Cell phones - the latest and greatest!

Have you seen the latest from Samsung?  It folds!  It's a tablet and a phone all in one.  I saw it on the news and phoned Rogers who haven't got a launch date yet.  I've seen phones from the "brick" in the '90s to the flip phone and then the smart phone we've all grown to love.  This has changed the market and I would expect Apple to announce the same technology for all my Apple friends.



Samsung Galaxy Fold specs and interface

The Samsung Galaxy Fold packs 12GB of RAM and a high-end 7nm processor, making it one of the most powerful phones on the market.

It also comes with 512GB of internal storage and support for UFS 3.0 (Universal Flash Storage), allowing the handset to read data even faster. There is no expandable storage option, though.

The Galaxy Fold runs Android 9 Pie, the latest software from Google, but Samsung has developed a unique interface over the top to work especially with the screens.

The large folding screen supports three app multi-tasking, allowing you to have three apps open on the display at the same time.

App Continuity allows you to continue your app experience as you fold between the two displays.

Apps such as WhatsApp and Microsoft Office have been specially adapted to work with the Galaxy Fold's 7.3-inch display.

It has a total of six cameras, with three on the rear (16MP + 12MP + 12MP), a 10MP selfie snapper on the front and two (10MP + 8MP) above the 7.3-inch display inside the fold.
