If you look back at some of the more embarrassing product launches in tech history, Samsung is a name that keeps on popping up again and again. Of course, there was the fiasco that was the Galaxy Note 7, a device that was quite literally prone to catching fire and, in some cases, exploding and injuring unsuspecting users. More recently, the launch of Samsung’s Galaxy Fold was pushed back after nearly all early review units broke just a few hours into testing.
Though Samsung ultimately released the Galaxy Fold a few months later, the device didn’t exactly instill confidence that foldable smartphones represent the wave of the future. While foldable smartphones are intriguing and novel, there’s a strong case to be made that the design is effectively a solution for a problem that doesn’t actually exist. What’s more, a good number of initial Galaxy Fold reviews were less than flattering.
