Now flexible displays can hardly be called foldable displays, so it would be quite a leap for Samsung, but at the same time, a patent filed by Samsung has revealed the company’s plans for a foldable tablet, or at the very least indicates that the company could be interested in pursuing such a device.
Apparently prototypes of the alleged foldable tablet have already been made and that Samsung is currently working hard to bring it to a commercial level, and if all goes according to plan, then yes, 2015 could be when we can look forward to a tablet that folds up. We’re not sure how the device will look like, although we can imagine that such a device could end up being rather bulky.
At the same time with a tablet that is foldable, Samsung could take things to the next level by creating devices that could act as a tablet and a phone at the same time, allowings user to fold the screen to make it smaller to use as a phone, or unwrapping it to use it as a tablet. It’s an intriguing idea but what do you guys think? Is this something you might be interested in?
