Which reports the South Korean newspaper Korea Herald. Samsung has not yet commented.
Samsung has been making smartphones for some time foldable screens, such as the Galaxy Fold and the Galaxy Z Flip. Those screens fold over around a hinge. The new technology involves a screen, much of which is bendable.
What the retractable screen will look like is not yet clear. It may be a screen that you pull out of a housing.
Samsung has already applied for several patents for similar technology for retractable screens. Those patents include a screen that appears when you pull it out of a small rectangular housing. Samsung could use this technique for portable TVs as well as for mobile devices.
