I guess i don't really see the point. Is there a strong use case out there, or is this a marge's potato? ("I just think they're neat")
When you start needing reading glasses, you'll know. I have a phone for outside the house and a tablet for home. I would much rather just have one device be both.
From a fold 7 user. Just buy a fucking tablet, lol.
Pretty soon Samsung is going to release a foldable that can become an imax screen. You just need to unfold it 1000 times, and you're set. It also needs to be unfolded 4 times to be able to answer a call, or use the 1.2 back screen to do that.
When in doubt, just add more fold.
Actually not the first tri-folded phone, but OK
I actually like this idea. It provides more girth for when I make pro-Google threads on Lemmy, set notifications to vibrate and shove the phone in my asshole.
Bring back netbooks you cowards.
Sticking with my pixel 3a xl running ubuntu touch/waydroid for a while it seems.
cant wait for the TeleVone^TM^. a phone that flips to the size of a full 4k television
This technology is wasted on smartphones. We need this on laptop screens.
Oh, like a laptop that unfolds into an ultra wide?
Woah, I cant believe Samsung created something that Huawei released over a year ago (I do belive the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate was the first tri folding phone although it didnt release outside china)
This is going to end up like the number of razor blades on disposable razors isn’t it?
1K per screen according to Sammy.
No word on if it's coming to the EU :(
My pixel 6 is dying and I'd like to get something for graphene or another less monopolized distro but there's no support for phones released this year as far as I can tell from most distros so I'm looking for one more normal phone until hopefully that ecosystem is better off.
Even the new pixels look weak from several angles It was hard to get want them after all the reviews came in.
Can use it to play D&D.
And who asked for it? They very well know that nobody will buy that.
Just get a tablet at this point.
