1. [+3713, -83] Samsung is amazing technology-wise...

 

2. [+1065, -71] Their technology is amazing and I'm proud of it.

 

3. [+1017, -63] This is really amazing... I'm proud that the company is our country's.

 

4. [+765, -114] Rather than the overpriced iPhones and long-lasting iPads, a product that combines those two will earn more in the future. I've never been greedy for a phone but I want one now.

 

5. [+542, -32] I really like how it fits in one hand when it's folded. It becomes a tablet if you open it. So nice...

1. [+1261, -179] Oh~ I want to buy one. I really want one!

 

2. [+1044, -121] Galaxy S10 is much cheaper than Apple with better functions. They even have a foldable one. Who can surpass Samsung anymore?

 

3. [+1005, -98] Samsung is insane ã…‹ã…‹ Galaxy S10 has 12GB of ram, 1TB storage, Touch ID on the screen, 5 cameras on front & back, wireless battery-sharing, 3400~4500 battery capacity, and priced between $800~$1000. They're going hard this time.

 

4. [+477, -10] Don't get the technology stolen by China~

 

5. [+158, -12] People criticize the foldable priced at $2220 but isn't the price tag already done by iPhone? This is new technology, so I don't think the price debate is accurate. People already bought iPhones with that price ã…‹ã…‹ People keep comparing it to tablets but tablets were called portable PCs in the first place and a lot of people stop using tablets because they're not that portable. In that aspect, I think foldable phones are worth a lot. The thickness is much thinner than expected and the overall product looks nice.

1. [+718, -94] People use iPhone for courage. People use Galaxy for innovation. If you put courage over technology, use iPhone~ I'd rather pay the same price and use Galaxy for better technology~

 

2. [+697, -29] This is a huge innovation... I wonder what Apple will present next time.

 

3. [+679, -22] Samsung... This is quite competitive.

 

4. [+50, -7] Huawei will reveal their foldable in a few days. They must be really scared ã…‹ã…‹

 

5. [+39, -7] Apple fanboys: "Why would you fold the screen?!!"

That seems inconvenient for everyday use. Imagine trying to call people while holding that huge ass screen

[Mingyu's Blue Hair]

Woow it is amazing. I would love to buy 1 if I would have enough money.

[ANBU]

Omaagahahhh

[Daddy Marx]

It's so bad I can't

[HoMaLiAk]

I really hope that the iPhone hype could die soon.

Wouldn't you only unfold it when you need the big screen, like looking at the map or watching a show? You'd keep it folded if you're calling someone.

 

This isn't for me.

oh i get it

 

honestly i can just see the numerous issues this is gonna have when it first releases lmfao

[Augusto]

Flip phones are back lol.

[Mugifrogie]

I can buy one flagship phone and a nice tablet. I mean, it's nice to have something like foldable phone but if one day it broke, I'll lose both my tablet and phone in the same time.

5. [+39, -7] Apple fanboys: "Why would you fold the screen?!!"

 

OMG THIS IS MY FRIEND. He's such an apple fanboy, he so deluded. 

 

Every time I try to tell him that Galaxys have better tech he says, but why would you need that.

 

Me: Airpods are useless and are just over priced blue-tooth earphones with an ugly design. Galaxy pods are prettier and have storage on them. You don't even need to take your phone with you running, you can just go without your phone, so much more comfortable

 

His dumbass: but why would you need storage on an earphone, I don't need it, I can just sync my phone and take it everywhere inconveniently 

 

Me: Removing the headphone jack is such a dumb idea, it literally eliminates user options. Why can you leave the option of which earphone to use to the consumer?

 

Him: Bluetooth is the future. Only broke people use wired earphones.

 

Me: But what if you're on a long flight and can't charge your airpods, what will you do?

 

Him: Who even goes on long flights anyway? lol

 

[Buttered Sone]

I prefer Samsung by far but this still looks shit lol

NOTHING Samsung does is prettier lmaoooo what sorta planet are you on

[Baekhyunah]

iPhones are better 

[seokii]

fuckin hate samsung phones. fuckin hate apple phones. was thrilled with my huawei until I found out that huawei withdrew from the American market entirely after accusations that they were enabling the Chinese government to spy on Americans. what the fuck.

 

We are living in this wonderful age of handheld technology but all the largest smartphone manufacturers are shit, through and through.

 

ppl who rage on about "Android vs iphone" are sheep either way to support tech conglomerates that keep producing shitty products. god, you people will spend your money on anything

 

I don't give a FUCK about a folding screen, keep that shit, the novelty will wear off in seconds like it did with the wraparound screen

I just want a user friendly phone that isn't loaded with samsung's SHITTY shovelware and that doesn't spy on me and that doesn't cost an absurd amount of money because it's considered a fashion piece more than a smartphone (looking at you, Apple)

 

god I can't wait for a reasonble competitor to enter the market and sweep me off my feet with a well designed well prices smartphone. Huawei you could have been that. you were so close! you had me fooled!

[Grape Soda]

iPhones are better

 

Note 9 says hi

[EXOSUS]

It has been ages since I bought Samsung

Have they fix the battery issue because my old phone's one was disappointing

[Soko]

To be able to fold and unfold a screen is amazing tbh

[Nsfw]

NOTHING Samsung does is prettier lmaoooo what sorta planet are you on

tea they are so faulty... every samsung device i'd ever had to deal with is just an entire mess of a product

[Akidoki]

I am really excited for the phone. Is it super pretty? No. But given the tech is new, it would take time to make the phone sleeker while still being able to do everything. Therefore the bulkiness is a given and tbh even necessary. This is a great start for the future. And I am sure samsung will continue to bring us great tech.

 

However will i upgrade from the s9 plus for this? Nope.

a. I am broke.

b. I don't use my phone for much outside of onehallyu, maps, youtube, music, apps and calls so it doesn't make sense to upgrade.

 

But am i still excited? yes. Because someone is finally doing something new.

[Azero]

fuckin hate samsung phones. fuckin hate apple phones. was thrilled with my huawei until I found out that huawei withdrew from the American market entirely after accusations that they were enabling the Chinese government to spy on Americans. what the fuck.

 

 

Everybody in my family and close friends got an Huawei. Like legit all those iPhone people changed to a Huawei in the last 2 years and nobody regrets it.  

 

I still want this S10

[Iceprince]

I would really love to buy this but i probably wait for 2nd or 3rd gen foldable phones from them. The idea is fantastic. Other phonecopanies are shaking!
