[ad_1] Samsung’s foldable display tech won’t just be limited to book-like phones akin to the Galaxy Fold. The company used its annual Developer Conference to preview a vertically folding, clamshell-style form factor. The company only said it was “exploring” the concept as part of its overall work on foldable devices, but it clearly put some […]

TCL’s tri-fold prototype phone folds in thirds like an accordion
[ad_1] As CNET points out, it ends up looking something like a Z or a taco holder. You can also fold all of the screens together so you have a form factor that looks more like the phones we’re used to, only it’s a thick stack of screens. While it’s great to see companies experimenting […]
Samsung’s Galaxy Fold Premier Service debuts in the US
[ad_1] Premiere Service also includes a discount on the first replacement for the folding screen, lowering it to $149 whether you visit specified service locations or get an expedited mail-in. You might need it, too, given that tests have suggested the inner screen might not last as long as Samsung estimates. The extra support is, […]
Samsung’s Galaxy Fold will have support from ‘hundreds’ of apps
[ad_1] The news also comes alongside details of how Android 10 improves foldable phone support. It’s better at resizing apps and resuming them across screens, while developers have a new emulator to help them test multi-display switching. You should see more apps that work with foldable phones as a matter of course, even if there […]
You can once again pre-register to buy the Samsung Galaxy Fold
[ad_1] To be clear, pre-registering to purchase a device is not the same pre-ordering one. In this case, you’re not putting down any money before the phone is available to buy. In fact, it’s currently unclear whether Samsung plans to take Fold pre-orders this time around; there’s no mention of whether you can pre-order the […]
Our foldable future is running a little late, and that’s OK
[ad_1] I have no doubt that Samsung believed in the Galaxy Fold’s usability and potential. Even so, it’s clear in hindsight that the company was in a rush to get these things out the door, and didn’t think through some key design decisions. That top-most layer of protective plastic? Yeah, it shouldn’t have been made […]
Samsung chief says he pushed Galaxy Fold ‘before it was ready’
[ad_1] Don’t expect an answer on when (or if) the Fold might come back, though. He noted that Samsung had over 2,000 devices in the field and “defined all the issues,” but wouldn’t narrow down when the foldable handset might resurface. The company has largely been mum on its plans to revive the device ever […]
Samsung’s Galaxy Fold delay could extend through June?
[ad_1] The strange case of Samsung’s Galaxy Fold may drag on throughout the summer, according to a report in The Korea Herald. The outlet — which reported in May that Samsung would reach a conclusion on the launch in a couple of days — now says that according to company officials, if it were going […]
Samsung still doesn’t know when the Galaxy Fold will launch
[ad_1] Not that Samsung necessarily wants to rush. The original version was inherently fragile, with a screen layer that was all too tempting to peel off and gaps that made it easy for debris to damage the foldable display. If Samsung is going to sell the Fold, it has to reassure buyers that their $1,980 […]
Lenovo stole a fan’s video to promote the foldable Motorola RAZR
[ad_1] The clip Lenovo showed to the press yesterday appears to be cut together from a number of renders that was first seen in a video titled “Motorola RAZR 2019 – Introduction & First Look!” that was uploaded to by Khan to YouTube on February 9th of this year. Many of the images in Lenovo’s […]
