man! this is a smart way of designing a foldable phone without having to fit multiple screens (external+ internal), just have the same screen folding this way. And they even managed to maintain the camera zone with the sufficient thickness to fit the modules.
Well done

    I wonder why they chose the 778G over the 7+G2. Possibly to hit a lower price point, although that's kinda weird for such a fashion focused device. Of course, there's still a 800% storage markup! Can't forget that.

      Not really keen on it, but credit to Honor for the innovation and creativity/concept.

      Just not sure how practical this will be 🤣

      I can see celebrities wearing it to events & fashion shows. But I don't think it's an everyday type of daily driver!

        Cpt.Power, 19 Sep 2023Noone or just you??? Know several people who would insta b... moreYeah, 'several'. More like only a handful.

          Hats off to the engineers and product designers at Honor. This is truly a creatively designed device that's sets it apart from the "every device looks almost the same" Design philosophy the majority of the market has arrived to.

          I have to admit that I am quite impressed by the ingeniutity of the people at Honor.

                Most china things are unique because they look always different compared to for example Samsung or Apple where all phones looks alike for several years in a row.

                    I can imagine how stupid looking it is, if someone really put this on side of ear to make a phone call.

                      Anonymous, 19 Sep 2023The fact that it is able to have an outward fold is already... moreExactly. I feel like this product was released more to gain publicity for their foldable lineup. I hope they release an actual serious version with flagship specs in the future.

                                Snapdragon 778G? Now that's interesting. This is probably the first ever non-flagship foldable phone. 778G is still more than enough for everyday use.

The hardest phone to make a text message. But that thing is indeed an utter beauty. Had the 7280 back then, an boy, it's literally a head turner. Like a Pagani-in-your-pocket head turner.
                                      And it's very repairable as well. The whole thing is connected via snap locks that you could easily pull open. Shame they don't make the spare parts anymore.
