The screen is well-protected while closed, but more susceptible to scratches while open, because they haven't figured out how to make the hardened glass that covers regular smartphones foldable. At least I remember reading that about the Galaxy Fold. Maybe they've solved the problem in the Motorola device.

- acdha 7y agoYeah, it's a really interesting engineering trade-off: I know multiple other parents who cracked a screen playing with their kids so you'd hope to avoid that but not get more damage from dirt, etc. I just hope that whoever is working on this has enough resources to test it thoroughly rather than getting hammered in the news post-launch.
- nbanks 7y agoI've been using the Gemini PDA for the past year; it's recently been replaced by the Cosmo Communicator. It has a normal glass screen that folds like a mini laptop to reveal a keyboard. Mostly I like the keyboard (I'm typing on it now) because I find it hard to get over 60 WPM on a smartphone. However it's also nice to have the screen protected.
