I feel like 2019 foldable phones could be the future.

Royal Royal Royal with cheese Royal with cheese.

Well, look, it could become a tablet or a phone.

Kind of look at it flashing and its jagged e.

I mean, the OS is not really set up very well.

I know Andrey is supposedly working on it, but in its current form, can you imagine carrying that thing around like it's a slab in your public?

I mean, yeah, I guess you could buy it, but 2019 seems like that Streit's That's fair.

I will say In general, I'm a fan of ambitious products and designs where they're going after something that seems unattainable, like this idea of this folding display.

So it's like everyone's look, look what they're trying tow, you know, get people's attention.

They're tryingto reignite the smartphone hype.

And I appreciate the reach, the ambition and the fact that Samsung's working on it.

Five or the note Siris that had a five inch screen, like just going to a bigger screen.

I don't know if anyone in the comments section is gonna be on your side right now.

I do appreciate the ambitious nature of it.

The attempt, the approach, the the idea that the technology exists to be able to do it.

I like pushing the boundaries, all that stuff, good stuff.

But if this was a physical product Goodbye right now, or recommend right now.

Imagine you pull that out right now is a phone.

It would be kind of cool because no one else would have it.

We did a video way back in the day on that one.

Was a Z T device on the axe on em from C T E.

And it was, you know, there was a high novelty factor playing with it games and so on.

And but the value proposition wasn't enough to justify the strange form factor.

You got a fatter phone when it was in phone mode.

You got this sandwich effect this extra hinge.

There was all this extra hardware for this potential moment when you flip it open.

Now, if you're a serious gadget head, you're motivated by the weirdness of it.

But as faras folding screens, being the savior for stagnant smartphone sales, I just don't know if people are gonna be clamoring for this type of an upgrade, especially when you consider there's been this push industrywide toe like shrink everything like slim it down, eliminate Bez A.

Let's see if we could get the other specs on that device, though.

Eight Gigs of Ram Oh, so it's like a powerhouse in almost eight inch display when it's unfolded.

14 40 p display am a lead, of course, because it can fold mean that's not terrible.

I'm just I've been looking at this for a while, and I saw the videos come out of CS, and there's just something that feels off about it and being a technology fan and being that inspector gadget kid that I referenced from earlier, there is a sense of excitement just because of the novelty factor of like, Whoa, you're folding the screen.

You could probably sell a few units on the wow factor.

I want to put it in a museum like it seems like something you should have.

But when it comes to day today, I don't know that it's solving a problem.

How big of a screen is on this, like six and 1/2 already.

And it's crazy, thin, way lighter, a totally manageable form factor.

If this thing goes through and becomes a legit advancement in the smartphone, space is going to have to be crazy thin to the point where when it's folded up, it's similar to this now.

These guys out there saying all smartphones have to be crazy thin, but I think they do need to be thinner than what Royal or Royal is showing off with this flex pie situation at CS.

For now, I'm going to say, any ready it's garbage.

 I'm not telling anybody to order that thing, dude, I'm just not doing it.
