          Anonymous, 03 Feb 2024Did samsung created oled tech? No Did samsung create imag... moreAny company could claim who invented first, but one thing for sure samsung holds most of patents on many smartphone parts.

          Samsung holds so many patents, it become difficult for other manufacturer to create foldable phone without paying patent fees to samsung or buy parts from Samsung.

          For example: Samsung has the patents of foldable waterdrop hinge and foldable display 4-5 years before launch of first Z Fold phone.

            given how apple users are ,i don't think apple will be able to sell a device with plastic screen (UTG is still as fragile as plastic)
            so either this is gonna get delayed or cancelled as whole

              NeonHD, 03 Feb 2024They said they wouldn't ever make a foldable, well loo... morethey are AI generated lol, guess gsm couldnt find any renders of apple foldables

                They said they wouldn't ever make a foldable, well look at them now.

                Also these article images look AI generated lol

                  Anonymous, 03 Feb 2024If a company like Samsung was not innovative, then no compa... moreSamsung has become the Apple of Android and they are just as un-innovative as Apple. They had their glory times when they actually did some innovative stuff. But those times are kinda over. They play it safe, unlike other companies, because their main goal is to sell as many phones as possible and they have to keep their phones consumer-friendly, unlike other companies who know damn well they won't sell too many of their phones, even if they are innovative and the first at something. Take Oppo or Xiaomi or Tecno for example

                    this just downgrading the iPad Mini's minimalist and durability, yet charging at higher price not for more productivity?

                      They create one or two unique ideas and others copy it. That's business

                        Did samsung created ram memory? No
                        Did samsung created storage chips? No

                        Samsung mobile has over the years just absorbed ideas from other and advertise as new. And never makes better.
                        Even those AI editing from pixel, also with same flaws ( artifacts and halos when you move subject around the frame)

                          Someone is trying hard to crack the
                          Innovation has become borrowing and integrating in the last 5 years.

                            Apple will claim they Created the Market.
                            It will be called the iInfinite and say everything foldable before that didn't exist 🤣

                              So now, iPad Mini $449 (64gb) - $599 (256gb)
                              is getting a replacement Fold Mini,

                              so with Fold will be getting overpriced for no extra function?

                              $649 (256gb) - $ 749 (512gb)?

                                the "innovation" of Apple Folding Phone 😱😱😱

                                        First Apple is waste company.
                                        By 2026-27 foldable phones are out dated.
                                        Apple sell it for car price.
