      I’d settle for something like the Red Magic 11 with better cameras from them. Saving a couple millimeters instead of having a bigger battery and flat back is silly.

    This would be the coolest shit ever if these phones didn’t have a reputation for breaking so easily. I had the Z Fold 4 and after I left it partially folded for about 30 mins in my car while I was driving, something went wrong with the hinge and it could no longer open fully flat. Unacceptable for a device at that price range.

    I want us to go back when it comes to smartphones, not forward. Bring back the holy trinity of removable battery, headphone jack, and SD card slot.

      Yeah, even as a foldable enthusiast, I see no reason for this to exist. A second hinge is just another failure point.

      Wake me up when the first cylindrical, rollable phone comes out. Until then, I’m happy with my Fold 7.

    This is going to end up like the number of razor blades on disposable razors isn’t it?

    Woah, I cant believe Samsung created something that Huawei released over a year ago (I do belive the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate was the first tri folding phone although it didnt release outside china)

    Sure buddy, whatever keeps the iPhone nightmares at bay for another year. But does the battery last three times as long? Who cares about screens if I have to charge twice a day.

      You know that fat British guy that someone is posting shorts of on Youtube/Tiktok? “I was working for a company and their main product wasn’t selling. They asked me if they should lower the price, I told them ‘no, make your entry level product more shit.’ So they took their entry level product and added roofing nails to the seat cushions. Overnight, sales of their main product skyrocketed because no one was buying their entry level anymore.” That guy? He said he likes Samsung’s folding phone because “I’m old and my vision is failing, so I like the larger screen of the Fold. But you can’t sell that, because it’s not cool to sell products for the old and infirm.”
