TCL's tri-fold phone-tablet thing is absurd, impractical, and monstrous

This triple-bending concept is so ridiculous it will never be made. But dare to dream.

You've probably seen smartphones that unfold into tablets and even smartphones that just fold in half to become smaller. But I can almost guarantee you've never seen a tablet that folds in two places like this TCL "tri-fold display concept."

Where do we even begin with this thing? Unfolded, the device works like a tablet with an expansive 10-inch screen with a very awkward 20.8:9 aspect ratio.
