Wouldnt it be great if there were a phone with the powers of a tablet that could be folded up and fit into the hand?Now something like a tablet-shaped but foldable phone is about to become available. In February, South Korean electronics company Samsung and Chinas Huawei both showed foldable phones, The Galaxy Fold and Huawei Mate X respectively. Mobile phone use has entered the foldable future, The Verge noted. The technology could change our lives in unusual ways. These devices, due to their foldable screens, give us the larger screens we want. At the same time, they still fit easily into the pocket. As USA Today noted, theyre the combination of a small tablet and smartphone, all in a single device.The technology could change other devices too. For example, we could make TVs that stick to walls like posters, or fold up easily to hide away in drawers. In crowded modern cities, they will help us to make full use of available space.In a keynote speech, Samsungs senior vice president of mobile product marketing, Justin Denison, called the foldable screen the foundation for the smartphone of tomorrow. Its a piece of white paper for us to paint something beautiful on together, he said.So is there nothing to stand in the way of the foldable future?According to technology news website Android Authority, the necessary displays* were difficult to produce.
