BUY PIXEL FOLD HERE FOR $843 ON AMAZON RENEWED! amzn.to/44p9CKt #affiliate

Had mine for a few months love it honestly despite shortcomings. My experience has been great coming from my pixel pro 6 it stands out and it's different. Battery life lasts all day easy I have no complaints honestly

I’m absolutely loving my Pixel Fold. I’m primarily an iPhone guy but haven’t put my main sim in the 15 Pro Max for months. The form factor is perfect for me and I get fantastic battery life. As far as the tensor G2 goes it does exactly as I need it to be, no complaints. I’ve got about 15 cases but the best case is the Google official case. Unfortunately it’s not available in Australia so I had to import it for $2800, so hopefully the Fold 2 will be available here.

I don't understand Google's smartphone team at all. You nailed it, it needs better parts. The same thing can be said about the Pixel Pro range. Maybe Google should just go back to the Nexus era and use an OEM that knows what the hell they're doing.

The Pixel Fold is my favorite phone this past year...I had and returned both the Oneplus Open and the Fold 4, I love the form factor of the pixel fold and if they change the dimensions of the Pixel Fold 2 then I will pass. Gonna keep this one for the supported life of the device.

Me too exactly. Both Samsung & OnePlus have miserably narrow front screens. Pixel Fold just the best. Now with Android 15 beta have "app pairs" natively.

What should happen is as an apology to all the the Google fold owners, they should give a bigger incentive if you are trading it a fold for more money on a pixel phone too

Boo hoo don't buy then

I have it. I like it. It's the closest I'm getting to a Surface Duo 3. However, I'm still upgrading it for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, especially if it has stylus support and one that's small like the S Pen.

I just got the 512gb on ebay for 650 ... was that a good deal, I use a phone casually and wanted a small tablet experience in one device

I've got a fold 4 I can get pixel fold with trade in for i phone 11 pro max for £852 do you think its better than the fold 4. Regards karl

What case was that you had installed on your phone during the video??

First foldable i had was the Z Fold 3 and i hated the outer screen. Second i got was a Duo 1 and loved it minus the camera. Now I have the Pixel Fold and am 100% happy. Perfect form factor for me

I'm thinking of getting one second hand selling for about less than 800 dollars with a fingerprint issue after the A14 update based on the listing, but I think it still need convincing if it's worth getting at this time. Any inputs would be great thanks

@superdotz Decided not to go with it, less hassle to try to fix the issues while spending around 800 bucks

A nonfolding phone that was the size of that outer screen would be pretty cool.

Thanks for the video, I bought this when it first came out & yes it was OVERPRICED. But overall I enjoyed it for the outer screen when it was folded, the UI, and the camera. However, for me it was just too heavy/unwieldy especially when you compared it to the Honor Magic V2(my back-up device). I was hoping the Pixel Fold 2 would be lighter, decrease the bezels on the inside of the phone when unfolded and put the flagship cameras on this, but according to rumors it sounds like they are going to go with the taller, thinner profile which is too bad. I ended getting a Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and selling my Pixel Fold. Samsung definitely has to do something different with the Fold 6 and I am looking forward to the Pixel Fold 2 because Huawei, OPPO, Vivo, Xiaomi are killing it hardware wise. I definitely don't see myself ever going back to a normal candybar phone again. 📱📱❤️❤️❤️❤️

Have you tried GrapheneOS on the Pixel Fold?

I got rid of my galaxy fold 5 for the pixel . Wow great device . Reminds me of the Microsoft duo the way it sits in your hand.

Yes I agree with everything you said. Except the battery issue, I've had great battery life with this phone.and it doesn't get hot. And for $1799 yeah that's bad.

It's a shame they are getting rid of this form factor. I have OnePlus, fold 4 and my fav is pixel fold. Love it. I would buy in a heart beat if they kept this form and fixed all the other stuff.

They need to add stylus support. I feel any foldable should have a stylus which is why I went with the Fold 5

I bought the fold but I'm definitely trading it in for what's coming out at Google I/o. I think it was a great concept device but I'm ready for the next step. Definitely hoping for an upgraded chip 🙏

I actually love how wide the main screen is, thats THE selling point compared to other flip phones for me. Right now its too expensive still so maybe after teh 2 comes out. They say the 2 will have a thinner outer screen, im not ok with that. just a stupid design idea from Samsung people don't want a sliver phone. so we shall see but im liking Googles designs most of the folding phones

Ive never had any battery issues with my pixel fold. It lasts all day and then some. It blows my z fold 4 out of the water. Battery on z fold is terrible for me. It gets a little warm sometimes but so does my z fold. So i dont understand the problems people are having. Im a pretty heavy user so its great for me. Im not getting the pixel fold 2. I got this because of the size and design. So maybe ill get the one plus 2 if they keep it wider and short like the first one.

With all the reviews, I skipped the Pixel Fold. Checked out the Fold 5 and 1+ and found both were very heavy and thick. Went with the V2. The V2 isn’t perfect but in hand it feels great.

It’s weird to have a cheaper phone that has Tensor G3 but this $1800 phone has the older G2. Google should wait! And I think they are now

Traded mine in for the ZF5. Best decision ever. Google has a long way to go on the fold!

Yeah they really nailed it but missed it at the same time😅 battery life definitely got better over time, however tensor isnt the best when you throw everything at it but as far as day to day gets the job done,gets very hot and sluggish though. No Stylist sucks, definitely vaild points however not a bad device for its first generation. Cant wait to upgrade to the fold 2! Hopefully it comes out before October though.

Iphone user who switch to fold as primary for like 6 months now. Trading my 7 Pro for it saved 400$. Ehhh but on a good note phone works amazing for watching content and gaming, social media and multitasking. No overheating. Yes the battery life could be better but i get about 8-9 hours . Deff should of got the 8 pro but im waiting on the 9pro. Even tho that s24 silver one is everything that i want... Im holding off biting my buying finger . I think eventually I'ma end up switching back to an iphone again and getting an ipad mini for the fold experience. Apple got me man .. especially now that emulation is a thing.

The cover screen is supposed to be good. The cover screen is the exact reason why I don’t use a fold 5. The way that I mostly interact with the phone is unusable in the tall-narrow mode. Texting on the narrow screen is a good way to test your patience. I don’t have enough patience to use it. The inside screen is made for media consumption, productivity, and the such. It’s not really a “Phone” screen.

Tensor 2 overheats for me. Once the tensor 3 was here it became second rate, even on the software front.

Miss your content

I've had mine for about a month. Bought it open box from Best buy for like $1200.00 in new condition. So far love it but totally agree with you about the price of it. At $1800.00 it's a ripoff not only because of the G2 but 12GB ram and only 256GB storage, like come on Google. I think if they were to at least come out with something like a G2.5 that has 16GB ram and/or make the CPU more efficient that would've help

I was very interested in the pixel fold last year. I was so hyped. But when they announced the price of $1,800. I said oh hell to the no. I just waited for the pix away pro.

I bought mine on release and other than heating up slightly when i use G.P.S its worked fine.... Where as my OnePlus open had a bit of a inner screen break 😢 but its just a more simple version of what Samsung does. I might say its an entree level folding phone where as samsung and OnePlus is more technical. 😅

Still holding on to my Surface Duo 2 until it probably breaks lol I'm currently keeping my eye on the Pixel Fold and the OnePlus Open.

I got this phone yesterday traded my fold 3 for $1000 off the google fold Verizon was having a deal. I was going for the fold 6 but its just too skinny to type anything when closed. The google fold just soo perfect wide and short. I would recommend it. It dosent have all the flashy stuff samsung have but i do like it

MKBHD reviews tech as is from a consumer perspective. If a device is bad and reviewers say it’s good.. do you really think they’d (the reviewers) would be relevant on KZread anymore. Yes the Pixel Fold has gotten better since launch but you can’t base a review on “promised” future patches. Reviews are based in real time as is when the reviewer has the device in hand. Because that’s the experience you’re getting and going to experience out of the box.

​@@JoshuaBrown-is8fbI see what you're saying. From what I remember, I believe MKBHD overall gave a positive review of the Pixel Fold despite its many weaknesses. But I don't think he's trying to make a bad product seem good because he's some "corrupt" KZreadr who wants to please these companies. He's been pretty transparent (especially lately) with his stance that if a product is good or bad, then he'll call it how he sees it. While I don't agree with his overall positive assessment of the Fold, it's probably nothing more than a difference of opinion rather than some sort of ploy of his to stay relevant on KZread.

Recently got mine for $700 and really have no complaints... But I would've never got it for full price.

Another 1 to the add to the list of why I continue to never buy 1st gen products.

I was at a Verizon store today with a friend getting his phone fixed and checking out the Pixel Fold and the Z fold 5. They didn’t even have a working display for the pixel fold just a dummy unit and the z fold 5 is just to narrow to justify buying. Also the sales rep had a pixel fold so I asked him about it. He said he liked it yet it’s clearly sitting in front of him on a wireless charging stand lol 😂 version is pretty pathetic in my opinion. Half of the display units didn’t even function or work to begin with.

I bought a fold and love the form factor and the phone runs nicely, but just the fact that Google put out a phone with a year old chip and then didn’t even care enough about it to give us any of the AI features is like a slap in the face. Most of the Ai features Google offers in the 8 and 8pro aren’t even done on device, so there really isn’t any reason why we couldn’t have at least gotten video boost and all that. The only way I’ll ever consider another fold from Google is if they offer an amazing deal to all of us fold 1 buyers to upgrade to the 2. Otherwise never again!!

I love my pixel fold. I actually think it's amazing.

Still think the microsoft surface duo form factor is the best....Yes no front screen but still acceptable because its 2 seperate displays.

I wanted one but I can't pay that much. I'm kinda cheap.

Nice!

When a foldable that has an internal stylus that works on all screens and an SD card slot. And battery life equivalent to the industry standard for flagships I won't consider buying. I can get 2 macbook airs for 1800$ I can literally buy a car for that money. Not a good one but still. These companies are insane offering less for more and until everyone stops being a professional compulsory consumer its not going to change.

Many thanks. Decided not to buy. Still 1399 in Europe now. Wait for Fold 2

It's become my daily carry. I like it over the 8pro. The 8pro is my camera phone.

If it had a stylus i would definitely buy it over the Zfold6.

I heard repairs are a nightmare. It's been super easy with Samsung

I really didn’t like the pixel phone. I was so disappointed that I returned it and got an iPhone 15 pro max after 3 generations of pixel. I since then have kept the iPhone and recently bought a pixel 8 as an extra phone for work and was reminded why I used to love the pixels so much!

The Pro Max was a no go for me. It gets too hot to the touch

Google going to make a HUGE blunder with the Pixel Fold 2, if rumors are true that they will destroy the perfect aspect ratio, by following OnePlus design with a narrow tall phone.

Unforgivable engineering flaw... You cannot turn the phone in a widescreen direction and still be plugged in because the plug is on The bottom. And it will not allow 180° rotation from there... I am stunned to think that the engineers doing their testing did not see this as a major problem. You can't plug it in and watch widescreen unless there's some way to keep the plug on the bottom from making it impossible to stand up

They will put the G3 in the Pixel Fold 2. With big companies, if it makes sense, they won't do it. 😂🤣😂

This was the biggest disappointment of 2023, I had the money put aside it’s a shame. Really nice build quality however I’ve seen the older generation with it and it really is a perfect phone for a light usage foldable, the basics and reading books. Just not for most people.

💪💪💪💪💪💪

I might looking into the pixel fold 2 , I'm just tired of Samsung as these bullshit cameras on the fold for the money that we are paying . I've been a Samsung user for decades but I'm getting I er the same bullshit year after year , z fold 6 same cameras as the 5 really

If the pixel fold 2 won’t be the phone introducing googles newest chip, it will still be a overpriced, outdated phone. I really hope, google gets the fact that their most expensive phone has to have their newest tech inside it.

I swear, if I hear a KZreadr say "camera" one more time. One, more, time.

worst foldable experience for me, coming from a z fold 3. Never buying a pixel phone again. Laggy, overheats, apps crashing, etc…

All this tenser 2 3 4 100 it just shows you dont need all this power in a phone, aka apple, lets say we have a faster chip or a slightly better camera it is all marketing BS, i still drive the pixel fold because it is a great all around phone, the 2nd will not be so good because google will bend the knee to make the masses happy,
