Samsung’s next big smartphone innovation will
be devices with a flexible, foldable displays
according to reports on Tuesday.

Bloomberg sources (via VentureBeat) say the
world’s leading phone maker is plotting to unleash
a device that folds in half onto itself, rather like
a make-up case.

A second device would be a 5-inch smartphone
that would "unfurl" into an 8-inch tablet, according
to the report.

The sources say the initiative, codenamed
Project Valley, will be unveiled as soon as
Mobile World Congress 2017 next February.

Samsung has been at the forefront of display
innovation for years, thanks to its AMOLED tech.

For years now we’ve seen concepts of rollable bendable
displays, but so far Samsung has only used its curved
screen technology with devices in the Galaxy Edge range.

The plan, according to the sources, would be give Samsung
a headstart over Apple’s rumoured deployment of OLED
screens for the iPhone 8 in late 2017.

The devices would be a new line for Samsung, and not be
named under the Galaxy S or Galaxy Note lines according
to the report on Tuesday.

"This product could be a game-changer if Samsung successfully
comes up with a user interface suitable for bendable screens"
Lee Seung Woo, IBK Securities analyst, told Bloomberg.

"Next year (2017), is a probable scenario".

"Their biggest obstacle was related to making
transparent plastics and making them
durable, which seems resolved
by now.”

Are we finally approaching the next
big thing in mobile?
