I like it but things like how do you put a case on this new phone and a screen protector come to mind? Don't like that the fragile screen is exposed all the time. I do like the new ways of tech now days 🙂 I had the same concerns as well. Hopefully they may develop some kind of flexible case that can contract and expand when needed.

This is all very fascinating and I'm sure the boffins will come up with something in the future, I just think it'll take a few broken phones to figure out how and when.
skyfire Posted January 13, 2021 Posted January 13, 2021 About broken phones, I think the flap and rollable must be having a lot of expenses on the repairs. I guess it is okay for the premium category not the casual ones.Â

It's mostly down to the third parties that designs in cases and they really have to do allot of designing and working out. I think there will be something out there but won't be that easy to start with.  Â
Shole Posted January 13, 2021 Posted January 13, 2021 Oppo and Xiaomi are companies worth buying from. They just go crazy on their devices! I am a xiaomi fan boy but I might go to oppo pretty soon.
skyfire Posted January 14, 2021 Posted January 14, 2021 I used to like xiaomi then they stopped making the charger pack in the box.. now they sell it separately like apple. and also they are moving the headphone jack as well. good bye xiaomi.Â
killamch89 Posted January 17, 2021 Author Posted January 17, 2021 I'm not a fanboy of any mobile company but the note 20 Ultra will probably be my last Samsung device. They keep stripping away features and charging around the same price every year since the Note 9.
skyfire Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 I would blame apple for that. they have kind of made people think of removing features makes it minimalism and cool phone. I just don't agree with that so far.Â

I also blame the idiots that continue to just blindly buy Apple products because they're "loyal".
killamch89 Posted January 22, 2021 Author Posted January 22, 2021 TCL also came up with an Elder Scroll-like Rollable phone. No seriously, that second one is the Elder Scroll, you even see Nirn there XD Â

skyfire Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 Yeah pretty much. I started hating xiaomi when they got rid of the charger. I heard they plan on doing the same to the audio too.Â
killamch89 Posted February 28, 2021 Author Posted February 28, 2021 Well it's pretty much confirmed that LG is leaving the smartphone industry and it's too bad. I did like their LG Velvet and LG G8 but now it's too late. Â
killamch89 Posted February 28, 2021 Author Posted February 28, 2021 In other news, isn't it incredibly ironic that Huawei slammed the Galaxy Z fold design when it was first introduced only to make a larger knock-off version of the phone. In addition to that, it has a huge crease in the middle. Â
