I'm trying to simplify my life, and not have so many different devices. I'm also an documentary filmmaker, and I know the Fold 2 has a good camera.
However, I'm wondering how it do rendering video footage (1920, not 4k). I know a lot of laptops aren't made for rendering an entire feature film, so I'm guessing the Fold may struggle with that.
However, I'm curious if anyone has tried rendering a feature film using the Fold and android video editing apps, and if so, how did it go? What were the pros and cons of doing so?
Thank you for any feedback.
Samsung does offer better cameras in the Note20 Ultra and S21 Ultra series of phones. Plus also depending on your particular style of "film making", the Fold 2 might be too fragile(especially the screen) for such activities? IMO folding screen phones in their current form are really boutique devices for the guy who must have the latest technology, regardless of practicality.
As for feature film length HD video editing and rendering, I definitely think that work flow would be much better done with an appropriate specced laptop and editing software.
but if it was someone i knew that i didn't like ...... maybe a different story.
