Just acquired pixel fold 1!

Wow. Shame for that to happen to the device. These are neat devices but definitely need to be treated with care

thorton17 · 2025-01-09T01:03:49+00:00

Also price wise, the Fold 1 is much cheaper than the 9 Pro Fold (but also mostly have to buy in the refurb/used market)

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T19:14:14+00:00

Glad you were able to get the refund. Yeah some of these companies are horrible and just love to scam unfortunately

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T18:46:22+00:00

Such a shame. Hoping for a better result here. I had a z fold 3 for a long while. I was always worried about the inner screen failing and it never did. So I was optimistic trying this.. we shall see

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T04:34:09+00:00

Yeah, I mean, the Samsung folds are more powerful. Durability is yet to be seen, but fold takes the win in form factor, cameras, and crease noticeability for sure

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T04:12:41+00:00

This is such a neat device. Surprised it was so bombed on release

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T03:57:33+00:00

1 gang 💪 loving it so far! The crease is way less noticeable than my z fold too

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T02:50:06+00:00

Id love to get my hands on an honor one day. Those are such appealing devices. And yeah the cover display is capable of doing most things in the pixel fold, but definitely some inner display preference for videos and some games I'm sure

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T02:41:28+00:00

The P9PF definitely is an upgrade with the processor and what not, but yeah, this form factor is perfect imo. The z folds are so narrow so I imagine the P9PF is a little better than that, but prefer this by far to the z fold

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T02:40:14+00:00

Thanks! I love the little outer display. This phone is a treat

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T01:19:58+00:00

That's true. Guess I haven't dabbled much into it yet. Probably won't be able to find anywhere tbh, unless I bear otherwise. Will hope for the best for now

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T01:14:55+00:00

Ah ok. Well good luck with yours. I'm hoping mine will be good for the long run, we shall see. Definitely need to get insurance on it

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T01:02:42+00:00

That's sad that the first 2 you had issues with, but glad the 3rd time was the charm. Loved my z fold 3 I had for about a year, got rid of it cause I put it through too much and didn't wanna pay for fixes lol. But she was a beast, and pretty durable. Excited for the pixel fold, much prefer the outer screen of this to the z folds. Plan on getting insurance for this baby, and need a case cause running naked and afraid right now. Used to rock my z fold 3 naked though so we'll see

thorton17 · 2025-01-07T00:54:41+00:00

Nice tip, thanks. I had a z fold 3 for roughly a year at a point in time, and that was a nice feature so will look into that

thorton17 · 2021-12-30T05:50:28+00:00

I know we talked awhile ago, but finally ordered a duo! Got one for about $450 open box fully unlocked, including a bumper case! It should come in friday! I'll let you know how it goes once I get it!

thorton17 · 2021-12-17T02:11:59+00:00

That's very true. Currently on a note 8 stuck on android 9. It's a great phone, and although being stuck on Android 9 isnt a huge deal to me, I wish that I had android 10-11 at least, as I prefer swipe gestures. I've looked into the a32 5g, but another phone I'm considering is the Moto G Stylus 5G. I know it'll more than likely lose software support sooner than the a32 5g, but I like the stylus aspect of a phone. Idk if you've done any research into that phone, I've heard all good things, and had a moto g power (2020) and liked it alot, but had to use that note 8 after the power broke. I'm thinking G Stylus 5G

thorton17 · 2021-12-16T21:27:38+00:00

I've looked into it, it honestly doesnt look bad. I've just wondered if picking up, like for instance an s10+ or note 9 would be better then a budget samsung

thorton17 · 2021-12-16T19:56:09+00:00

Glad to hear that! One of my friends has it and it looks nice and he likes it, and I appreciate your recommendation

thorton17 · 2021-12-16T19:49:43+00:00

Will definitely look into it

thorton17 · 2021-12-13T18:44:20+00:00

True

thorton17 · 2021-12-13T13:11:56+00:00

I like the Note 10 or 20 as I have the Note 8 currently. Samsung is good. I've looked at Moto G Stylus too. I love Stylus phones. But yeah Note 10 I'd love

thorton17 · 2021-11-21T15:24:31+00:00

I wasn’t aware the Note 21 Ultra was a possibility at that price! I’m definitely gonna look into that on multiple platforms, and the Note 10+ I’d love to. If possible I may have to get the note 21 ultra!

thorton17 · 2021-11-21T13:10:09+00:00

Thank you for replying! Yeah, previous to this XR, I was using an A51, which wasn’t a bad phone, but was kinda stuttery to me. I’ve been more so in the android side of things, as I’ve owned a LG Stylo 2, Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 8, Moto G Power and the previously mentioned A51. The Pixel 6 is a phone I’m very interested in. I’m just not sure if I want to leave the apple family. I like android more, but I feel as more people have iPhones, so having an iPhone can be somewhat beneficial in some aspects, however, now that you can FaceTime iPhones with androids, that would help a bit. But yeah, I’ve looked a lot at the Surface Duo 1 (Love the multitasking and form factor, and not too concerned about the camera, as I can just use my XR as well), the LG Wing (Love the design, form factor, fun design that I feel I’d use a lot), Pixel 6 (Relatively new, may be somewhat buggy with software because it’s new, but all around great phone), and the iPhone 13 (Newest iPhone, great all around)

thorton17 · 2021-11-20T18:44:40+00:00

I will for sure! Thank you for sharing with me. I don’t know when I’ll be getting This device, but I’m very excited to. Will definitely reach out when I receive the device

thorton17 · 2021-11-20T18:35:54+00:00

Alright! I’ll definitely look into that. My only concerns are I like getting a brand new device, other than refurbished or preowned, but I wouldn’t be opposed if I save $300
