Successor to the Galaxy Fold, the second-generation bendable screen device from Samsung features enhanced hinge mechanism, big dual-screen set-up, new optics and customised Android 10 operating system
Samsung is reportedly planning to start manufacturing Galaxy Fold 2 components in May, and is looking at starting mass-producing the device in June/July
The Galaxy Fold pre-orders could be done on Samsung online store, Samsung shop, and select retail outlets, including the Samsung Opera House in Bengaluru
Joining the crowds scrutinizing every millimeter of the screen and its hinge will be executives at Huawei Technologies Co., Oppo, Vivo, Xiaomi Corp. and even Apple Inc
The world's largest smartphone maker spent nearly eight years developing the Galaxy Fold, but had to hold its launch in April after reviewers reported screen problems within days of use
The units given to international tech reviewers encountered display distortion and screen flickering issues, forcing the South Korean giant to postpone its launch
