Samsung could, after the release of the Galaxy S8, release a much more impressive device with a futuristic design of a foldable screen.
The company is reportedly developing a prototype for a smartphone with two displays connected by a hinge in the middle. The dual-screen folding mechanism will essentially allow the device to open up to 180 degrees, according to a report by Korean website The Investor.
According to the report, the company has already ordered the parts and plans to produce between 2,000 and 3,000 prototypes in the first half of the year.
An unnamed source from the company told Insider that “Samsung appears to be testing the dual-screen device to gather ideas for its upcoming foldable phone.”
According to the publication, the Korean company is reportedly investing heavily in research efforts in display technology, with plans to develop a limited batch of foldable devices in the second half of this year.
Besides, we have heard many rumors in the past that the company is working on a flexible panel for foldable phones.
According to information, this device is codenamed Galaxy X, but to date we have not seen a working prototype.
