Samsung's rollable phone may debut sooner than you expect
Samsung is reportedly developing a groundbreaking smartphone with a rollable display. The device is likely to launch in 2025. According to The Elec, this innovative smartphone will feature a flexible screen that can extend outward, transforming into a significantly larger display when needed. It could be unveiled in the latter half of 2025 with more details about this innovative handset expected to emerge in the coming months.
Rollable phone to rival tablet screen sizes
The upcoming rollable phone from Samsung is expected to expand into a 12.4-inch display, rivaling the size of some tablets. This feature is seen as a response to Huawei's recent advancements in smartphone design, particularly the launch of the Huawei's triple-fold Mate XT sporting a 10.2-inch display. The new device from Samsung aims to provide users with an even more expansive viewing experience than its competitors.
Under-display camera and premium pricing
The rollable device from Samsung is also rumored to include an under-display camera (UDC), eliminating the need for a visible camera cutout and offering a seamless viewing experience. However, with its advanced technology and expansive screen, the phone will carry a premium price tag. This feature aligns with Samsung's history of unveiling cutting-edge display technologies in their devices.
Samsung's history with foldable display technology
Samsung has been a leader in experimenting with foldable displays, showcasing a variety of folding mechanisms that fold inward in multiple directions, resembling letters like "G" and "Z." The company has also secured patents for devices with rollable and triple-fold screens. However, these concepts have yet to reach the commercial stage. The upcoming rollable phone marks another milestone in Samsung's ongoing exploration of flexible display technologies.
