I luv techh

The more iPhone Duo hands-on videos I watch, the more I feel that Samsung was just muddling through before Apple arrived.

Samsung has been making foldables for years, yet it never seems to have figured out what the experience should actually be like. Everything follows an engineering mindset: the screen folds, the features work, job done. But how much thought has gone into the transition between folded and unfolded, the little details of every interaction, and how it all actually feels to use?

Then Apple comes along, and suddenly you realize: a foldable can do this? It can feel like this? Things we had grown used to, and even accepted as inevitable, suddenly turn out to have so much room for improvement.

To me, Apple has both redefined the foldable and expanded our understanding of what one can be. That’s the difference between a great product and a mediocre one.

Now I look at the Galaxy Z Fold 8 in my hand, and it honestly looks like an idiot.

Samsung, please just stick to supplying hardware components. You really aren’t cut out to make software or finished consumer products.

@lordements hmm yeah totally valid! it’s like super laki ng price difference between the US and Philippines when it comes to iPhone pricing. it’s like ₱25k more expensive here

[jaeeee @byteofjae]

@olivegreenpaper @lordements Yeah, iPhone pricing here in the Philippines is ridiculously high 😭 The price difference is actually insane.

Users are gonna win because of competition

[Alvin @sondesix]

Now that Apple has a folding phone, I wonder if that’s gonna make current Samsung Fold users switch.

Honestly, I am just happy that this happened so the competition will be more intense in the near future, especially in the software department.

That means Samsung (and other brands) won’t be too comfortable to play it safe next year.

For now, I think the iPhone Duo will capture most of the hype in the foldable phone market.

UI designers at samsung when they see that progressive blur fold animation

Apple cooked with this animation

[Alvin @sondesix]

This is what everyone meant when they say that Apple will wait until they can optimise the software properly before they can launch a foldable iPhone.

The iPhone Duo software experience already looks more refined than what Samsung has created so far.

[jaeeee @byteofjae]

It looked stunning!

[Andreas Storm @avstorm]

This iPhone Duo animation is insane

[jaeeee @byteofjae]

@montolentino_ i think it looked more immersive, and for the sake of aesthetics, it looked better than having bezels around it
