Their cameras and image processing tech were innovative at the beginning right? They were beating out most other phone manufacturers until they caught up. Also their folding phones seemed pretty innovative in regards to their form factor. Idk ¯(ツ)/¯
I think they made their own technology which sounds kinda similar to hall effect. We'll have to wait and see if it works but that doesn't generate hate and clicks.
This reminds me of that guy on reddit who would make useless inventions. I wonder how he's doing.
