Video shows possible successors to Samsung’s Galaxy Z Foldable line

Right now, if you want to carry a smartphone that gives you the option of using a larger, tablet-sized display, your only option is to buy a foldable phone like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, Oppo Find N, Huawei Mate X2, and the Xiaomi Mix Fold 2. If the latest rumors are right, we could even be adding the Pixel Fold (or Notepad) to that list. All of these phones open along the horizontal axis to reveal a larger tablet-sized display.

If you’ve been a loyal reader for some time, you might remember that both Samsung and LG (before the latter unceremoniously exited the smartphone business) have worked on alternative ways to stretch a smartphone screen into a tablet-sized display. LG might have been the closest to releasing a “rollable” device by bringing the aptly named LG Rollable to the 2021 Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
Twitter tipster Ice Universe (@UniverseIce) has disseminated a tweet that contains a video showing three new Flex OLED panels that we can only assume that Samsung is developing for use on smartphones and other devices. One is a tri-fold that folds inward twice, one is a slidable, and the other appears to be a game console.

Samsung Display says at the bottom of the video that its “astonishing next-gen products include foldables that fold up into an “S” shape or fold twice inward with two hinges, folding laptops, and slidables expanded from both ends.

It isn’t clear when this was recorded or the context of the video. Having branded these as next-gen products, don’t expect Samsung to release any device using these form factors any time soon. Still, it always is interesting to look at the future. Remember when foldables were the future? Now, they are the present. Someday, we might be able to say the same thing about the devices seen in the video.
