JAPAN – Folding screen smartphones are becoming increasingly popular day by day. Not only South Korean and Chinese manufacturers, Japanese smartphone companies are also joining in on this trend. One of them is Sony, which will enter the foldable cellphone market with the Xperia F product.
According to Gizmochina, Sony has prepared a folding screen device with a very luxurious and futuristic design.
Although it is not yet clear what form it will take, it is predicted that the device will be able to attract users who want to experience its unique features thanks to its affordable price.
It is stated that the Xperia F will feature a 7-inch 4K screen with an aspect ratio of 21:9. But keep in mind that this is all still just a leak because Sony itself has not confirmed it.
For your information, in the short term, folding screen smartphones are predicted to grow. However, whether this growth will continue as users plan to upgrade is still uncertain.
The foldable screen smartphone segment may face difficulties in maintaining its market share in the coming years, especially due to the smartphone replacement cycle which is usually 3 to 4 years.
Projections suggest that the adoption rate of foldable devices may decline in this timeframe, based on consumer behavior speculation.
There are concerns that more than 70% of foldable smartphone users will switch to regular smartphones. Let's just wait and see what direction the trend will take in the future.
