Technology
Samsung is actually happy to see Apple join the foldable phone scene with Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone, apparently called "iPhone Duo."
The company's R&D leads told Wired that Apple's arrival will bring more attention and some extra credibility to foldables.
Samsung's Hee-Cheul Moon said he feels proud of how much Samsung has shaped this space with its own innovations.

Samsung is putting a spotlight on lighter designs, with the new Galaxy Z Fold 8 weighing just 201gm, lighter than Apple's expected foldable (which could weigh up to 241gm).
With both companies now in the mix, and Apple's iPhone Duo rumored to have a similar style to Samsung's Fold 8, things are about to get interesting in the foldable market.
