Hands-on with TCL’s foldable and rollable phone concepts

TCL’s experimental phone designs include a foldable device that bends both ways and a phone with a screen that rolls out from its edges.

    More mechanical involves more problems will arise of the products

      Good thing you’re not the target audience for these types of phones. ????

    Call it a hunch, but I dont think TCL is to worried about LGs phone concepts ????

    Samsung will come to the rescue like always.

    I sure hope LG doesn’t overtake Samsung in the foldable space

    I use the LGV60 Thinq 5G Dual Screen and I find it very useful for my daily needs. I keep the dual screen connected, all the time. I do not think I could use my phone without the extra screen anymore. I am a person that likes to keep things up front like chat messages, while doing other tasks like watching videos. For me, this would be a nice price and phone. My thoughts are more on the Pixel Fold, as that seems like a phone that will come out sooner.

    Another very good use case is when I am watching a video, chatting (or working) while I am using a fordable, pocket sized keyboard with trackpad. The combination, with a phone stand, allows me to use it almost like a mini laptop that I can carry around in a purse.

    CNET has hired many attractive female reviewers. I love how Michael Fisher interacts with Lexy Savvides on Twitter. I think these devices are cool but they’re just concepts. Releasing an actual product is way different.

    I have a ZFold3 and I love it

    Still have a TCL action camera from like 10 years ago that still works great.

    foldables are a terrible concept and won’t take off

    Twice we get to see it unroll, oh no we don’t, we cut to Ms. Pink hair because we clicked on this to see her not the phones right? Get off the screen lady.

  24. Michael Balkos

    LG stopped making phones

    the fold roll is cool but the scratching of the screen is going to be hard.
    the screen is still the weakest point of all folding and rolling screens

    If you give me a “Surface duo” with a screen outside too. I’m sold! I hate the middle part of Samsung devices, I love the double screen on Surface duo

    price?

  28. Caleb Allen

    I have only one word to say about all of this…… PINK

    No the biggest problem is durability. What good is it if it can’t stand picket use or kids .

    Fold and roll would be great, but I wouldnt buy TCL’s version. They’re not established enough, I’d rather wait on Samsung. They’d definitely have to cut down on the chunkiness though, the bezels look horrific. I’m pretty sure Samsung’s variant will be very promising, this display’s quality looks subpar as of now.
