"My parents had a set of pans with detachable handles like that when I was a kid. The locking mechanisms rusted, jammed up, lost their grip strength, popped open when not held by hand, scratched up the paint on the outside of the pan, and ultimately went in the garbage."
"I really thought this was going to go another direction. The way I see it, the only reason this design is desirable is because of Jack Daniel's brand equity. If they had spoofed some other brand, it wouldn't be as funny or as profitable."
"I don't think those studio shots are showing a more vibrant paint scheme. I think that's just a bright orange light shining on the beige hook. Look at the color on the interior of the hairpin-shaped piece."
"Sorry, editing error: putting a screen on the outside negates the protection advantage as there is still a screen to protect, and it ignores the fact that a smaller phone that doesn't fold would achieve the same result without the risk of the hinge failures we've seen in the past."
"I think this design does a good job of solving a manufacturer's problem of not having a phone design that fully takes advantage of foldable screen technology, but I don't think it solves anything for consumers. Having a phone that folds gives you two advantages: 1. it makes the phone smaller, and 2. it protects the [interior] screen. Having a screen on the outside negates the first one. Putting a screen on the outside negates the second one, and ignores that there are already phones that don't require opening.I think this will sell quickly to early adopters looking to impress people, but never gain real popularity."
