That makes sense I used to pluck "Dragonflies" and wasps off the still hot grill of my truck when I was little.

"Folding phones come in all shapes and sizes, and I'm sorry for all the insect facts...." I'm litteraly reading this while you're going off on a tangent! 😂 😂 😂 🦋

Not only outer folding but it's time to stop ALL folding phones. It's a dead end. It's pointless, flimsy, unreliable and childish.
Rollable is the future. It makes far, far more sense. Plus, rollable screens will not suffer from those problems that plague folding screens.

That is one of the stupidest things I've ever read. Foldables have fewer moving parts, no motor, and more room for a battery than a rollable. Rollables when deployed are literally filled with air. Not like a little bit; most of it is air. If you want to talk flimsy, half of your internal volume being made of *literally* nothing is kind of a problem. We have seen one rollable actually functional. It has a crease. You know what doesn't? Mate X2. A foldable.

Cicada wings explanation is when Vsauce and MKBHD collaborated. 😁

If this had been developed a decade ago, what we see daily at home may have changed.

Once it can be folded into two, they don't need to stick to a certain shape.

ah yes the 3ds phone

I'm stoked about the outside folding form factor. While it isn't perfect, I like the flexibility and utility it brings. The Huawei X series is the best example of this imo.
Daniel Moon
The tame italian apically disapprove because dry delightfully fool off a chief granddaughter. petite, splendid turnover

honestly, this is the most efficient way of doing a folding phone. Samsung's approach is kinda wasteful with 3 screens when at a time you need at most 2. this formfactor is much efficient as they need much less hardware. but i think the most efficient might be a rollable phone.

I work in China and I can tell you directly that this phone has terrible software lag there is a lot of lag, Also the screen and the android version they use makes me feel like I'm using a Samsung Galaxy 8, Seems they cut a lot of costs in the screen pixel graphics. You'll have to try it yourself and feel it out but trust me there's a lot of lag. I've been using the Samsung fold1 and it's the greatest phone I've used for a year haven't had any problems that been mentioned all over YouTube. I like using the Samsung Fold1 soooooo much, when folded you can use 1 hand and your thumb to type, my hand remembered the old Nokia phones that allowed use to type with 1 hand, Samsung fold2 still can but too wide, again 1 year with my Samsung Fold1 absolutely no problems or screen damage 😀
DUCK_
my pitch ... make screen fexible ONLY in areas where its being bent ... the rest can be hard as regular screen ...
punkfruit
i like the lg wing,..

You should take their technology seriously. The flex oled really has a durability problem. Royole might be the answer. Even in China, every tech cynical is laughing at them. But time will prove.
free grammer
they have different flex display tech other than korean oled. You should really take it more seriously.

Outer Folding might not be the best way. Yet, for companies like Huawei and Royaole, Outer Folding is the only way since their technology limits them to Outer Folding. They just can't do inside folding phone due to Limited Technologies.
Ulises Tapia
That hinge would probably fit perfectly with the z fold if it didn't make any creaking sounds
Predz
3:23 wasted opportunity u couldve said "also 2 flex pais in one room, that pretty rare, weird flex PAI but ok"
Alpha Male
Genuine question, is it possible that the screen for folding phones to be made out of glass? And the part where you fold it is made from plastic? Like partially glass and plastic. If it is possible then it would have much better protection for the screen
Mark Gonzalez
2 flex pies in the room. weird flex but okay 3:27

So know ones going to talk about his floating shoe. 1:36 its blurred

Alternate formfactors are simply devices looking for an audience. I asked my rep at the carrier store who sells the Galaxy Fold 2 and the Razr fold how many they sell of them...None.
c2g1980
I actually like Huawei's interpretation, the best. I like that the outer display is more of a practical form factor, but I don't like that it's always exposed. The Z Fold 3 will be my next, primary device, tho. I just wish it had more of an 18:9 ratio, when closed.
Robert Harvilla
I liked the nanopillar skin twist, but I was so hoping for a joke about how the hinge is as loud and annoying as a cicada. Loudest most annoying animals ever. LOL

well well well ... marques is starting a biology tech channel now

If it falls, does it break?

So we’re not going to talk about the spinning slipper in the background. 🤷🏾

Haha cool
Priyanshu Raj
Dont know why this phone looks outdated, like a phone from 2015 or before
Lloyd Turner
Is this mkbhd or hoonigan autofocus/build biology?

In my opinion, Samsung's galaxy z fold and z flip are the best designs for foldables.
Rakesh Pandey
Apple : compares their phones to last year's phones
Samsung : compares their phones to other phones
Royole : compares their phone to a *cicada*
Ahmed Dewan
The cyberpunk joke 😂😂
Ronnie Jones
I'm waiting on a rollable phone. There is great potential
24Elliottwaves
Yeah, I will not recommend that one because it looks like two phones put together. LOL.
tabiri ibrahim
I like your videos.
Keep it up

IT’S TIME TO GOOOOO

I want an iPhone 13 with the Razor's tucked screen!

When that I carly episode is coming true where the kid brought a huge phone and got make fun of now look at where we are.
International Media
Great video. The K dramas have been pumping the Samsung foldable for 2 year now. They look cool on scene but over time I see the bend wearing down. We'll see
EverY Shop
Technolgy🤔 good luck cheers
Владимир Петров
Hey, I think that we have to respect their try to make a better phone. Don't buy the phone, if the cracking sound is problem for you, but don't say of somebody how to spend his time and money.
B s
I like the concept of this phone. Getting double screen size and being able to fold and put it in my pocket.
B s
I wonder why makers didn't consider the point of screen getting scratched outside .

The cicada's nanopillar structure on their wings also happen on copper, that's why it's antibacterial.
Azraq
ok mkphd
Roger Skagerström
I don't get it - why don't they just make an inner screen folding phone with two regular screens that go edge to edge when opened up? I think a sharp cornered kind of edge display - perhaps with some prism peice covering the gap, would be better to use and be a lot less fragile than a soft film.
Ahren Scholz
There is no point in having the big screen on the outside , you can only use one side at a time
Tom Corin
I thing the galaxy fold 2 style has the most promise as a different form factor cause its is much more practical the the other options
Rhyex
ok?
Edith Shao
I think they meant 薄如蝉翼 for the wings lol

Guys, can we talk about the spinning sandal in the background? 1:35 to 1:48 in two shots

Starting to think of it which phone does he use🤔

naaaahhhhhhh that insect footage. i'm out.
youtube videos need insectophobia warnings like the one with Epilepsy Seizures

Learning Tech and learning about science at the same time it's something I'm down to see more of

The galaxy Fold style is my cup of tea. Just the idea of having basically a foldable tablet it awesome. For some it would replace two devices.
Ricardo Angel Santiago
Weird flex
Tang Kian Siong
Maybe for some games u can grip it completely and the back side will kind of act like a feedback touch
Peter Gregory Cruzata
Can I ask?
What happens to the unit they send if your not agreeing to their ideas?? 😊😇🥰

At the moment form factor is all about being first and selling stuff - but ultimately it will be about application. That's when it will pay off.

can you open a channel on explaining different topics, because you are really good at it. love your work .
Dave Sargent
hinge pieces may be magnetic, pushing smaller bits down folded and when unfolded, magnet may move smaller bits to click back into place. wild thought

Tech and biology my two favourite things..
Thanks MKBHD

Can you give me a phone for my study
I don't have any phone.

Is foldable phone a good product? No, even it is perfectly functional. Foldable phone is like 3D TV. Interesting technology but worse product.
BobaXCookie
Who else never knew phones like this existed?

Outside fold is best
Peter Knutsen
I’m into the Apple approach, which is to wait until the technology is mature and THEN launch it.
zaidy77
But...but...but...what if apple or samsung did it?

I like the outie folds because they don't need extra screens and cameras

Hey you are the beeeeeest man
I love you.
I hope 🤞 I could visit you a day

Folding on the outside does prevent the issue of debris getting inside the fold and messing up the screen, we just need more durable folding screens. In that sense, this phone is ahead of it's time. I would like to see them keep working on it though, but maybe only as a concept.
Frankie Polyak
That scroll aspect is pretty cool in my opinion
Muaaz
Samsung foldable are the future
Jay Dee
Nah. You have to review the Mate X. The flex Pi is bottom barrel stuff. This is a goofy take in my opinion.
babypj
The folding trend is really stupid. It makes almost no sense for a phone.
Phone should be easily carried around: the double thickness makes it worse than almost every available alternative.
You want to watch a bigger screen? Get a tablet. Most of the time you don’t need the big screen unless you live your life at home.
Jay Dee
Not everything is about you.
