The smartphone race among the industry’s most prominent companies is set to get even more intense, as Samsung seems set on releasing its foldable Galaxy X smartphone sooner than expected.
In a recent announcement, the South Korean tech giant’s president of mobile Koh Dong-jin stated that a “folding phone” is definitely in the works.
The code number of the Galaxy X was even leaked a few weeks ago, with the model number SM-G888N0 emerging from the Korean National Radio Research Agency (NRRA). Such a model number has not been assigned to a smartphone in Samsung’s lineup, and thus, might correspond to the foldable device.
Apart from this, the highly anticipated device has also reportedly passed its Bluetooth and radio certification, which all but points to a release date within the near future, according to international technology media reports.
