My question is, how many folds a foldable screen will able to endure?

Vulnerability in Facebook login allowed attackers to take-over any account

A security issue in Facebook’s login procedure made it possible for attackers to take-over random accounts. The vulnerability allowed attackers to add their own mail address and phone number to the account of another user.

By requesting a password reset, they could change the password and login to the account. To perform the attack, the attacker first needed to trick the victim into clicking a specifically prepared link.

6 major challenges foldable phones need to overcome to prove they're not a fad

The fact is, foldable phones are cool to look at and they're exciting to write about — it sure beats writing about another well-made Samsung knockoff that costs hundreds less — but there are clear engineering challenges that still need to be overcome for foldable phones to really herald in a new era of mobile. Solutions that not even Samsung has figured out yet. 
If foldable phones are ever to become mainstream, all of the following need to be solved.

The Mate X is Huawei’s 5G foldable

The world’s fastest growing mobile company has long had a chip on its shoulder when it comes to Apple and Samsung. For too long, the company has had to go out of its way to remind the world that it’s capable of being every bit as innovative as those better established brands, a concept very much at the heart of the Mate X.
The device lives right at the cross section of the year’s biggest forward looking trends — foldables and 5G, and unlike some of the concepts we’ve seen to date, the product does so with panache.

Samsung's foldable phone is officially the 'Galaxy Fold'

The device is now officially known as the Galaxy Fold, and much like the prototype we saw back in November, we're looking at a 4.6-inch secondary AMOLED display on the outside, followed by a much larger 7.3-inch Infinity Flex AMOLED screen when the device is unfolded.

It has a price and date, too: a whopping $1,980 when it launches on April 26th (May 3rd for Europe), meaning you'll have about two months to gather all that money while choosing between "Cosmo Black," "Space Silver," "Martian Green" and "Astro Blue."
