Samsung is apparently working on a rollable phone with a 12.4-inch screen.
The device could launch in the second half of next year, potentially making it the first rollable phone on the market.
It’s believed Samsung has also stopped producing dummy phones for retailers as part of cost-cutting measures.
HUAWEI beat Samsung (https://www.androidauthority.com/best-samsung-phones-771831/) to the punch with the Mate XT (https://www.androidauthority.com/huawei-mate-xt-3479745/) last week, which is the world’s first triple-screen foldable phone. However, it seems like Samsung could be the first to market with another innovative form factor.
The Elec (https://www.thelec.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=30115) (h/t: PhoneArena (https://www.phonearena.com/news/Samsung-set-to-release-a-rollable-display-phone-to-counter-Huaweis-Mate-XT_id162656)) reports that Samsung is working on a rollable phone, featuring a 12.4-inch screen when unfurled. That would be much larger than existing foldable phones (https://www.androidauthority.com/best-foldable-phones-922793/) and larger than the Mate XT and its 10.2-inch display. The phone is also said to offer an under-display selfie camera.
