Bloomberg said that Samsung will announce another foldable phone with a different design, one that folds vertically as opposed to outward like the Galaxy Fold as soon as this year. It will sell also third phone that has folds outward, similar in design to the recently announced Huawei Mate X, Bloomberg said.
Folding screens allow a customer to use a device like a traditional phone but can unfold to reveal a larger, tablet-like display, acting as a sort of two-in-one device. Bloomberg said Samsung is facing issues with its current crop of foldable displays, which show"a crease that appears on the panel after it's been folded about 10,000 times." The Galaxy Fold has a plastic screen, but a supplier used by both Apple and Samsung, Corning, is already testing foldable glass that could be ready in the next few years. It's unclear if Samsung will use those panels.
