WEBVTT 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.279 ah mother flippin flip we're gonna unbox 00:00:03.199 --> 00:00:10.320 a flippin phone today i'm comin into this as a complete flippin 00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:14.880 newcomer i've actually never used i don't think i've ever used a a galaxy 00:00:12.799 --> 00:00:19.279 fold either like a z fold like the big one and i've never used one of these 00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:24.080 either the smaller flippy boys i did have a motorola razor 00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:28.400 as you guys must have but i also had the even more impressive motorola sliver 00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:32.960 that one had itunes enough about that we're here to look at the samsung galaxy 00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:37.040 z flip four so i'm coming out as a newcomer i don't really get why you 00:00:35.440 --> 00:00:41.200 would want this but there are people who love it apparently i think i heard that 00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:44.879 it's the most popular folding phone in the world but uh we're gonna see we're 00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:49.360 gonna we're gonna take a look at this with the fresh pair of eyes it's got an 00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:54.559 icon of a backpack and then warranty repeating over and over 00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:56.960 well i'll have to trust dbrand bro that 00:00:54.559 --> 00:01:02.399 this uh skin protects the flip from drops and scratches and such because i 00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:08.320 i'm a bit of a dropper of phones and that's all i'm gonna say 00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:12.080 um okay in the in the case that's what is that all we have there's definitely 00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:15.040 nothing else in here okay we do have some extra goodies 00:01:13.520 --> 00:01:21.520 we got okay this is just a booklet telling you 00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:24.320 to do stuff very cool a USB-C to c 00:01:21.520 --> 00:01:29.439 charging cord no charger in the box you fools and onto the phone itself so this 00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:33.759 uh design is apparently very very similar to the flip 3 that came out last 00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:37.600 year but they've just kind of like done some refinements i think that the bezels 00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:42.320 are a little bit smaller the actual thickness is less thick 00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:47.520 and i believe that the cameras uh protrude out a little less but again 00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:52.159 newcomer i don't really have the context for this so i'm gonna give you the 00:01:50.479 --> 00:01:59.200 straight up raw experience of someone who's never used a flip phone before here we go let's flip it before i even 00:01:55.600 --> 00:01:59.200 look at anything else how does it feel 00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:05.600 just before we go any further i don't understand what the point of this is you 00:02:03.520 --> 00:02:09.039 have a phone that's nice and thin it fits in your pocket and then what are 00:02:07.360 --> 00:02:11.920 you gonna do with it you're gonna you're gonna double the thickness it fits 00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:16.239 better it doesn't okay look at that 00:02:14.239 --> 00:02:20.879 i'm standing here i don't even know that the phone's there to be honest it's so 00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:24.800 thin now i'm gonna fold it in half oh i got this big weight in my pocket 00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:28.080 look at this you can see it it weighs the same 00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:32.640 yeah but it's more it's denser it's dense now look you can see it protruding 00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:37.040 i don't want things to protrude at me now that we've established that uh let's 00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:41.840 uh look at the exterior of the phone you know what this is funny i've heard so 00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:43.599 much about the front glass and how 00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:48.400 far they've come but like with the screen off that crease in the middle is 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:51.920 super noticeable and like maybe i won't notice it as much when the phone is 00:02:49.519 --> 00:02:57.200 actually on but anyways we got the front of the phone with samsung's you know 00:02:54.239 --> 00:03:00.800 their own folding glass uh situation with a i think it's got a screen 00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:06.800 protector on it but they do have gorilla glass victus plus on the back uh display 00:03:03.760 --> 00:03:08.640 here on the right side we've got a power 00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:11.840 button that also looks like it's a fingerprint reader yep that is a 00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:18.239 fingerprint reader on the side there next to the volume rocker on the top we 00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:20.959 got a microphone i guess on this side 00:03:18.239 --> 00:03:26.640 sim card tray that's not a dual sim speakers on the bottom usb type-c 00:03:23.760 --> 00:03:30.560 2.0 which we spotted on the specs which is interesting i would i would expect 00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:34.080 that you should have like at least 3.0 sometimes you have to make sacrifices to 00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:37.599 have a completely unnecessary feature that doesn't make any sense i'm not a 00:03:35.519 --> 00:03:40.480 hater this is the most popular folding phone in the world how does that make 00:03:39.040 --> 00:03:43.840 sense is it is it is it people buying it 00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:50.799 because they want to put it in their purses moving on we have uh i guess two other mics at the 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:56.799 bottom there and no headphone jack again makes no sense on the back we have two 00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:58.799 12 megapixel cameras uh with dual pixel 00:03:56.799 --> 00:04:03.280 face detection autofocus and on the front we have also a 10 megapixel 00:04:02.239 --> 00:04:09.920 so interesting this is what i don't get either if like 00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:13.200 it okay if i was gonna have a phone like this this is i guess this is the this is 00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:17.759 the trade-off because they want to have a hinge that is strong enough that you 00:04:15.519 --> 00:04:21.040 can like put it there and put it at any angle 00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:24.800 you know there was another example in the in the pro product promo that they 00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:28.560 had like someone using this like a camcorder like this 00:04:26.960 --> 00:04:32.800 and they were like yeah oh we were in the 90s again and that's 00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:37.199 that's dumb to me the the coolest thing about my old 00:04:35.440 --> 00:04:40.800 motorola razor was the fact that i could kind of pick it up with one hand and 00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:47.600 just like flip it up and this is like really annoying to me have it in my pocket 00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:51.840 okay oh i have a call or something i take it out i have to like fully do that 00:04:49.840 --> 00:04:55.600 or i have to use two hands i guess before we turn this thing on 00:04:53.840 --> 00:04:59.520 dbrand demands i tell you more about them bell what do we what what what's 00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:02.240 the big deal what does dbrand want everyone knows their skins are great you 00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:05.840 know we're gonna talk about something different though okay 00:05:04.320 --> 00:05:11.360 check out these uh we're gonna do a before and after we're gonna do a review height extending 00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:16.560 insoles so you can join the six foot club

can help you capitalize on it now you two can 00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:38.720 enjoy the benefits of being taller this is such a weird take we can't stop 00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:43.039 ageism but we can give you a mask so you look younger so 00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:49.840 people hire you time defying height boost air pocket 00:05:46.479 --> 00:05:52.880 compression sizing for wide feet 00:05:49.840

00:06:14.479 dbrand doesn't only uh force us to have slightly awkward 00:06:12.880 --> 00:06:18.720 conversations about immutable characteristics they also sell cool 00:06:16.880 --> 00:06:23.840 skins and cases and stuff so go to dbrand.com short Linus 00:06:22.080 --> 00:06:28.000 get it to see those 00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:33.280 so we just charged this thing and it went from zero to 61 in like 10 00:06:31.039 --> 00:06:38.000 minutes or something that seems crazy to me wait is it nothing set up 00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:42.160 okay so we finished the setup process on the phone and there's a whole thing up 00:06:40.080 --> 00:06:45.680 like a whole list of warnings that you have to think about now because you have 00:06:43.520 --> 00:06:48.960 a foldable phone this stuff seems to be specific to the folding display when you 00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:53.759 fold the phone make sure there's nothing inside such as a card keys or coins this 00:06:51.599 --> 00:06:56.720 phone isn't dust resistant exposure to small particles such as sand may cause 00:06:55.680 --> 00:07:01.039 damage and this like this is this still the 00:06:59.039 --> 00:07:05.759 thing with this form factor again like the benefit just seems so small compared 00:07:03.280 --> 00:07:09.360 to all the risks all the extra stuff like you can see here i would i just 00:07:07.440 --> 00:07:14.479 noticed this i don't know how well you can see that but 00:07:11.039 --> 00:07:16.400 there's like this little exposed hinge 00:07:14.479 --> 00:07:21.919 and uh i feel it when i'm running my finger over there and like if i go fast 00:07:20.080 --> 00:07:25.440 that could take some skin off it couldn't but it feel it doesn't feel 00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:30.800 comfortable it feels like it's in the way so this phone is water resistant 00:07:27.440 --> 00:07:32.400 ipx8 so immersion in any liquid other 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:36.720 than fresh water such as oh such as saltwater 00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:42.400 alcohol can damage your phone uh you can immerse it in only water 00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:47.360 it's i guess it's it's it can handle water immersion but there are little 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:52.160 bits where dust can get in all right we're in as i suspected once 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:55.280 the screen is on and you're looking at it kind of head-on you don't see this 00:07:53.759 --> 00:08:00.560 the crease at all although as soon as you move it you kind of start to see ah 00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:00.560 there she is 00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:08.639 there it is you can't hide from me to me phones are tools okay i get a small 00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:12.800 phone because to me there's greater utility in being able to use it 00:08:10.479 --> 00:08:15.759 one-handed some people want a big screen because that's more important to them 00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:20.400 than than being comfortable like they're fine like shifting the phone around in their hand in order to get their thumb 00:08:18.479 --> 00:08:23.520 to certain places and i'm not judging them for that but i am saying they're 00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:27.440 wrong i'm just gonna how many asides have i 00:08:25.520 --> 00:08:31.440 stopped to do and talk about the stupid form factor it's not stupid it's fine 00:08:29.919 --> 00:08:36.479 hey if you care about that kind of stuff you're probably going to care about the colors and let me tell you this thing 00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:41.680 comes in in bora purple and pink gold 00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:44.640 and blue and and graphite there's more 00:08:41.680 --> 00:08:48.880 uh there's a bespoke edition for if you really want to just 00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:55.600 impress people show off the gold gold frame yellow front white back and 00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:57.440 there's other combinations as well um 00:08:55.600 --> 00:09:00.880 okay one thing i am curious about is what this front screen can do because 00:08:59.839 --> 00:09:06.160 apparently they've made some improvements to the uh rear display here 00:09:03.680 --> 00:09:09.920 uh so what can you do with it that's my question how do i i thought you were 00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:14.480 able to like swipe through things on oh there we go what 00:09:11.680 --> 00:09:18.480 no play okay so there's a music player alarms i'm guessing you can't like set 00:09:16.959 --> 00:09:22.480 alarms from there but it'll tell you when you have an alarm what's this audio 00:09:20.839 --> 00:09:26.399 recording open phone to continue what's the point 00:09:24.560 --> 00:09:31.600 of that interesting it has this the buttons ui 00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:34.720 by default i thought that the gesture ui is just like default across the board 00:09:32.800 --> 00:09:38.959 but samsung's holding on take it out of my pocket do that oh and then i can 00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:44.240 swipe right away if i press the power button okay oh i'm in a dangerous situation i better 00:09:42.800 --> 00:09:48.240 record audio and then oh delete recording discarded 00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:51.040 that's okay so that right there that's a pretty cool use case for this tiny 00:09:49.920 --> 00:09:56.080 little screen um what else a timer that's great a 00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:59.440 calendar very useful you can unlock the phone while it's closed with your 00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:02.959 fingerprint that's pretty cool oh nice okay so i was 00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:07.519 wondering if you like because it's annoying to have to swipe through all of those to get to the end and you can 00:10:05.680 --> 00:10:10.480 actually reorder them so if i want like the calendar up at the top then i'm 00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:15.839 gonna do that nice all right let's play a music thing 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:19.519 and see if that shows up on the front screen playing okay we're playing music 00:10:18.160 --> 00:10:24.240 now but you can't tell because i turned the volume off what does it show on the 00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:27.680 cover there's a little music icon so if i tap the little thing it shows up 00:10:26.800 --> 00:10:33.760 but if i lock 00:10:29.839 --> 00:10:35.360 put in my put in my pocket bring it up 00:10:33.760 --> 00:10:38.880 it should it should be the first thing that should be intuitive right these 00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:43.440 guys were asking oh can you answer calls while it's 00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:46.560 unfolded but at that point i mean first of all no probably not obviously like 00:10:45.680 --> 00:10:51.839 the like the earpiece and this the mic are not right next to each other right now 00:10:49.760 --> 00:10:55.040 so no you probably have to unfold it but at that point it's like why are we 00:10:53.040 --> 00:10:58.640 asking about all these things that you can do with it's when it's 00:10:57.200 --> 00:11:02.959 closed when you can just do that and take the call there are just so many 00:11:01.760 --> 00:11:07.600 questions in the world 00:11:04.800 --> 00:11:10.000 the other uh the flip three had uh dual front-facing speakers as far as i'm 00:11:09.040 --> 00:11:17.680 aware this one does as well i'm at 4k now this is 120 hertz display 00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:22.959 dynamic ammo led whatever that means 2640x1080 00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:27.700 22x9 aspect ratio just like the last one so cinematic content is going to be good 00:11:25.920 --> 00:11:31.649 now we have max 00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:39.440 pretty good i refuse to do a more in-depth speaker 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:43.760 comparison for this phone because if you're really 00:11:41.760 --> 00:11:47.200 concerned about the speaker quality on a phone that you're 00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:51.040 be honest for you're primarily getting so that you can use it as jewelry in 00:11:48.800 --> 00:11:55.920 your purse then you got your priorities messed up man back to the display it's 00:11:52.959 --> 00:12:00.800 HDR 10 plus certified and it's got 1200 00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:04.160 nits peak brightness for HDR you may have noticed me using the fingerprint 00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:07.440 sensor quite a bit here and i have noticed that it is impressively fast 00:12:05.920 --> 00:12:10.800 okay so i've ragged on this on this phone for some things so far but for the 00:12:09.680 --> 00:12:16.320 most part the specs of it are actually really competitive with other flagship phones i 00:12:14.399 --> 00:12:20.480 mean it's got the snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 which is the new flagship you know top 00:12:18.959 --> 00:12:25.360 tier processor that you're going to see in most flagship phones coming out i 00:12:22.959 --> 00:12:31.120 think it's got 128 gigs of storage and eight gigs at that uh 999 usd based here 00:12:29.680 --> 00:12:35.600 i mean that's pretty impressive and as you saw we got the fast charging which is really nice although maybe part of 00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:42.000 the reason that it was so good at the fast charging is because the battery is only 3 700 milliamp hours which is not 00:12:39.920 --> 00:12:45.680 horrible but it's kind of like mid low mid oh another thing that i forgot to 00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:49.040 mention when we were talking about the front screen here is the fact that 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:55.120 if you have this front screen on a foldable phone you want that to be able to take a selfie right this is a test 00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:59.680 they better have camera shortcut mapped to double click on the power button that 00:12:57.040 --> 00:13:04.880 should just be default disappointed just up oh 00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:09.040 but it opened the inside that's stupid 00:13:06.880 --> 00:13:13.920 i'm so confused we got the phone unlocked on the home screen okay 00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:17.600 close the phone double click 00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:20.959 it goes to camera never mind i guess it does work it 00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:26.480 didn't do it the first time because it was deaking me out it was psyching me out if you want to get real dramatic 00:13:24.079 --> 00:13:29.839 with it hello nice to see you 00:13:28.079 --> 00:13:34.399 if i took a photo like this and sent it to you would you even know i took it on 00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:38.880 a foldable phone that was folded in half tap to take photo 00:13:36.880 --> 00:13:43.360 it looked like it was in portrait mode but it took a landscape photo oh right 00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:48.800 oops i have to do this double tap to show full preview 00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:52.240 oh there that's really dumb 00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:58.320 right it's a 1.9 inch super amoled uh 512 by 00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:02.959 260. i mean that looks remarkably sharp for 00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:06.720 like i mean it's a tiny screen screen what do you expect yeah 00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:10.399 just use the main camera for this don't use the top stubby 00:14:10.560 --> 00:14:17.279 and you know it's a samsung camera so that's a little more washed out like 00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:23.120 gray colors than i would expect let's take one on the regular 00:14:20.160 --> 00:14:23.120 one on the ultra wide 00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:29.120 that's really wide i mean you know i'm not gonna go spend too long in the 00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:32.560 samsung photo app here because like you know they're kind of all the same they 00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:37.360 have their cool uh extra samsung features modes for your for your camera 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:42.880 super slow-mo slow motion it can do 40 uh 4k at 4k at 30 or 60 FPS 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:48.160 and then various you know slow motion modes with your 1080p and 720p etc 00:14:46.160 --> 00:14:53.199 as we said though uh one of the cool things about having a phone with a 00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:57.040 flexi form factor is the fact that you can use these kind of different camera 00:14:56.000 --> 00:15:02.399 modes here so i don't know if you can see when it's flat the viewfinder takes 00:14:59.760 --> 00:15:05.279 up that much of the screen but if you bend it 00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:09.360 it shifts now so that the viewfinder's up here and you got your controls down 00:15:06.959 --> 00:15:12.720 here instead of holding it i could like put it down and now you know it's being 00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:18.800 used as a phone stand and i can take that photo so there's one use you can also switch 00:15:16.880 --> 00:15:23.120 which side the viewfinder is on by pressing this button so now this would 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:27.120 be maybe even better like this you know what i mean hook this around a 00:15:24.959 --> 00:15:32.720 corner oh yeah that's what i like to see 00:15:30.720 --> 00:15:37.120 we saw this video and we decided to take that out this says samsung although i am 00:15:34.880 --> 00:15:42.959 kind of surprised that they put two uh 12 megapixel cameras on this when i 00:15:39.920 --> 00:15:45.920 believe that samsung's s series 00:15:42.959 --> 00:15:49.199 uh phones have much higher megapixels i think they have at least at least 50. i 00:15:47.680 --> 00:15:53.279 think they might have a 64 megapixel on one of those 00:15:50.800 --> 00:15:57.600 that makes this worse yeah no that makes more megapixels is stupid at that sensor 00:15:55.120 --> 00:16:00.800 size oh i know that like more megapixels doesn't necessarily 00:15:59.040 --> 00:16:04.880 equate to better photos i'm just saying that like you know that gives you greater flexibility if you want to like 00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:08.160 zoom all the way in on something or whatever you know okay david 00:16:06.880 --> 00:16:12.959 and if you're buying this one just for the camera you're making a mistake once again 00:16:11.199 --> 00:16:17.279 i'm talking about you and because of the samsung phone they 00:16:14.800 --> 00:16:22.480 changed their policy recently uh in terms of Android os updates and security 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:27.519 updates so this one is going to get the four years of Android os updates 00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:31.440 that other samsung phones are getting as well as five years of security updates 00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:36.560 but samsung is leading the way 00:16:34.560 --> 00:16:41.120 in stupid form factors yes so this was my experience of a 00:16:38.800 --> 00:16:45.040 foldable phone i think that you know basically my preconceptions about the 00:16:43.040 --> 00:16:50.720 idea of a foldable phone were largely confirmed i still don't understand the 00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:53.120 utility of having like a regular phone 00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:57.839 that folds in half so subscribe to techlinked and to ShortCircuit i guess 00:16:56.399 --> 00:17:01.519 love you so much watch another video now bye 00:17:01.920 --> 00:17:08.079 hey Linus uh dbrand sent over 00:17:05.360 --> 00:17:08.079 a phone for
