Foldable first: Samsung’s Galaxy Fold is full of innovation but comes at a gasp-inducing cost

Samsung’s much awaited foldable phone, straightforwardly named the Galaxy Fold, all but overshadowed the Galaxy S10 lineup at Samsung’s Unpacked event at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium yesterday in San Francisco. Within seconds of the start of presentations, images of the new foldable device flowed over the screen and Justin Denison, Senior Vice President of Product Marketing for the company headed straight on introduce the new phone-tablet.

The Galaxy Fold comes at a fitting time, when one considers it has been exactly ten years since Samsung debuted the Galaxy line of phones, going on to sell a whole galaxy of them and become very much responsible for popularising Android, gradually, weaning users away from Nokia phones.
