Everyone knows Samsung's developing a foldable phone, but there's also a foldable tablet in the works. It turns out both are actually the same product, though. Samsung made the clarification this week during a global launch event for the Galaxy A9. The groundbreaking design should allow for some flexibility between form factors. While there still aren't too many details out in the open...
Be on the lookout for a major announcement at the Samsung Developer Conference this fall. It’s where the South Korean company’s foldable phone might be showcased for the first time ever. In an interview with CNBC, Samsung’s DJ Koh confirmed there will be some type of announcement taking place later this year. The executive, who leads Samsung’s mobile division, reminded everyone that...
As its foldable phone is expected to launch in early 2019, Samsung has started detailing the various technologies that it should include. The South Korean company just announced that its ‘unbreakable’ OLED display was recently certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Based on the various tests done, Samsung’s technology withstood a 4-foot drop more than two dozen times in a row. It...
Forget about calling Samsung’s foldable phone the Galaxy X anymore. The long-rumored name has been wrong this whole time, according to insider MMDDJ. It may have been called the Galaxy X at one point, but now it seems Samsung will return to the drawing board if it ever left there. The product will still have Galaxy branding at the very least. Samsung would never deviate from its well-...
With its groundbreaking design, the Galaxy X could be Samsung’s most expensive mobile device ever released. The foldable phone is due out next year, and analysts are tossing around numbers for how much it’ll cost.

Samsung’s upcoming flagships, particularly the timing of their arrivals, might seem different than usual in order to accommodate for one major product in the pipeline. Rather than holding the Galaxy Note 9 until closer to when Apple makes its own announcement, the company could debut its second flagship as early as late July. Samsung is bumping up the launches of the Galaxy Note 9 and...
The mobile industry is begging for innovation. We haven’t seen anything remarkable in a few years now, and barely anyone is showing signs that they’ll step forward. And by “innovation” I mean something that not just impresses us but also makes its way into mainstream products. If your ambitious new idea is only on a prototype or something that’s guaranteed to not sell, is it really...
If everything goes as expected, Samsung will introduce the Galaxy X in early 2018. The company has been anything but shy about letting the world know it’s working on a foldable phone. Two months ago a Samsung executive confirmed the technology is in development and should debut next year. Then, shortly after its existence was acknowledged, the Galaxy X received certification in South...
There have been rumors for years, but Samsung looks like it’s finally getting serious about making a foldable phone.
