The US-based cover glass manufacturer Corning made an announcement earlier this week that it has reached the final stage of development for its cover glass for foldable smartphones. So, it looks like Corning will start shipping its foldable cover glasses for foldable smartphone manufacturers, such as Samsung, Oppo, and so on. Though, Corning is not the only company in the market which is making glass cover for foldable handsets of Samsung. Another one is there for a tough competition against Corning, the German-based company Schott.
