Samsung’s New Foldable Specifications
Apart from the new variant, reports claim that we’ll be seeing a notable difference in the size of the phone. The 7.7-inch full display along with a larger cover display will compete over its original fold whose display is 7.3-inch. This increase in the size of the new fold is planned to tackle the complaints of the users. They previously raised a concern that the galaxy fold’s cover display was simply too small. Expect to see a hole-punch cutout on the Galaxy Fold 2. This feature would make this device a lot more different than other flagships, as all the flagships settled for a front-facing camera at the notch. 5G support is also expected.
There is still a raging doubt if the Fold 2 will be more durable than its predecessor. It is presumed that Fold 2 will feature a tough, yet tender foldable glass display. No one can confirm if this model will come with its new issues.
