Apple finally innovates something big Ming-Chi Kuo reports
*premium-priced folding iPhones*
"Kuo said Apple's folding phone could have a display
made by Samsung Display, which is planning to produce
as many as eight million foldable panels for the device
next year. However, other components haven't been finalized,
including the device's hinge, Kuo wrote. He expects it to
have premium pricing."

If Apple ever produces a folding phone...
...it will actually work.

It's consistent that Apple trolls have so much faith in Apple's output.
Remember, Apple religious zealots said the same thing about the 5G modem.
It's five generations behind.... but ... in some ways... it does work.
A folding phone would be twice as thick and be a huge lump in your pants pocket.

I think there is a place for a tricycle, a bicycle, a motorcycle, a car and
a truck, where the folding phone is to truck versus a regular phone to car.
It may have a place, if it works. But it's a truck of a phone.
The main takeaway for me is it's further proof Apple can't innovate.
But we'll have to wait to see what it shows on how well Apple can copy.
