Do u guys have the problem of using gboard in the inner screen.

Open a new chrome tab, type something on the address bar, then press outside the gboard spacebar or enter or other lower tabs (miss-press) and the keyboard will disappear. Annoying as hell. Type something in search bar then when press enter button and if u miss-press the enter button, the whole keyboard disappears along with what I typed.nhave to balek type agn.

It will happen on my floating wsapp windows also. Certain apps will happen, certain apps won't.

I'm typing now without any issues with miss-press

Go to app launch > waze > toggle auto off and make sure all 3 manual toggles are enabled. Thank me later or can donate to my link lol. These are minor bugs bcoz china phones like to migrate /clone their china rom then repackage as global rom. Just simple tweaks will make things work again.

Changed to 3 buttons gestures will mitigate this issue, or use other keyboards like MS keyboard

Ya I have the same issue, whether split or merged gboard. Hopefully it's a bug and fixed soon

Dunno whether toggle on the keyboard edge swipe protection would help.

Dear all, i finally can review after a week of intensive usage. I am currently using v3 and fold4 together, Fold4 used to be my main phone, now it became my spare phone after i gotten v3.

Batt Life
I made a habit recently to turn on airplane mode when i go to sleep every night for both of my foldables.. what surprise me is that after i woke up, v3 batt life only dropped 1% while Fold4 dropped 5%. There was once i forgot to turn on airplane mode... v3 batt life dropped 8% when fold4 dropped 13%.. so turning on airplane mode during sleep is a way to save battery.. i also found v3 battery outlasting my fold4 in terms of gameplay.. i played candy crush on v3 for an hour.. battery dropped 3%.. fold 4 dropped 10%..

OS
Seems like i am having problem with Android Auto on v3 but none on Samsuck. But it didn't really bother me as i am using samsuck as my 2nd phone.. Still learning how to use Magic OS and thanks to the bros here.. learning makes easy. There are times when my magic OS will hang abit when using facebook but after i off the app and open again.. it works wonders..

Hardware
i have used samsuck fold 2 & 4 before joining the honor v3 family. All i can say is the v3 screen is big and light. the dream of having a candy phone size exterior screen and open up to a foldable big screen has come. Am grateful on how sincere Honor has given to their customers compared to Samsuck. The free inner case is awesomely good and the fast charge of 66W makes charging amazingly fast.

Conclusion
After using both foldables together, the sleek and slim v3 won my heart over the fold4. The long lasting battery life is another convincing factor for the switch. So for those who are still thinking.. don't wait anymore..
... am waiting for Oppo Find N5 or OnePlus Open 2 and compare the camera specs.

easier for me to migrate since I'm using Oppo's Find x6 pro now.

not very impressed with V3's cameras.

How come yr android auto got issue? Actually my android auto is very stable compared to Samsung.

The only thing I don't like about this phone is it's a dust magnet. I totally don't miss fold. It's a failed product by Samsung.
