    Now you can admit the real reason.
    Instead of blaming other.

      Considering it is technically three panels, this actually looks somewhat thin. I still couldn't see myself using this a regular phone. It's a portable tablet.

And yeah, I hope the aspect ratio gets better. Tri-folds could give us a 9" tab but if it's a 16:10 or 16:9 one I'd happily buy one in the second gen. Usually second or third gen products are basically the ones to get for example the Fold 1 was a mess and the Z Fold2 was a huge upgrade.

If you think about it and unfold the extra fold, the screen space doubles, so the screen size will be much bigger. But the screen size would also have much different screen ratio, unless they make it thinner.

              That is an option. But I also think that due to size of the components, it will be a quite beefy device. Not saying that is a bad thing. I look forward to it, actually.

              My only worry is that the built quality isn't there yet. At least when you think about longer lasting experience of multi folds.

                      Double-triple-quadruple, who cares. If my phone folds into something, it'll be one of a thousand cranes!

                        3000$ starting price and 1000$ per display

                            You can be sure, once HarmonyNext is ready, it will dominate west asia & africa easily.

                              Ignore this and wait for quadruple folding phones.

                                I understand fold in some extent but triple fold makes no sense at all to me.

                                    Samsung needs to stop working on something like this.
                                    Waste of R&D.
