Potentially the next big leap in phone design<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest patent rumours and leaks suggest that Samsung\u2019s next big move in the foldable phone market could create quite a buzz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its Foundry division facing significant losses and supposedly disappointing sales from the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6<\/a>, Samsung seems ready to try something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The recently leaked patents (via Android Headlines) reveal some jaw-dropping designs for foldable and rollable Galaxy devices that could redefine what we expect from the best folding phones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Samsung\u2019s rumoured tri-fold Galaxy phone is something I\u2019m particularly excited about. Imagine unfolding your phone not just once, but twice, to reveal a tablet-sized screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, Honor released its Mate XT Ultimate in September, but it\u2019s currently only available in China and it\u2019s unclear when or if it will receive a global release at all. One of our contributors went hands-on with the Mate XT and was impressed, so I\u2019d love to see Samsung give it a go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the leaked patent designs, this tri-fold device has a three-panel structure, with one of the three sections noticeably thicker than the others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This thicker panel would house the crucial components like the camera, battery, and processing hardware, balancing functionality with portability. When folded, it maintains a sleek form, almost mirroring a regular phone, but when fully extended, offers the space and versatility of a tablet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Samsung\u2019s expertise in foldable screens gives them a leg up in making this a more global reality, but it\u2019s not without challenges. The biggest hurdle appears to be economic viability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Producing a device this complex while keeping the price reasonable is no small feat. But if Samsung can crack the code, this tri-fold phone could be the game-changer the company needs to win new customers and secure a lead in the foldable market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you thought Samsung\u2019s tri-fold idea was ambitious, the concept for a rollable Galaxy phone is on another level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike traditional folding phones that open horizontally, this rollable phone would expand vertically. Think of a compact, almost square device (similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 6<\/a>) that extends upwards into a traditional phone shape when you need more screen space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For people who crave compact devices but don\u2019t want to sacrifice screen real estate, this could be the ideal solution. Rollable screens allow for a flexible expansion mechanism, which means we could have phones that fit neatly in a pocket yet expand for a full viewing experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve never used a clamshell phone for more than two weeks, but as a long-time iPhone 13 mini<\/a> user, and a fan of smaller phones, this is certainly something that makes me excited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, patents don\u2019t always lead to actual products. So we don\u2019t know if Samsung will ever release this type of device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What we do know for sure, however, is that next year\u2019s Samsung flagship series will be called the Galaxy S25 series, and we\u2019ll also see Galaxy XR headsets in 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
