We have simply began getting used to folding smartphones with one fold, however Samsung is already planning to push issues to the subsequent stage.
A brand new patent by the corporate printed on the 26th May 2020 on the USPTO encompasses a handset with a number of fold factors, each inwards and outwards.
While it’s not clear what the advantage of the inward-folding prime half could also be, one suggestion is that it might make the rear digital camera front-facing, permitting one digital camera to serve two functions, and eliminating the notch or in-display digital camera. This doesn’t fairly clarify the necessity for the outward-folding backside half nevertheless, however this will likely merely be Samsung flexing.
The patent is by Samsung Display, not Samsung Electronics, and due to this fact displays a brand new versatile display screen innovation by the corporate, so it’s not clear if it is going to present up in a handset any time quickly but.
