I dunno, man. Maybe it’s 2018 getting me down. Maybe I’ve just been at this for too long. Maybe it’s the flu shot I just got. Whatever the case, count me among the unsurprised when some long awaited finally hits the market and, well, it looks rough.

The Royole Corporation (What they call the Quarter-Pounder Corporation in France) looks like a strong contender to be the first to market with a foldable display phone. And if these demos are to be believed, it’s not pretty. As ever, the gulf between official render (above) and real world execution (below) is pretty large.
