[ad_1] A leaked video shared on Twitter shows a Surface Duo opened just slightly. The time and notifications are clustered on the right side of the screen, and you can swipe to dismiss them. You’ll also be able to preview and decline or accept calls. Peek pic.twitter.com/vnawzLrf6k — WalkingCat (@h0x0d) February 26, 2020 This “peek” […]

Watch Samsung’s Galaxy Fold fall woefully short of 200,000 folds
[ad_1] Using a machine built by SquareTrade, CNET repeatedly opened and closed the Galaxy Fold for hours on end. It held up for 119,380 folds (about 14 hours) before the screen and hinge were damaged. That’s less than the estimated 200,000 times a person would open and close the Fold over a five-year period. Of […]
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 […]
Huawei delays the launch of its foldable phone until September
[ad_1] Foldable phones were meant to be the hot new thing this year, but sadly the technology clearly isn’t ready for the real world. Samsung seeded review units of the Galaxy Fold but journalists quickly found that the devices began to break after just days of use. The bending screen has an air gap around […]
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 […]
Watch Motorola’s upcoming RAZR phone fold up
[ad_1] Last month, we saw the first leaked images, and while you could see a hinge, the phone was displayed open. Now, in addition to demonstrating the phone’s foldability, this video does a close up on the hinge and teases the black, red and blue color options. Unfolded, the phone matches the photos leaked last […]
Samsung is reportedly delaying the Galaxy Fold due to display issues
[ad_1] We’ve asked Samsung for comment. However, the apparent scoop comes hours after the tech giant postponed launch events in Hong Kong and Shanghai. The display problems have varied. Some were the result of a misunderstanding about the Fold’s main display — reviewers mistakenly assumed a layer on top was a screen protector they could […]
