Samsung Galaxy X: Will Samsung drop the Galaxy S10 name?

We are getting closer to the MWC 2018 event and the launch of Samsung Galaxy S9 duo flagship. Thus, the next-gen Samsung flagship information has already appeared online. Based on the latest updates, the 10th phone of Samsung Galaxy S series should be Samsung Galaxy S10, obviously. However, it seems that Samsung might get a notable celebration for the next smartphone when naming it as “Samsung Galaxy X” instead of “Galaxy S10”.

According to our sources, if Samsung confirms the name, it might drop a lot of branding mindshare from the previous Samsung Galaxy S-line. However, Samsung seems to push the problem to the next year with the dubbed Galaxy X series. As far as it concerns, we get X = 10, or Samsung Galaxy SX would be the fresh start for the new series. After then, the following flagships could go under “Samsung Galaxy SXI” or “Samsung Galaxy X2”.

It was in last September when Samsung’s mobile boss DJ Koh said to launch a foldable smartphone sometime in 2018. Sadly, there’s been a delay and Koh revealed that the launch timeframe falls around 2019. Since the company never officially confirmed the naming, the foldable phone is likely to be Samsung Galaxy X. Also, the company starts to introduce foldable display in this March and manufacture panels in September.

What else to expect next year from Samsung?

Since mass production of the final product should start in November. Meanwhile, Samsung Galaxy SX release date should fall around December of 2018 or January 2019. There is no official information about Samsung Galaxy XS price, but it might start at least $656 ~ Rs. 41,999. For now, let’s focus on Samsung Galaxy S9 flagships launch at MWC 2018 before we receive more information of Samsung Galaxy SX. What do you think about the new strategy of Samsung branding name?
