Just when we thought the next big leap in smartphones was to make them more affordable, Samsung goes and ruins everything by making the expensive, huge, innovative, and more than potentially addictive Galaxy Fold. And that name isn’t hyperbolic but quite literal thanks to the 7.3-inch Infinity Flex Display with a brilliant new polymer that Samsung invented, along with a display that’s 50 percent thinner than conventional versions. The new tech allows the two-sided phone to close flat and securely, and the twin batteries and internals are split evenly between the two sides, giving it vital balance. Most importantly, it opens your world to smartphone multi-tasking by enabling three app usage, so you can conduct a video call, navigate a map, and look up reviews at the same time, for example. Plus, you don’t have to unfold it to use the phone. Make calls and take photos while it’s closed, and then manage things at a closer level with the phone fully open. Other features include a cutting-edge AP chipset, 12 GB of RAM, the ability to charge another device, and six lenses strewn throughout so you can take photos in any configuration. Look for the Galaxy Fold for purchase in the Spring of 2019 and quite possibly the most distracted driving you’ve ever seen in your life, as a result.
