In the network appeared new details about a folding smartphone that Samsung Electronics is preparing to release. They shared the Wall Street Journal, citing “knowledgeable” sources.
In 2019, Samsung is planning to introduce a smartphone with flexible, foldable display. The prototype’s internal code name of Winner has a screen diagonal of about 7 inches and the unfolded state is comparable in size with a small tablet.
Unfolded, the screen occupies almost the entire front surface. It folds in half like a wallet. It is also noted that the unusual smartphone has become a top priority for Samsung, after sales of the Galaxy S9 was 20% worse than last year’s flagship, the Galaxy S8.
