That’s right, the foldable device from Samsung is finally a reality. Dubbed the Galaxy Fold, this device was the first device that was announced at Unpacked 2019.
A Smartphone. A Tablet. Folded into One.
Samsung is using a new 7.3″ Infinity Flex Display (1536 x 1960) that allows the phone itself to have a tablet-sized screen that can be folded to fit into a pocket. The best part is, it can fold up to a smaller 4.6″ display (840 x 1960).
