  • Folding phones have evolved quite a bit since they were first introduced a few years ago. Right now, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 is considered to be the most popular foldable smartphone on the market. In today's video, I want to share with you why I like the brand new Huawei mate xs 2, and also why I believe it has a better form factor than what we get with the Galaxy Z fold 4. Thank you very much for the support, and I hope you like this video

    Awesome review. Things I don't like about the form factor:
    1. The always-exposed folding display
    2. The exposed hinge area
    3. The uneven wear of the two screen halves
    4. No Flex mode
    5. The whole case on/case off thing
    I'm surprised they stuck with it.

    I have to disagree. A person would be insane to buy this phone. I find the design somewhat appealing but it's a flawed implementation. Ultra thin glass is not durable enough to remain exposed all day everyday. I can't see this phone lasting 6 months with normal everyday use.
    Lastly, the crease is not an issue. I've been using the fold for 3 years as my daily driver and not once have I said, "man this crease is in the way". I know this is said alot but it's the truth, I never notice the crease when I'm using it. Never. Would I appreciate it's removal, sure but increasing the durability of the inner glass and achieving full dust resistance rate much higher on my list.

    • @TKBay
      @TKBay  Před rokem

      I can definitely understand and see your point of view when it comes down to IP rating and the design of the z-fold that we have. I do think Huawei needs to make a case that does provide protection for the front facing display as well as keeping it exposed all the time is not necessarily the right solution. We have to keep in mind though that at $1,800 or $2,100 these are super specific user made devices and not everybody's going to be looking at them or accidentally ordering them. As long as you like what you have and the zfold 3 or the z-fold 4 meet your expectations there's nothing wrong with that. There will be some people that find this more appealing and some that will not even consider it. Thank you

    Personally, i would not want a foldable with an outerscreen to be the same size as a regular smartphone. To me, a foldable is better when it is a smaller footprint when folded so i can use it easily with one hand. This is more ergonomic and secure in my hand when I'm on the go. Afterwards, when i can focus on my phone and not on-the-go, i can unfold the phone to the bigger screen. To me, the Samsung foldable has it right.

    • @andyH_England
      @andyH_England Před rokem +1

      I feel the opposite. I use the outer display 60% of the time due to my workflow not needing a bigger display most of the time. So it is important that the outer display is similar to candy bar phones. So the Fold is a pain, even the Fold4, and I cannot imagine anyone will ever copy Samsung with this aspect ratio. All current foldable have much better outside displays, so Samsung is on its own here.

      Have to disagree, during a large portion of the day you'll be up and about every single time you have to interact with the phone outside of the quick short reply text , you're forced to unfold the phone due to the small or narrow cover display .having the phone appear as a normal phone but a media... multitasking powerhouse when it's not closed is where it's at .

      @@gcforreal To me, folded is for communication and unfolded for entertainment and productivity. Interestingly, you make the argument for my position. Regarding your phrasing, "forced to unfold the phone" makes it sound like a chore. Perhaps just a large candy bar phone is a more suitable device, like the Note 22 (S22 Ultra - name should have been in the Note lineup imo).

      @@CerealforProtein I am talking about the majority consensus, not subjective random users. Google was going to do a Fold ripoff last year but abandoned it for something more like the OPPO Find N, with a useable front display. They do their market research. The problem with Samsung is they have put everything into their take of the hinge and cannot admit that no one is buying it (other OEMs), so continue despite making no sense. I expect their minor change this year is admittance of their design flaw and next year we shall see them make something people want rather than have to live with.

    I hate how the smartphone market has now become Samsung vs apple now! Apple hardly innovates. Even the dynamic island thing was a rip off of huawei's (They patented it).
    And Samsung is also pretty much going the conservative way.. still better than Apple though. I wonder when will Samsung do something about the notch. They can learn something from Mi fold 2's aesthetics and Vivo Fold's camera. Huawei's design is just better, wastes less screen and with that case on, it should be good enough for low drops.. Those were the days when huawei bashed Samsung and apple in cameras and had a premium UI! Only Samsung makes good all rounders now. However Vivo has emerged significantly, gotta give them the credit..
