Samsung Tipped to Be Working on Vertically Expandable Phone With Sliding Display

Samsung is reportedly developing a smartphone with a display that slides vertically to change its aspect ratio. A tipster claims the screen will switch between 16:9 and 21:9 formats, although these details have not been confirmed. A recently published patent also shows a design with two sliding sections connected by a flexible display. The mechanism could affect battery capacity and internal space. Samsung is separately expected to launch its first rollable smartphone, possibly called the Galaxy Z Roll, in 2028.
