Samsung introduced the Flex Gaming portable console that folds in half

At Mobile World Congress 2025, Samsung Display introduced a new portable Flex Gaming console that can be folded in half.

Samsung is one of the leading brands in the foldable display industry, and the Flex Gaming is a new direction for the company. According to Android Headlines, citing Samsung Display, the device offers a larger display for gaming, and when it needs to be stored, it folds up to become more compact.

The Flex Gaming features a 7.2-inch screen when unfolded, making it similar in size to other handheld consoles. It's important to note that this is just a concept and is not available for purchase. Samsung confirmed that the Flex Gaming was created to demonstrate the capabilities of foldable displays.

One innovation is the holes for the joysticks, which allow them to fold together with the device. This solution helps to avoid problems with the placement of the joysticks when folding. Although Flex Gaming runs on a mobile OS, probably Android, its complexity in development could be an obstacle to mass production.

This concept demonstrates the capabilities of complex displays and could become the basis for future developments in the field of portable gaming devices.
