Note7 owner, 02 Oct 2020Honestly don't remember when was the last time I needed to repair a smartphone. Because you dispose them every two years or every 6 months?

Anonymous, 01 Oct 2020Does anyone even care about this device or Microsoft other than to clown on them?Do you even know who Microsoft is? No matter what brand you like in the computer world it most probably exists because of microsoft. Hack even google would be none-existen if microsoft did not have a platform to support their engine. Not to mention apple.

Note7 owner, 02 Oct 2020Honestly don't remember when was the last time I needed to repair a smartphone. Of course. The person buying your used phone when you move to the new model is the one who will shoulder the repairs.

Tab Active 3 also has IP-rating and is capable of being plugged directly and used without a battery.

No wonder we are stuck in this dumb situation of nearly irrepairable devices. Thanks to people like you.

Too much glue, LCD got damaged when the guy tried to remove the glass away.

As if modern devices were easy to repair. All phones and tablets are glued, those with weather sealing even more, plus all the protective tapes inside. And what would you repair on it, or change, or upgrade? Get a new CPU? Or RAM? More storage? Oh, which tablet can do that?
I hope this device comes to our country as well, I'm planning to buy one. Two screens, two documents to work with. Or presentation+notes simultaneously. Or an e-book with notebook for boring lectures and conferences I visit. Or many other things that can be done with two screens.

It looks elegant, but i don't see a practical reason for most people to buy one of these. With foldables, you get a phone that turns into a mini tablet.
This type of dual-screen device on the other hand just improves multi-tasking on the unfolded state. You can't use it for multimedia consumption (unless you're into bezels running between your media).
