Samsung Galaxy Fold gets September 18 Launch in Singapore

Look what we have here Geeks! The New Samsung Galaxy Fold!


My friend sent me this as he was really excited to get hold of the new Samsung Galaxy Fold!

The New Galaxy Fold is envision to provide a new mobile experience with mobility and multi-tasking featuring a transformative design where it is a fusion of smartphone and tablet features. When closed, you get essential smartphone needs on its 4.6” HD+ Super AMOLED Display and when opened, you get an immersive entertainment by watching videos, playings games, and more, on its 7.3-inch Infinity Flex Display.


To match it unique form-factor and design, Samsung also work on a unique foldable UX, versatile camera and premium performance. Transforms how you capture, share, and edit mobile content with App Continuity - capture shot while it's portable as a smartphone and view it on a wider display for best editing like you do on a tablet. My friend told me that there is a line between the two screen but it was not noticeable and not bothersome while he was using the device. He was really excited when he was trying it out for the first time.

Powering the device is a powerful Snapdragon 855 7nm Octa-Core Processor matched with 12GB RAM and 512GB Internal Storage UFS 3.0. This internal setup should guarantee a smooth android experience whatever apps and games you will run.

Camera capabilities is also not a push over with primary Triple Camera that is also found on the S10 and S10 - 12MP Wide-angle f1.5 - f/2.4 Camera; 12MP Telephoto f2.4 Camera; and 16MP Ultra Wide f2.2 Camera. As for the front, it holds Dual camera setup of 10MP Selfie f2.2 Camera and an 8MP RGB Depth f1.8 Camera. There is also a camera on the cover which is also same as at 10MP. Definitely this incredible device will take extraordinary photo and video outputs that can be readily edit and shared to please anyone that looks at your content.

Complete set of advance connectivity from wireless to direct connections. It comes with WiFi ax HE80 MIMO 1024QAM, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, GPS, and will come in 4G and 5G models (market dependent). Will be making use of USB Type-C for its data and charging. Features fingerprint and facial recognition security. Carries a 4380mAh battery that supports fast charging for wired and wireless as well as wireless share.


My friend is in Singapore and accordingly the device is to be launch there in Sept 18, 2019 in Cosmos Black and Space Silver for 3,088 SGD. 5G-ready models will be launch in select countries. No word yet if it will be release for the Philippine Market.
