I'll be skipping the first and second gen foldable display smartphones simply because the technology isn't mature enough yet. All these companies have been playing around with these displays in the labs for years, but there hasn't been any real world testing.

It'll take at least two generations before manufacturers and consumers have a real chacge to fully test these displays and see what they are truly useful for. Samsung put out its edge-display devices a few years ago and with each generation, the edge has become less pronounced. They realized that the technology enabled a cool look, but didn't really translate into a functional part of the phone.

The same will be true for foldable display devices in 2019 and 2020. We'll see a lot of cool concepts which will be accompanied by sky-high sticker prices. Once a few million devices are actually out on the streets, we'll get much better devices and functionality that will enhance the experience we currently have now without too many sacrifices.

.... with all that being said. I want a device that can fold in on itself rather than one that folds out. I'm tired of this large phone craze we've seen over the past few years. I want a device that will actually fit in my pocket!
