Showcasing a foldable phone's featuresfrom @thespenceryan

[01]

Overview

The creator reviews a new foldable smartphone, arguing it's a 'triple threat' that makes traditional 'tall phones' obsolete. He demonstrates its three primary use cases: as a compact, one-handed phone when closed; as a small tablet for media and multitasking when opened; and as a book-like device for reading documents when turned sideways. The creator praises its form factor, multitasking capabilities, and near-invisible screen crease, concluding that it is the 'perfect fold'.

Transcript

Okay. So after one week with the z good eight, I think we all need to move on from tall phones, guys, because this is a triple threat. We all know the iPhone good is coming, and chances are it's gonna look kinda like this. And that is exciting. But this foldable holds a very special place in my heart because it just feels right. The shorter and wider form factor, the sharp corners, scrolling on this beautiful full front screen, which feels good in one rank. But then you open, and it's this perfect little tablet best for watching videos, but also great at multitasking because one UI handles it so well, opening windows side by side for you or even stacking apps on top. But then you turn it one more time sideways. And it's not a phone anymore. It's a document. It's a book. You're effectively getting three perfect aspect ratios in one foldable device. And with this near invisible crease, the new silicon carbon better, and this beautiful form factor, guys, I really think that Samsung just made the perfect Good.
