    Great two part Fold 4 review! Question: do we need hinge protection when we look for cases? Or is the hinge built strong enough to withstand unintentional drops? Thanks!

  • @IkesTechTalk

    @IkesTechTalk

    Ummm that one is tough. I've personally never put any hinge protection on mine, but that's a personal risk I'm fine with taking. I've never seen anyone break a hinge from a fall, but it can scratch and dent if it falls the right way.

    @IkesTechTalk got it! Thanks for the insight--- the hinge of the Fold4 looks very durable. I guess, if travelling abroad--- go with the rugged case--- and if in town/the US (near Verizon), then no hinge case should be fine...

My only problem is when it's closed and I'm trying to send a text because I have the tech 21 case the case gets in a way but when I am home and I don't have a case it's actually fine. But that case that you have from later actually looks really good I might get that for when I'm home

    Using it for a couple months and I'm not disappointed but I think this is for a true tech enthusiast and I think it would go towards a different croud from mainstream cause real daily consumer would look at this as to much but the flip might be more for the basic crowd

    I'm conflicted on the front cover screen. Definitely ALOT of typos but it's something I feel like we will all get used to. Coming from a s21 ultra it's microscopic compared. However , this phone is hands down the BEST I've ever owned. Usually I snag the best flagship "ultra or plus" after the z fold experience tho I'll never switch back. Video / picture editing is a JOY on the fold! 1 month update: STILL ALOT of typos 😆

    @U Me also I have the Samsung standard cover they designed for it with the s pen . I can NEVER go backwards without rapidly swiping the back swipe gesture. Due to lack of room because of the case. Half the time I accidently click something when I do this. It's annoying. Other than that the phone is amazing.

    @HerbGrowingLegal My relative has a standard and said that you should still be able to customize your screen in settings or labs. He also said that you should still be able to tap the 3 dots on your keyboard screen and resize your keyboard or typing in your settings search bar "how to increase keyboard size." My phone is cased, and I have the screen set to the case sensitivity, and I have the lab function for typing accuracy. Either way it goes, there is a keyboard screen resize setting while your phone is folded. But like you said, either way it awesome.

    Generally I got between the S22U, Fold 4, Pixel 7 Pro, and 14 Pro Max. I know a lot of people feel the same way you do about the front screen. Here's hoping they make it a bit wider. I also know Google's rumored foldable will have a wider front screen, it'll just be a bit short
