#2I was a bit skeptical on this form factor, but after watching a few reviews I think I'm convinced. The heart says yes, bank balance says definitely no.
I think with Apple's software optimization, it'll be a really solid device. The only thing I'd be missing are the Pro level cameras.

#3As usual, people will buy the iPhone cause it's the iPhone. I don't think Samsung will be stealing any customers as such.

It is a form factor that looks silly at first but is really nice once you have it. But yes, the price for access to this is just too high for a lot of people.

#6Samsung has done it again. They've been making foldable phones in a certain screen ratio and somehow this year they decided to change it to match the unreleased iPhone fold.

#7Once the novelty wears off, folding and unfolding gets kind of annoying.

The Samsung Galaxy S (the top range) sells between 25 to 35 million units per year.
Sure, it's not iPhones number, which are around 8 to 9 times higher but Samsung has to compete in a huge Android ecosystem, whereas the iOS one has only one offering series per year.
The Galaxy S has always been a very solid product line.

Yeah, initially my skepticism was around the fact that the front screen wouldn't be useful for day-to-day 'normal' smartphone things (messaging, scrolling X etc), and the inner screen would be too small for any of the 'tablet' benefits.
But the reviews seem to suggest the front screen is actually very usable, and you get back some of the old smartphone one hand reachability, and the inner screen looks very versatile for media and side by side apps.

#10I saw a post on X.com that shows the Samsung's internal screen has the same size and aspect ratio of the iPad mini gens 1~5. Going to be such a slam dunk when Apple releases theirs.
