Bloomberg reported June 6 that, according to unnamed sources, Samsung is working on one phone with a 5-inch screen that can unfold into an 8-inch screen, taking it essentially from a smartphone to a tablet, and another that “folds in half like a cosmetic compact”.

Of course, iPhone 7 is not all about getting rid of some of its significant features; the forthcoming device will also be featuring game-changing new enhancements.
Apple is expected to unveil its next-generation iPhones in September, at a dedicated special event. With Nikkei reveal we are now looking at a curved iPhone for 2017.
WHILE the upcoming iPhone 7 is expected to have some great improvements, it won’t be the overhaul people are expecting.
The third iPhone model will apparently be released alongside the regular 4.7 and 5.5-inch iPhones with LCD displays.
The well-connected KGI Securities analyst Ming Chi-Kuo, for instance, argued for a 5.8-inch OLED iPhone, noting that the device might launch in 2017. Sources speaking to the Nikkei Asian Review indicate that Apple will release three phones next year, which was also rumored this year.
But it will not be the first time we have heard that an iPhone with a curved display will make its way to us in 2017.
Based on past history, you can bet hardcore Apple customers will be willing to shell out big bucks to show off the ultimate new iPhone. Apple might order from Foxconn because they are developing glass casing and OLED panels since past year they are hoping to get orders from one of the world’s biggest client this 2017.
With Samsung and other manufacturers out of Asia competing effectively, one would like to know why Apple made a decision to get rid of the iPhone 7 Pro.
Noted tipster Evan Blass previously tweeted that pre-orders for the new devices will go live on September 9, meaning that the official launch will likely take place just a few days earlier, with September 7 being a strong possibility. Consequently, every manufacturer is in the race to pack in the best available camera on their device, including Apple. That includes the removal of the 3.5 mm jack for a slimmer design and the iteration of the physical home button.

This technology will reportedly be similar to the one equipped in the newest MacBooks, favoring a trackpad-like feeling in the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.
