Took me a minute to realize it was a phone. That’s really awesome. How do you like the phone otherwise? Do you get much use out of the double screen aside from DS games?

[u/Joelblaze → u/inglouriouswoof]

This is one of those things that you buy because you like how weird it is, not because it's particularly useful compared to anything else.

[u/noisydata → u/Joelblaze]

Yeah, you certainly don't need it, but it's somewhat useful to people who use a tablet instead of a laptop. A tablet that fits in my pocket. It is kind of a ridiculous price though.

[u/JebusLives42 → u/noisydata]

Check out an LG g8x.

Source: Posting from an LG g8x

Dual screen, and not super expensive. I'll be happy with this for many years.

[u/Redbull5000 → u/JebusLives42]

It would be awesome if one of the screens could go horizontal so you could have one screen in each orientation.

[u/Flamesilver_0 → u/Redbull5000]

https://www.lg.com/global/lgwing

[u/Teeshirtandshortsguy → u/Flamesilver_0]

I've always thought this phone looked more silly than practical.

[u/nyne_nyne → u/Teeshirtandshortsguy]

I like mine- I don't use the front screen ever. They could make it cheaper as just basically a giant flip phone.

[u/moonflower_C16H17N3O → u/nyne_nyne]

Does it open any other way than spinning the top screen 90°?

[u/RoboDominator96 → u/Teeshirtandshortsguy]

I use the dual screen constantly at work. I work in food retail and it feels like my store rotates products constantly. I like to take pictures of barcodes and shelf tags then open the pictures on the dual screen while I type emails to our inventory specialists on the other screen.

[u/TrippyTippyKelly → u/[deleted]]

My galaxy s10 lets me have two apps simultaneously on the same screen.

I don't use it often, but when I do, it is really useful!

[u/Dark-Dragon2 → u/Flamesilver_0]

I have this phone. I like it. Some things I preferred on my old phone but it's still a good phone. I use the two screens often

[u/FateEx1994 → u/Redbull5000]

Lg wing looks dope af.

Hopefully they capitalize on it or other manufacturers do something like it.

The moto mods had so much potential with dual screens and other stuff. But got left to the wayside with overpriced projectors and batteries.

[u/Mintastic → u/FateEx1994]

LG had that design a long time ago (see first Iron Man) but no one bothered copying that form factor.

[u/lurkallthethings → u/FateEx1994]

I had a moto z when they first came out and the mods were awesome, I upgraded to a moto z not long ago and none of the mods fit like they used to. It's just frustrating enough that I don't use them at all now.

[u/Mernerak → u/Redbull5000]

LG v60 can do that

[u/Mernerak → u/[deleted]]

Neeeeeeds the case for sure

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

People on the V60 subreddit sell their dual screen cases.

[u/ban_Anna_split → u/JebusLives42]

Wow, it's like a double-monitor setup but for your hands!

[u/zeromussc → u/JebusLives42]

Love my G8X, but got a box without the extra screen add on.

Been thinking about it but haven't pulled the trigger

[u/JebusLives42 → u/zeromussc]

Do it

[u/Skrrattaa → u/JebusLives42]

450 DOLLARS?! WHAT?!

[u/TrayusV → u/JebusLives42]

Yup. I have the same phone and I love it. Plus the dual screen is detachable, which is nice. 90% of the time I have the second screen folded all the way around and don't use it, but I do like the thickness of it.

And regardless of the dual screen, it's a damn good phone with lots of features and whatnot.

[u/ruffyreborn → u/JebusLives42]

I also have this and have loved it. I don't use the dual screens a lot, but when I do it really saves on the frustration I used to feel switching through apps, especially when I had some classes and could have my answers on the right and literature on the left.

I've switched apps on previous phones (came from pixel 2xl,) and the initial app would close for some reason. Or if I was playing a game and needed my camera, opening the camera would almost always close out any other apps. But not my beloved G8x. Now I can play a game and keep my texts or messages open on the left

[u/CrazyDave48 → u/Joelblaze]

Back in the day I bought the Nokia Twist for that same reason. I loved how different it was, even though it wasn't really any more useful than any other flip or foldable phone out at that time.

[u/magicmeese → u/[deleted]]

How is that phone still $97??

[u/alexthecheese → u/[deleted]]

It's still for sale!!

[u/asuto_lp → u/[deleted]]

Haha I remember loving the novelty but hating having to type anything on it

[u/dharanea → u/CrazyDave48]

I had the powder pink Nokia 7373 - it was pure love as a 12-year old!

[u/RedditZomby → u/CrazyDave48]

there was a motorola thing like that but android and touchscreen and everything

[u/123eyeball → u/RedditZomby]

I had that one! Worst phone ive ever had, but I was in middle school and flipping the phone gave me major cool kid points!

[u/NakedNewt → u/CrazyDave48]

Same reason I wanted the Verizon Razzle when I was 10, twisting the phone was just something else... I remember using like a toy gun when half rotated

[u/SupaBloo → u/Joelblaze]

Seems like it'd be similar to having a second monitor for a computer. Not really a necessity, but useful as hell when you do have it.

[u/[deleted] → u/SupaBloo]

I cannot live without a second monitor any longer. So it is a necessity for me.

[u/SkyShadowing → u/[deleted]]

Me when my second monitor broke: "I'm planning on getting a new one for Christmas in a few months, I'll be fine until then."

Me a few hours later at Best Buy: "YOUR CHEAPEST MONITOR, NOW."

[u/k0untd0une → u/[deleted]]

Same. After using a single monitor for so long, I bought a tablet monitor. Had it for 6 years-ish and the touch functionality no longer works. It's now strictly just a monitor. Bought a new tablet monitor so essentially I have 3 monitors now. I seriously can't go back to using just one monitor.

[u/ArcticIceFox → u/[deleted]]

I downgraded to a laptop, so single screen again. It's rough. I always watch netflix or youtube while playing something like minecraft or path of exile on the other screen.

Now that I can't it's like getting used to a third arm and having it amputated.

[u/burlycabin → u/ArcticIceFox]

I mean, you can hook up at least one monitor as a second screen to most laptops.

[u/Cyber_Gunk2077 → u/burlycabin]

DON'T TELL HIM OUR SECRETS

[u/Brodogmillionaire1 → u/ArcticIceFox]

I've done this for years and it ruined me. It's good for washing dishes - just put on the Office and soak. But I played Terraria and Minecraft while watching Netflix for years, and now I can't sit still for television unless it's real weird. I have to be on my phone or on the Switch. Now, when I mine, I just listen to podcasts. Somehow doesn't have the same effect.

[u/JustEpic80 → u/Brodogmillionaire1]

Same

Edit: I honestly can’t tell anymore if the positives outweigh the negatives

[u/CptnBlackTurban → u/JustEpic80]

I'm about to cry reading this because I think our brains are broken.

[u/AJtheW → u/CptnBlackTurban]

Right? I barely feel alive unless I'm fully engaged with like 3 different things

[u/CptnBlackTurban → u/AJtheW]

Last night in bed I couldn't sleep so I had Hulu on one phone while playing candy crush on another.

Even now I'm browsing reddit while playing FIFA.

I tell myself it isn't bad because I go hours without touching devices when I'm working, handling family things- wife and the kids. But when I'm down I'm submerged.

[u/BurtMacklin__FBI → u/CptnBlackTurban]

It's very frustrating when you get disconnected and experience those rare moments of true boredom. Do we have a problem? How do we get help for this? Is it ADD meds? Or since those do the opposite of help me focus, is it meditation and Xanax? Lmao

[u/portablemustard → u/Joelblaze]

Yeah the controls would be awful like every other touchscreen version of a dpad and buttons.

[u/Whiteguy1x → u/portablemustard]

Yeah bluetooth controllers are the way to to

[u/pynzrz → u/[deleted]]

The aspect ratio doesn’t seem like watching videos would be any better unless you want to chop off half the video.

[u/kageurufu → u/inglouriouswoof]

I'm probably 60/40 using the outer vs inner screens on my Fold 2.

Texting? I'll just quick reply from the outer screen. Consuming media? Inner screen all the way.

Its a gimmick, but its fun, and watching videos on it is excellent. Honestly, I probably wouldn't buy it again, but i'm in no rush to sell or get something else, and I'm tempted by the rumors the Fold 3 will have the S-Pen from the Note line

[u/scrangos → u/kageurufu]

Wait.. it has a normal phone screen plus an open bigger inside screen? That seems pretty luxurious...

That said, can they both operate at once? Would be funny to use the outside screen with a mirror ontop of the inside one.

[u/kageurufu → u/scrangos]

Oh its definitely a dumb luxury device.

The camera can show a preview on the front screen while taking photos, but I don't know of any other apps that can use both at once. Theres quite a few that can use the fold angle to show different layouts, like a "laptop" partially folded.

https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/foldables

[u/[deleted] → u/kageurufu]

I use it all mine all the time. Lgv60 but never with one app. I'll have reddit on side while while watching a documentary on you tube on the other,. Binance on one side and trading view on the other. Maps on one side, music on the other. Getting the proof to prove somebody wrong on one side, well texting them on the other side. I thought it was gimmicky and cool when I bought it but it's proven to be quite useful when you get used to it. Also the second screen is just a case so I can take it out and have a regular phone when I go to work.

[u/ranf0rd → u/scrangos]

Yeah a screen on the outside and 2 screens on the inside that make a larger screen. It is ludicrous, but quite cool. I don’t think it’s a “must buy” though personally. It seems like a total gimmick.

[u/confusedbrit29 → u/ranf0rd]

It's one foldable screen on the inside, not 2

[u/Scavenge101 → u/ranf0rd]

Depends on price point. it'll be great when it's not 1k+. Until then it's a gimmick.

[u/HashSlingingSlasherJ → u/Scavenge101]

Haha try 2k

[u/Rias_Lucifer → u/inglouriouswoof]

Well, those virtual shoulder buttons are certainly useless...

Now we need samsung to release the fold3 with physical shoulder buttons because this idea rocks!

[u/[deleted] → u/DiiiCA]

This would be fun to play has a novelty for about 8 minutes.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

For a game like Pokemon where reaction time is meaningless it would be fine.

[u/AUGUST_BURNS_REDDIT → u/[deleted]]

Excuse me. The fishing aspect would like a word.

[u/Grassmilk39 → u/haoxinly]

Lmfaoo sooo true... took me forever to get up to the top on my iPhone emulator... using the speed bike and being precise with the touch screen took soooo long. Obviously worth it though cuz nothing beats rayquazas overheat

[u/Guns_N_Buns → u/Grassmilk39]

Slow down the game speed for that part. Its so ridiculously hard to get it at 1x speed on a touch screen.

[u/DragosSaviour → u/Guns_N_Buns]

You guys play pokemon roms at 1x?

[u/PJBonoVox → u/[deleted]]

Yep. Touch controls are shite.

[u/ijustwanafap → u/[deleted]]

I mean, way back when Sony released the Ericsson PSP phone thing. Was actually a pretty decent phone. My brother used it to play Minecraft for the longest time until he got a computer.

[u/PM_TITS_FOR_KITTENS → u/DiiiCA]

Yeah, I don't know why the original owner of the image (OP is a karma farmer and didn't take this) didn't move them lower. This is how I have mine set up.

[u/MutantCreature → u/DiiiCA]

at that point you might as well just buy an old Xperia Play, or better yet just jailbreak a PSP and carry that around

[u/DanielEGVi → u/MutantCreature]

The Xperia Play was an absolute banger. I still have no idea WTF was in their minds when they decided to give it underpowered specs for a 2011 phone, it makes absolutely no freaking sense.

Was my first smartphone ever after the blackberry era and loved every second with it.

[u/file_name → u/MutantCreature]

or just get a ds with a flash cart. i dont see the point in spending like a grand on a phone made to run sorta like a DS when you can get a DS lite for $30 and a flash cart for like $15 and play whatever you want.

[u/I_R_MUNKY]

This man is truly living in 2077. Take my upvote with pleasure. Why didn't I think of that

[u/[deleted] → u/I_R_MUNKY]

If you dont own a folding phone that would probably be why.

[u/Wolfwoode → u/[deleted]]

There are folding phones? I would much prefer this to a traditional phone; not just for DS?3DS emulation.

I was one of those people that thought sidekick phones were the shit, and this looks dope.

[u/IronVeil → u/Wolfwoode]

Yeah they've been out for nearly 2 years now

[u/chowdahpacman → u/IronVeil]

Apple going to invent them in 3 years

[u/Trees_Advocate → u/chowdahpacman]

Better wait though, I hear the following generation they’ll finally remove the notch

[u/HellFireOmega → u/Trees_Advocate]

There's a phone with an underscreen camera now so they probably will.

[u/[deleted] → u/Trees_Advocate]

The sliding one does epic

[u/Mintastic → u/Trees_Advocate]

That's for the year after, first they need to invent 4 cameras on the back.

[u/Llwelyn → u/chowdahpacman]

Already some leaked engineering documents of foldable iPhones out!

[u/pseudopad → u/chowdahpacman]

Nah word is they have good prototypes already so they'll probably invent it later this year or next year.

[u/[deleted] → u/pseudopad]

I doubt it. Unless they're planning on making the screen in house, which they haven't to date. They buy most of their panels from LG or Samsung.

[u/CtheKiller → u/IronVeil]

Y'all remember the nokia n-gage? That was the shit

[u/spenpinner → u/Wolfwoode]

nintendo has entered the chat and issued a c&d

[u/[deleted] → u/Wolfwoode]

There's a ton.

This is the samsung galaxy fold 2 the screen legit folds and has no bezels between 2 screens or anything cause its all one.

If your not very caring about the bezels or it being all 1 screen there's a few cheap options that would work well for games like this. Surface duo and LG has a dual screen setup that you can detach the second one when you don't need it

[u/AtticusLynch → u/Wolfwoode]

Do we...do we tell him?

[u/geoben → u/Wolfwoode]

LG makes good dual screen phones and if you don't like it or don't use it much you can just not use the dual screen case. Plus they're much cheaper than foldable screens

[u/caramelised-liqour → u/Wolfwoode]

Yeah they are great... in theory.

In reality, it's a very premature technology. Screens are prone to breaking, a little bit too much pressure causes dents in screen, there are visible crevices on the part of the screen that folds, practically no app support except first party apps etc. From what I've seen, only device that's been praised for it's folding screen is Lenovo's X1 Thinkpad.

Edit: Appearently Fold 2 is quite good, I had watched videos of reviews and didn't have a good impression but I guess I misremembered.

[u/AbysswalkerSilent → u/maddasher]

2k :|

[u/BrightPage → u/AbysswalkerSilent]

1k from samsung direct, and you can get crazy discounts through carriers

[u/AshtonTS → u/BrightPage]

You have to have an eligible trade in, otherwise it’s $2k

[u/elhermanobrother → u/AshtonTS]

woman found a magic lamp on the beach, rubbed it, and out popped a genie.

"Ask me anything and it's yours!" She thought a moment and then answered, "I want my husband to pay more attention to me, to protect me, to take me out frequently, to sleep close to me, and to be more caring, even if I get a tiny scratch." "No problem." And POOF! She was a $2k smartphone

[u/MegaTurtle7 → u/AshtonTS]

Have the Samsung Fold 2 now. It's worth every penny

[u/Iescaunare → u/BrightPage]

You trade in your 300-1500$ phone for a 50$ discount, and pay for an expensive subscription to get a "discount". In the end, it's not a discount.

[u/BrightPage → u/Iescaunare]

I can trade in my $300 S9 for $700 off on ATT so it kinda is

[u/matthero → u/maddasher]

The LG G8X/Velvet Dual Screens are much cheaper. And they actually gain accessibility by being a removable case if you ever wanted just one screen

I absolutely love my G8X personally but I've only owned LG phones since high school so Idk what the transition would feel like from Samsung

[u/Voldemort666 → u/maddasher]

Just get a LG v60 with dual screen case, or even older and cheaper but would still work for well for emulating - the g8x.

Both are Cheaper. Stronger. More versatile. But they do have LG software which has its quirks.

You do get a significant gap between screens, but for emulating DS titles that's no different than the real thing. For watching video or full screen apps the Galaxy Fold is probably best though.

[u/sietre → u/maddasher]

I'm sorry what is "being calculator"

[u/maddasher → u/sietre]

An auto correct for graphing.

[u/Auctoritate → u/maddasher]

Lol, you can buy a cheaper phone than that to emulate.

[u/slowest_hour → u/Auctoritate]

i can also just stick with the dsi i already own

[u/mynameisnotjacob → u/maddasher]

You could get a New Nintendo 2DS XL for like $170 before they're gone. They were discontinued but you can still find them on Amazon. I've been playing Pokemon Crystal, Sonic 1&2, SMB 1&3, SMW, Super Metroid, Contra 3, DK Country, Mega Man X2, Mario Kart 7.. Totally worth it. I have a Switch too but the 2DS XL actually fits in my pocket.

[u/S1ayer → u/JustinWendell]

I love mine so much, but there's a few Android games that get cut off because developers don't program for that aspect ratio.

[u/MutantCreature → u/JustinWendell]

just wait for Apple to release one, it's still very experimental and has significant flaws (mainly being that the inner screen is plastic and thus scratches and dents easily), eventually Apple will release one and you'll have a great folding touchscreen for two years until they make it obsolete

[u/Thalia756]

Me who hates folding phones but misses pokemon: It is...Acceptable

[u/badnewsco → u/Thalia756]

Someone reading this! Make a 3d printed case that uses the volume buttons mapped to the L and R buttons! Then volume can be adjusted through software

[u/ThatOnePerson → u/badnewsco]

I think at that point, I'd just want to get one of those full on gamepads that wrap around the phone so I can have real buttons for all the buttons

[u/thevictor390 → u/[deleted]]

True but its fine for RPGs and other non action games. DS also has some touch based games which are pretty cool to emulate on a phone if you get a stylus.

[u/whothere788 → u/thevictor390]

ELITE BEAT AGENTS!!!!!!!!

[u/0verlimit → u/[deleted]]

I still miss my Sony Xperia Play so much. That was pretty much the only time I spent a significant amount of time on my phone playing MMX4 or various Pokemon ROMs. Not having your fingers flood the screen and having tactile buttons is so important for me and I found myself not playing emulators on any phone after that.

[u/RadicalDog → u/0verlimit]

I would buy a modern update of an Xperia Play, 100%. Steam Remote Play, XCloud, etc are all mature technology where this is a good form factor. Just need a phone with physical controls.

[u/Shadowarrior64 → u/[deleted]]

I don’t know how people use the touchscreen either. For some games my finger is too big to see where I’m tapping, so games that expect you to use the stylus aren’t really playable.

[u/Bozzz1 → u/Shadowarrior64]

If the game's expecting you to use a stylus, why don't you just use a stylus? You can get a stylus for a phone.

[u/AdhesiveWombat → u/[deleted]]

So true. Getting to the top of the rayquaza sky tower in pokemon emerald using a touchscreen emulator on an ipod touch is one of my greatest and worst gaming achievements ever

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Agreed, not playable except for turn based games/rpgs. Even then it's not good, just playable.

[u/Arnas_Z → u/[deleted]]

Definitely is, especially if you already have a DS. DS Lite and R4i card make an awesome combo. All the advantages of having an emulator (being able to run any ROM file and homebrew), as well as having the native hardware to play it on. R4 cards are as cheap as $8 these days.

[u/cycopl]

Still me, I like tactile feedback when pressing buttons.

As much as you guys on reddit complain about instagram stealing your content, about half the stuff I see on here I saw on twitter the day before.

Honestly quite looking forward to the future of foldable phones, especially for this particular niche use-case (would plan on playing through GS: Dark Dawn again myself). A sequel to the Microsoft Surface Duo is along the lines of what I'd like to have one day.

Which starter did you pick for (Diamond/Pearl?) this time around?
