Talking to CNN, Escobar Inc. CEO Olof Gustafsson said the screen was made of proprietary plastic "making it almost unbreakable". Even this leader also declared that this is "the most durable phone screen on the market".

Not only that, their selling price is only from 349 USD (equivalent to 8.07 million), only 1/7 of the Galaxy Fold. Phones using Google’s Android operating system. "Our phones have undergone rigorous testing," Gustafsson said. "The only way to break the phone is to burn it."

From prisons to smartphones

Escobar Inc. was founded by Roberto Escobar in 1984 as a joint stock company on "protecting as‌sets and values" for the Escobar brothers. Pablo Escobar is believed to be responsible for the 80% of the world’s cocaine trafficking in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Forbes magazine put Pablo Escobar on the list of world billionaires between 1987 - 1993. Escobar was shot dead on 2 December in his home town of Medellín while fleeing the Colombian government.

Meanwhile, Roberto surrendered to police in 1992 during a persecution by Medellín Cartel and the man spent 10 years in prison for drug-related crimes. After being released, he set out on a tour of one of his brother’s homes for a business and once claimed to have discovered a breakthrough in finding a cure for AIDS.

Now, nearing the sky, Roberto has fulfilled his dream of becoming a smartphone manufacturer by following Samsung with Galaxy Fold. Despite the attractive price and novel design, but few people dare to buy and dare to evaluate this smartphone of the "cheeks" of a time.
