Samsung made waves last year when they announced they planned to release a phone that folded. No, no like the old Razr phones we all miss, but with a real full screen that folded onto itself, satisfying techy nerds need for a large screen everywhere. Is this a sign that the future is here, or are folding phones just another trend?

Ultimately, everything in the tech world is ‘just another trend’. As technology advances, our options also advance. The best cell phone right now was unthinkable ten years ago, and we have no way to predict what we will see in ten years’ time.

For now, expect folding phones – once perfected – to be all the rage. This is fun and interesting technology, and who doesn’t want a phone that will fold out to be the size of a tablet? Think of the games you could play, the pictures you could take, the movies you could watch!
