A FOLDABLE iPHONE ? HERE 'S WHAT IT SHOULD HAVE

  

                                     

Why You Should (and Shouldn't) Be Excited About a Folding iPhone

  

A foldable iPhone? That's the latest rumor, with Apple reportedly on track to join Samsung and Huawei in a growing group of device makers planning to make a foldable handset. While Samsung may arrive as early as this year, the rumored foldable iPhone is said to be in the works for 2020. Here at tech news, we've been batting around what we'd want in such a device -- and why we'd want a foldable phone in the first place.

LG, Samsung, and even Lenovo have been trying to make gadgets with foldable screens a thing for a while now. But after one tiny rumor said Apple could be working on one too, suddenly everybody is worked up in a frenzy? Please.

According to CNBC, the only info people are working off of is one quote from BoA analyst Wamsi Mohan, who said, “Our checks also suggest that Apple is working with suppliers on a foldable phone (that potentially could double up as a tablet) for launch in 2020.”

Ignoring that release date for a second, here’s another newsflash: Of course Apple is. Smartphone companies have pretty much already hit the limit on how much they can reduce bezels, with even mid-range phones like the Asus Zenfone 5 offering a 90 percent screen-to-body ratio (and that’s before you mention even wilder devices like the Vivo Apex).
