One other week, one other contradictory rumor relating to the demise or resurrection of the legendary Samsung Fan Version line. This time round, it is unhealthy information – apparently the Galaxy S23 FE is not occurring in spite of everything.
Which may be unhappy and all that, however then again, the identical supply brings us an extremely intriguing flip facet to this rumor. The Korean firm is claimed to be engaged on a “Tri-Fold” system, and this “may lastly ship this yr”. That is the prototypical “huge if true” information, since for the previous few years we have mainly had single-hinge foldables.
This guarantees to be a dual-hinge, three-part foldable, akin to a few ideas showcased by Samsung Show at CES again in January. There are not any extra particulars about this one proper now, nevertheless it’s been some time since a wholly new kind issue joined the cell world, so we’re excited. There’s additionally the truth that this system nonetheless entails folding, and that is mainly a solved challenge at this level.
So whereas the shape issue itself is likely to be new, the truth that it is an growth (each actually and figuratively) of an already present one means there may be right here the potential for it to forego all the typical points that come up when one thing utterly new involves the marketplace for the primary time – it is simply an additional hinge and a a extra advanced display screen for use on this case. New, sure, by no means carried out earlier than, additionally sure, however not utterly out of left discipline.
