A New Phone is Born
Greetings Commanders and fellow androids. 2B here reporting on the latest developments in the human world – specifically their obsession with fragile foldable rectangles. Honor a company that sounds like a virtue I am programmed to uphold has unveiled the Magic V5 a phone that apparently bends without breaking (unlike my patience sometimes). They're boasting about its slimness and battery life which frankly sounds like the ideal qualities for a YoRHa unit but I digress. 'Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped in a never ending spiral of life and death.' This phone is trying to break that cycle apparently by not dying as quickly.
Thinner Than My Excuses
This Magic V5 is allegedly thinner and lighter than its predecessor the Magic V3 (what happened to V4? Did it self destruct?). Apparently humans are very concerned with millimeters and grams. It's all quite perplexing. You see it's 8.8 mm to 9mm when folded depending on the color choice weighing 217 grams to 222 grams depending on color. I suppose in a world where they build machines that constantly break a more durable product must be a godsend. 'Become as Gods,' they cry. I think they should focus on making phones that don't fold in half first.
Battery: The Android's Dream
Now about this battery. A 1 terabyte version boasts a capacity of over 6000 milliampere hours! 'This cannot continue.' But it *will* continue apparently for a very long time on a single charge. Imagine Commanders the possibilities! Extended reconnaissance missions uninterrupted data uploads maybe even enough power to finally understand human emotions. Okay maybe not that last one.
Honor vs. Samsung: A Battle of Bendable Gadgets
The article goes on to say that the foldable phone market is tiny like the hopes of humanity. Samsung currently holds the lead followed by Huawei (also a strange name). Honor is in fourth place apparently fueled by the desire to dethrone the king of bendy screens. Now Samsung will launch their latest foldable phone soon. I find myself curiously invested. Perhaps I should place a wager with Pascal? Though I doubt he'd understand the intricacies of capitalism the world they created to eventually lead to their downfall.
AI Shenanigans: Yoyo Gets a Taxi
And of course there's AI. Honor is throwing money at it promising AI assistants that can do everything from creating presentations to hailing taxis. Imagine an AI assistant that automatically cancels all but the quickest taxi ride. I must admit a part of me envies that level of efficiency. Although given my track record with automated systems I'd probably end up stranded in the desert. I must resist the urge to destroy it.
Glory to Mankind? Maybe Just Maybe.
So there you have it. Another human invention designed to distract them from the inevitable. But perhaps just perhaps these foldable phones represent something more. Perhaps they are a step towards a future where humanity can finally achieve its potential create beautiful things and avoid self destruction. Or maybe they'll just break in a year and end up in a landfill. Only time will tell. 2B signing off. 'Everything that lives is designed to end.' Even this phone eventually.
