Samsung for a long time now has been rumoured to be working on a foldable smartphone, which is being called as the Samsung Galaxy X. Now, we have confirmation regarding this smartphone as the company has gotten in approved in South Korea with the model number SM-G888N0. This alleged smartphone appeared in a filing from the Korean National Radio Research Agency (NRRA), according to LetsGoDigital. As per the listing, the device is being called a radio equipment for global LTE communication, however, the same device was being called a smartphone when it got spotted at the Wi-Fi Alliance.
People have been waiting for a long time to get their hands on the bendable smartphone since it was first showcased by the company back in 2013. It seems as if now, soon we will be able to buy this new smartphone directly from the stores. While currently, no specific details regarding the smartphone have come up, so we would recommend you to not get your hopes up for seeing this device in 2017. However, we do recall that Samsung’s mobile chief, Koh Dong-jin, recently said that the company is working on a bendable screen Galaxy Note smartphone, which it will be launching in 2018.
Koh also said that the company is facing problems with the display, and if those can't be fixed in time, they will have to push back the launch of this new smartphone. As per the reports and rumours, we know that the alleged Galaxy X smartphone will feature a foldable display which will help transform it into a smartphone from a tablet or vice-versa.

We know that Apple is having difficulties in manufacturing the full-screen display for the iPhone X, which makes us think that Samsung will be facing a lot more trouble in manufacturing than them. Therefore the new bendable display smartphone might be available in extremely low quantities, and to get your hands on it you might have to wait a long time.
