Even this (with android) is better value for money than the "fold" at $2000.

            SAMSUNG use more than five years time to develop this phone, which I believe is a replica of previous NOKIA 9300 communicator.

                You can't even place two thumbs on it let alone type an sms or anything.

                You end up having to unfold the "phone" for everything except pick calls - basically 98% of your activities will need you unfolding.

                The hinge will wear in no time.

                Its basically a small tablet with a notifier on the back ... for $2000??

                                The folded form gives a below average and non-usable (by todays standard) "phone" - which due to its very narrow screen ratio makes it impossible to thumb type an SMS, WhatsApp message, email or anything on Social media.

                                The unfolded form gives a 7.2" "tablet" with which screen ratio makes it a small tablet that has barely enough screen real estate to view a webpage in deaktop mode.

                                To do anything like send an sms, reply an sms, send an email, reply an email, send or reply a WhatsApp, Telegram Message, or even do any social media viewing, commentary or even view a webpage, you MUST unfold thia device and that would mean 95% of the time - that will increase the wear and tear on the hinge mechanism and screen area in the folded part and end up an expensive ownership cost.
                                This is what makes the Huawei Mate X better as when folded, you can do 95% of what is required on a phone and a smartphone with it folded and would ONLY need to unfold rarely (just like using an android tablet). Hence the prolonged life of the device and hinge mechanism and overall efficiency.

                                The Galaxy fold should be avoided

I dont see any merit in making foldable that size when folded. Why we need foldables in the first place is because we want a compact device opened up to a big device. The huawei design is pretty and all and that the only credit I give. Functionality wise Samsung have the upper hand. We want a foldable phone. Keyword; phone. Phone that can be folded smaller that its original phablet size.

                                        Luxor, 04 Mar 2019Well said. When it comes to Samsung their device actually answered the question, "Why we need ... more... because the folded screen ratio makes it the size of a Note 9 ( only even with more screen real estate and better features) and when unfolded, it gives a tablet mode 8" screen size (different screen ratio) with awesome speakers and features

                                        This gives you a flagship phone folded and a tablet unfolded. Unlike the 9210 revamp offered by fold with a useless folded screen
