Samsung Display introduced its latest innovation at MWC 2025—the “Flexible Briefcase”, a foldable-screen laptop concept that doubles as a briefcase. This device features an 18.1-inch QD-OLED display with QHD+ resolution (2,000 x 2,664 pixels) and a pixel density of 184 PPI, offering a large, vibrant screen in a compact, foldable form factor.
The Flexible Briefcase stands out with its unconventional design, featuring two handles that meet in the middle when closed, transforming the laptop into a portable briefcase. This design adds to its aesthetic appeal but also integrates power and volume buttons, making it a blend of functionality and style.
When unfolded the device boasts an 18.1-inch QD-OLED display, offering sharp visuals and deep contrast levels. While its 184 PPI pixel density is slightly lower than the 212 PPI of the Galaxy Book4 Ultra, the large screen size and foldable mechanism make it unique, particularly for content creators and professionals.
Samsung has been exploring foldable-screen laptop concepts for years. The company patented a similar design in 2022, where the laptop folded twice, and previously introduced the Flex Note concept, which shares similarities with the Flexible Briefcase. While still a prototype, this concept highlights Samsung’s commitment to advancing foldable technology.
Other brands, such as Lenovo, have also showcased innovative laptop designs, including a solar-powered concept capable of providing one hour of video playback after 20 minutes of direct sunlight charging. However, like the Flexible Briefcase, these remain experimental.
While there is no official word on commercial availability, the Flexible Briefcase concept looks promising. If Samsung decides to bring it to market, it could redefine portable computing with its versatile foldable design.
