Apple launched the iPhone 15 Pro model last year with an all-new A17 Pro chip. The chip possesses phenomenal processing power that allows it to run high-end games like Resident Evil Village on an external monitor. The company is working with game developers to bring popular titles to the platform to take better advantage of the A17 Pro chip. It appears that Samsung has also stepped into the mobile gaming category with some exclusive titles underway.
Samsung is partnering with Tencent, Epic, and other companies to develop and bring optimized gaming titles to its foldable smartphones
It is now being reported that Samsung is partnering with companies like Epic, Tencent, and more to bring exclusive gaming titles to its foldable lineup (via Hankyung). The Galaxy Flip and Fold have replaced the Galaxy Note series which was its most powerful device. While the differences between the Note and S series of devices were minute, it was probably the best decision for the company to bring innovation to the lineup.
The Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip have emerged as the giants of the industry as far as foldable technology is concerned. With that said, Samsung is aiming to make use of bigger and flexible displays for gaming with developers working on exclusive titles. The games will be custom-tailored to Samsung's foldable devices with companies like Tencent, Epic, Krafton Inc, Nexon Games Co., NCSOFT Corp, and Pearl Abyss Corp working to bring their popular titles to the platform.
Samsung will hold an advantage over its competition as the high-end game titles will be optimized for the Galaxy-branded foldable smartphone. The titles will be optimized for the foldable display as well as the internals, allowing the experience to be as smooth as it can be on a foldable. Samsung's efforts will allow it to better compete against Apple's in the mobile gaming sector.
Other than the competition, with tailored content and gaming titles, Samsung will be able to capture more market and increase its sales. However, the company needs to perfect its approach ahead of introducing the titles. For instance, it needs to optimize the user interface of its foldable to cater to the forthcoming games. The device should not appear as an oversized smartphone with overlapping buttons.
Take note that Samsung's move to partner with gaming companies is in its early stages and it will take time for the titles to see daylight. In terms of the competition, Apple's iPhone 15 Pro models can be connected to an external monitor and paired with a wireless controller. It allows the iPhone to be transformed into a dedicated console that you can carry around, Possibly, Samsung should take note of this feature and introduce its own iteration with further controls and features.
