The smartphone industry has focused on foldable display technology, especially in the last few years. Companies such as Samsung and Huawei have already been producing foldable screen phones for a while and bring them to consumers. The latest information reveals that South Korean technology giant Samsung’s perspective on foldable screen phones has seriously deepened.
Samsung’s new smartphone patent has emerged. This patent, called “Galaxy Z Flip & Slide”, shows that the company is working on a smartphone that can both slide and fold. It is not known whether the smartphone, which has a very interesting design, will become a real product. So how does Samsung’s new patent look?
Here is Samsung’s phone with both foldable and slidable screens:
The smartphone patented by Samsung seems to have multiple combinations of use. For example, this smartphone can be folded and unfolded like the Galaxy Z Flip. Users will also be able to enlarge the screen by pulling it. In fact, we can say that everything is relatively normal up to this point. The real surprise comes after that. According to the patent, the screen of this smartphone can also be extended from the folding point. When you stretch the phone in this way, you will see an image like this:
The images among Samsung’s patent documents show that this smartphone can allow two people to play games at the same time. However, how functional this will be is a matter of some debate. Two people go face to face and they can just play a game. What if one of the parties tries to pull the phone towards itself with the excitement of the game?
