Samsung may unveil its first roll-up phone this year
A well-known whistleblower has announced that Samsung will unveil a roll-up phone this year, in addition to unveiling the new Galaxy Z Flip and Z Fold models. . According to published reports, the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and Z Fold 3 have been widely welcomed in various markets, and the company plans to deliver more than 10 million clamshell phones to users by 2022.
Samsung's latest clamshell phones are said to use the nicknames B4, Q4 and N4. The B4 and Q4 are the same as the next generations of the ZFold 3 and Z Flip 3, but the N4 is a brand new phone. One of the most famous whistleblowers in the world, who works under the Twitter name Ice universe, claims that this new phone will be introduced in the second half of 2022. He says that Samsung chose the nickname Diamond for it and uses a rolling screen. Ross Young, another well-known whistleblower, wrote in response to the rumor that according to the latest information at his disposal, Samsung has postponed the release of this phone to another year, but nevertheless confirmed the veracity of this new rumor through informed sources. Will follow.
At present, no company has been able to market the rolling phone, but in this The background of several concept phones has been produced. For example, we can mention the Oppo X concept phone, which uses a rolling display based on the engine, and thanks to this mechanism, its screen becomes smaller and larger. After the introduction of this concept phone, various sources announced the possibility of its release in the near future, but this has not yet happened. Samsung also unveiled a rolling screen in 2021, but no specific date has been set for a phone based on this technology. Apple is one of the companies that is considering this idea, and in this regard we can mention the patent that was registered by Apple in 2020.
Although clamshell phones are still widely used They have not gone to different markets, but in any case, companies are exploring new ideas in this direction. One of the major problems with clamshell phones has been the issue of screen folding, which Oppo and Honor have recently been able to address to a large extent. In addition, the low durability of these phones is also a major concern for users, but in this regard, we must mention the waterproof body of the latest Samsung clamshell phones. This means that significant progress has been made in the second area of the body as well.
If you think of making handsets Folding is very difficult, we must say that the production of roll-up phones is even more complicated. These types of phones are supposed to bypass the limitations of clamshell phones. With roll-up phones, you no longer need a secondary display, and a regular phone can turn into a tablet. Before leaving the mobile market, LG wanted to launch the first roll-up phone, but it never reached users. As we said, making this type of phone is very complicated and difficult, and on the other hand, their body is probably less durable than clamshell phones. Samsung executives have given the confidence to launch the first roll-up phone sooner than expected. If this roll-up phone hits the market in 2022, competitors like Oppo are likely to accelerate the development of their roll-up phones to stay ahead of the competition.
