We have been hearing about reports for months, dating back to April in regards to Samsung and an upcoming foldable flurry that will make use of Samsung’s displays, with all of these devices expected to hit the market in late 2021. Now, details via a Korean news outlet seem to cement these claims.

The Elec which is based out of Korea has reported that Samsung will soon start the production of foldable OLED panels for the likes of Google, Vivo, and Xiaomi in the month of October. The report adds that all of these three companies are planning to launch their foldable phones in Q4 of 2021.

This report further reiterated earlier reports that hinted the Google foldable to include a 7.6-inch in-folding display, with no word on an external display as of now. In contrast, the Vivo foldable is tipped to arrive with an 8-inch “3.4:3” main screen coupled with a 6.5-inch outer panel.

What Does the Report Hint At?

There seems to be a lack of information and details in relation to Xiaomi’s next foldable, with The Elec only stating that Samsung is making the main screen and CSOT is working on the “accessory” screen.
