Rumor: Samsung’s foldable smartphone has screens on the inside and outside

Samsung’s foldable smartphone has a bendable screen on the inside and a flat screen on the outside, according to a new rumor. The screen on the outside would be 4.58 “, that on the inside 7.29”.

It is unknown what the aspect ratios will be, so it is unknown exactly how large the screens will be. Samsung has long hesitated about placing the screen on the outside, reports The Bell, a South Korean financial news service. That screen makes the phone usable when the main screen inside is folded in half.

Samsung would like to produce around 100,000 units of the screen per month. That would indicate that the manufacturer does not expect great success from the model. The South Korean manufacturer currently supplies around 25 million smartphones per month, according to analysts.

The manufacturer enlisted the help of South Korean company KH Vatec to design the hinge, while designing the interface together with Google and Task Force, a developer of graphical UIs.

Samsung would like to show details of its foldable smartphone for the first time this week. When it will be released is unknown. The market leader is not the first to do so. The American Royole presented its smartphone with a folding screen last week, which will be released in December.
