Samsung foldable phone. Wow.

GingerPeach — Thu, 21 Feb 2019 16:14:37 GMT

A phone, tablet, and camera rolled into one.

I'll let you all do your own research. I'd wait to buy until the bugs are worked out and the price comes down.

(Starting cost: a "mere" $1980; available: April 26)

Interesting!! Not sure I would take the plunge just yet. Maybe down the road after it’s been tested . And Apple comes out with their version.

That's cool! @GingerPeach

I read somewhere that TV screens will someday be similar to that phone...only the TVs will be 'rollable' like a piece of paper..........ETA - rollable TVs are here already.

I have a Samsung phone now and the thing is a piece of ******. I would not take a phone from them if they gave me one free.

Me, too, @sunshine45 ! I still have the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and it works like a charm! The best thing about it is the ability to change out the battery and memory card. It's a great phone and I'll be sad when I have to replace it.

@Imaoldhippie With all their problems they had I wouldn't pay 19.80 for thay new phone. I also won't purchase another Apple IPad Pro either. Had nothing but problems and apple has no idea how to repair it. I'm totally done with apple.

I wouldn't buy any of the high end phones now with 5G just months away. The new 5G tech will be quite impressive and I'd hold off on any big tech purchase until it's out and working. With transfer speeds of up to twenty gigabits per second, the things they'll be able to do will blow your mind.

I have a Samsung phone [not the newest one] and a tablet S. Not wild about the products I have. I needed a newer tablet to update the old tabS I have and I decided on a Lenovo tablet its a tab plus 4 8 inch screen. I got it though Lenovo.com I love it and I got it on sale though Lenovo during the presidents sale ..it was over three hundred dollars I got it for half the price with no shipping and handling fees. They were nice the CS that sold me the device. They answered all my questions. I never ordered a lenovo device before .. But, I will again this tablet is wonderful . I recomend this company to anyone looking for a new device.

My guess is that the screen will eventually split from constant bending right there.
