If you take a quick look at the Samsung patent image, the dual-screen laptop being worked on has a number of similarities with the Asus ZenBook Fold laptop model.

In other words, we can expect that Samsung will also offer similar functionality with this patented device. Though there is one major difference between the ZenBook Fold and Samsung’s patented new device.
The difference this dual-screen laptop Samsung seems to offer keyboard physical on half the screen. This keyboard uses less space in one corner of the screen.
This means that even though it has a fully folded screen, this laptop doesn’t have a complete screen surface. So the part that accommodates keyboard can serve as a secondary display.
