When the newest demo of the Figure 02 humanoid robot folding towels dropped, I knew I had to make a video about it. CNET's robot coverage always gets comments from viewers asking if robots could do their laundry. In the demo, Figure 02 folds towels at a rate of approximately 22 seconds per towel. Figure With advancements in AI and robotics, the dream of automated household chores feels closer, but it's not quite here yet.

After folding and unfolding the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 200,000 times by hand, Korean YouTube channel Tech-it found that the folding phone's redesigned hinge and thinner design couldn't withstand repeated handling. The stunt, which was livestreamed over the course of a few days, found that the phone would reboot every 6,000 to 10,000 folds. At 46,000 folds, the phone started to creak. At 75,000 folds, an unknown black liquid started to leak out of the hinge. At 175,000 folds, all speakers, incl

A YouTuber Is Folding and Unfolding the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 200,000 Times

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-12-08 18:06:00

Folding phones are no longer a fad. But they have moving parts that regular smartphones lack, and the constant folding and unfolding could eventually lead to failure. For the last few days, the host of Korean YouTube channel Tech-it has been folding and unfolding the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 over and over and over, with the goal of doing 200,000 folds. The fold-a-thon is presumably meant to see how the redesigned hinge and flexible display hold up on Samsung's thinnest foldable yet. Tech-it's h

Viral Video of Robot Arms Folding Laundry Confirmed to Be CGI

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-15 05:15:15

Nothing captures the public imagination quite like an outrageous contraption that promises to do your most annoying chores for you. Case in point, this week, a video of a laundry-folding robot called "Lume" went viral on X. It's not a humanoid machine, but a pair of robotic arms that double as two bedside floor lamps — "the first robot designed to blend into your home," a caption reads. In the video, a woman dumps a bunch of blankets onto her bed, before the light fixture automaton unsheathe th

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 Review: A Promising Update

wired.com Julian Chokkattu 2025-12-30 02:03:00

It's hard not to like Samsung’s latest folding phones. Now in their seventh generation, the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 have reached a level of hardware refinement near perfection for their respective categories. That might sound like something I've been saying for the last several years—after all, every new Fold and Flip has made small tweaks to make them better than their predecessors—but the changes from 2024 feel more drastic. With thinner frames, larger screens, and polished designs,

Apple Only Has One Hope for a Foldable iPhone that Beats Samsung

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-01-06 00:08:42

Next year, Apple will enter the foldable phone market, and after more than seven years of mainstream folding devices, its debut won’t be light on competition. As noted by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is no stranger to tough competitors, but its folding phone launch is shaping up to be a little different. “When the company introduces its first foldable iPhone at the end of next year, it will be entering a product category that’s already seven years old—pioneered and dominated by its biggest ha

The Folding iPhone Is Getting Real (and Might Use Samsung Parts)

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-01-09 04:00:00

This may be the final year without a folding iPhone. New reports this week suggest that Apple will launch the long-rumored folding iPhone in 2026. The latest buzz suggests that Apple is working with Samsung Display to help make the crease-free screen for the folding iPhone. It's no secret that Apple has been tinkering with bendable screen designs for years. The company has filed various patents about screens that fold, scroll and even self-heal from scratches. Last year, Bloomberg reported that

We now have a better idea of when the Samsung tri-fold will launch

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-12 17:24:51

Samsung TL;DR A long-time leaker claims that Samsung will launch its first triple-screen foldable or tri-fold device in September. This comes a week after Samsung’s mobile head said the company wants to launch the device before the end of 2025. Samsung’s tri-fold is said to offer a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, a 10-inch folding screen, and the same rear cameras as the Z Fold 7. Samsung‘s mobile chief confirmed last week that the company aims to launch its first triple-screen foldable phone (also

While Samsung has been showing off mobile display concepts with three screens at trade events like CES for several years, it might finally be bringing one to market if a leaked UI animation is any indicator. An animated image from a software build of One UI 8 appears to show what some are dubbing a "Galaxy G Fold" device with three display panels, as reported by Android Authority last week. The screens would be capable of displaying different information or working in unison as one large displa

Samsung is about to find out if Ultra is enough

theverge.com Allison Johnson 2026-02-03 05:00:00

I don’t often get asked about the phones I’m testing when I’m out and about, unless it’s a folding phone. Then I usually hear some version of the same thing: “Oh, I thought about getting one of those! But then I just got a [insert slab-style phone name here].” My anecdotal data matches the actual sales figures; there are many more people curious about folding phones than there are buyers of folding phones. Samsung would very much like that to not be the case, and, by all indications, it’s about

A Foldable iPhone Needs to Be At Least This Thin or It’s DOA

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-02-10 00:13:43

Feels like just yesterday that folding phones weren’t even a thing, and now we’re somehow drowning in a sea of crease-filled screens. If, like me, you’ve been wondering what else phone makers can offer the folding phone market that hasn’t already been done, then Chinese phone maker, Honor, may have an answer for you: thinness. The Honor Magic V5, which was just unveiled, has retaken the title for the thinnest foldable on the market, which sets a new bar, not just for Samsung—the most iconic fol

cnbc.com Arjun Kharpal 2026-03-08 02:34:22

Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Fold6 at its Galaxy Unpacked event in Paris. The tech giant said the foldable device is thinner and lighter than its predecessor. Samsung will unveil a thinner version of its flagship foldable smartphone at a launch likely set to take place next month, as it battles Chinese rivals to deliver the slimmest devices to the market. Folding phones, which have a single screen that can fold in half, came in focus when Samsung first launched such a device in 2019. But Chin
