The upcoming iPhone 8 launch is already seeing tech-nerds and Apple fiends assemble from all corners of the world, but on Tuesday Samsung teased some pretty juicy news.
Falling under the Samsung Galaxy Note umbrella, the tech company plans to release a foldable smartphone in 2018.
Koh Dong-jin, president of mobile business at Samsung Electronic, told Associated Press reporters, "as the head of the business, I can say our current goal is next year. When we can overcome some problems, for sure, we will launch the product."
He didn't elaborate on what these problems are but let's hope they solve them pretty damn fast. Although - to be fair - mass-producing a phone with a thin body and top-tech features probably does take some time. Samsung first demonstrated that it was working on a phone with flexible display back in 2013, even releasing a video of the prototype called Youm.
Whatever the case, 2018 is already shaping up to be a great year.
