Weibo user @็ๅฅๅฎ recently posted images of a foldable smartphone, which is equipped with Samsung ONE UI and seems to be the new Galaxy Fold 2 engineering device.
On December 24, another well-known blogger Ice universe (@UniverseIce)ย revealed more details of this device.
He claims that this mysterious folding screen phone is the Galaxy Fold 2, which will be equipped with an ultra-thin glass protective screen instead of the plastic protective screen commonly used in folding screens.
Plastic protective screen has always been the biggest disadvantage of folding screen mobile phones. Users' nails can leave permanent marks on the screen. Soft plastic also causes the internal screen to be easily damaged. In addition, plastic also has serious creases.
Glass protection screen can greatly improve these problems, it is harder, the protection is stronger, the creases are slighter, and the overall reliability and aesthetics have reached a higher level.
It is unclear who the supplier of the foldable glass protective screen is, but Corning has stated that it has been developing ultra-thin foldable protective glass.
Previously, it was reported that Samsung's next-generation foldable phone will be sold globally and is expected to be available in April 2020. The official release date may be February.
