Samsung Galaxy Fold Unboxing & First Impressions

**Unboxing and First Impressions of the Samsung Galaxy Fold**

The Samsung Galaxy Fold, a highly anticipated device with a unique foldable design, has finally arrived. As we open the box, we're greeted by a comprehensive set of accessories that come bundled with the phone.

The accessory package is quite impressive, featuring a case that fits snugly around the phone's folded state, a sim tool, and a USB to USB-C adapter. Additionally, the box includes a USB-C cable and several adapters for charging the device. It's worth noting that the Galaxy Fold doesn't come with traditional wired headphones, instead opting for the innovative Samsung Galaxy Buds. This is likely due to the phone's focus on wireless connectivity and portability.

**Setting Up the Device**

Once we've gone through the setup process, we're presented with the home screen of the Galaxy Fold. The device boasts a sleek design that belies its complex technology. When looking at the phone dead-on, the folded state is not immediately visible, and it doesn't appear to be an issue in everyday use.

We take note of how easily the phone can be closed and opened, with a satisfying snap when both processes occur. The device's hinge mechanism feels sturdy, and we're pleased to see that it comes with a secure closure system to prevent accidental opening or closing.

**The External Display**

When not in use, the Galaxy Fold's external display takes up a relatively small portion of the phone's body. While this may seem like an issue for some users, we find ourselves enjoying the compact design and appreciate how easily we can swipe around the screen using our finger.

A quick test with Google Maps reveals that the device remembers where you left off, making it convenient to continue navigating even when the phone is closed.

**First Thoughts on the Galaxy Fold**

Overall, our initial impressions of the Samsung Galaxy Fold are overwhelmingly positive. The device feels premium and solid in our hands, and its unique design has won us over. We're excited to explore the full capabilities of this innovative device and share our experiences with you through a series of upcoming videos.

Whether it's battery life, camera comparisons, or day-in-the-life content, we'll be putting the Galaxy Fold through its paces to give you an honest understanding of what to expect from this cutting-edge smartphone. In the meantime, we'd love to hear your thoughts and questions about the device in the comments below.

**Shooting the Video**

For those interested in how we shot our video, I used a 360-degree camera called insta 360 to capture the unboxing process from multiple angles. This allowed us to showcase the device's design and features in a unique and immersive way. While it was a fun challenge to work with this type of equipment, we'd love to hear your feedback on our approach – did you enjoy the different views and perspectives offered by the 360 camera?

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enokay guys I was surprised with something I think you want to check out I definitely want to check out I had a little bit time I'm actually with Samsung to check out the galaxy old and we got to kind of play with it for maybe about 45 minutes after a 45 minute presentation about it but they ended up handing me one to borrow on the way out so I figured I don't usually do unboxings but like this might worn one right so here we have the galaxy fold in what I mentioned is not a retail packaging oh it could be I like it alright so you have to unfold it through there same time let's see what you did and like it raises what I imagine is actually the retail box up through the middle on this to the like a platform which is attached by the way and no there's nothing else in this box it's just for the presentation like that kind of a sucker goes with it okay and then here is what I imagine is probably the retail package right also I see you there right the logo big bolts okay let's open up the slides out like that anyway there you go so it's presented to you unfolded which i think is interesting cuz it's kind of that's probably the more impressive thing to do right then the folded bar because right in a second we'll get to that let's get to what else is in the box really quick we have oh okay it comes with a case we were told about this actually so the first one they're like oh there's a case for it like me and I think Marquez was sitting across from me we're all just kind of looking you sure they're coming how does that work but now it makes a lot more sense it's two separate pieces this one goes in one side this goes in the other and then the hinge just isn't really covered did you tell it to this obviously it does come with it and it is it's Kevlar it's like the same link will profess kind of material it's nice at least they give you one let's have a sim tool Oh something else that's nice that they give you their galaxy buds I've actually been using this for a while I'm probably gonna do a video on them soon if you guys still want me to you don't feel like it's too late they're like two thousand dollars so you know we should get like something and then ever charger we have our USB to USB C adapter USB C cable and we have a bunch of adapters basically for our Samsung Galaxy blood so it almost feels like the Galaxy buds are the headphones that normally would come with the phone right instead of having a wired headphone the usually does you get galaxy buzz instead so that's that's kind of why does nothing ever come like go backing the mocks the way it came out now of course that's all that's in the box let's talk about the phone I mean big right not not a small thing tablet II sighs which is kind of the concept and there we go so finally went through all of the setup process and everything and we're here at the home screen a few things just for first impressions we have the fold you can you can see it I'm just letting you know right now if I turn the phone like this or not what you guys can see on the camera but you can see it you can also kind of feel it a little bit but I'm gonna tell you right now that when looking at it dead-on you can't see it and it doesn't bother me at all like I thought it was going to bother me a lot more than it does I'm gonna do a bunch of more videos on this obviously do some like real world day-in-the-life camera comparisons battery life all that fun stuff and we'll see if maybe my mood changes about that but honestly right now I don't care it's it's beautiful also maybe you can close the phone like this it has like a nice snap to it when it closes almost as like a sound it also has a snap to it when it opens up if the spring wants it to go out but the spring will only push it out to about there I kind of wish you push it all the way out personally but it's okay from the biggest ill-used to that and once it's out now it's locked let's go from the outside so there's our outside screen and this is Andrew right like it's just a very tiny obviously like the rest of you I also wish this was bigger but first-gen product maybe it's you know we'll get there but if you swipe around here up like it means literally like it's Andrew right it's what you expect just in a tiny form so let's do something like Google Maps we can kind of like move around and Google Maps alright that's cool and then when you open it it brings you right to where you left off there you go and other that like it's I'm honestly surprised I think everybody in that room was about how solid this feels it feels like a real proper product first off but then also like it feels like a premium product there's something about it it's nice okay that's kind of it from super quick first impressions and an unboxing I'm going to be doing a bunch more videos on this Woori hit me up on social though at the unlocker on Instagram Twitter or Facebook whatever with anything you guys
