Samsung displays the world's first stretchable display. The announcement will take place during the event SID 2017, which will be held in Los Angeles from 23 to 25 May, writes Android Authority. Unlike previous developments of Samsung, the new screen bends in both directions. In addition, the 9.1-inch AMOLED-panel can be stretched to 12 millimeters without the risk of damage. "The current bendable OLED-displays are able to bend only in one direction. Our stretchable screen can be deformed - fold, fold and fold - on both sides, from above and from below, "- said the representative of Samsung Display. In March 2017, Samsung registered in South Korea the trademark Galaxy X. According to rumors, under this name plans to produce the first smartphone with a folding or folding display.

According to the documents, the hinge mechanism will pass through the center of the case, and the mechanism design resembles the Microsoft Surface Book. It was expected that the Galaxy X presentation will take place at the end of 2016. However, due to problems with the Galaxy Note 7 model, the announcement of a flexible smartphone was postponed to the end of 2017. To assess the reaction of the market, the smartphone will be released in a small circulation of 100 thousand pieces.
