Samsung showcased foldable Galaxy X at CES 2018 Privately

Samsung also introduced foldable Smartphones previous year at MWC 2017 by setting up a private exhibition room for its major customers.

While numerous leading smartphone manufacturers were on the show floor of the Consumer Electronics Show of 2018 in Las Vegas, not a lot of new top products were launched. “The phone development seems to be nearly finished, raising expectations for the phone launch”, said a source present at the CES meeting that took place on January 10. Samsung will reportedly join the affair in order to put the Galaxy S9 series in the limelight. We saw this tech before in Samsung’s W2018 flip phone so it would make sense to see it trickle into the company’s flagship smartphone line.

The Galaxy S9 and the Galaxy S9+ will likely be incremental upgrades to the Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8+ at least as far as design is concerned. According to some anonymous industry insider info, Samsung took advantage of this practice at CES 2018 to showcase its progress on the eagerly-anticipated foldable mobile displays concept. Let us know in comments.

There is still a debate as to how the Galaxy X will look like. We anticipate that it will priced at the top end of luxury phone prices due to the innovative technology that is no-doubt hard and expensive to develop and implement. It seems that we will have to wait another month for official information, but it should be out within the first quarter which is actually pretty fast considering it seems like the Galaxy S8 just came out (although it was actually last March heh).

“We have a plan to adopt a foldable display in our roadmap”.

Interest for this enigmatic foldable device has been rising in recent years, with heavy speculation and even concept product renders of a so-called Galaxy X phone frequently making the rounds.

When folded, it can be used as a phone and when unfold it can be used as a tablet.

The selfie camera gets a big boost with a dual lens configuration for effects like bokeh in real time. From what one of the exhibitors stated (who was present in the private viewing at the CES 2018 event), Samsung’s foldable phone sports a 7.3-inch foldable OLED screen.
