wearables will work.
Please ben I'm requesting you to make a video on how it feels to use Origin OS outside China. From the setup and comparing with other android skins.
Hongkong is beautiful!.
great first look, you must be one of the first in the world to get one, looking forward to your review.... thank you,
Love all your videos bro, because you always say the truth about any smartphone you review
Wow i was dreaming of this phone since last year, now it come with amazing surprise, how i wish i have the money to buy the phone, am inlove with the phone, great review, one love ❤❤❤
Love your reviews man ❤. You deserve more subscribers!
their originOS supports global apps better than some global roms of other brands and yet they still don't want to release it globally
Love this guy reviews.
Thank you
Best tech reviewer on CZcams hands down, no BS and unbiased. Oh and from my home town HK❤!! Subscribed!!
Is Trinity Electronics in Sincere House? Thanks!
thank you
the transition so smooth
is crazy for androidphone
Awesome piece of kit! Went savin' :)
Looks great! I like the new design of Vivo!
Straight to the point vivo need to release this phone global
Great review Ben.
It'll come to my country soon so excited to see a comparison between this and oppo find n3
@Ryanbackup3 Indonesia, so yea there's a possibility that this will might come globally as well
Thank you for this review ! Do you know how many android updates are planned for this phone ?
Stunning video and photos. That vintage looks is gorgeous especially in Asia. I've seen your photos from Japan and Hong Kong and they look amazing.
I see think the lights, small food places, red lanterns etc, in general more use of colour and quantness, take suits that filter..
It would also do well in Europe with the older parts with narrow streets and smallish shops. But the US and UK cities are not pretty at all so might not be as nice.

Hey man. I love your videos! you're my go to guy for foldables. Thank you so much for the amazing content.
What are your thoughts on this Vivo vs the latest Oppo and Honor foldables?
Looks awesome. Fantastic hardware and software, and in my opinion the first foldable that dethrones last year´s Huawei's mate x5 as the best foldable at the moment, and its also considerably cheaper. Well done. Can´t wait to see what Huawei comes up with this year, especially if they do release the rumored triple foldable device.
As a vivo fold owner. You had me on youtube in horizantal😂😂
First foldable review I've watched and nicely done. When you're using the camera app and filming at belly button level, can you choose to have the app occupy the bottom half of the screen so you can look down on it to preview video with the phone folded to 90 degrees? If so, I would imagine one half of the screen can be used as a screen hood when shooting above your head!
Nice review as always. This really grow on me but I am wondering if the notification still delayed or keep opening to get a notification? Coz now I'm still using Vivo X Note but it a little tickle me with this 😢
Great video. Would be great to see a comparison between that phone and the OnePlus Open.
I love your video style! Can you make a comparison of the Vivo X Fold3 Pro and the Oppo Find N3 focusing on the OS and camera system?
Oh man.. Such a beaut! Coming to global markets? Let's hope so 😁
Camera looks good. Fantastic review.
thank you
Great review Ben. 👍, can you please let me know how good are the speakers? Are they better than the galaxy fold speakers?
Great hands on review! Does it have USB C DisplayPort video out?
nice review as always. how much is the vanilla x fold 3
Awesome review as always. 😅 I switched from Fold5 to OnePlus Open. Now after watching your video. I want to switch to this vivo fold now 😂
Nice review Bro ❤
Thanks bud, great review I just ordered one from Gizmo, trying to find a good case for it, any recommendations
Best review like alway sir
Thank you
Thank you for your review. I'm still using my vivo x fold 2 and don't intend to get a new phone till at least 2025 but I'm excited for what folds will be available next year. They're improving so much, except Samsung of course.
I like it a lot. Still waiting for a foldable with 1 inch type sensor. Just wondering which brand is going to be first to implement this. Thanks for the review Ben. Great content as always 😊
I think should be Huawei
Ben is back another banger.
Thanks for the review, Ben.
I made up my mind to buying Vivo phone. Should I get the Vivo X fold 3 pro, or wait for the Vivo x100 pro+?
of course wait for the pro plus
nice looking phone ben cheers from serbia
Hello @bensgadgetreviews - thanks for the great review, also with the Google stuff - is it possible to get Android Auto runnable? Does the Google backup (apps, settings..) to GDrive work? Thanks in advance
Looks so amazing just they really screwed up on only 3x zoom. Could have been fold of the year otherwise. Now we have to look toward the mix fold 4!
Definitely looking forward to the full review on this one though!
I couldn't resist the battery size charging speed and the ip X8 water resistance on a top end Chinese foldable I ordered from trinity electronics as you mentioned them in other videos they clearly have got stuff in stock early, I'm looking forward to your review hopefully before it gets here I hope this wasn't too hasty there's hardly much more else that u boxing vids besides this. I have a mix fold 3 and the software situation to use my wear os watch had me unlock and install a custom paid rom and the earpiece volume levels are practically unusable since I got the phone it's the biggest hindrance as well as the lack of ip rating.
Thanks for this
Wacthing on my 1+open 🔥
would there be a global ROM for this ? great hands-on review
Thanks Ben.
Great review... I didnt know your channel.. subscribed... I have a Vivo x60Pro since 3 years..never a problem... ill be flying to china next week and will love to buy this phone.... You mentioned that you were able to install google apk... Will android auto works? Any other limitations as i plan to use this in Europe? Thanks
I'm about to buy samsung fold but after your review on vivo and oppo, I probably take vivo
thanks for your info .
Thank you covering all the Chinese tech releases as well coz most of the other youtubers don't really do that
I'm really excited about this foldable! I totally agree the 2nd foldable was a disappointment but not on this one. I am really curious if it is worth paying the extra money for the Pro version.
This looks so good! I'll have to wait until my z fold 4 fades a bit more 😭
I was waiting for it! ⌛️ #FinallyHere #CantWait
The case looks well designed! Theres a lot of thin and light cases that simply snaps on the body but ignore the hinge. Other cases that do look more like otter cases.
Can you review about its multitasking capabilities with multiple apps...
I really wish you or someone could do a full overview of Origin OS as a whole, since it is a really nice UI skin, just available to CN. (Could really help out for those who are looking to import Chinese variants into other regions too!)
The vintage filter
Thank u, man
That camera 😮
Hi there, I've just bought it and I'm looking forward to receiving it!!! I'm a little bit worried about the problem of delayed notification on chinese phones...what do you think about it?! Thanks. I'm waiting for the full review!!!
A camera comparison between this phone and oneplus Open and Galaxy Fold 5 would be amazing 😉
Does this one allow you to have a different set up on the cover screen than the inner screen?
Waiting for your detailed review . Before I buy one. .
I love vivo, been used x90pro+ for long time, still love it but lots app in US don't get notifications, so I switched to oneplus open, if this vivo fold fix the notification issue I will get it 100%
Does Vivo update the older fold phones software with the updates they have for this model? Price is not bad but the software support needs to be there as well
When is this coming to Europe? Expected price?
Hey Ben, long-time fan here. So, I just decided to pick up the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro to replace my Pixel Fold as my daily driver. I like the Pixel Fold's form factor when its closed but to me it is too weighty and feels like a brick in my pants when I'm walking around with it. I was originally thinking of getting the Fold 5, but just am not a fan of the tall/narror profile when it is closed as well as the non-flagship cameras on it. I also looked at others like the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 and the Mate X3 but settled on this bc I was looking for a foldable that can split apps vertically as well as horizontally like the Fold can as well as having good cameras. Throw wireless charging & this being IPX water resistant/dust resistant and I am sold. I picked up a 1TB black version via Giztop(I looked into Trinity Electronics but wasn't sure what their warranty policy is) which is CRAZY EXPENSIVE but once I get this and transfer everything over I'll sell my Pixel Fold to recoup some of the loss. Thanks a lot for another DOPE video. 📱📱🤳🤳🔥🔥
Does the china rom still have issues with notifications? The aggressive power management and various work arounds made it a chore with the x fold 1.
Does it work on Canada's networks? This looks awesome. In Canada we always have least amount of choices when it comes to buying a smartphone.
Ben, is there any issues with GPS reception overseas with Vivo Chinese rom?
Hi, when are you coming with a full review on this phone? Planning to exchange my vivo x100 ultra for one of these and I'm a little bit unsure due to lack of good info like you give 👍
I ordered last week when it was being released, hopefully it will be here soon. Btw, did originos fixes the notifications problems for some apps like WhatsApp? Thanks Ben
Yes it works for me
I am surprise Vivo did not send you a review unit.
I wonder how Origin OS optimizes for foldable usage. Does it offer anything like Oppo "Canvas Shift" experience?
Ben, how does this Vivo X Fold 3 compare to the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3?
You think it's worth upgrading to the x fold 3 pro from the OnePlus open here in the US? I have a Samsung s24 ultra that I have my main sim in and use mainly because of the camera. My open I use as a complimentary device at the moment and use my mobile hotspot to give data to the OnePlus open.
