First flexible samsung phones to arrive in 2017

The first flexible Samsung phones were introduced about 3 years ago and at that time it seemed a technology far removed from the consumer, everything was rather a prototype of the future of mobile telephony. It seems that the first flexible phones from Samsung for the final consumer are going to arrive sooner rather than later, everything points to the year 2017 for its debut.

The rumor takes on a lot of weight coming from a South Korean source, which has ensured that Samsung began mass-producing the first flexible screens later this year to begin marketing them during 2017. Let's remember that at first it was said that the first Flexible phones were going to start selling in early 2016, this had been assured in late 2014, a date that was finally not met. Since the first time it was presented in 2013, Samsung has not missed an opportunity to show these flexible phones at every major event that has taken place around the globe, it seems that the moment of truth is getting closer and these devices will leave from being simple samples of technology events.

Keep in mind that these flexible phones have nothing to do with other mobile phones that already exist on the market such as the Galaxy Round or the LG Flex that have curved screens but are not flexible.

Samsung would already be planning two models of flexible phones, one with a 5-inch screen and another with a 7-inch screen, the latter would already belong to the 'Phablet' category and both would have configurations worthy of a high-end smartphone. What real utility can a flexible phone have today? We'll see.
