Google Is Adding Android Support For Foldable Screens (techcrunch.com)
At its Android Developer Summit today, Google detailed plans to bake support for folding phones into the mobile operating system. One of the first Android phones to hit the market with a foldable display looks to be from Samsung with a launch date of "early next year." TechCrunch reports: "You can think of the device as both a phone and a tablet," Android VP of Engineering Dave Burke explained. "Broadly, there are two variants -- two-screen devices and one-screen devices. When folded, it looks like a phone, fitting in your pocket or purse. The defining feature for this form factor is something we call screen continuity."
Among the additions here is the ability to flag the app to respond to the screen as it folds and unfolds -- the effect would likely be similar to the response of applications as handsets switch between portrait and landscape modes.

Ill pass thanks
I've just found a way to make my penis 12 inches long
--- fold it in half
This kind of legacy technology can be supported for ever.
phone displays have become so large, they no longer easily fit in my pants pockets. now, i'll be able to fold the phone and they'll fit again!
On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.
We'll give it a fancy name like "foldable" when really this is just slight update of 15+year old technology. Like the "cloud" is just the next step on the upgrade treadmill. Now everyone will need to go out and spend another million bucks on phones and tablets.
I'm not even opposed to it---I think flip phones were always a better form factor.
Khazar Talmudic Jews believe this of all they call goyim/gentiles (any non-jew): Jews = biggest racists of all (for which they "jew guilt" you for no less! They're hypocrites known as thieves all thru history or were Argentines in the 1940 under Peron, Spanish inquistion, France (1306), Egypt (despoiled/robbed by jews), Arabs (pre & post 1948), England (1330 Edward longshanks), Romans under titus, Russia pogroms and Germany who got rid of them from their nations nazi german's too? No. Driven into DESERTS ages ago! Don't wonder why after all those exilings above.
Should anyone doubt any of this see Jacob Javits' crony Rosenthal spill the beans on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4zMVZ8HnFI/ where he called all Christianity fools for helping Israel and the biggest scam of all time per their beliefs below from their Talmud.

Like the damn AMP results in Chrome, and worst of it the google search bar at the bottom of the launcher in Pie, that you cannot disable!!! wtf!!! In all my android phones for years, first thing I did was to delete this bar, did this from 2.3 to 8.1, and now with 9 google decide for you that the bar will be there eternaly and you cannot remove it.
I hate AMP and this search bar so much that I switched to Microsoft Launcher and Edge, after using Android since almost the beginning, unfathomable...

maybe bendable screens will allow for better glass optics in HMDs?
the demo of the flexible phone looked more like two phones stuck together. The presentation could not hide that the thickness of the foldable object was essentially the thickness of two phones. It would make much more sense to have the operating system be able to connect and combine two phones which are stuck together with magnetic frames. If there is no bezel, then one could even put together a couple of phones to temporarily build a larger reading or writing platform. For desktop monitors, multiple monitor support is standard, building that for phones should not be impossible. Two ``friendly phones" stuck together would just become one.

It's new so must be bad.

I could type a lot faster with a texting-style keyboard on a feature phone.
I have already broken 3 screen protectors on a Galaxy Note 8. I hate rounded over screens because they are too vulnerable. The blue lines going up the screen edges don't look too good either.

Message received, comrade! I'll see you at the location at half past frying pan! beep boop beep/
The whole bezel-less screen thing didn't make much sense, but for a folding screen it is essential.
