TCL’s foldable, rollable smartphone captured, and Samsung is racing to bring rollable display devices too
At DTC 2021 event in China, TCL has just unveiled the amazing rollable display concept. There is also a video on this new technology called Fold’n Roll Concept. This video comes on Twitter courtesy of FoldUniverse. The device seems to be in the early stages of development, so it may be far away to go into the mainstream. Although, it is a unique concept and highlights the convenience of modern screens.
The smartphone folds and expands like a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold. In this case, the display stretches horizontally from the left side, effectively turning into a tablet. The UI is not optimized for the form factor, which is not particularly a deal-breaker, taking into account the fact that it is a prototype.

This TCL prototype folds outwards, meaning it does not require an additional screen. In contrast, the Samsung Galaxy Z Folds inwards so another screen is required on the front. This TCL prototype device offers a 6.87-inch screen in its standard stance but expands to 8.55-inches when unfolded. The horizontal rolling screen transforms it into a 10-inch screen that delivers the full tablet experience.
TCL subsidiary CSOT has unveiled two new rolling display prototypes at CES 2021. Both are OLED panels, but one of them fits the description of the rollable display we are discussing now. Separately, TCL has also demonstrated a vertically rolling disc, so it is clear that the company has worked hard in this direction.
It should be noted that TCL is not the only company operating on a rollable display device. A few months ago, Huawei’s former brand HONOR patented a rollable smartphone with a “wraparound display”, indicating its interest in the region. Apart from this, Oppo is taking significant steps towards launching a rollable display phone.
Samsung is also expected to compete to bring the rollable display device to market. However, the Korean manufacturer’s immediate vision is to expand its foldable display product for the next generation of Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip smartphones.

Samsung’s premium wireless earbuds making a comeback this year. Last year, the company didn’t launch premium earbuds, but brought the first pair of FE-branded Galaxy Buds. Samsung is expected to launch Galaxy Buds 3 Pro in the next Unpacked, which features a 500mAh battery case.
The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro case packs a 500mAh battery, first spotted by 91mobiles. The Buds 2 Pro also brings a charging case with a 500mAh battery. Apart from TUV certification, the product has also surfaced on India’s BIS certification site, confirming its imminent debut.
In particular, the upcoming Galaxy earbuds are listed with the model number EB-BR630ABY on TUV and BIS. Each earbud of the Galaxy Buds 2 features a 58mAh battery and Samsung might ship the Buds 3, at least, with the same battery capacity.
April is about to end and the next Unpacked will likely be held in mid-July this year. Samsung’s Buds 3 Pro may be unveiled alongside new foldables and wearables. In addition, the company may also release its first smart ring, the Galaxy Ring.

Samsung launched a new 50W charging adapter (EP-T5020) with dual ports. The product is available in select European countries and we hope the company will soon bring it to more markets. As there’s no phone capable of charging over 45W speed, the 50W adapter is still worth buying.
The New Samsung 50W adapter brings dual ports, allowing users to charge two Galaxy phones at 25W simultaneously. When both ports are used, the adapter will distribute 25W each, making it easier to get two Galaxy devices charged at the same time.
To get 50W speed (USD PD PPS protocol), you need to use the first port, usable to charge Galaxy Book laptops. For additional convenience, the secondary port is capped at 25W charging speed. This means you are not required to charge two devices to get 25W output.
Galaxy S24 Ultra, S24 Plus, S23 Ultra, S23 Plus, and M55 5G are some Samsung devices that support 45W fast charging. Most Galaxy phones and tablets have 25W charging support, which is not much less than Samsung’s 45W brick.
While the availability is limited, the 50W brick can be owned for €69.90. Meanwhile, Samsung also sells 65W triple-port EP-T6530, which you can buy for Galaxy Book laptops. Future Galaxy flagships should bring even more faster charging tech, it’s a long-standing demand.
