Samsung’s folding phone was shown off for the first time earlier this year

Earlier this week, Samsung sent out its remarkable new folding smartphone to a number of media outlets, including the BBC. It appears one explanation for the problems is that some reviewers removed a film that went over the screen, thinking it was the typical protective layer you find on all new smartphones to keep the screen in good condition until you buy it. Samsung stole headlines from its competitors by getting its apparently consumer-ready device out there quicker than anyone, a technological two-fingers in the direction of Huawei, the Chinese firm breathing down Samsung’s neck in the smartphone game.
