      I wanna phone like Nokia E90 concept, foldable oled is too expensive and too worrying of dust and durability also too hard for maintenance

        Anonymous, 31 Oct 2019Is it possible, that somebody might steal it from a pocket ... moreOr you can sell it for $1800+ on ebay, but who needs an extra measly $1800? Might as well throw it in the garbage as you suggest.

            Is it possible, that somebody might steal it from a pocket thinking it's a wallet, only to discover it's a Samsung fold, and throw it back in disgust?

              They are just copying ideas of others. Samsung should produce something new like S10

                So now putting your phone in the pocket you won't have to worry about it bending. Not but seriously this is pointless. The hassle of opening your phone with 2 hands in quick moments like taking a picture. No.

                  No, this is PERFECT for me.

                  A vertical folding OLED flip phone, saves space especially as screens are kinda the norm at over 6"

                  Samsung upgrading the flips of the early 2000's

                  SOLD when they arrive imo.

                        The phone looks like a remote control when unfolded.

                          Anonymous, 30 Oct 2019Just a copy of Motorola RAZRHow is it just a copy when the RAZR folding phoe isnt even a thing ? not even oficial

                            Anonymous, 30 Oct 2019Just a copy of Motorola RAZRLol, you think a phone that folds from top to bottom is a copy? You think Motorola should be able to patent such a thing? It's like saying windows should only open sideway, and anyone with a window opening top to bottom is a 'copy'. What a strange way to think.

                              waiting for the device to be delivered to get a hands on experience.

                                    Every 160 mm+ smartphones should have clamshell version. And again will be palmsized like at 2000's

                                      I don't really understand why a lot of people here want only one solution that fit them and consider everything else as trash.
                                      As a consumer, choice is the best thing possible. People don't have to have the same taste...
                                      I don't really like clamshell phone, but it will not hurt me if people like it, who care?

                                        Jazz, 30 Oct 2019Wholeheartedly disagree. a 5.5-6" screen is perfect for me ... moreFor me as a Note phones user I don't have any problem with big phones and display and as well as 20mm thick phones ! So I want to get a foldable phone with 8 or even 10 inch in the future! And With s pen will be fantastic !
