At the beginning of this year, the realme announced a pause in the development of foldable cell phones, but it appears that the company may have changed its decision. A patent, found on the Chinese National Intellectual Property Administration website, revealed sketches of a foldable device with a book-shaped design, similar to China’s Galaxy Z Fold line. Samsung.
Realme’s first foldable
The patent, shared by 91mobileshas a description that mentions a magnetic hinge mechanism to easily fold and unfold the device.
The documents also describe a heat dissipation system, which transfers heat from one side to the other depending on temperature differences between the two halves.
Although the patent describes what the device would look like, this does not mean that the realme is, in fact, working on a foldable with this design. Therefore, we will have to wait to find out the manufacturer’s plans.
Why there isn’t a realme foldable phone yet
Madhav Sheth, former head of realme Indiacommented that the company had intended to launch a foldable smartphone, but these plans were postponed.
At a conference in Thailand, Francis Wong, head of marketing at realmesaid the manufacturer conducted “extensive testing and development on foldable technology,” but that the big concern was ensuring the mechanism withstands daily wear and tear.
This suggests that the company should only launch a foldable device when it finds a safe and reliable solution, something that could take some time.
