According to a new report, competition in the foldable space has Samsung in a panic, and the company is revving up plans to launch a rollable smartphone as soon as next year.

Samsung in a panic?? Every foldable screen is manufactured by Samsung afaik.

IIRC display and chip manufacturing are basically treated like separate businesses from the phones as a product. And all the other companies foldables are better than Samsung's (imo at least) because they haven't innovated or improved in several generations.

Not disagreeing, but the other foldables claiming no crease are bs from what I've seen.
Has anyone noticeably innovated? Genuinely curious

Idk about no crease but Samsung's appear to be the most noticeable from what I've actually seen. I think other manufacturers have improved on this over time but I haven't seen anything newer than my Pixel Fold in person.
