Today is the start of the Samsung Developer Conference 2018, and to hype the event, Samsung revealed a bit about its upcoming smartphone with a foldable display.

Samsung is calling this hardware the "Infinity Flex Display," and it will come as part of the company's first foldable smartphone. As you would expect from Samsung, the display is still OLED.
