Like a phone case that fits onto it or just a carry bag?

Seems like a cool idea, but those screens aren't really ready for this type of prime time.

Foldable phone screens have been around for 5 years, flexible screens longer than that. The tech has been around and ready there's just not heavy adoption yet.

It's been around, and is ready for some implementations, but it's not ready for prime time, and, IMO, a $3400 laptop is prime time.

It seems ideal for wristwear.

Imagine pulling up to the ~~car meet~~ LAN party with this

What the fuck do you even do on a tall scree... Oh its basically a portable vertical monitor

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 1 points 1 week ago

How expensive is it anyway isn't it just better to get a second monitor if you have to?

Zenbook Duo is much simpler and actually seems effective.

It could have been so simple: the display on a roll with a spring and a sensor to keep track and rescale the resolution accordingly. You pull at the top to extend the display to x2 and more and be done. Maybe add a scissor at the back to keep the foil without wrinkles. It would have been old-Lenovo-style sturdy instead of the plaything with a motor that breaks after 2 years.
