Comment on Samsung reveals first tri-fold phone

Considering everyone I know with a folding phone has had a fault with the folding part of it - I don't think its the best idea from a durability standpoint to add yet another folding part.

If one screen or fold point breaks, you're now left with two unusable (but perfectly functioning) screens. Seems like an expensive gimmick to me.

Then they can replace more devices. Capitalism at work

Mine grew a visible line at the foldy bit that you can see at an angle

  My understanding is that’s normal on all foldable.

From the moment I saw it, I knew what the problem would be, and surprise! That’s the problem.

BTW, I’m a musician, not an engineer. If I saw that obvious issue, what is their fucking problem?

  It’s not a problem, it’s a business opportunity. The more they break, the more they can sell you a 2000 dollars phone.

  The engineer’s problem is that the marketing and sales department started running all of the companies two decades ago. So, they’re constantly overruled.
