If you are not living under a rock, then you must be aware that Apple has finally unveiled its first foldable, the iPhone Duo. There is surely a lot to praise about it, like its wide screen, almost invisible crease, super-fast Apple A20 Pro processor, and much more. However, one particular thing that certainly caught the most attention was the opening and closing animation of the iPhone Duo. I, personally, liked the little trick that Apple is offering on its foldable, and I was hoping most...

" The negativity around the animation effect stems from the realization that it is a software-driven capability related to the device's hinge-angle sensor, rather than a truly innovative hardware feature like the privacy display on the Galaxy S26 Ultra." I agree. While the animation is undeniably nice-looking, it is ultimately a software-driven flourish rather than a breakthrough in hardware innovation. Many users replicated the effect on Android devices shortly after the announcement. True innovation, in my view, lies in functional, high-value features—like Samsung’s Privacy or Anti-Glare displays, or Google’s Stolen Device protection—that provide genuine utility and set a new industry standard. Quality-of-life features are always welcome and should be copied.
It's such a gimmick; all the Android devices copied it right away, lol.
It’s funny that no one thought of this until Apple showed off the Duo. Samsung and other brands have had eight generations of foldables, yet none of them implemented it. Now that Apple has, suddenly everyone is trying to recreate it on their Galaxy Folds.
No one thought of it because it's not worth thinking of. It's a stupid little animation that Android has shown can be done very easily and adds nothing.
