Have you been waiting for a foldable smartphone?

I don't think that such feature will be durable enough, I think I just love my phone as it is.

It’s clever, but it doesn’t grab my interest.

I'm not convinced this concept will take off. I see this as an expensive, niche product. Firstly, it'll be heavy in the hand and in the pocket. It'll also be thick, kind of negating it's small size. As the screen folds out to a small tablet, battery life will be a major issue.

And as so many people have ipads and tablets, I can't see much of the use. It'll only be handy for those fewer and fewer people who only have a phone.

If the open version were 16/9 I'd be interested.

I'm not convinced by what I have seen so far.

Those who have tablets that get old and no longer work, also have phones, may be more interested in this for their next purchase.

Do you carry your phone and tablet everywhere?

Only carry my phone.
Heard the foldable S10 is gonna be 1750.00

No
I don't want it.
Let Samsung keep it.

What phone do you have now?

 

[planomaic]

Nope, It is just a phone, not a laptop

I would like to see what it's all about but that's it. I don't think it's practical for my daily usage.

Foldable phone has to be easy to break. And since it gets dropped all the time and its in my pocket. Why would I even consider a foldable phone. Who cares about insurance it you break it easy.

Most people don't drop their valuables on a regular basis.

I'm wondering how cases and screen protectors are going to work.

 

[jhimmel]

Really need a compelling use case to justify the tech. Though I do like seeing multiple manufactures working on the tech. Should lead to some interesting developments soon.

I'd have plenty of uses for such a device at my work, but this one isn't quite there yet.

 

[cardboard60]

No

Phone MFG are too proud of them.

We use Citrix and Xen Mobile at work. I'm just waiting for Citrix to be delivered over Xen Mobile and then I could do absolutely everything via Dex and tablet mode. That would be a pretty big game changer for me as I'm often at different offices.
