[SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FOLD 4 REVIEW]
For the past forty days, the Samsung Galaxy Fold 4 has been my calendar; my camera; my Kindle. It’s been my journal; my hotel-room juke box; my little East River ferryboat mini laptop. And of course: it’s been my phone.
It’s true that most smartphones are that multifaceted in 2022 - but the Galaxy Fold 4 is different. Because it’s more than a phone: it’s a foldable. And as a result, it does most of those jobs better.
I’m Michael Fisher. Find out why I’m still excited about Samsung’s most iterative Fold yet, in MrMobile’s Galaxy Z Fold 4 Review!
CORRECTION The Fold 4 has an IPX8 rating for water resistance ONLY, not an IP68 rating (which would include dust resistance). MrMobile regrets the error.

@agactual2 Рік тому

I've said on these videos numerous times that I wasn't fully convinced when it came to folding phones. Then I was able to take advantage of a promotion where a Fold 4 was only $800. I got one and I was wrong. Folding screens are absolutely the future. It's the first time in the last decade that I feel like I have something new and exciting. Once thr price comes down, these folding phones are going to be everywhere.

I'm thinking that apple will come on stage some day , say iPad and iphones don't have to be different devices and then announce their own version of a rollable that looks amazing all the time But I'm hoping this time samsung can use its advantage to withhold that as apple's version will most definitely be the most popular

i switched from a 13 pro to this and im still getting used to it, but i am bloody loving it. Been such a great change. If there is a massive update in the next fold, ill be staying with Samsung. Even their pre order bonus here in Australia is amazing, got the galaxy watch 5. Apple never does anything like this! The only thing i would want better, is better selfie cameras on the front and big screen. Still have a lot to get used to, so i can get the most out of it, but been the best change.

@Maxr1998X Рік тому

Happy to see your review is finally out. I was waiting for it patiently ^^ I've been using the Fold 4 for a few weeks now, and I absolutely love it, and very much agree with your review. I don't use the split screen feature as much as I'd like yet (I'm still not completely used to it), but for many other tasks the main screen has been absolutely fantastic and a considerable upgrade from ordinary phones. It's especially obvious when reading articles or browsing the apps for websites that are less optimized for mobile screens (or when the mobile version of the site is inferior). It is, however, as you said, very heavy, and every so often my hands get tired, even when holding it with two hands. When I pick up my old Pixel 5 after that (which is really light even for its size) I'm always quite surprised. Additionally, some apps really don't use the foldable screen very well yet. A lot of that is of course on app developers, and we can only wait for them to improve their apps while Foldables get more and more popular. Occasionally, the software on the Fold 4 also caused inconsistencies themselves confuse and slightly annoy me. E.g., Telegram, which normally has a split screen on the inner screen, sometimes shows the single panel phone UI. (I actually prefer that for Telegram at least, since typing messages feels a bit easier that way - for other apps, I like the split mode, that's why I don't want to disable the system setting.) It's also a bit frustrating that the multitasking app bar doesn't work if you use a 3rd-party launcher like Niagara Launcher. To my knowledge, there's no reason for that, since stock Android 12L supports it just fine. Thus, this must've been a deliberate decision by Samsung. Btw, I haven't figured out yet how to use the cover screen if the phone is slightly folded open, like you do at 2:05. Is there maybe a setting that I'm missing? Lastly, my Fold 4 also sometimes makes that weird sound when I open it. It sounds like the screen protector is coming off any moment, but visually everything looks and feels fine. Generally, compared to my friend's Fold 3, the hinge mechanism feels like a slight downgrade honestly. The missing gears (from what I've heard) mean the opening and folding is way less smooth and inconsistent. Otherwise, the better specs, better camera, and slightly bigger cover screen are of course much preferable. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and giving such an informative and interesting review!

@HarmonicaMustang Рік тому

The Fold 4 is fantastic. I like the double thickness when folded as I have something to grip. A thicker case for my Note 9 I used previously was a must, as that thing slipped easily from my hand. But when opened, the thinness of what has become a tablet is premium. I got the Fold 4 starter pack for free on a discount, thinking how I loved the S Pen on my Note 9. But, I tend to leave the kickstand on nowadays. The Fold 4 replaced my tablet and laptop for watching UKposts and Netflix, and I can't get enough of the convenience of watching content on such a large screen, hands-free, then simply folding the kickstand, fold the screen and popping it into my pocket. Doesn't matter if I'm at home, on break at work, or travelling, I have the same experience wherever I go and I love it. What I also came to love is mobile games. I was a casual gamer with no dedicated console or PC for this purpose so I played on my phone every so often, but playing games unfolded is simply spectacular. I never realised how much I was missing with a standard smartphone screen. The Fold also has enough power to enjoy games on highest settings without breaking a sweat. In terms of productivity, being able to work on a few things at once anywhere, while watching UKposts, is great already, but then being able to just fold it into your pocket is where it's at.

At last! Thanks to your long term reviews I was eagerly wanting a Fold. Last year I tried the Flip but returned immediately because the horrendous battery life. This year and thanks to Samsung's amazing trade in deals, finally got my first Fold an there's no turning back. I concur with all the positives you mentioned and definitely it changed the way I use my devices. I even have Galaxy Tab S7 plus that gets less and less use everyday. I'm into the Fold and there's no turning back, now I found every other phone boring, thnaks for your top notch work!

Good review! I have my Fold 4 for two weeks now and am loving it, too. I do not mind the 25 Watts charging. That is actually better for the battery. Since this is a phone I am planning to keep for more than two years, this is important. Using Outlook on the Fold is so great! Finally, you can see the mail you are answering on the left screen and do not have to scroll down all the time. Have been using it a lot for lesser complex email processing. But even those that require research are a delight to work on with this phone. You can have a website open, a PDF or anything and still write your mail on the right side.

@sephugus Рік тому

I have noticed a big difference between the new Fold 4 and my last year's Fold 3. The Fold 4 seems to be smoother and has a little faster reaction time. I had trouble with the SPen not wanting to work on certain spots on the large screen to bring up the on screen keyboard when typing a message or document. Samsung also fixed the problem on the front screen where the navigation buttons and a website's buttons were on top of each our in some apps. That was my real frustration with using the smaller screen. I hope that in the future Folds, the SPen will also work with the smaller outer screen since I came from having many Note phones. Once a stylus user, I always want to pick up a stylus.

Still rocking my ZFlip 3. After 13 months it's been honestly a pleasure. I love having a stand no matter where I am, I usually fold it just a bit then put it in landscape and like a card, it holds itself up so I can watch content. The cameras are ok but not for those who love photography. As for the durability, I haven't had any issues and I haven't babied it so I guess it's a little luck on my part.

It's narrow. Either for precise tasks, like typing (though this depends on the size of your fingers) and for certain apps that can't handle narrower aspect ratios than 21:9. It has it's advantage of course as it makes the Fold into a tiny one handed phone, but it still could be wider. Even with a better hinge design where the hinge mechanism is more tucked behind the screen.

Brand new fold user here. Got mine this morning. Here are some of my first thoughts. It's pricey but Samsung gives you a lot of freebies, makes the purchase experience more exciting. I got the earbuds pro, pen, fast charger and case. 2. Its heavy but it's not as bad as it sounds half the time. Usable. 3. The slim form factor makes it easy to hold the phone. But then the front screen is a little narrow. I wish we could have both. 4. This foldable idea is not a gimmick. It is super useful to have easy access to a big screen. It's super useful for a phone to be It's own stand. 5. The inside screen is not as fragile as I imagined. 6. Battery's shit. I think we are in the early stages of a really big thing here.

I got the Z Fold 3 the month it came out so right around 1½ years of daily use. And I've loved it. The well-known advantages are absolutely true. I love having a Kindle-sized reader in my pocket. Editing photos on a bigger screen makes it easier, and handing it to a friend to show the photo is a treat. Webpages, spreadsheets, games: all benefit from the increased real estate. The problem is, it isn't aging well. The screen protector started bubbling up a year in; minor at first, getting worse with time. And in this corner of Appalachia, the nearest repair facility is a couple hours'drive away. The hinge is showing its age also. It doesn't open/shut as crisply, not lie as flat as it used to. No grit, just age. Also, as a Note guy from way back, I miss having a Bluetooth stylus in a silo on the phone. I do use those little stylus tricks, my favorite being the ability to trip the shutter without touching the phone -.great for tricky zoom shots where any vibration would ruin the pic. Trading in on a S23 Ultra,. somewhat regretfully. But there's a lot of screen there, too. Maybe the Fold 4 solves some of these problems. Time will tell. No stylus-in-silo; I could maybe accept that, if all my other concerns are resolved.
