Samsung revealed its roadmap for its future products at the Analyst Day 2013 earlier this year. The roamap revealed that Samsung would launch bendable and foldable displays in future after the launch of Galaxy Round with a curved display. Now Bloomberg reports that new Galaxy smartphone coming next year with a display that wraps around the edges. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) filing that Samsung filed earlier this week shows a device that wraps around frontward and provides extra display space on its sides.
The patent image shows side displays with icons for music player, ebooks and more serving these functions and the front-most display used for primary activity.
The phone will reportedly be using an upgraded version of Youm display technology from Samsung. This would let each side of the display operate independently. These details are yet to be confirmed by Samsung. The new display might be used on the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S or Note series. We might also see this in a complete new series.
Samsung Galaxy smartphone with three-sided wraparound display is expected to release second half of 2014.
