There’s a rumor that Oppo and Vivo might be thinking about leaving the foldable smartphone market. This probably includes OnePlus too, since it’s closely linked to Oppo. You can see this connection in how the OnePlus Open is the international version of Oppo’s Find N3.
The main reason for this big change seems to be that these brands didn’t sell as many foldable phones last year. So, they might leave the foldable phone business altogether, leaving the big players like Samsung and Huawei to take the lead.
We don’t know exactly when or how Oppo, Vivo, and maybe OnePlus will leave the foldable phone market. But the fact that they might leave is a big deal in smartphones, where things are always changing.
Meanwhile, Huawei, another big name in China’s smartphone scene, is gearing up to launch a 10-inch smartphone that folds twice. Think of it like a device shaped like a letter Z or one with two hinges. If this happens, it might resemble TCL’s tri-folding device they showed off a few years back.
People are guessing that Huawei double folding will be released before June ends, which adds to the excitement about what Huawei will do next, but it’s just rumors.
Yes, people don’t prefer folding phones much now because they start showing signs of folding with time. If this problem is solved along with time, people might turn towards folding phones.
Meanwhile, reports say that Samsung has made a big step forward in its work on rollable displays. They’ve finished making one to meet the increasing demands of the market. Samsung might also think about making a tri-fold phone, similar to what Huawei is rumored to be doing.
But we won’t know if this is true until it’s confirmed. Right now, these are all just guesses and rumors.
