If you are a regular social media user, you probably have come up across your friends and family (and perhaps random strangers as well) posting a film of themselves from ten years ago and a picture of them here in 2019 (and if you've washed it also, we promise we won't judge). The '10 Year Claiming' meme has spread like wildfire on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, and Samsung Netherlands has taken the chance to jump on the bandwagon to tease its foldable smartphone.

It'southward pure coincidence that the Galaxy S flagship line has entered its 10th year correct when the #10YearChallenge meme has taken off, but Samsung is clearly more than interested in the foldable phone, which the company is hoping will help it turnaround its ailing smartphone business. And a foldable smartphone is the best example of how the Korean giant's smartphone design will evolve from those apartment rectangular slabs with the big bezels from 2009 to a rectangular slab that tin can switch between a tablet and a phone to offer the all-time of both worlds.

Sadly, the latest teaser from the visitor is like all other teasers when it comes to revealing the actual design of the Galaxy Fold (expected to exist the retail name for the foldable device), in that it doesn't really reveal anything. Samsung chose to proceed the actual device a secret by slapping a example effectually it and only offering us a glimpse of the folding brandish in November last yr, although we may finally get to see the complete product at the Galaxy S10 launch on February 20.
