War Samsung and Apple will continue, not about patents. Yup, to be able to continue to compete with Apple, Samsung unsparing in innovating. This is illustrated by the Samsung’s efforts in developing a flexible smartphone devices, in real terms. Samsung Galaxy Skin, so they called it. What are the advantages of a smartphone that will be launched this in 2012?
Rumors are circulating around the first time last June, where Samsung shows a prototype display that can be folded. Yes, it is said screen is made of two AMOLED panels, the protective glass cover, the module case and silicone rubber. With all this material Galaxy Skin will be a phone that can be folded, bent and formed various kinds, such as a bracelet, length, and others.
International Business Times claimed that this concept will be realized and launched in 2012. A statement which is quite ambitious indeed, but apparently it’s not just a figment. Rumor has been confirmed. This course will make the iPhone 5 a smartphone class or even the iPhone 6 (if any) the future looks outdated.
Current information states that Galaxy Skin will not use glass, but was replaced by a material called polyimide substrate. This makes the phone is soft enough to bend without damaging the quality of the image, and remains impervious to hammer blows. Wow..!
Apparently Galaxy Skin, will as thick and as wide Galaxy S2, although the screen will have a length twice that if it is not being folded. In addition, Galaxy reportedly Skin will have a size of 221mm x 67mm x 8mm. For display, the Samsung Galaxy Skin will be supported by 4-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 800×400 MP.
Flexible smartphone is also equipped with an 8MP camera on the back side and front (VGA). Galaxy Skin will be supported with 1.2 GHz processor and 1 GB of RAM, and Bluetooth 3.0 connectivity and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n. As for the operating system, some believe that the Galaxy will run Android Skin Ice Cream Sandwich, but some speculate Skin will use the new Android OS Flexy. How, interested in having this flexible smartphone next year?
