Samsung presented last year the first generation of its commitment to the world of folding smartphones. Just over a month ago, the Korean company introduced the second generation, a second generation with many improvements in all aspects, both on the screen and in the operation of the hinges.
At the beginning of the year, Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip, a folding clamshell smartphone that rivals the Motorola RAZR, although the quality of the materials of this model as well as its features, they left a lot to be desired. Samsung's experience in the field of screens of all kinds is beyond doubt.
Apple has been betting on Samsung's screens for several years and for now it seems that it will continue to do so when it launches its folding smartphone. In fact, if we pay attention to the Ice Universe filter, Apple has requested a large number of folding screens from Samsung, which could indicate that the development of the folding iPhone convertible to iPad could be closer than we could initially expect.
Samsung has become a benchmark in the world of folding telephony and not only because of its screens but also because of its hinge system, a technology with which it wants to become the main supplier of components for this type of smartphones, just as it already is in the field of screens, memory modules and storage…
It is not a secret that Apple is already working on a folding smartphoneIn fact, it has patented several designs that implement this technology. At the moment, the only manufacturer that has made progress in the folding screen sector has been Samsung, since at the moment LG has not launched any model of this type on the market and does not plan to do so soon.
