With all eyes on Samsung’s new foldables yesterday, Oppo subbrand OnePlus couldn’t help itself. “We OPEN when others FOLD,” the brand tweeted, in reference to the rumored name of its foldable. It confirmed its foldable plans in February, when it said it’d be releasing the foldable in the second half of the year.
Less than a day after Samsung announced its new foldables, Xiaomi is teasing the Mix Fold 3, which will be announced in China next month with an interesting rear quad-camera setup and Leica branding.
Let this serve as a reminder that a) hot foldable summer is alive and kicking and b) China gets a lot of foldables that never make their way to the West.
Many expected the previous owner of @X on Twitter to be handsomely compensated when the platform took over the handle after its rebrand. But the payday never came. “They just took it essentially — kinda what I thought might happen,” Gene X Hwang tells The Telegraph.
“All’s well that ends well,” Hwang subsequently tweeted from the far less prestigious @x12345678998765 handle.
I guess projecting the company’s new “X” logo beats “Elon Musk: supreme parasite,” “Space Karen,” or “proof Elon an idiot” — all things previously projected onto Twitter HQ.
