the Samsung Galaxy fold 2 may have finally been revealed and I'll be
sharing 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 bell you
can also keep up on Facebook Instagram and Twitter by clicking the links in
the description so a week since my last video and we finally have at the design
of the Samsung Galaxy fold 2 being revealed it may not be what everyone
expected but I think it may grow on us with time before we get started though
please like the video if you're looking forward to the galaxy fold 2 and if not
then let me know in the comments what you think of this reveal so we had a
shock yesterday when well-known and reliable leaked rice universe shared
with us what may be the final design of the samsung galaxy fold 2 and it's
probably not what you expected what many were quick to try and shut the
leak down there is a very good reason for it and it is of course the cameras
there unfortunately isn't enough space internally to have a camera on the front
and the back in the same place in this positioning it does solve that issue
even I said himself that he thought the positioning was strange until he did
give it some thought he then provided us with the second image that illustrates
what he meant it can't be in the top right because of the rear camera it
can't be on the left-hand side of the screen as the front cover camera is
there so they've gone with the center of the right-hand side when you are
also asking a white couldn't be in the top-left of the galaxy fold 2 and this
is of course a very good question my only thinking is that maybe it's not
a good position for taking selfies when you have the screen fully open if you
think about it on a normal phone with the selfie camera in the top left or the
top right it is still relatively close to the center whereas on the galaxy fold
it's gonna be far away from the center so it may be awkward for taking selfies
well though we have actually seen this in the past with tablets like Huawei's
mate pad pro and I haven't heard anyone complain about that so it's a bit of a
hard situation now as my brain says that it cannot be right but then ice universe
is a very reliable leaker he's normally very vague if he doesn't have all the
details so for him to come out and say it like this then he must be pretty
certain and he does have a decent track record it's not gonna be too much longer
until we have this confirmed by Samsung and as always that some other leakers
are gonna probably chip in and either agree or disagree it's also important
to remember that sometimes that leaks can be wrong they can come from an
earlier prototype that was changed or for many other reasons so if a leaker
is wrong it doesn't mean they're lying it just means the information they were
given was incorrect something we did have confirmed however is that Samsung
is unveiling a new service called paycard they've teamed up with curved
and MasterCard to provide a finance system to link with your bank cards
and allow for viewing and analysis of your payments given its announcement
this morning it's no doubt going to be available on the Galaxy fold 2 but the
Galaxy fold 2 is coming very soon and as expected it's gonna be part of an
online-only launch event the event is gonna be for the note 20 the Zedd flip
and the fold 2 and pretty much all leakers are agreeing that it's gonna
be on the 5th of August while all the phones are gonna be launched together
there's unfortunately new news that the Galaxy fold 2 is gonna face a delay of
release the galaxy fold to what was meant to be available shortly after
the official launch in the trailer were released but it's no longer going to be
happening the galaxy fold 2 has not yet reached their final version of
its bootloader so it's just not gonna be ready in time it's a software issue so
it's not going to be too problematic but it means we will see a delay and reports
are suggesting that mass production is going to begin in August instead
of the planned July when it comes to the pricing though we had news early
on the galaxy fold 2 should be around 1800 dollars the news did however come
from Ross Young who has been incorrect a couple of times to be fair though he was
giving leaks very early on so things may have just changed also with the
actual release being delayed by a month we don't know if this is gonna have any
effect on costings for anyone who's interested we're gonna run through
all of the details of the Samsung Galaxy fold 2 for my regular viewers you guys
have seen this so just skip to the next video but if you're new here then make
sure you hit subscribe and we're gonna get right into it one of the largest
rumors currently floating around the web is that the Galaxy fold 2 is going
to be the device from Samsung to have an in display selfie camera well this
would actually make sense given that it is a luxury device with a very high
price tag it appears it's just not gonna happen yet credible Lika ice universe
has already advised on Twitter that Samsung is considering this technology
for debut in the S 21 he advises that Samsung are currently evaluating its
feasibility for the S 21 so there's just no way it's gonna be ready in time for
the Galaxy fold 2 the outer design of the galaxy fall 2 is also reported to
be very similar to its predecessor but with a larger external display although
the whole industry has been experiencing delays due to the current outbreak we're
still expecting mass production to begin mid-may and commercial units should be
ready by June when you're speculating that the Samsung Galaxy fall 2 is gonna
be releasing alongside the note 20 in August so it's not too much longer until
we find out we've had plenty of other concepts for the device from people
such as on leaks and concept creator and they all look incredible the future of
folding phones is looking very promising and the galaxy fold 2 is going to be in
a similar form factor is the original fold but it's gonna be even more premium
a patent was previously filed by Samsung and it reveals a foldable device with a
slightly different form factor than the original fold it's more of a Galaxy Tab
with a folding form factor and with this design we get a much larger display and
a better aspect ratio for both media and gaming the pattern also reveals
a full-screen display when unfolded so this is where the rumors of the
in display camera originally came from of course while in display cameras do
seem very unlikely at this time it's not impossible and nothing's been confirmed
just yet the early leaks came from a South Korean publication who advised the
whole design of the Galaxy fold 2 what was aimed at having a tablet but with
portability its reportedly going to be designed to fit comfortably in pockets
but still provide a large enough display the galaxy fold 2 can supposedly be used
in the form of a mini laptop by resting the bottom on the surface and folding up
the top we then have a display on top with a keyboard on the bottom previous
reports were also stating that Samsung was switching to using ultra thin glass
instead of the transparent polymide were used to and this glass was said to
be capable of using an S Pen now this is where the confusion originally came from
if these reports were published prior to the launch of the Zed flip so we had
less information about ultra-thin glass we now know that in its current form
it's not able to support an S Pen so I advise it to disregard these rumours
when it comes to the hardware and the specification that we of course will
get the 512 gigs of internal storage and this will of course at buf s3 we expect
this to be coupled up with 16 gigs of ram and it's of course gonna use
the new snapdragon 865 will likely get some decent cameras but media is gonna
be the main target audience rather than photography a device that folds out into
a large tablet is great for watching media gaming or even doing some editing
but having a large device is not the best choice for a portable camera the
pattern doesn't confirm that this is the galaxy fold 2 or that this is ever gonna
make it to market but it does seem a very sensible design that could take off
if it does we know that despite their initial issue Samsung are continuing
to push their foldable devices we've already had the launch of the new W 20
as well as the Samsung Galaxy Zed flip with each release they're improving the
issues they face and they're becoming much more durable products unfortunately
being a luxury product it also means it is gonna come with a luxury price
tag although the price of the new Galaxy fold 2 is still very much
unknown with the launch expected to be July or August it's not going to be
long until we do get some information and as always I'll be sharing it with
you guys as it comes in but I'd like to know your thoughts in the comments who
are there wants a galaxy fold 2 and what do you think of this new design
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
