Samsung Galaxy Fold: Hands-on

We tried out the Galaxy Fold’s hinged foldable phone design. With a huge 7.3-inch screen on the inside and a smaller 4.6-inch screen on the outside, Samsung is pushing the boundaries of what a phone should be. Here’s everything you need to know about the Fold.

  Interesting how iNet I mean cNet only seem to be liking the comments that are downplaying the device. Smh, Your bias is too brazen, even during the review, Knock it off. For $300 less you can get a maxed out iPhone that doesn’t even have a quarter of what this phone is offering, besides “ecosystem” which is how apple sheep spell Stockholm syndrome lol

  It’s just a stupid tablet. I don’t like the “phone” it’s HIDEOUS. It’s long and awkward. An iPad is much better and a whole lot more affordable.

Bunch of hypocrites in the chat. Everyone’s lauding, praising, and even defending the prices. I don’t believe you like it, you’re just trying to display that you’re forward thinking and you like the novelty. I’ll wait till I see these everywhere and become ubiquitous. I doubt 5% of ppl buying smartphones will even buy one, but 95% of comments are saying “omgz its amazing I’ve been waiting for something like dis”… cool, stop signaling how much you like it and actually go buy it… no? You won’t? Oh, that’s a curious thing ?
It’s a gimmick and ppl are excited for the novelty and are blind to any and all drawbacks.

This is a game changer. Apple’s response in two years: we’ve innovated the foldable phone form factor. You can have the all new iFold, next year, at the starting low price of $4,000.

Galaxy fold looks very promisingly useful for everyday usability

If this could fold the other way, the smaller version would be much better, but I’m guessing design would not allow that in this point in time, maybe in the future

No headphone, no micro SD in a phone/tablet at least for me is a incomplete product for the price.
