Samsung may launch foldable touchscreen smartphone


In March, a Samsung Display official had said that smartphones with foldable touchscreens would be commercially possible in 2016. The company seems to have been taking the project forward since then. A new report by a blogger on Chinese social network Weibo has dished out a few details related to Samsung's upcoming foldable touchscreen smartphone.
According to the report, the smartphone is being developed under the name Project Valley or Project V and will be ready for production by January next year. This timeline suggests that the South Korean giant may unveil the world's first foldable touchscreen smartphone at Mobile World Congress in March or possibly a few weeks before the tech event, as it did with Galaxy Note 5 and S6 edge+ in August.
On the hardware part, it is likely that the display will be flexible OLED, as no manufacturer has been able to achieve foldable LED displays yet. The report also says that Samsung is testing the phone with two chipsets: Snapdragon 820 and Snapdragon 620. It is not yet clear whether this phone will be released in just one variant or two.
if samsung unveils fold able display then it  is going to set a benchmark in mobile technology
specifically in display segment.
