Following some encouraging first impressions shared earlier this week, disaster seemingly struck for the Samsung Galaxy Fold today when a handful of reporters revealed some serious display issues. Now, Samsung has officially commented on Galaxy Fold display problems, and they’re looking into it.
On Monday, Samsung officially let the press handle the Galaxy Fold after it was shown off in a tightly controlled demo in February. Just two days later, the first review units are encountering multiple issues all focused on the foldable display.
Smartphone prices have been creeping to insane levels for the past couple of years, but the Galaxy Fold is another monster entirely with its price tag just shy of $2,000. Despite that massive price, Samsung sold out of the Galaxy Fold both on its own website and through a carrier partner in less than a day.
The Samsung Galaxy Fold first went official at the same time as the Galaxy S10, but no one was allowed to touch it at that point. This week, Samsung finally gave members of the press some hands-on time with the Galaxy Fold – here’s what they had to say in their first impressions.
Samsung is coming hot off the heels of its Galaxy S10 series with an industry first, the Galaxy Fold. The first foldable phone to hit mass market costs a pretty penny, but if you’re interested in picking it up, here’s where to buy the Samsung Galaxy Fold.
While we haven’t yet seen much of the Samsung Galaxy Fold beyond a few video snippets, the folding smartphone is heading to the US on April 26th, with the Galaxy S10 5G following sometime in May.
In just a couple of weeks, Samsung is set to officially put the Galaxy Fold on sale. The company’s long-promised smartphone is finally making its debut, and just a couple of weeks out, mass production has started on the OLED displays needed for the device.
One of the biggest concerns surrounding foldable phones is durability. Today, Samsung has released a new video to show off how it stress tests the new Galaxy Fold to see how it holds up to years worth of folding.
The Samsung Galaxy Fold was arguably one of the most notable devices unveiled at Unpacked 2019. Despite the headlines and show intro slot, we haven’t seen a great deal of the device apart from behind two inches of glass at MWC 2019 — that is until now.
Folding smartphones just hit the market in these past few weeks, and already it seems Samsung has more in the pipeline. According to a new report, Samsung is working on two other folding designs to debut after the Galaxy Fold goes on sale, as well as working on durability concerns for that first device.
During the build-up to MWC 2019, we knew that 5G would likely be pushed like never before at the event. Just a week prior we saw the Samsung Galaxy Fold unveiled at Unpacked 2019, but little did we know that this year MWC would kind of boil down to a case of 5G vs foldables.
Samsung unveiled its vision of the future yesterday, the S10 5G. Of course, I’m kidding, the Samsung Galaxy Fold was the star of yesterday’s show, $1980 price tag and all. Samsung didn’t go into great detail on the device, not even giving the press hands-on time with it. However, there are still some bits of information you probably missed.
When Samsung showed off its first Android Foldable last November, it mostly focussed on the display technology and “disguised elements of the design.” At Unpacked 2019, this device was officially introduced as the Samsung Galaxy Fold.

Samsung is set to host one of its biggest Unpacked events in years today. Live from San Francisco, the company is getting ready to unveil the Galaxy S10 family, show off the new Galaxy Fold, and launch a plethora of other products. Here’s how to watch the Samsung Galaxy S10 event live.
We’re just over a week from the official unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy S10, but Samsung could upstage themselves if their latest Twitter teaser for the Samsung Galaxy F is anything to go by.
Foldable smartphone tech was hot at CES, and whilst Samsung did not show off any folding display tech this year in the Nevada desert, they have dropped a massive hint that the February 20 Galaxy Unpacked event will prove to be the big reveal for the upcoming Samsung “Galaxy F” folding smartphone.
Another alleged live photo of the rumored Samsung Galaxy F device has appeared (via GSMArena), and it appears to sport a bezel that looks very similar to another smartphone we all know very well. The rumored-to-be premium version of the Samsung Galaxy S5 has appeared in countless other leaks and live photos, but this is the first we’ve seen of the device close up like this.
The Samsung Galaxy S5, expected to be announced in March and released in April, will come in two variants, a higher-spec one in a metal case and a lower-spec one in a plastic case, claims SamMobile, citing an anonymous ‘insider.’
First, let’s get the most mysterious thing about the Galaxy S5 out of the way: Yes, it will come in both metal and plastic versions as has been rumored, with the metal version costing around 800 Euros and the plastic model coming in at around 650 Euros …
