What was your first impression of the Samsung Galaxy Fold?
Benjamin Kim (BK) I had just purchased the Galaxy Note 10+ not a month before when the preview of the Fold was announced. I was sceptical as I was not sure how they could manage a foldable screen that can handle multiple folding and unfolding, but decided to see it first hand as conceptually, it piqued my interest.
From the instant I held it though, I was mesmerised by it. The construction of the phone is first class. Everything about it spells premium. But what makes all the difference is the screen. It's big, bright and the colours are beautiful. So right there and then I decided to make the change... again.
Alex Low (AL) The first time I saw it, I loved the big screen that it has. It is the biggest screen in the market, and to be able to carry this in the pocket will change everything for me. When you hit a certain age, the size of the screen matters. I don’t have to squint at my screen.
