#315 years ago flexible displays were probably fantasy. Now there are consumer products (Edit: ah, the laptops are concepts, but Samsung and Motorola have phones!) using them. We do really live in the future...

Flexible and foldable products are so underwhelming. At this point they seem like something being developed just for the sake of demonstrating that it's possible. If the goal is to make attractive products, they're failing spectacularly.

In cramped quarters, a regular 12"ish laptop. When you have extra desk space, it's a desktop with a 17" display.

If they could instead figure out how to get two screens to butt together, that would have a far longer lifespan. I predict all these foldable screens are going to get damaged very easily, but then again it seems planned obolescence is the norm these days...

#10I could definitely use that, you have a small laptop you can easily carry around (assuming that the magnetic keyboard thingy is actually half decent) and then when I'm somewhere with a little more room I can unfold it into a large monitor and use a proper keyboard.
That seems like a good compromise.
