iPhone Duo was the perfect foldable yesterday

Heresy oh my goodness heresy!!!! If this artical doesn't cause Apple loyalists heads to explode, then they didn't read it.

"People can't stop talking about it, and Samsung is losing its mind over it."

Look at the social media reactions from launch day—the panic on X is palpable. It is clear that the competition realizes the foldable battle is effectively over, just as @iceuniverse suggested. It is truly incredible how Apple managed to shift the entire market dynamic with the release of a single foldable device.

How has the phone shifted the market?

It’s the hottest topic right now. Every reviewer and Apple user is talking about it, and with Apple dominating the news cycle, it’s clear that people are genuinely loving this device in every market.

Wait reviewers are doing their jobs and fanboys are being fan boys so the foldable wars are over?

"But is it really all that special?"

This is real question, and we all know the answer.

Panic for what?? The device is crap doesn't even have a zoom where other foldables have. Over priced, ugly and just plain crap

I want PA to show an official statement from Samsing showing they are losing their minds over it. You just believe anything negative about Samsung even if it isn't even true.

Oh and you claim the multitasking was better vs the Folds. Please explain how you can only have 2 apps on the screen anf not being able to resize them is better multitasking. EXPLAIN!!!

Apple hasn't done anything but get attention. It's all just attention because it is new.

You really are delusional just like PA.

It's hot because it is new. As with every OEM when they have a new product, it gets lots of attention for about a week or two, then crickets.

The reason it's no big deal, you cant even order it yet.

Question, who created this market? Wasn't it Samsung? Yes! How? Because they chose 10 years ago to think outside the box. That means everyone else including Apple is now copying them. Samsung started this trend.

Remember how I said, when people copy Apple you get your panties all in a bunch, bit no mention about how Apple is copying again though right?

Apple doesn't dominate the new cycle. They released a product 8byears later that everyone else has and it just gets attention. When Samudng 1st made a folding phone, it got a lot of attention both positive and negative just like this one is doing.

When Apple released their overpriced goggles it got a lot of attention. Then it failed miserably anf you don't hear about it much now do you?

I agree with you, like all new gadgets itnis a hot topic. But look even on X they are talking aboutnits shortcomings.

Shortcomings - it absolutely heavy. Even Samsung 1st fold, or i dont think any of them weighted this much. It can only have an app on each side for now, while Samsung has had aliptscreen since the 1st Note and their goldables still can have at least 2 apps on each screen, plus floating windows. But YOU claimed it had better muktitasking. How can it with just one app on each panel, because just like the iPhone you can still only have 2 apps on the screen at anyone time. That isn't true mutitasking. Even on the iPad. Multitasking which is better, isn't even close to what Android and Windows and even OS C can do.

Thisnpo9ny alone which you highlighted yesterday proves you just a fabric with no substance.

Now I did some watching yesterday and I watch 4 videos of people giving a small impression of the device. All 4 of them lead off with one common thing, all of them spoke about the animation when you open and close. Is this really all you all can brag about for a debice that costs $2000 is how an app page fades over to the inside?

So are yoi gonna go look and ahhh everything you see it? Also all of them spoke about the weight. But then, they said after awhile the animation got annoying and are not happy you cant turn it off.

Next, the mutitasking. 1:1 app capability. This isn't 100% Apple fault. Th3 reason IOS is so lame here is because of the version of UNIX that Steve Job chose to make the NextStep OS on and us the engine for Mac OS X. That version of UNIX doesn't render graphics very well and it's multitasking is limited as it cant properly manage to many objects onscreen.

This is why Microsoft felt they coild do better and didn't use UNIX.

Right now it is hype because wow it is new. Apple after 8 years finally gets a fold and it's the talk of the town.

It really looks like Apple literallly took iPad OS and made it very dumb to squeeze it into this device.

This device shows Tim Cook is not a hardware guy like the one guy they got rid of

Once October comes and people can order th3 device you will get that last little media frenzy and then you won't hear much about it.
