The Galaxy Z Fold 2. [credit: Samsung ]
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G was sort of half-announced alongside the Galaxy Note 20 last month, and today Samsung made it the rest-of-the-way announced with a second event, an official spec sheet, and a price. Between the first half of the announcement and various leaks, we already knew nearly everything about the Fold 2 except a price and a ship date. So the big news today is that the Galaxy Z Fold 2 is $1,999—a whole $10 more than the original Fold—and it ships September 18 in the US.
The rest of the event is official confirmation on specs that were already leaked. The Fold 2 has a Snapdragon 865+, 12GB of RAM, 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4500mAh battery. The phone supports wireless charging, it has a side-mounted fingerprint reader, it runs Android 10, and if you can get it, supports sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G. There is no Exynos version internationally—all Folds in all regions will run the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865+.
The giant screens are the star of the show. The inside is a folding 7.6-inch, 2208×1768 OLED display, which, this year, gets a major upgrade to a 120Hz refresh rate. The outside screen is a 6.2-inch, 2260×816 OLED display, which is dramatically bigger than the 4.6-inch display on the Galaxy Fold 1. The display has way smaller bezels compared to the ridiculous front of the Fold 1, but with a 25:9 aspect ratio, it's one of the tallest, skinniest displays we've ever seen. This screen is still 60Hz , so you'll be quickly switching between a 60Hz outer display and a 120Hz inner display, which will be odd.
