    i honestly like the idea, but as a first gen device, it really feels like a prototype. give it two to three iterations then let’s see. oh and the price is ridiculous.

    I think Dell’s Duet concept with 2 screens was the best idea would love to have that

    Comes off as a gimmick. I’d rather have a streaming device (iPad) separate from my work station.

    In ten years if the price goes down a 10th of it. And durability goes up 10times or something. That’ll be awesome. ♥

    And the sound quality for those movies? Cool device with a descent display.

    Good review.

    Wooow. Apple better step it up. But I can see that screen wearing out pretty quick.

    When they can solve the bumpy look in the part that curves, then it’ll be good.

    All I want is a phone with a slide out game controller like the Sony Xperia Play had.

    Should have called it the FOLeD or fOLED something dumb like that.

    Sorta like it, more as a giant screen and a slim keyboard on a desktop.

  17. MS TK

    August 31, 2022 at 8:24 pm

    I would use that for music production if I could but out price range.

    Wow……..

    Imagine you read your daily newspaper on this baby on the metro or subway !

    There are laptops with far better specs at lower prices with 17” touch screens. This is just an Ad disguised as a review

  22. Joao Roman

    August 31, 2022 at 11:14 pm

    The price is not ridiculous. Wanting cutting edge technology with regular tech prices is ridiculous.

  23. Evan Yoohoo

    August 31, 2022 at 11:28 pm

    What we really need is a 24″ *curved* screen that rolls up into a robust tube, and has 3 telescopic needle-legs to lift it high above the table.
    Then I’d bring my own, actually nice, keyboard.
    That’s what a portable computer with today’s technology should look like, not this silliness.
    (1) No crease (2) Crazy ergonomic (3) Big enough that 16:9 is fine for work and web, while still fully utilized by video.

  24. Steve Cousins

    That’s an intriguing concept! Superb review as always.

    Best review by far. Short and straight to the point, the only one that talked about the thichness and price. Thanks! Still hoping to be a much better 2nd gen

    This is not NEW. Lenovo has had one out for 2 years. This is pathetic coverage

    Really like this form factor. I can’t wait to see how much they improve in 10 years.

    Apple is so behind.” So sad

    Price point is way way too high!! Samsung fold 4 is a better choice compared to this

    I think Lenovo did this first… lol

  39. iAmDickel

    September 1, 2022 at 11:45 am

    For a 3500 i would get an ipad pro and a windows laptop and call it a day and spend the extra on some of my daily needs

  40. Shola Speaks

    September 1, 2022 at 12:30 pm

    A good idea would be if the entire keyboard’s backside could also be used as both a drawing surface or a massive track pad with haptic feedback. Even better if it had a small slotted stylus

  41. Biodelic

    September 1, 2022 at 12:35 pm

    I find these creases just absolutely annoying. No doubt, the technology is impressive and has come a long way, but the creases just keep me away from all things foldable.

  42. CuteKING

    He try to mislead about product

  43. blaster915

    September 1, 2022 at 2:15 pm

    Interesting concept. If they can do better than the Lenovo one, work the kinks, I could be interested

  44. _Killazania_

    September 1, 2022 at 2:55 pm

    This is kinda experimental and I love it

  45. Anirudha Dev

    Money doesn’t jiggle jiggle, It folds ????

  46. Zhang Anthony

    It might be a nice trend, but practicality wise, 2 screens with very thin bezel in between them would be much more durable and doesn’t break much continuity. It can also be much thinner/lighter to carry. I remember MS was going to make one, but got delayed, not sure if it’s cancelled. I really hoped that one to become a thing.

    Terrible media consumption aspect ratio.

  48. Supersymmetry

    September 1, 2022 at 6:12 pm

    In comparison, Apple AR headset sounds like a bargain.

    Perfect for reading and media creation

Where you live shapes your relationships, your emotions and even how long you live, says community designer Zach DeBoer. After studying what a century of building cities around cars has done to downtowns in the US, he turned to lessons from some of the most walkable, carefully designed streets in the country: the ones inside Disney theme parks. With ideas ranging from narrower roads to buildings that pull you around the next corner, he offers a practical guide to turning ordinary downtowns into magical places people want to explore. (Recorded at TEDxSioux Falls on May 5, 2023)
