The Galaxy Fold launch delay underscores the infancy of flexible displays and Samsung's target market

Samsung stepped out today with an official launch delay announcement of the new Galaxy Fold. The 7.3-inch foldable, tablet-hybrid Android device, with its beautiful Dynamic OLED display, showcases great potential for the device category, collapsing down to a 4.6-inch display pocketable format when closed. Unfortunately, almost immediately, reports of Galaxy Fold displays failing with early reviewers and analysts brought the rollout of this promising device to a screeching halt.

nitial findings from the inspection of reported issues on the display showed that they could be associated with impact on the top and bottom exposed areas of the hinge. There was also an instance where substances found inside the device affected the display performance."here and as such, a relatively high failure exposure risk among users.

Without question, any potential customer of a foldable display-equipped device from any manufacturer, not just Samsung, is assuming the classic risk of the early adopter. I, as well as other industry analysts, project that foldable display technology will be an ever-increasing part of our device ecosystem in the not-so distant future.

Waiting eagerly for launching of it.

It underscores the lack of fundamental change in technology over the past 30 years. It underscores the lack of strategy in businesses like Samsung and Apple. It underscores the lack of human factors in design. It underscores the current design industry's retreat into oblivion.
