At last, a foldable smartphone is here!!! At the end of October 2018, the world’s first bending smartphone was introduced, not even from Samsung or LG. A model called FlexPai was developed by the company Royole Technology.

The novelty received a 7.8-inch AMOLED-display, which can be folded in half, after which a screen with a diagonal of about 4 inches is obtained.

In the unfolded state, the gadget looks like a compact tablet and has a thickness of 7.6mm. When folded, the thickness is 15.2 mm. The hinge, according to the developers, can withstand at least 200 thousand opening-closing cycles.

The phone works under the control of the proprietary water OS platform built on the basis of the Android operating system. The firmware adapts to resize the display and supports dual display. For example, in the folded state, one application can be launched on one side, and another on the other. In addition, the smartphone can be put on the table in the form of a “tent” to watch the video or launch the “smart” screen.
