I gotta say and it's not every day I'm
this excited will has been promoting
this package around the studio I got
something coming in I got the best thing
coming in will do unbox therapy hand
delivered and delivered and of course
it's the plain envelope with the tape on
it and Kirk just brought some fresh hot
coffee
so of course Oh delicious this is the
greatest moment in YouTube history is
that how you said it
more or less
sure or or no was it internet history
the greatest day in internet history
will doesn't normally go to this extent
if you're not amped up now I don't know
if you ever will be why am i cutting it
there well we got Kirk's attention you
also you also don't know what it is no
only will but he said we're all gonna
really enjoy it
honestly that's what he said I'm not
lose making stuff up Oh in studio
it's the mate excess in studio foldable
I could never get my hands on the
original mate X it was the foldable that
for whatever reason it was the
unattainable foldable here in the studio
and would you look at that it's here
thanks to Willie do so shout out there's
some kind of a bumper case frame that's
on the very top right here foldable form
factor that I have not experimented with
it's not the clamshell folding in it
fault it's the out fold color
interstellar blue 512 gigs of storage 8
gigs of ram whoo all right greeted by
the device currently unfolded whoo this
is that is so different
so it folds is there a button do I just
begin to fold straight away I just fold
like this whoa
the galaxy fold never never felt like a
normal smartphone in its folded position
Oh Will's getting up the fold felt like
a thing that needed to be unfolded
you're gonna have some concerns you're
gonna wonder about durability because
all your display is on the outside so
this is a lot more day-to-day you're
living your life you're answering the
calls you're tapping the messages and
then you've got an extra moment of
relaxation you're about to enjoy your
content your unbox therapy your lieu
later you hit the button and then you go
into the small tablet mode at that
moment the galaxy fold is over here so
over here it really felt like the tablet
portion was the important one that was
the one that Samsung cared about first
and then the phone element the screen on
the outside the earpiece and whatnot was
an extra bonus it can do that in a pinch
you look at this particular
implementation and you realize that in
this folded form factor that's a lot
more like a typical smartphone it's
actually very similar in stance to well
this is the s20 ultra it's barely fatter
and it's a whole tablet in there we have
a camera array on the back there's 1 2 3
looks like 4 cameras this little switch
controls the unlock so you hit this
button and it sort of flings up to start
the process for you into the unlock
position and then back down into the
close position there oh we need power
all right so that thing is charging up
right now let's check out the other
items inside the package sim tool is in
there some paperwork there's also gonna
be your type C cable I presume a fairly
long USB type-c cable there's a headset
in the package
type C as well earbuds a power brick
supercharged power brick max 40 watts
okay there it is and once again this is
in phone mode and for B and for me this
is the most impressive part when you
pull your phone out of your pocket you
want to be able to use it immediately as
a smart phone you want to dive in there
you want to open it up you wanna have
the full smartphone experience straight
out of the pocket now a couple of
observations it's a bit heavier than a
typical smartphone and because the
screen wraps around the edge it's got a
little slip a little extra slip to it on
the back when you're using the front you
have nothing it's just blacked out it
looks kind of like the back of a phone
and then when you open it up there's an
animation and it just swings over to the
entire thing let's do that one more time
we close it and the opposite takes place
regular smartphone open big time it does
feel like an easier transition for me
because there was something odd with the
fold as cool as the fold was there was
something odd about needing to flip it
open or feeling the need to flip it open
for almost everything now they want you
to be able to reach the far edge of the
screen considering how big it is and so
on but it did feel like a compromise in
the folded format it's hard to say that
this isn't superior to this I mean it
should be pretty obvious Wow typing so
easy on here it's crazy I should show
you guys unbox therapy comm you can
actually browse all the videos in a new
format now kind of cool I never talked
about this but as you can see well you
got to fill me in here this doesn't
currently have the Google Play services
so I can't just install these you back
on you I getting a side load business
okay turn it up oh wow yeah something
called project sandcastle you got your
video your scrolling comments you've got
great all
specifically an iPhone 7 and there's a
some video footage in fact of this guy
from Forbes it really does feel like a
substitute for a tablet when you have it
unfolded in this form factor right here
now speaking of that well this thing is
not gonna this thing's not gonna be
cheap
right you tell them well what's the
price of this 2,700 2,700 dollars that
makes this one of the most expensive
production smartphones we've had on a
set it's incredible I should also
mention the fingerprint scanner is over
here on the side look at that lock if I
try on my index nothing thumb bang full
spec list it's a 300 gram device it's
eight inches in size when it's unfolded
diagonally measured the beauty when
you're folded up is now you are a six
point six inch smartphone which in 2020
is fully acceptable OLED display
unfolded it's 24 80 by 2200 folded it's
24 80 by 11 48 camera layout 40 mega
pixel wide f-18 16 megapixel ultra wide
f-22 8 megapixel telephoto f/2 for the
battery in here is 4500 milliamp hour
which is again fairly large how does
that compare well to the Galaxy fold
4380 okay so they're in the same
territory all right now let's give these
cameras a quick look why don't we by
default we're at 1x straight out the box
and you can touch these dots to slide
all the way in all the way up to 30 X
which Wow which I probably wouldn't use
3 X looks pretty usable hey will can we
get a thumbs up sir BAM
1x BAM and wide a nice variety there a
focal range is which is a must on a
flagship in this day and age I used to
only be a dream but now it's an absolute
must I like
the ultra-wide myself now what if we
flip around to the selfie we got to do
this you see how that works look at that
you see that magic oh that's a selfie
Jack I'm detailed in a detail-oriented
you're using the high-caliber camera
even for your selfie so this is a selfie
sleeper you don't have to have a mini
little camera and a hole punch on the
front that they just kind of put in
there as an afterthought wouldn't you
still have access to your other lenses
there we flip it around yeah we have we
have access to the full suite all my
beard hair oh my word
Wow tremendous detail o5x on that detail
we tombow ass beard for beard zoom in on
your own grill as they say as the kids
say they don't say that Kirk does but
he's not a kid he's 47 years old oh this
is really interesting if you just back
out of the app you got a mini version of
your single display and then you flip
the phone
interesting lots of different uses
different thought processes here what
about a video why don't we 60 FPS 4k why
don't we and we can compare this
actually to our previous video in which
did you I looked at the Edit after you
uploaded and he was orange or red or
pink or something hopefully that doesn't
happen here we're of course gonna find
out so by default 1x beauty mode is at 0
very well this is 1080p 60fps we have
will we have the dogs of course
Otis still wearing his fancy outfit who
knows he might keep picking it in from
the closet each morning you never know
doing it to this day there's well
hopefully he's the complexion to me it
looks good right now it looks good yeah
he doesn't
right now it looks good very detailed
many Ches many of the caves we are
shooting in and there's Jack he's moving
and grooving he's back in business it's
back on the job and of course we can do
a Kirk test in order to I don't know
just we did we did everything else so
it's a Kirk test and he's enjoying the
weather and he's normally standing
against this pole most of the day so if
you need to find him that's where he
normally is now we're gonna see him out
does he get out wide
okay the wide lens definitely gets a bit
softer but usable and then maybe we go
back we go back I kind of like this
thing
is that Alright and so you take a screen
in your and you're folding and you're
moving and you're grooving why you got
to reach for your laptop why you got to
reach for your iPad it's no Google Play
services you got a year you're living in
tweak town you got a side load your
stuff you got to be a bit of a nerd I
wish that wasn't the case but that's
just the state that's the State of the
Union in 2024 now who knows it may
change in the folded mode straight out
the pocket this is a more familiar place
for me to be it's much less of a
sandwich it does not feel like a
sandwich now I have nothing against
sandwiches Kirk does can't eat the bread
Lou I'm gonna break that thing I'm gonna
place it down if I'm gonna scratch it
I'm gonna shatter it you know what you
might you might very well I feel like
this phone this phone both of these
phones all these phones there are almost
three grand this thing's almost three
grand at this point you gotta treat it
like it's 3 grand if you're actually
gonna splurge on it you baby the thing
like I said you put it to bed on the
pillow it gets the nicer pillow than you
it gets the memory foam pillow it's not
a form factor that's tried and true it's
absolutely fringe and it should be
approached in that way it's the cutting
edge for a reason it's not for everyone
not everybody should be on that edge but
if you can be you end up having these
science-fiction experiences which there
that's one of the big reasons I signed
up for this gig in the first place and
got into it in the first place was to
have these types of experiences so from
that standpoint it's exciting to have
stuff like this show up that isn't like
everything else
um can we put this in the video on
Kirk's phone do it that's intense
alright quick a little quick extra here
I didn't install the case it kind of
looked flimsy but I actually think it
offers a tiny bit of protection here for
the one thing that might make people
nervous which is when you place it down
on the table this tiny little frame
light case gives you a bit of a ridge so
it sits on that instead of the screen so
that was included in the package I think
it it might be a good move you can't put
a huge bulky case on here but this
bumper at least gives you something
