And for me is a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3. And today I will show you how to go through the setup process of this device
0:14
And when you put it up for the first time, you'll be presented with this screen right over here
0:18
So simply click on the only button, well, not the only one, but the middle one that you have here
0:23
And find your desired language, so I'll be obviously using English. Connect to mobile network
0:31
Now this step is optional. You don't have to do it, but you will need to have some kind of internet connection
0:37
that be through Wi-Fi or mobile. If you're basically setting this device up for the very first time
0:46
If the device came out of the box, a brand-new sealed box, then you will be required to connect to some kind of network
0:53
And from there, the device will be booted. Now, for me, this step won't happen because I already did
0:58
set it up, it's out of the box, and this is like the third time I'm doing a setup on this device
1:04
so yeah. So I'm going to select next, and then we have a few legal items to review
1:11
Obviously we need to agree to the end user license agreement, and from there we can proceed further
1:17
And then there's the Wi-Fi. As you can see, I do have the option to skip it, but like I said, if your device is brand-new
1:24
brand you out of the box it unsealed this skip button won be here here for you For some reason you are literally required to connect the Wi and once you do so the device also needs to reboot for some reason
1:36
So once you go through that, basically start over, and at that point you can just kind of finish
1:42
the setup actually. I'll be skipping this, which will also remove the option for me to log into my Google account
1:49
to throw the process. Now here we have copy apps and data, which allows me to basically make a couple of
1:55
copy, move over all my data from an older device to this one if I wanted to
1:59
But because I'm setting it up as new, I'll select don't copy. And in here we have the date and time
2:06
Now because I didn't connect to any kind of network, this shows up. If I did connect to either mobile or Wi-Fi, the date and time would be set automatically
2:15
and this page would just not show up at all. Now we have some Google services
2:21
We have location scanning and sending user-and-diagnostic data. You can read exactly what these do by tapping on the arrow rate here, and if you don't like it
2:29
turn them off. On the next page, we have the option to protect our device through either fingerprint, face
2:36
recognition, pin pattern or password. Now if you want to use either face recognition, fingerprint or both of them, you will always
2:41
be required to set up a screen lock, no matter which one you choose
2:47
That is so if something happens to your face or your finger, you still have some way of actually
2:51
accessing your device. Now for this I will set up a pattern only Let select continue redraw the same pattern confirm and this will now set it up
3:08
We have Samsung account, so if we try to skip this, it brings us with this blocker right here
3:15
Even though we're not even connected to any kind of network, it tries to jam us with their garbage
3:21
And I say garbage because this is actually just like a, a dumpster fire from Samsung
3:27
because all those applications are absolutely plagiarized from Google and additionally they come with ads because why not pay a full price for a device
3:36
or sorry full price premium price one thousand eight hundred dollars isn't small
3:42
amount to receive a phone that basically nugs you about logging into their account
3:48
for apps that have ads now just to justify my my frustration with this, I'll quickly go over all these applications and alternatives that come from Google
3:59
So we have Samsung Cloud, which is substituted by Google Cloud on every Android device
4:03
We have Bixby. Hey, Google, also every Android device. Galaxy theme, entire Play Store
4:09
Find my mobile. Find my device. Samsung Pass. I don't think Google has a name for it, but it does save your password, as you probably are aware
4:17
I usually have the option to save it when you log in somewhere. There I have Galaxy Store
4:21
Again, entirety of the Play Store that has way more apps and apps. this and lastly secure folder which Google also has but number one I also don remember how it called and number two this might be a little bit more secure than the Google alternative for once one thing that might
4:36
be a little bit better. So anyway, let's skip this, which brings us to another
4:40
page, taking care of your device now, because this is a foldable device
4:44
you have this pen flipped of things that you shouldn't do with it, basically
4:48
So, sarcastically going over those, quickly in abbreviation of this, First one, don't press any sharp objects or any kind of hard objects on the display
5:01
because it's, after all, still made out of plastic. You can use an S-pen on it, whoopty-do
5:08
When you're folding the device, don't keep anything between the display like keys, cards and so on
5:13
because it's still made out of plastic. The device isn't dust-proof, so anything that will get between the hinges will make this
5:21
device an absolute nightmare to use. But it is waterproof with an IPX8 resistance
5:26
And then below that we have the don't peel off the cover
5:30
the screen protection that is applied to the device by default. It might look like screen protection, but it's not. It's just a screen
5:36
And lastly, the device comes with magnets, so keep it away from anything that can be affected by magnets
5:43
And once we press next, we can actually finish up the setup
5:48
And there we go. So, if you found this very helpful, don't forget to hit like, subscribe
