      James, 29 Jun 2018Still waiting for completely bezel less phone from Samsung ... moreOh, no reason really. Just want to see if they capable of doing it. It simply a scientific achievement. Like going to the moon and mars. Unnecessary but people still want to do it anyway. Showcasing technological prowess. I dont even need it to commercialize too. Just show it at MWC or CES and we are done. End of story. Moving on.

Next they'll sell us a phone without a screen claiming it's better because you dont' need to get it out of your pocket, and it's now not got a screen you'll break when you drop it, but it has a wirelessly connected set of glasses which projects the 'screen' directly onto your retinas. The phone will still cost $1000. The glasses? Another $900 on top. Then another $100 for wireless earbuds, and another $250 for a wireless speaker.

                James, 29 Jun 2018Still waiting for completely bezel less phone from Samsung ... moreGive us front facing stereo speakers instead of 100% stb ratio which only makes the phone more fragile.

                      What's with completely bezel less phone? That would make the phone more fragile and there is no need for such a large STB ratio.

                        What now, Apple?
                        You want to copy Samsung and pretend to be the first ever company to have this innovation?

                          Useless and expensive and gimmick.

                            This concept images was shown in time of galaxy s3, with same wallpaper. Still we are dreaming it like a fiction, lol

                                This is still fiction. Still there is not battery for this, motherboard also. In my opinion I'm all against foldable device. This is not way forward but rather going back to past and going to service center more and more.

                                  'Goes into production this summer' sounds 100 times more convincing than previous years news that keep saying 'Samsung is rumored to build a foldable phone'. Finally, the real deal is coming. Still waiting for completely bezel less phone from Samsung too.

                                    All consumers will be close eye on the pricing off this phone,so it might be a gamble Samsung is taking investing so much money and time,into a phone loads will not be afford to buy,What type of battery will Samsung be using on this Foldable Phone?
