Naver is reporting from sources that Samsung’s next foldable phablet will include a new hinge. It’s a design Samsung patented in 2016 \u2014 our sister site Pocketnow covered it at the time \u2014 but didn’t actually use it until now, perhaps because something was not allowing for its correct implementation.
