the Samsung Galaxy fold 2 may be coming sooner than we thought and I'll be
sharing all the details right after this
if you're new here and want to stay up to date with the latest tech please hit
subscribe followed by the bow so the Galaxy fold had many issues of but a
report from SlashGear reveals that industry insiders believe we could see
the galaxy fold 2 as early as April 2020 as well as this lets go digital
have discovered a pattern that reveals a folding device with an in display camera
we'll start with the news from SlashGear so they've released an article to say
that the galaxy fold 2 will be coming in April with many improvements over the
first edition for starters that they're going to be using an ultra-thin glass on
the flexible device instead of the transparent polymide currently used that
is vulnerable to scratches and damage they also report that the galaxy fold 2
will fold differently they're expecting it to fold down vertically like a
clamshell instead of the current book type folding that we have the display is
said to be six point seven inches when unfolded and it's going to be taller
than it is wide and it will of course be a dynamic AMOLED these details do fall
in line with the pattern found by let's go digital who have also created a
render to show us what they believe the device is gonna look like the
interesting thing about the patent is the camera system the fold 2 is designed
in a way that the camera sensor on the inside will also double up as the selfie
camera and there's no cutout to allow the inner camera to see through but it
instead it incorporates several lenses that allow this to work and this is
shown is the light transmission region in the patent it's a great design that
reduces the amount of camera sensors required at which of course will also
reduce the price of the device the original fold had six cameras a most
likely part of the reason it was so expensive the patent also suggests the
possibility of an under display camera instead of it being embedded into the
bezel and what we have seen this technology already from Xiaomi and Oppo
nothing has been revealed from Samsung as of yet Samsung have been very
secretive on their progress so far so it's gonna be interesting to see if this
will in fact be ready for the fold - we're still yet to see the current
success of the original fold and many are already creating concept
images and videos of the fall too but we do know that given the expense to create
such a folding device it will of course be another flagship or we haven't
received any specification details on the device we can safely assume that it
is going to be powered by the latest snapdragon 865 it will no doubt have 12
gigs of ram with at least 512 storage like its predecessors and cameras will
likely be reasonable but I wouldn't think photography is going to be the
main selling point of this device it will of course be running Android 10 and
battery capacity is going to depend on the size and design when it comes to the
display yet we believe it's going to be six point seven inches unfolded and it
will of course be a dynamic AMOLED if they can protect the display with
ultra-thin glass then it will be a huge improvement over its predecessor with so
many other manufacturers working on foldable devices it's gonna be
interesting to see if they do in fact take off
Samsung have no doubt learnt a lot from the initial release of the fold and have
already corrected that most of the issues they faced we previously saw a
new folding device in one of samsung's teasers but this was before all of the
issues they faced with the original fold so even if a prototype did exist at the
time and they would most likely be working on a redesign of course as more
news comes to light about the new folding phone I'll be sharing with you
guys straight away but as always I'd like to know your thoughts in the
comments would you be interested in a fold if the screen was better protected
and what would your maximum budget be for the Galaxy fold 2 but thanks for
watching the video if you liked it smash a thumbs up if you didn't hit the thumbs
down twice and I'll see you guys in the next one
