00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:11.280
and i'm going to actually consult the manufacturer's website

00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:15.600
okay so basically it's just a galaxy fold but in gold

00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:18.159
angular shining transformation

00:01:15.600 --> 00:01:21.759

now wonderful in the palm of your form

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:34.400
life is like a wave of ups and downs and only when the peaks and valleys are

00:01:32.720 --> 00:01:38.640
tempered and improved can they be exceptionally exciting

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:44.079
wow this phone is gonna change my [ __ ] life

00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:46.799
the mighty general gate opens w

00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:49.840
world damn i mean i i was impressed by the box i mean i did have a lot of fun

00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:54.000
opening it but you can tolerate great friends and close

00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:57.920
friends as well as the various possibilities in the future me i do

00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:01.439
tolerate my friends i don't like them but i tolerate them oh

00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:05.920
it has dual sim well that's nice that's an improvement

00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:09.520
over the regular galaxy fold enough talk let's take a look at this

00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:12.959
thing seen enough manuals in my day all right

00:02:11.920 --> 00:02:16.480
cool more documentation and this is it

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:23.840
that does actually look pretty darn

00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:23.840
sharp

00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:30.319
oh wow you can really hear the texture of the phone

00:02:27.440 --> 00:02:36.400
just pulling the sticker off that color is surprisingly classy man

00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:39.200
in the picture it looked more like uh

00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:44.000
it looked more like tacky like a really yellowy gold

00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:45.920
that is actually kind of classy

00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:48.800
here's the real question that i had after after i tell you who the sponsor

00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:54.239
is today private internet access is a vpn that allows you to access services and

00:02:52.720 --> 00:02:57.920
websites as though you were in a different country it encrypts

00:02:55.920 --> 00:03:01.280
all of your traffic with a safe and protected ip

00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:06.159
and you can connect up to five devices at once with clients for Windows

00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:08.879
macOS Linux Android and iOS

00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:12.640
so buy a one year plan for 39.95 and get three months for free

00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:16.879
at the link in the video description 24 hour vip support

00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:23.040
is that right samsung doesn't have that on the regular fold even though it's a 2

00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:23.040
000 phone whoa

00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:29.519
wait wait wait

00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:34.959
shut the front door what is this 24 hour you can call any like

00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:35.840
thing uh get any pickup service for the

00:03:34.959 --> 00:03:43.120
airport what with the phone

00:03:39.200 --> 00:03:46.640
what is this samsung has a vip lounge

00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:49.280
no way so this is like got

00:03:46.640 --> 00:03:52.319
travel benefits that come with your for the first year i would think or

00:03:50.640 --> 00:03:55.599
something right one year no that's what that one year is

00:03:54.959 --> 00:04:03.920
for the just in case you break the screen so you have one year screen replacement

00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:07.760
and a bunch 24 24 hour support

00:04:03.920 --> 00:04:10.480
and then like travel travel benefits

00:04:07.760 --> 00:04:15.599
like faster security checkpoints and pick up for the airport anytime

00:04:12.959 --> 00:04:19.919
what the hell is going on how much did i pay for this thing

00:04:17.359 --> 00:04:24.080
got a super fast charger included you've got uh

00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:25.199
some akg headphones included i'm not

00:04:24.080 --> 00:04:28.560
gonna bother type c to c for charging data transfer

00:04:27.840 --> 00:04:33.520
or whatever of course what i had actually wanted to know and the reason i ordered this thing

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:37.759
in the first place all the way from china was whether the dimensions were actually

00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:44.320
any different from the regular z-fold 2.

00:04:41.440 --> 00:04:48.720
and there were rumors that it was taller but it seems like

00:04:45.520 --> 00:04:52.240
that was a big load of horseplot because

00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:54.639
it is clearly exactly the same phone

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:59.280
and seeing them side by side dang i take the gold one i take the

00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:01.280
shiny like that's so boring

00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:06.240
it does look really nice the front too like this is too plain now

00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:08.160
over 3 000 us dollars i paid for this

00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:12.320
thing you people better watch this video twice

00:05:09.280 --> 00:05:12.720
yeah so there's the one difference dual

00:05:12.320 --> 00:05:16.560
sim versus single sim for the original fold

00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:21.759
and this like travel chinese travel edition one

00:05:19.919 --> 00:05:24.560
i'm disappointed it didn't get microsd but i guess the rationale is pretty

00:05:23.280 --> 00:05:28.320
simple if you can afford this like golden general phone

00:05:27.440 --> 00:05:33.360
then there's only one sku the 512 gig one and

00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:40.320
if you got 512 gigs you don't need no stinking microsd card

00:05:36.840 --> 00:05:42.960
oh whoa look at this

00:05:40.320 --> 00:05:45.759
oh there it is i wonder if they've made any revisions to like the folding

00:05:44.479 --> 00:05:51.520
mechanism or anything it's hard to tell because this one's also brand new but it does seem like it

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:55.440
might be a bit stiffer yeah it feels stiffer but this one's

00:05:54.720 --> 00:06:00.160
quite used now just like the regular z-fold 2

00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:04.160
fingerprint scanners on the right actually like this it's really fast to

00:06:01.919 --> 00:06:12.560
use that's pretty sick desktop wallpaper

00:06:08.400 --> 00:06:14.800
oh my god it has so much

00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:18.160
junk pre-installed on it i mean then again it's only

00:06:15.919 --> 00:06:22.080
junk because i don't recognize it i guess all the google stuff that comes

00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:24.479
okay no it's junk it's there's tick tock on here

00:06:24.880 --> 00:06:29.680
the heart of the world yeah uh okay

00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:31.919
well i want to go to the heart of the world

00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:41.520
yes the server's pretty far away man i love that 120 hertz display man

00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:43.199
very slow animation i hate

00:06:41.520 --> 00:06:48.000
that that might be something that you can reconfigure though

00:06:45.039 --> 00:06:51.919
see that just like a really different animation style

00:06:49.599 --> 00:06:54.400
oh no that time it came down fast did they not have Android auto in china or

00:06:53.360 --> 00:07:00.240
something i kind of want to try and daily drive this thing there just might be

00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:02.639
like little deal breakers like that let's see

00:07:01.280 --> 00:07:06.400
oh shoot there's still stuff that's coming up in chinese it's actually

00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:10.720
slightly different hardware so that might be a problem well given

00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:15.360
that i guess it's not the best three thousand dollars i ever spent for

00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:18.560
a different color of a phone that i already own and that is in perfect

00:07:17.039 --> 00:07:22.479
working condition but definitely looks sweet and if i needed

00:07:21.520 --> 00:07:26.319
all those like you know special travel services or

00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:29.520
whatever then i mean i guess it would depend how much

00:07:27.840 --> 00:07:32.720
those services cost just separate from a phone thanks samsung for

00:07:31.599 --> 00:07:36.400
