      @technoleech Před 8 měsíci +3

      @@Gurenn83 good joke but I think you're missing my point , every brand is trying to refine their existing features and doesn't wanna go out of their comfort zone to try new things . For example when pop up cameras became popular , everyone tried their version of it - Oppo : find x opened the whole camera module for the front and back , did a shark fin pop up for their reno series . LG was quite good with this , lg wing , lg g5 . Moto did the same with their z series and different modules , heck even Samsung made phones with interesting features like those air gestures with the earlier versions of note , projector .
      These examples are a bit exaggerated when it comes to what I'm trying to say but the point remains the same . Brands just wanna keep it simple and bland and not risk their sales . Huawei is a good example, they didn't do as much but their small innovations made huge impacts on other brands and they were forced to keep up , this kept the price competitive and other brands were trying to keep up with their version of something new

    I really wanted to u get the Magic V2 as my foldable upgrade to my 3-year-old Galaxy Fold2, but unfortunately I'm in the US and there was still no global release date confirmed by HONOR for that, so I decided to go with the OnePlus Open, which does check off a lot of the same boxes. Its definitely not quite as thin as the Magic V2, but comparing it side-by-side with my old Fold2, its definitely noticably lighter. The Open has a 20:9 outer display so, similarly to the Magic V2, its very usuable when folded; it just feels like a normal phone. It's SUCH an upgrade if you're used to a Samsung Fold to be able to comfortably use the phone when folded that there's no hesitation never to look back. I did really enjoy my Fold2 for the last 3 years, and when I got it, it was revolutionary to me to the point where now I don't know if I could ever go back to normal candybar smartphones anymore... but products like the Magic V2 and the OnePlus Open/Oppo Find N3 (they're the same phone, but you'll be getting the Oppo variant in China) can affirm that thought

In addition the Purse is lighter and thinner than the V2. Great video by the way.

    Why isn't the inner screen as bright as the outer screen?

    I was going to buy an Honor Magic v2 fold but it doesn't come with Google Play Store, a phone so good and without Google Play Store It's not for me because of that

    i don't understand why people want a normal fold that unfold to a tablet that's what i like from zfold's the front screen is great for one hand use.
