The smartphone industry has slowed down in recent years and it is a popularly held belief that the lack of innovation is behind this. However, with the arrival of 5G and foldable smartphones, things might start looking up again. One of the most anticipated devices this year is Samsung’s foldable device, with sources calling it the Galaxy Fold. Samsung first revealed a prototype display 8 years back, and the chaebol is finally ready to release a foldable smartphone. In a recent editorial, Samsung SVP and Head of Visual R&D Team, Hark-sang Kim explained how the new form factor can revive the bearish smartphone industry again.
Samsung is expected to reveal the Galaxy S10 lineup next month and just yesterday, the company revealed that its foldable smartphone would be a part of the unveiling too. A working prototype of the handset was revealed back in November during the SDC 2018. However, it is unlikely that both the Galaxy S10 and the foldable device will be launched at the same time.
