Samsung files patent designs for foldable smartphone with sliding keyboard: Report

Some patent designs filed by Samsung have revealed that the South Korean tech firm is planning to incorporate more folds and a sliding keyboard in their future models. Although the folding system resembles the recently launched Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, the dual-folding design might not be restricted to a smartphone device. The patent designs are reflective to say that the keyboard is going to come with touch keys, unlike the old school Blackberry sliding keyboard setup that came with hard tap keys. Introduced in September this year, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 is the third foldable smartphone by the company after Galaxy Fold and Galaxy Z Flip.
