        Their products are usually expensive among all Chinese brands.

          Chinese brands are leading the way as far as innovation in the smartphone segment is concerned. Other brands are simply playing catchup.

            Whatever it ultimately turns out to be, I got hope they focus on making the slide in position one where the screen remains compact. And when the entire thing slides out, it's big for when you want that screen area. Current folding phones just can't be used when folded, which defeats the whole purpose of a folding phone.

              I think the idea is good. It could be more durable than a folding style phone.

                Yep. Slide out and roll-able display are the correct form factor for expendable phones. Not folding. Folding will always be like a phat wallet, let water and dirt in at the crease, and eventually the pixels will burn out at the joint.

                  It's better but i don't like to use Chinese smartphone .

                    If this tech is sturdy in the future, it's a better concept than foldables for me.

                          And it will be the same fail as fold.

                            Smart move. Now imagine that instead of 2 way unfold, they go for 3 or 4 way unfold... Or mixing vertical unfold with horizontal unfold...
                            In the end it will resume to the size of the gap between screens and how visually influences screen usage.

                                Yay, I love slider phones.

                                  If this tech is already stable quality-wise, i prefer this over foldables
