Sony’s foldable phone may already be in the works
Xperia F for Foldable
Foldable smartphones have had a rough start this year. Samsung’s entry couldn’t get past the starting line, while Huawei’s situation put its foldable in jeopardy. Yet, despite the slow beginning, another player is getting its hand ready for the new smartphone category.
According to a report, Sony has an Xperia F — which would naturally stand for Foldable — in the works. It’s said to use Samsung’s flexible OLED panel as its screen and come with 5G connectivity.
Interestingly, it might own a 21:9 aspect ratio (like on Sony’s newly launched Xperia line) which means the Xperia F could fold vertically — similar to the rumored Moto folding phone.
This comes as a breath of fresh air for the company after it was revealed that Sony is pulling its smartphones out of multiple markets. While this may affect the Xperia F’s availability, it’s good to know that the brand is sticking to its promises.
Don’t get too excited, however, because the Xperia F has its potential launch happening next year. Considering the difficulties manufacturers have been facing so far, it would be in Sony’s best interest to take its time.
