When the user folds the phone vertically, the screen is displayed on the outside, which is convenient for the user to perform one-handed operation; and when the user folds the device horizontally, the screen is located inside, which makes the device not touch the screen when carrying.

At the same time, when the device is fully deployed, users can get a sizable front screen that provides a convenient operating experience. Thanks to the multi-hinged design, the device no longer needs to be equipped with a separate external secondary screen, and its vertical folding will have a dual front and rear screen device.

The overall size of the multi-folding phone currently under development is slightly larger than the Samsung GalaxyZFold3, the source said. And Samsung is also considering designing a new system support for this device that can fold in many ways, which will benefit the actual user experience.

On this basis, this multi-folding device will bring multiple user modes. Users can partition up and down as they would on a laptop, which is also supported by some folding screen devices currently on sale.
