Huawei has just announced a September 10 event where the company is set to launch the world’s first tri-fold smartphone which, apparently, has a 10-inch display.

    I love how phone manufacturers are like “oh we cant do waterproofing and easy repair at the same time, its too complicated” and then they release one of the most mechanically complicated comercially available devices ive ever seen.

      I realized this completely misses the point, but the problem is actually dust not water. All these foldables are IPX8, meaning they are highly water resistant but not rated for dust and debris.

      I completely agree with your repairability point btw.
