Samsung patents folding, sliding phone design

Seoul: South Korean tech giant Samsung is reportedly working on a phone with both foldable and rollable design.

Titled "electronic device capable of folding and sliding operations", the patent describes a device that seemingly goes out of its way to bend a foldable display in every possible way, GSMArena reported.

The handset does not not only folds on one side but also capable of sliding out, probably when triggering specific kinds of actions, giving a wider screen real-estate for content consumption, gaming and much more.
