Samsung
Galaxy Fold is
an upcoming Android hybrid Smartphone developed by Samsung
Electronics. Unveiled February 21, 2019, it will first be released in the
United States on April 26, 2019.
Development
The
device is capable of being folded open to expose a 7.3-inch tablet sized
flexible display. Samsung
unveiled a prototype of the Galaxy Fold and its "Infinity Flex
Display" during its developers' conference in November 2018, demonstrating
the adaptations to Samsung's Android distribution and newly-unveiled One UI software.
Google stated that it would work with OEMs on supporting foldable devices on
Android.
Specifications
The
Galaxy Fold contains two AMOLED displays; its front cover contains a
small, 4.6-inch display in the centre designed for one-handed use, and the
device can fold open to expose a 7.3-inch display.
Samsung rated the fold
mechanism as supporting up to 200,000 uses. The tablet screen contains a large
notch in the top-right corner, and is coated with a custom multi-layer laminate
in lieu of glass. Its power button contains a fingerprint reader. Samsung
did not state which system-on-chip it uses in the Galaxy Fold, beyond that it
is a "state-of-the-art" CPU with a 7 nanometer production
process, contains 12 GB of RAM, and has 512 GB of non-expandable
storage. The Galaxy Fold will be sold with a 5G variant.
The device contains two batteries split
between the two halves, totaling a 4380 MAh capacity. The Galaxy Fold
contains various cameras, using the same sensors equipped on the Galaxy S10+ including
three rear-facing camera lenses (12-megapixel, 12-megapixel telephoto, and
16-megapixel), as well as a 10-megapixel front-facing camera on the cover, and
a second 10-megapixel front-facing camera, accompanied by an RGB depth sensor,
on the inside screen.
