killamch89 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Honestly, in a way, foldables would actually be the end product of merging a smartphone and a tablet - it's just that it'd fold with ease and be far more durable than the correct offerings not to mention way cheaper. Which two consumer products would you merge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I have always been dubious about foldable smartphones if I am honest especially with how they fold now with the screen. I can't say I have heard many issues with these foldable smart phones but I guess I worry about the possibility of it ruining the screen at some point. If foldable smartphones and tablets were possible though that would be a cool thing to have, would allow you to take your tablet with you places without needing a huge space to keep it. In terms of what two consumer products I would like to see merged I'm not sure. There are things I can think of such as maybe a PC and a smartphone so that you could do all the things on your PC that you can do on a smart phone but also use it as a PC as normal as well but in a sense we can already do that as we have apps to be able to do that on our PC's. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean smartphones are really powerful nowadays so for casual tasks you'd do on your PC, you can actually use your smartphone to do them. That being said, it'll take a good 20 years from now before we see smartphones come anywhere near the computing power of PCs of this age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
