This is going to be like shaving razors, isn’t it? How soon before quad-fold phones?

I’m waiting for one that unrolls like a bamboo placemat.

A phone you can crumple up like a receipt before you put it in your pocket

crumples the phone

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 11 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Well phones already vibrate so they're ahead of the curve in that regard.

I'm waiting for the twelvefold myself.

I'm waiting for the twelvefold myself The Samsung Origami

Dick stuck in Samsung and I have to pee.

When you said shaving razors, I thought you were going to go with disposable, but you went with multi blades. Good head fake.
