Unveiling the Future of Smartphones: Samsung’s Revolutionary 2026 Form Factor Breakthrough

Breaking News: Get Ready for the Future of Smartphones!

In a world where smartphones are constantly evolving, imagine a device that’s not only more powerful but also more flexible. According to a tweet by Ross Young, founder and CEO of Display Supply Side Consultants (DSCC), Samsung is working on a tri-fold handset that will change the game. Introducing the "Flex G" – a new form factor that will revolutionize the way we interact with our devices.

What is the Flex G?

Imagine a Galaxy Z Fold with an extra side. The Flex G display allows the two outer sides to fold inward, providing protection for the internal 10-inch tablet-sized screen when the device is closed. But don’t expect to see this innovative technology in stores anytime soon – Samsung’s shipments are expected to start in the fourth quarter of this year, with a release date in 2026.
