Apparently a new info states that Samsung's mission of producing a foldable phone is being dubbed as a Project Valley. The Pilot Project of the Korean company aims to conceptualize a phone that can come with a foldable display, thereby enabling users to carry large screen mobile devices in their pocket with ease.

The report further claims that Samsung is using both the Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 and the Snapdragon 810 SoC for their foldable phone. The company might even come up with two variants of their revolutionary device. However the RAM inside is constant at 3GB.

No information is available about the display as of now. But considering the fact that there are no bendable LCDs around, Samsung is expected to use an OLED panel. Size is panel is also not know.
