Samsung tipped to be showing off its bendable smartphone at developer conference today
By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla
Samsung is expected to give developers a peek into the future by revealing its foldable smartphone concept at the ongoing developer conference taking place in San Francisco. As seen by a three-year-old video above (a Lenovo concept device that folds from tablet to smartphone), the technology is not new.
If anyone can push such a concept into the mainstream (and charge $2,000 for it), Samsung is well poised to lead the charge. A folding Galaxy phone arriving in 2019 is the best way to commemorate 10 years of Galaxy devices. Samsung had done flexible and bendy phones in the past and has bought us edge displays and the like. A tablet with an OLED display that can do double duty as a smartphone or even triple duty as a DeX-enabled PC replacement is the gadget of our collective dreams.
