Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3, Galaxy Z Flip 3, Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Buds 2 Mega Unboxing...

Now, I am really happy that Samsung continues to push forward the foldable, because we are desperate for these new looks and new takes if you spend any amount of time in like this experience of having all this real estate. Oh, that's because this is one of the one of the true under display situations. Wow. Oh, it's called cream. It does actually look kind of appetizing almost, so I like the modern look to it on the back modern shapes. We got all the new stuff yes exciting day.

It is the z, flip, 3, 5 g and the z fold, 3 5g, and it's not just these retail units in front of me, my goodness, I got everything it's all the colors. It's like look at this uh greenish tone and the lavender thing that got Kirk quite excited, even with the big one. As far as the big one's concerned like we got this color. What is this? It's uh some type of phantom silver, because willy does on deck, just over there behind the laptop he just finished eating a sandwich which means that he's fired right up, and then we have this one right here, which is apparently some type of green. It's almost black! I like those deep greens.

What's this one called phantom green, just stick with the phantom you'll be all set, it doesn't stop there. We also have the watches' galaxy watch, 4 classic and galaxy watch, 4, the Galaxy Buds, 2, the s, pen pro and then the s pen over here, which fits into the case. Now this was rumored and look. It happened s pen, input on z, fold three. This is what a lot of people wanted, and it is official.

So why don't we kick it off with the z fold, three five g every so often there's one that comes across that it'll get you going, because it's kind of the reason you got into the business to be excited by new things, new gadgets, new ways of looking at something, and that's where the fold lives for me, because the very first generation came out this one right over here and immediately. I knew something was up. Something was different now we're on the third generation. They continue to make improvements to it. Ipx8 you have gorilla glass victim on here.

The pen input now snapdragon 8 is going to be in there.12 gigs of ram is going to be in their flagship status inside this box is going to be phantom black and right away. You know it's not your typical smartphone, it's already in its folded out state, and this is a huge display to work with 7.6 inches on the inside and then of course, that exterior display 6.2 inches a slight increase in PPI as well. That's where you're going to get your gorilla glass Vitus now I am really happy that Samsung continues to push forward the foldable, because we are desperate for these new looks and new takes. So it's a very deep black, and you can see it contrasted against the display over here now the camera layout changed a little sort of fits in with the rest of the lineup. So you have 12 megapixels across the board here, and then you have some optical zoom in there as well at 2x.

Let's go ahead and just do our initial fold here still so very satisfying here you can see the black hinge as well. The device got lighter. You know it's a relatively large device. That's the point of it right. It's meant to fold out and be kind of a productivity monster.

If you need to launch, for example, a desktop version of a browser, no problem 7.6 inches, but it meant that when you were using it as a regular phone, it was kind of heavy, but they were able to trim that back.271 grams on the new model, 279 grams, so we're shaving grams and that's tough to do from an engineering standpoint. There's going to be a little of paperwork. Also, a sim tool is, in there a type c cable to get it charged up. The days of power bricks are over. This is your phantom black.

This one is the green and when you set them side by side now you can start to appreciate how green this is or how black this other one is, I'm probably partial to black still. But as far as greens go that's a nice little subtle one phantom silver over here. So this is your lighter variant, which has a little of color shift to it. So that just gives you an idea of the differences there. So you're going to get 12 gigs of ram, no matter which version you get you're either going to get 256, gigs of storage or 512.

You're, going to get a 4 400 William hour battery, it's now starting at 17.99 in the US and 269 in Canada. Yes, it is still a premium price tag, but it is obviously a premium phone. It's got the premium spec sheet, and it happens to be one of the very few foldable devices to choose from so the price tag kind of fits here. It's truly doing two things you're getting a little tablet and a smartphone in one. This is the case that houses the pen- and this just inserts like this, it's like a wallet style case, and it allows you to store your pen.

So that's what the form factor looks like if you want to go this route, I'm more inclined towards keeping the case. Uh, slim uh, we're also, of course, going to have a later case that we're going to put out for that device. We have the version here for the z fold too. This is about as thin as it can possibly get we're, also going to have it available right now, while you're watching this to pre-order for the z-fold three, so go check that out. Let's move on to the z-flip three, the z flip in general is not something that I spent a tremendous amount of time with, but it is an exciting form factor this one actually caught Kirk's attention he's like I don't know, maybe I should be uh flipping.

I know famously my pal. Austin Evans loves this particular device. This is the portability advantage. This thing when it's folded down is tiny in the pocket and I can tell right away: it's lighter weight when you have it in the traditional phone form factor it kind of feels like a regular smartphone that just so happens to fold all right. So what is this color called? Will? Oh, it's called cream.

It does actually look kind of appetizing almost, so I like the modern look to it on the back modern shapes when you hold it like this. Like I said it's, it really feels like a typical phone, maybe even lighter than some uh other non-folding devices, with a similar form factor. This is super comfy to hold up, take a phone call and then just quickly. You quickly fold it down. I have to improve my fold game.

Oh, there we go that's starting to come back to me now, there's something so satisfying about physically folding and then, when you go for the pocket test on this, it's tiny in the pocket. You hardly notice it's there compared to some of these monster smartphones we're carrying. So when it comes to portability, that's a true advantage to the flip over the fold. Now when you're unfolded, obviously you have a little less room to work with well quite a bit and that's where this device comes in. That's why my preference is the larger one, a huge OLED display to watch content on that's where this one shines, but on the go this one here is going to be tough to beat 6.7 inches. Obviously, the aspect ratio is a little different, so this one is taller which helps make it comfortable to hold.

So as far as the processor goes, we're still looking at top tier specifications, snapdragon 8, whether you go flip or if you go fold, this is cream. We also have a greenish color, it's kind of more of an emerald. What are they calling? This will just green straight up green, keep it simple and easy for myself, and then we have another lavender like color. This one is uh quite flowery and vibrant. Obviously we have some differences here, triple camera setup on the fold, double camera setup on the flip, so we have 12 megapixels times two.

So on this one we're lacking the optical zoom, but the whole thing is so slender, it kind of makes sense as far as unlocking the device it's similar on both you place your thumb in this location. Over here you have volume up above that, so to unlock it, it's a very sort of natural spot, and it's also the button that you're going to use to power the device inside the package. Here, it's going to be identical. Yeah, we've got our USB type-c cable in there as well. If you head to samsung.

com you're, going to see the entire selection of color availability, so the z flip 3 is going to start at 999 dollars. So it's going to be a little more budget friendly as well and in Canadian dollars you're looking at 1259 to start, so you've got eight gigs of ram here: you're either going to get 128, gigs of storage or 256 gigs of storage. I almost forgot about this. Yes, front-facing cameras, so on the fold you have the exterior front-facing camera, but then you also have the interior front facing camera, with the sort of hole, punch, setup right there and then, on the z, flip same idea. We have this tiny little hole punch over here.

This is 10 megapixels on both the devices. So the cover camera on the exterior of the fold is going to be 10. Megapixels. Then the under display camera on the inside of the z fold.3 that's going to be 4 megapixels! Oh, that's because this is one of the one of the true under display situations, wow, it kind of hides the front-facing camera ever so slightly. So it's a little uh! You know less offensive than having a hole punch, that's pretty wild, so I got both the devices booted up set now, and this is what they're gonna look like in their uh folded down, flipped down kind of uh form factor.

You can see man. This thing is almost like half the size when it's folded down and then what's funny is when you don't know how funny it is, but when you unfold this they're almost the same form factor on the exterior, but then this one has the next level to it. Obviously you go like this, and this is the thing that I've missed. I can't wait to get back to and get the sim card back in, because this is just it's a lot of fun. I mean you just boot up some YouTube or something if you spend any amount of time in like this experience of having all this real estate- and let me just show you what I'm talking about with the audio.

Listen to this, this viewing experience right here on the OLED I mean it really feels like you've got a tablet, a tablet that can also go in your pocket and also be a phone if you need it to, and it's really it's truly unique in that sense. Look at this I mean I know I realize you can do multitasking on other phones, but you just don't have the form factor to truly take advantage of it. If I flip back fold into this orientation, then I have comments, so I can be watching up top looking at comments down below when it comes to content consumption. This thing truly comes into its own. Oh, I see how they're doing it, so the camera area is still the location where you're keeping you know your clock and your battery life, and things like this, so tabs will open up underneath that portion.

But if I go this way, that's where the front-facing camera no longer becomes a significant obstruction. Previously, you would have had a giant hole punch there, but now with this new tech instead, it just looks like sort of little tiny grid pattern, but I think over time, you're, basically you're going to stop even noticing that, and it's going to be less of a distraction than the hole punch would be, so it's cool to see this technology implemented, especially in a device like this, which is so centered on content, consumption and immersion. As far as fancy tricks go on this one, if I did the same task open up YouTube, it's obviously a much different experience here, because if I go scroll I mean I can still have a video and scroll here. It's super tall. The video portion itself is quite small, but if I also depends on the aspect ratio of the video keep that in consideration.

The show is 16 by nine look at the expression right there. What a pause! That's quite a pause, look at the expression, so the best part here is you get big smartphone experience, but you can do this. You can just bam and have a tiny smartphone in your pocket. Big smartphone experience, tiny smartphone in a pocket. This is small tablet, experience and regular sized smartphone in the pocket.

The last time that I used this device as the daily driver, I noticed I ended up using this display a lot when I was out and then, when I had a little like a moment to relax or something, or I needed to get more comprehensive stuff done. Then I'm going to this display here, and it was a huge improvement over the first generation when they went with the bigger exterior display which truly made it function like a typical smartphone with a typical screen size without the need to unfold it. Okay, now another thing that struck me pretty much right away, especially when comparing this model to the previous generation is how much work Samsung has done on the hinge mechanism. So obviously, a big component, the most important component on a folding device, is this hinge that makes it all possible and of course, we've seen the exploded views in the past of how many individual pieces and a variety of mechanical aspects. How much of that goes into this hinge section.

But I noticed right away when opening and closing this thing, it is absolutely a step above what was happening on the previous model. This one now can stop at any point, so it's a little less flimsy and feels more robust through its entirety of opening and closing. It reminds me of one of these car doors that you would have on like a luxury vehicle that can stop at any point, as opposed to continuing to swing to only like two or three points along the way, and I'm wondering if this new construction has anything to do with this enhance dip rating as well, that they've been able to put into this device and then also like, where does that play into the overall weight of the device, because somehow they were able to create a more satisfying and solid feeling hinge. But then they were also able to drop the weight ever so slightly, so that's kind of a nice combination. It just feels to me like you're, dealing with a device that is not first generation anymore, you're dealing with a device here where they have learned from the previous models and taken what they've learned and then applied it, and that's the nice thing about new form factors, there's so much room to grow and to figure things out, as you have success along the way- and I do expect Samsung to continue to have success with this model, because now you've also got the pen input to go with it, which is something that a lot of people wanted and could be a compelling characteristic like a compelling feature for them to step up to it.

Now, as far as that, front-facing camera, this uh image here is kind of probably the best illustration you can get as to how it hides when you're looking at it straight on. But then it's kind of still there if you're really looking for it. The video overemphasizes the existence of it, but I would say at first glance here: it is an improvement and less distracting than the hole punch equivalent. Now some of those hinge characteristics apply to the flip model as well, which you're looking at right here and, of course, this also has this secondary external display for some basic information, but you can see just how solid this hinge. Design is across the entire range of motion now this device.

I never spent a lot of time with the previous model. Maybe that will change with this model, because there is something satisfying about this form factor as well, and especially when it comes to single-handed usage, it feels really light in my hand, even more so than devices that don't fold at all. It has this kind of slender feeling to it and because it's mostly tall and narrow one-handed text input is super easy to do so. If you're one of these people, that's always on the go, this could be the foldable for you uh. I don't know for me, it's just such a tough choice, because I'm compelled by that large screen.

The ability to have a tablet in your pocket when you need to get even more stuff done, but these do have their set of similarities when it comes to the way that you unlock them, the big thumbprint on the side and, of course, the vibrant OLED. That's the other benefit here in order to get foldable, you're working with OLED to begin with, and Samsung has figured that out a long time ago. They have some of the most pleasing screens and as you've seen from this imagery here, these things pop absolutely tons of color lots of contrast, those deep blacks and so on, and so that's another appealing component, whether it's a foldable or not a foldable, but just look how portable this thing is once it's folded up in clamshell mode, I can see this being appealing for somebody who is going out wants to throw it in their purse or in their pocket. It's uh. It's really, there's not a lot on the market, that's quite like it! Now.

As far as the camera options go, you still have a lot of camera versatility. It might not be quite to the same extent it's something like the s21 ultra, but it's almost there. So you can see some zoom capabilities here as the 2x, of course, you're going to have your portrait modes built into there. Well, it's the Samsung camera app, so whatever you're used to seeing you're going to find it here as well, including uh. This fine moment sentimental moment between Kirk and you.

Yes, it's capable of capturing such things, there's also going to be a night mode built in there. This is a super early preliminary test, but you're going to find it to be comparable with the rest of the galaxy lineup. So two very cool devices, but not the only stuff that Samsung has announced launched today. We also have the new watches as well, and I have the retail packaging here. So let's go ahead and do the unboxing galaxy watch 4 classic galaxy watch 4 this classic is in black.

So this is a 46 millimeter stainless steel case. You can see the sensors in the back military standard, 810 g, GPS, 5 ATM and guerilla glass, DX, 20, millimeter band on it. This has a rugged kind of military look to it and on my wrist I know I like this sizing might as well take advantage get the bigger display on their plus you feel, like you, have something substantial that you're wearing they do make it in different sizes. In fact, I have one with a silver white layout over here. If you want a smaller size, but the classic looks still oh, how satisfying listen very satisfying? I might get stuck doing that anyway, yeah.

So, if you want the classic look, but with a smaller scale, you can do that to 42 millimeters. The watch 4 is a slightly different style to it compared to the classic. So this one is going to be lighter weight. This is the 40 millimeter and then over here with the white band, I have the 44 and 40. The silver model you can see here you have the black front, large display ratio and then the silver bars on the side.

That kind of looks cool. Am I crazy? Yes, so this is what your charger is going to. Look like the USB type, an on one side and then a magnetic connector. I presume let me just peel this off very simple and sleek, no pins, nothing like that. It just clips right on very nice.

The watch band has this quick release style over here. As far as the buttons go, you have a red indicator on the top button, they're tactile, so they have a nice springy click to them holy guacamole. What a hell of a video we got going on here on this classic model. With the white band, we have a leather band. The classic model here that I was saying was sort of military styling.

This one has like a rubberized band similar, but slightly different from the watch four over here. This is also rubberized, and so is this uh white model right here might be partial to this one, but just if I had the black band on it, the watch four I'm sure I can get that in black. Yes, we have green and pink gold as well. I don't have those here, but yeah. You have the difference between aluminum construction on the regular model and then the classic model.

This is stainless steel. So that's why it feels uh more robust if you, if you kind of like that weighty sort of quality, feel to it features an Enos w920 chip, 1.5 gigs of ram and 16 gigs of internal storage. Oh, baby here are the sensors packed in accelerometer barometer gyro sensor, geomagnetic sensor, light sensor, Samsung, bio, active sensor, optical heart rate sensor, electrical heart sensor, also known as an ECG and bioelectrical impedance analysis BIA. These are full out health devices. These days, 20 21.

Yeah, the crown is your input method actually well on this model. You simply move between your screens with this tactile click. It's quite satisfying if you haven't tried it before now. Of course, you can also just touch the screen because it's a touch screen. So if you don't have this bezel like on these other models, then that's how you're going to interact with it.

You're right it has like a digital wow and almost does it make a noise a very slight noise. So this one has a haptic version of the physical click, I'm probably partial, to the physical click myself, but if you felt like you were missing out, you're, not you're, going to get the digital equivalent on the non-classic model, so many options to choose from which is great, especially in the watch category, where everybody wants to personalize what they've got and use it in different ways. At this moment, if I had to pick between these four I'd probably go for this classic model, the larger classic model myself. This is just far too satisfying using this all right. So I want to talk a little more about the s pen, real quick.

So I have this uh z fold pro model here now it is a different pen for these the fold right this. It says right on it, fold addition now, I presume that has something to do with the nub. Oh, they've definitely reformulated the nub, I'm just looking at it right now. That is your fold version of the nub. It's the same on this uh z fold.

The pro model as it is on just the fold edition. This is the smaller of the two that fits into the case. This is, if you're, getting real, serious and there's a little switch. A physical switch, it's also just physically bigger. Oh, what oh cool? Look how you charge it up on the end, this little cap and type c charger.

This one doesn't need to charge very cool all right, so a couple of different options for you there now, let's actually try out the input. So if I open this up, let's see what goes on here. Oh, it's! Oh! That's it! It's just working straight away! I can just oh man, oh wow, that's a whole new! That's a whole new opportunity here makes a lot of sense in your brain, like it just makes sense at this range to be scrolling like this. I think the s pen has actually come into its own on this device right here. The bigger the display, the more obvious the pen input becomes.

You have this. Like two-handed thing, you can kind of go up to the top portion of the pen and in a relaxing fashion, just scroll through documents uh, you can mark them up. Obviously, it's just an extra level of versatility there. So that's a nice addition both are capable of air command. However, the pro model is capable of air actions.

Listen, listen, oh! So satisfying! I actually thought it was the pen on the screen for a second. No, no! No! No! No! No! It's the speaker, but it's very satisfying. It's like kind of like how an electric car will have uh some sort of sound feedback to help you realize you're doing something. This is the equivalent of such things. Wow, last up item the Galaxy Buds, 2, clear and rich sound with two-way speakers: active noise, canceling, comfortable, fit and 5 to 20 hours of play time.

There we go very nice. The container in glossy white LED light on the front USB type c, on the back to charge it up USB cable included in the package, so we crack it open this model. Has this like dark gray on the inside? You can see the shape, probably have interchangeable, ear tips too. I'm guessing inside the package. Look at that.

So you can pick the right size, that's suitable for you. There's your type c. Cable to charge it up now I mentioned I have different colors. So this is this graphite sound by AKG, so that partnership is still in place, and then I have some more over here now. You might be deceived because you say, though they all look the same yeah.

The cases are the same, but then you get a sense for the color. When you crack them open. This must be olive. Come on will. Did I get that one all right? That's olive graphite! We have white the most obvious of the bunch and then lavender wow, okay, which one are you guys going for here.

This is a tougher choice, a little style aspect. We got two olive selectors, yeah mo and Kirk. You guys are merging into the same person and spending too much time together. I'm going to be boring and take graphite, and I'll save the lavender for willy do um. Although it's like that's a move, there's a move going on right here: 149 us and 189, Canadian, active noise cancellation, transparency mode 5 to 20 hours of battery life.

You do this charging orange light that never gets old. That's always convenient. Oh, there we go galaxy but sure you connect, look how tiny those are little pebble shape no stem necessary. I hear the noise-canceling kick on straight away and a gaming mode, minimize audio delay for vivid synchronized game, sound. So that's going to be like a low, latency mode, very cool.

You guys make noise like, say something check, check, check, check, check, check, check, check one two, three check one: two: three: I'm trying to do like that lip-reading challenge and I hear nothing all right, not bad wow. What an unboxing extravaganza shout out to Samsung for coming through it's the buds, it's the watches, it's the new folding stuff. I haven't been this pumped to throw my sim card into a new phone in a while I've already been telling willy do when that new fold shows up it's about to happen. I love stuff. That's different.

I've been doing this job for a little while just a couple of years. Something like that. A lot of smartphones that come through here, it's another slab and another slab, and then they show up with some folding stuff and all of a sudden, I'm like all right, maybe that science fiction future, maybe where maybe there's more to the story, maybe we're going somewhere. I don't know, maybe I can still be surprised and that's always a fun experience. You know a little of magic, it's not old on me! Yet I'll.

Tell you that right now I know when the first version came, I was like whoa wow, it's really folding exciting times it doesn't have to be another slab. You, the imagination is alive in technology. You can do something different. Furthermore, you can flip. Furthermore, you can fold it's up to you, it's cool! Let me put the sim card in actually before I do that.

Let me show you: I got a giant box of accessories, so you can even make whatever you want out of this thing. Holy look at this flip case with some style, and you can hook it on to something. Of course, we got the silicone covers. We got a cover with like a keychain style ring on it. Maybe you want to have this uh so many to choose from? Oh, here's.

The leather flip cover this seems to have like a little handle on it. Oh, and there's a magnet that pops it in right there when it's not in use, that's an executive look ready for the meeting, or I'm ready for anything. Actually, I'm ready for where to cut I'm ready to make some deals. I show up I'm like I'm ready to make a deal. I brought my leather today.

Let me just do the crazy case that Kirk was showing off check this look out. This look here is no joke. How about this for a look holy cow, turning heads, that is a style aspect to it. They actually make that same case with neon green and, of course, if you want a later case as well for the z fold, three we're doing it already available for pre-order right now, so go check that out. If you want the thinnest thing possible, of course, we also have it for the z-fold 2 previous versions.

If you want to check that out so man what a time to be alive, folding smartphones, it's real they're here to stay, we're on the third version way to go. Samsung.
