As we have reported in the past, is Samsung preparing to introduce its first foldable smartphone in 2018, a launch that will revolutionize the market and the rules of the game.
This is a new generation of smartphone that will surely leave its mark just as Apple did with the first iPhone or as when the first folding phone was released. Of course, because we are talking about something completely new on the market, its development and manufacturing pace is quite slow given that Samsung is attempting it for the first time.
However, it was time for the world of smartphones to undergo a major upheaval that is expected to happen in the new year.
From time to time, videos of foldable devices have appeared on the internet, but no one has used them so far, a fact that raises doubts about their quality. The supply issues that arise due to the slow production are the only cause.
«It's nice to see a foldable device on the internet, but it's very difficult to produce them in mass in a short time. According to our timeline, the first smartphones will see the light of publicity in 2018, and we hope that any difficulties we are facing have been resolved.» said emphatically the Director of the company, Koh Dong-Jin.
Note that no further details have been offered beyond ’ that the folding of the phone will be inward. Also, although it is too early to talk about the price of Samsung's new smartphone, it is very likely to be quite high.
As is natural, once Samsung opens the way for the new generation of foldable smartphones, the other manufacturers will follow its lead.
