Title: Foldable Phone Screens - This has been long awaited
Post by: BLUEVOODU on March 31, 2019, 10:29:40 PM
I 1st heard about foldable / bendable phones back in 2008-2009.   Nokia was Research and Developing a technology that allowed bendable phones.... NOW... it's not exactly foldable, but it's not far off.   I'm not sure who originally came up with the "foldable phone" original concept, but several are releasing.   They are quite expensive too.   Foldable phones really brings us to a new / interesting era of cell phones and portable devices.

Here are a few resources:

Samsung is working on a new foldable smartphone that's nothing like the Galaxy Fold - bgr.com (https://bgr.com/2019/03/28/galaxy-fold-release-date-coming-second-generation-design/)

There are a lot of contenders right now.   Samsung Galaxy Fold will retail for $2000... according to price estimates.   I need a barfing Emoticon... or emoji as the new cool kids call them.   ;D

The coolest one I've seen is a new foldable screen Motorola Razr.   It REALLY has a classic design... is larger... and looks really cool. Here's a "concept" video:
