I certainly see the value in a more hybrid device - this just feels like a bit of a technical "pissing contest" if you will rather than a consumer focussed device.

Again, I'd be happy to be proven wrong - and I do appreciate the engineering involved in making a consumer grade foldable screen.

Even if that's the case I think that's fine. It should help push innovation at Samsung and its competitors. Sure, they should be more consumer focused _in general_ but I think moon-shots like this have their place.

I'm not interested in a fold-able phone. But I'd love to see them get really good.
