Samsung Stepping up the Smartphone Game

The first foldable phone?

You may be thinking:
Why would you need a foldable phone? How would that even work? 

Well, you might be finding out next year as Samsung is rumored to be launching a new foldable phone called the Galaxy X in 2017. There may even be two models. 

Samsung already has the Galaxy S7 Edge with its rounded display, and they have been working on foldable displays which might be ready to launch next year!

Samsung is considering building two new models
- One folds like a wallet
- One of the two devices will have 5-inch screen when used as a cellphone, but it can be rolled out to    show off an 8-inch display

Specifications?

Samsung is allegedly testing two variants of the device, with the main difference being the processor. One has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 620, while the other has the Snapdragon 820. These are some of the newest processors from Qualcomm that feature Quick Charge 3.0.
There is a reported 3GB of RAM, a MicroSD slot for expanded storage, and a non-removable battery.


It is unlikely that this phone will be very affordable at the beginning. 

What do you all think about this? Is it something you would be interested in?
