An interesting concept but i dont think people would need 2 different sizes in tablet mode. A phone that rolls out into a decent sized tablet would suit me as i could use it as a phone for normal usage and a tablet for gaming. Saying that though anything with a mechanism will probably be pretty heavy which is acceptable in tablet form but i wouldn't want to use a phone that weighs as much as a tablet. My oneplus 8 is just about as heavy as i can put up with for gaming so only time will tell. Also Tcl may have experience making screens but the majority are cheap and of the budget variety.

This is just for bragging rights that they are the first to unveil such design. Unless they perfect a folding phone or even a rollable one, this is nothing to be looked forward to.

I would buy this in a heartbeat if Jerry Rig Everything proves the screen to be durable, that is the only caveat to replace my aging Mate20x-5g. IMHO, Perfect size for the Fone at 6.89" those who whinges and complained its too big can go and buy tons of others tiny-med sized fones.
TCL can basically monopilise the XL category if the product is durable and have guaranteed support for at least 4 years. There has been nothing bigger than 6.8" outer screen (excl Flips, Fold2); only Gaming fones like Black shark Pro 7.2" has it bigger. Would have bought it if XIaomi does not very annoyingly failed to include basic features like NFC to save a few dollars for NFC chip literally is a MUST have is just plain silly when you are charging ~USD $1000 fone-They lost my business.
Xiaomi seems to think Gamers don't use NFC for Payments, and its "genius" idea that buyers who pays more than $1000 for a fone does not need to use digital wallet in 2021. FYI, I don't even Game at all just wanted a Big Screen sized fone for productivity and shame Samsung's upcoming possibly Note 21/22 does not expand to tablet sized at all, so this would be a great alternative and if its possible to add Pen support then Perfect fone for me!

LG would have been the first to release a rollable device but they chickened out.

Good idea. Needs to be smaller though. Even folded that thing is way too big.
