TCL Foldable Smartphone Surpasses Galaxy Fold

Several manufacturers have already presented their versions of phones with folding screens. And the most discussed

until today there was Galaxy Fold from the companySamsung. However, another equally interesting specimen from this series has appeared on the market. I would even say that he is very daring. This is a foldable phone from TCL with a 10-inch screen.

The new foldable phone from TCL seems much moremore interesting than Huawei's Galaxy Fold or Mate X. That's because it has a double hinge that allows you to fold your smartphone in three parts and open it to turn it into a tablet.

The most interesting thing about the TCL phone — This is what,that the loops themselves move in different directions. The hinge allows you to fold like a book, or like a Galaxy Fold, or in the opposite direction, or like an accordion. When folded completely into a three-layer device, the exposed panel becomes the “external” screen of the TCL phone.

As with other foldable phones,The folding process is intuitive. Folding phones — it's the next mainstream in phone design. When unfolded, large screens provide comfortable reading, watching videos, playing games and multitasking. Once folded, you can use them on the go. Despite very real concerns about screen damage, device makers are eager to come up with their own new designs to attract the attention of buyers. TCL's foldable phone prototype is just that.

TCL prototype has no name, price or targetwindows for production. All this will come a little later. It is currently known that the diagonal of the screen when fully expanded reaches 1-inch. There are four cameras on the back, there is also a front camera, a USB-C charger port, no headphone jack.

Microsoft also has its own Surface Pro variantDuo, slated for release in 2020. The Chinese brand Xiaomi is also preparing its version. We note that at the moment there is also no consensus on what the “best” foldable phone design is or what it should be.
