Samsung's Galaxy Z Trifold features an innovative hinge mechanism and a screen designed to absorb shocks.

      A tri-fold design that seeks to address the durability issues of foldable devices

      What’s new? Samsung has just launched the Galaxy Z TriFold, its inaugural phone with two hinges that unfolds into a 10-inch tablet. The company claims it features the most sophisticated hinge and display technology to date, constructed to bend twice while avoiding a fragile or bulky feel.

      The dual-rail ‘Armor FlexHinge’ incorporates two different hinge sizes to evenly distribute weight across the three panels.

      This triple-fold configuration allows the screen panels to come together with minimal gaps, resulting in a slimmer, pocket-friendly design.

      The main 10-inch display incorporates a shock-absorbing layer to endure the stress of double folding.

      Why is this significant? Samsung is venturing into the tri-fold market, where Huawei has garnered attention with its Mate XT. Unlike Huawei’s device, which folds in a zig-zag manner with panels wrapping around the exterior, Samsung's design features both outer panels folding inward over the central screen. This design keeps the structure compact, eliminates gaps between panels, and maintains a slim profile when folded.

      Achieving this design necessitated significant engineering of the hinge. Samsung has upgraded its Armor FlexHinge into a system with two hinges of different sizes to ensure weight is properly balanced across the three folding sections. Both hinges utilize a dual-rail mechanism encased in titanium, with a thin metal shield guarding the components against wear.

      As foldable devices often face durability challenges, Samsung has added a shock-absorbing layer beneath the principal 10-inch panel along with a reinforced coating on top. The back of the device is made of a polymer reinforced with ceramic glass fiber, a material that prevents cracking while keeping the device lightweight.

      Why does it matter? If you often switch between tasks such as browsing, messaging, document editing, and video watching, the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold provides a large and versatile display that is easy to carry. The enhanced hinges and shock-absorbing display mitigate the typical fragility concerns associated with foldables, making this a more practical option for daily use compared to many previous foldable phones.

      I am overwhelmed by subscriptions, but I've finally discovered an iPhone app to help manage the chaos

      Navigating subscriptions in today's world is inevitable, but tracking them and making necessary cancellations is manageable.

      We live in a subscription-driven age. It may not be ideal, and the exhaustion from constant app payments can detract from the smartphone experience for many. Even web browsers have entered the subscription landscape, largely due to AI influences. However, managing multiple subscriptions is a chore, aside from the evident financial repercussions. If you are like me, juggling all sorts of academic and creative subscriptions for family members becomes a significant headache. Additionally, unexpected emails about auto-payments that appear out of nowhere in the notification shade often bring unwelcome surprises.
