Samsung Galaxy X: Samsung’s foldable phone?

We wrote an article back in January about Samsung’s foldable phone rumors. The rumors indicated that Samsung and LG are in a new race to release the world’s first foldable smartphone. Some sources even confirmed that Galaxy X will be the name for Samsung’s phone. But back then, no one outside Samsung really knew if the phone ever existed. Today, a report has showed up confirming about this device. Apparently, Samsung has finally trademarked the name Galaxy X.

This trademark filing have just confirmed about this foldable phone. On top of that, Samsung also patented designs for the device before. But, it is important to remember that the name Galaxy X could mean anything. The trademark file is very general and does not mention a folding smartphone. However, many people believe that it will be the foldable Galaxy X1 and Galaxy X1+ that have been reported earlier bearing the model numbers SM-X9000 and SM-X9050.

Keep in mind that even if this is real, the phone will not be available this year. It will be put up for trial production at the end of 2017, with mass production follows in Q2 2018. So prepare to wait another year before you can finally see it.
