Samsung Reveals a Foldable Phone – Samsung Galaxy F


Last Wednesday (Nov 7) Samsung revealed a prototype of the Foldable phone.

It was “camouflaged” in a bulky case.  We expect the phone to be slimmer.


There were two screens (one on the outside and a large one on the inside) and opened like a book (as opposed to other designs where there is one screen on the outside).
The ‘book style’ will protect the large screen.
The screen was beautiful and didn’t appear to have a crease (unlike other prototypes shown by smaller companies).
Front 4.58” display 1960×840; middle 7.3” 2152×1536
The phone also could tell which screen you were looking at and automatically rotated, adjusted the apps you were working on.
Samsung will call the phone the Galaxy F (for foldable).
It will release in March of 2019 for about $1,770.
Most likely to be fully announced at CES 2019.
LG plans to release a foldable phone at CES 2019.

Comic Book Genius Stan Lee, Spider-Man Creator, Dies at 95

Stan Lee, the creative dynamo who revolutionized the comic book and helped make billions for Hollywood by introducing human frailties in Marvel superheroes such as Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and the Incredible Hulk, died Monday. He was 95.
As the top writer at Marvel Comics and later as its publisher, Lee was widely considered the architect of the contemporary comic book. He revived the industry in the 1960s by offering the costumes and action craved by younger readers while insisting on sophisticated plots, college-level dialogue, satire, science fiction, even philosophy.
Millions responded to the unlikely mix of realistic fantasy, and many of his characters, including Spider-Man, the Hulk and X-Men went on to become stars of blockbuster films. He won the National Medal of Arts in 2008.
Some say he’s the writer of modern mythology.
