Google vice president of engineering Dave Burke announced
on Wednesday during Google’s Android
Developers’ Summit event that the company has been working
with Samsung on a foldable smartphone, according to
Variety.

Essentially, Google officially confirmed Samsung’s
long-awaited foldable smartphone before Samsung could announce
it, or at least the news that Samsung is unveiling it on
Wednesday. 

Google’s event was partly to reveal that the company has
developed Android to support foldable smartphone designs.

Samsung’s and Google’s events are happening at the same
time, but Samsung is seemingly saving the foldable smartphone
announcement for later in its keynote. 

Samsung’s foldable smartphone isn’t a secret.
Rumors and confirmations about the device have been released
over the years. Samsung also said we should expect details on the
device during its November Developers’ Conference on
Wednesday.
