        PiCosm, 18 Jun 2018You mean similar to the concept camera here, RollaVision.com ?More like design with 2 cylinders, for better handling in any place and toughness, like one patented by google "Θ_Θ". I would add rollable battery to the back for better weight balance and handling

            As far as i remember, Sony did this in 2011 with Tablet P and was actually beautiful. This thing looks hideous.

              They CANCELLED it because it was BAD. They are working on a DIFFERENT foldable phone NOW which will be BETTER. Is it CLEAR now?

                        The Axon M looks better, it seems to have a thinner border between the screens. But I'd love something like that with a foldable screen, so that it's all seamless, with no border at all. It would be like something from a sci-fi movie, and also really convenient.

                          judging from the photos, it is just some Chinese street phone seller glued 2 screens together and call it Project V.

                              I dont believe those pictures. The first one shows the date and time on both screens, doesn't make any sense at all. Looks like what someone just made up for the news.

                                This could be an early developers prototype, with little resemblance to the production ready product.
                                For developing the software, and test the general idea of a display that can be unfolded, they don't have to have a display that can actually be folded. Producing that kind of display for early developer units makes little sense, as that would make them much more expensive, and by doing it this way, they could make more units an distribute to developers.

                                  Great they dropped it... ZTE's foldable Phone was better this...

                                    Good thing it was cancelled. It's like paying for two phones combined into 1 single device.

                                      Would be great to end this "screen ratio war".
