CES 2022: Samsung Showcases New Types of Foldable Displays
Jan. 6, 2022Samsung Shows Four Types of Foldable Displays
Starting with the S and G Folds, thesedisplay types will involve three folds. While the former will fold in a way to form an S, the latter will fold inwards. The G Fold screen will fold in a way to avoid any scratches on the screen as it folds. Both of them will offer users a much larger screen area once they are unfolded, making multitasking a breeze and viewing content delightful.
Samsung has also showcased the Flex Note display, which isn’t for the Galaxy Note phone if you are wondering because of the name! Thisfoldable screen is meantfor laptops, and thus, a foldable laptop might be in the pipeline. This form factor is said to convert the lower part of the laptop into a touch screen for numerous functionalities. It could be converted into a controller for gaming, a virtual keyboard, a media controller for editing, and more.
And when the Samsung foldable laptop is converted into a flat display, it might prove to be quite an experience for watching yourfavorite Netflix moviesand TV series!

The device, if it sees the light of the day, will feature a big screen when the folded part of the screen slides out. The slidable part of thedisplay can allow for various app shortcuts, which will again make multitasking easy.
One thing to note is that these are just concept displays types and we are not sure if they will be incorporated in future Samsung foldable devices. Although, there are chances that the new foldables might launch soon. Whatever the case is, we will keep you posted!
