I still ask the question...... Is it a phone trying to be a tablet or a tablet trying to be a phone?I'll admit it's cool tech and I want it because of the geek in me but I already know it won't fit my needs. I'll be sitting back on this one. Now if it were a folding Note that's a different story.![]()
I think it's for folks who do basic phone functions that will be fine with a small screen but when they want to sit back and consume content they can unfold for a bigger screen. So phone first tablet second.I still ask the question...... Is it a phone trying to be a tablet or a tablet trying to be a phone?
I don't think it does either job well so bother.
One of the reasons why I also get carrier branded phones. AT&T handles warranty replacements so I don't have to deal with Samsung.Anyone who have ever dealt with Samsung customer *service* would steer well clear of the Fold, I love my Notes and prefer Samsung phones but to many things can still go wrong with the Fold
When I start hearing prices like this, I think about building a new gaming PC, and STILL having change left...!?!
The Huawei device is a nicer concept visually because it folds outward. As a result is has a bigger screen closed, but that has got to be a nightmare to keep the screen from getting damaged. Huawei carrier compatibility is a big issue as well.I think it's for folks who do basic phone functions that will be fine with a small screen but when they want to sit back and consume content they can unfold for a bigger screen.

For me I constantly consume and create content so having a device that I'd constantly keep unfolding because of the small screen would get annoying. The Note 10+ is a good balance for screen size for my tasks. And when I want to sit back and really get into it I'll either connect to my HP Lapdock when I'm out and about and use DeX or connect to my DeX dock setup at home.
It boggles the mind that their customer service is so poor. You would think they would do a better job since they sell a millions of devices.Anyone who have ever dealt with Samsung customer *service* would steer well clear of the Fold, I love my Notes and prefer Samsung phones but to many things can still go wrong with the Fold

Interesting. Didn't think of cases for the fold and trowing away 2k on a drop test...Ouch!Also want to see what sort of cases the case manufacturers come up with to protect the GF when it's open. Those drop tests will be interesting to watch as well.
Not interested in the fold unless it's free
no, $2k is ridiculous.
HahahahahahahaCurious to see if anyone is ocnserdinf trading in their brand spanking new Note10 for a Galaxy Fold.
