  • New for this release: detailed care instructions, including warnings against touching the touchscreen too hard, and exposing the phone to dust.

  • Looks like Samsung really wants us to take care of this thing ... it doesn't say anything about taking it apart though? So I guess we'll continue?

  • "When folding the device, do not place any objects, such as cards, coins, or keys, on the screen." We would never do that.

  • If you haven't seen one of these in person, here's how it stacks up:

  • In "folded" configuration, it's narrower, taller, and much thicker than a Galaxy S10+.

  • In "unfolded" form, however, it's ... big. Not quite iPad mini 5 big, but its bezels are tiny—so in terms of usable screen real estate, the two devices are actually pretty comparable.

  • It also folds more easily than an iPad Pro, and without the shower of glass shards.
