Samsung has filed a patent application for a foldable portable gaming console. Unlike other similar devices, Samsung's console will feature a foldable screen.
Here's What We Know
The patent sketches reveal that the device has two analogue joysticks, arranged similarly to Nintendo JoyCons, as well as crosses on the inner and outer sides. The inner crosses are recessed, allowing the console to be folded without interfering with the joysticks. The device also features speakers, shoulder buttons, and an SD card slot.

The console is expected to be Android-based and support cloud gaming via the Gaming Hub service, which allows you to play demanding games without having to download them. However, as with any patents, there is no guarantee that the device will be released to the market.
