| + | [* black] Unlike the dull slabs of glass we're used to, this Smartphone/tablet hybrid has lots of potential entry points—and we're not talking the good kind. |
| [* black] To achieve the fold, the thin lip that surrounds (and protects!) the screen has a gap where the two halves meet. You don't notice it until you notice it... and then you can't really resist poking just about every tool you have into it. Just us? Oh. | |
| [* black] The gap doesn't ''seem'' like a huge deal, but the display is left unsupported there—so should something accidentally enter it, it's essentially a bull in a china shop. | |
| [* black] Other notable gaps include the opposite side of the hinge, where our opening picks easily slip in. This entrance is far less dangerous, but still, a weak point. | |
| [* icon_note] It's been a while since we've seen a phone with this many gaps—surely a product of the industry trending away from phones with moving parts. It'll be interesting to see how future folding designs overcome these weaknesses in the future. |
