The foldable Royole FlexPai has a way to go

The Royole Flexpai is officially the world’s first foldable phone, but its maker has achieved the feat by rushing the device out to market before it’s ready. The threat of Samsung and Huawei stealing the small company’s thunder was simply too much to resist, and that’s how we ended up with the unfinished, unpolished Flexpai at CES 2019.

I love it when technology is in it’s infant stages... I can’t wait to see this stuff in three years.

[vishvajeet]

Huhhh... Apple already did it with their ipad... Cheater....

[pikabuu]

0:01 sounds like a product from AliExpress

[tastyfanpop]

Is this what Apple was trying to do with the iPad pro. Lol

[fightnight]

It would be cooler if it can fold the other way so its well protected whenever you stow or you wanna throw it around

[funny-video-YouTube-channel]

Would be nice *if it folded like a book :-)*

@1:38 No No No No, but for the sake of making a flexible display they made it !! epic dialogue

[samuelhopely]

Alright, I'm always thinking about how tech innovations apply to bike design... and the idea of a display integrated onto a stem is very exciting to me. Imagine a GPS unit that can wrap around any stem you already have, seamlessly. A novelty I'll admit but so are most of modern cycling innovations.

love the little tongue-in-cheek recommendation at the end

[ShaneStroud]

That satirical sales pitch at the end of the video sounds like a bad friend trying to get you to ruin your life lol

[MahelaDimuth]

This technology is old. New Ipad pro can do the same thing but It’s still in beta state.

[ninjanerdstudent]

I remember a guy with an iPhone 3GS in 2009, and we questioned him how he protects his screen. The rest of us had flip phones.

I like how plastic foldable phones will be more expensive than glass phones

[jaospinam]

The most honest review I’ve seen, in terms of dissatisfaction and natural expressions.

[Thatoneguykid]

I'm actually excited for this. Finally get rid of tables. But we'll have to wait a few years when it's perfect and affordable

[Sharmanicus]

That was a unexpectedly sincere and honest review.

[doniscoming]

It's pretty cool but still crossing my fingers for Samsungs concept - although if it's going to be more expensive than having a phone + a tablet - than what's the point? :D

[neilpatel]

Good luck trying to find a case for it

[SveinOlavLarsen]

It's a start. I'm eager to see it evolve in to usable products. Be it a phone or something else.

Something about it is very promising, foldable screens for cornered walls would be a unique interior design choice. I can see this having its place in the near future.
