The company launched its first smartphone six years ago. Samsung has not given any information about the launch of the new type of smartphone. Earlier the company had showcased a hybrid device that can fold and slide simultaneously.

The Elec’s Report It has been reported that Samsung is making a smartphone with a rollable screen. Its display will be up to 12.4 inches. This display size is as big as some Android tablets.
