Let’s start with the new Galaxy Z phones
In 2022, Samsung’s going to be releasing the successor to its Galaxy Z Fold 3, and Z Flip 3. According to the source, we’re not going to be seeing much change when it comes to design. We will get the usual upgrades from one generation to another. We don’t expect Samsung to flip the script next year, but there are some confirmed improvements coming. Most improvements will center around the hinge. These should add more water and dust resistance. Along with that, Samsung looks to be trying to reduce the folding radius. This means that when the phones are folded, there will be a smaller gap where the glass actually bends. This will create a more complete fold. That’s important when it comes to keeping dust and lint from getting through. The overall thickness and weight of the phones will also be reduced, resulting in a smaller footprint. This means that Samsung is taking even more steps to refine its foldable technology so that other companies cannot eat into its lead.
Samsung will launch different types of foldable devices next year
Thus far, the only foldables we’ve seen have been phones, but Samsung is looking to change that next year. Year. According to the source, Samsung will be announcing a foldable tablet next year. The Galaxy Z Fold is basically a tablet that folds down to a phone. A folding tablet will most likely do one of two things. It may either be a full-sized tablet that folds into a smaller footprint for portability and protection, or a smaller tablet that folds out to a larger tablet. Either form factor will make sense and will have its ups and downs. This is definitely a move to optimize productivity and, hopefully, breathe new life into the Android tablet space. However, this is all speculation, so take it with a grain of salt.
Samsung is also making a folding laptop
It seems that Samsung wants to fold everything! The source also claims that Samsung is working on a foldable laptop for next year. This design will most likely be a singular piece of glass that will fold in hamburger style. The top half will be the screen, and the bottom half will be the keyboard. Right now, it’s hard to say whether these devices will actually make it to the market. If this is true, the next year could very well be the most exciting year for foldables.
