How Samsung 'fixed' the Galaxy Fold

Samsung’s Galaxy Fold had some major issues with the display and hinge back when we reviewed it in April. Samsung now thinks it has addressed the problems after making some key hardware changes to the protective film and hinge. We’re taking a first look at the Galaxy Fold changes. The phone will be available on September 18th in France, Germany, Singapore, and the UK, but Samsung hasn’t revealed an exact date for the US yet.

Are these changes enough for you to buy the Galaxy Fold?

Such an exciting phone. I can't wait for a couple generations to go by to get the refined final version.

Samsung: **finally releases the Galaxy Fold**

JerryRigEverything: “Let’s...get started”

This guy needs a little bit more of Dieter's energy and enthusiasm.

Think about how cool it would be to have S-pen support

For all I know, the display won't scratches at a level 6, with deeper grooves at a level 7.

Congrats to Samsung for pushing the limits of the current smartphone state. Let's admit they thought outside the box and it's a cool phone.

Is anyone else struggling to hear what this guy is trying to say?

The Fold was folded and now it's about to unfold.

Imagine if the Fold series became a success one day... Samsung would literally have three successful flagships: the S, the Note, and the Fold.

It's gonna be interesting to see how JerryRigEverything takes the film on top of the screen off...

I'm usually not a wait for the second generation person but on this one it seems better to hold out for a year or two. But I agree this is the future of phones.

Shout-out
to Samsung for not being afraid to try new things

[djz]

Yes, but how resistant is it to shoving clay in the hinge?

[whichri]

consumer: I want a durable smartphone with long battery life
mnfctr: How about zero bezels?
mnfctr 2 : How about glass back!
mnfctr 3: How about a folding screen!
consumer: huuuh?!

[StephenSiu]

So because some ppl mistaken the screen and force it off and wreck the screen = now we're stuck with bezels on the inside?

[haknys]

Lets see how it holds up after a year first.

[rungxanh]

His narrating is so soft I can still hear the Galaxy Fold flexible screen cracking

[RoRoRoUrBoat]

Thanks for the coverage. I love the Galaxy Fold. Fingers crossed.

The only thing I don't like is the small screens bezels when the fold is closed it has some big Ole chins
