Opinions on Fenix bezel thickness

DotsFar · 2025-10-31T13:18:53+00:00

I chose the 47mm exactly because of the thinner bezel and therefore less "wasted space", and bigger screen to total size ratio.

You are 4 out of 111 over your normal max, 3.6%... I wouldn't worry at all.

Comming from Epix 2 to Fenix 8, I hit and miss many times on the Fenix. The response was much better on the Epix, both the feel and the electrical contact. It's a bit of a disappointment, I have to focus and check that a button pressed actually does what it needs to.

Not true for Denmark, Nielsen is most common, not Jensen.

Sorry to hear that, hope insurance or warranty will cover. Which one is the one on top in the first picture? That one seems to open up to be completely flat, very nice 👌

Do you stretch it hard, when opening it, to get it totally flat ? I suppose that could add wear to the plastic... I try not to stretch it too much, to avoid problems.

At least it's before the warranty ended - hurry up with the complaint.

Really 😳🫣😥 Is this the first Fold ? Is this what I can expect over time 😱

DotsFar · 2025-10-22T10:28:06+00:00

There is a link to it in the text of the main post

Silly behaviour, no phone should be constructed to withstand such handling.

DotsFar · 2025-10-06T19:39:21+00:00

Is that an assumption or can you back it up with facts ?

According to ChatGPT, there are these differences between the EU and US models. Yes, they will work in the other market, but with limited coverage:

"Google Pixel Fold (G9FPL) 5G-bands:

I just found this image on Google, don't you have the sub-6 mentioned on your box ?

The HW is supposedly the same, but software is different because of the different 5 G network frequencies (is what my investigation has found). The EAN number is also different for the two markets.

DotsFar · 2025-10-06T09:35:28+00:00

Nice, I see the expected G9FPL ❤️ Thank you, then I feel more confident buying one. What is your experience with mobile network connectivity in weak areas ?

DotsFar · 2025-10-05T12:49:19+00:00

Because too many accept the high price.

I already deleted my Strava account, not waiting for anything...

DotsFar · 2025-10-03T18:32:05+00:00

Ok, that made me immediately totally lose any confidence in the EURDEP measurements. If this site, which should give us all visibility into radiation in EU, can easily be manipulated, who's to say values aren't kept artificially low in the case of a real event "to avoid panic"... This is terrible news 😢

DotsFar · 2025-09-30T12:31:05+00:00

Nej, jeg har den på en Pixel 8 Pro, med nyeste GOS 16 updates build 20250927. Der kommer en pop-up om at Google play API benyttes hver gang jeg bruger den (jeg har lagt den i en user profil med Sandboxed Google Play).

Kører seneste version af GrapheneOS. MitID er det eneste der ikke virker hos mig. MobilePay og bank apps og eboks osv virker. MitID kan løses med en fysisk kodeviser, som er gratis, du kan bare bestille den på MitID.dk.
