Recall that the patent was filed back in 2017, when there was nothing known about the Samsung Fold. Then it was reported that the manufacturer Sharp is preparing to release a phone for fans of mobile games, and the device will bend in only one place. Apparently, in preparation for production, the company decided to abandon the clamshells of the last century.
How will the Sharp gaming smartphone be different?
It is known that the new gadget can be used in a completely unfolded form, as well as in a slightly bent form. Apparently, Sharp decided to bring experience in the production of elongated, curved TVs, which have gained quite wide popularity. Perhaps gaming phones will also get their target audience. In the rendered photos, it can be seen that the screens will receive buttons for easy game control. There are also hardware keys on the case. However, based on the pictures, it is difficult to understand whether the cameras will be installed.
