Samsung Electronics will release its "Galaxy Z Flip" folder phone in the form of a clam shell (shell shell) at the "Galaxy Unpack 2020" event in San Francisco on November 11.

It is a follow-up to the Galaxy Fold.

According to the media, the internal display of the Galaxy Fold 2 is 8 inches, which is 0.7 inches larger than the previous Galaxy Fold (7.3 inches), and the camera capacity is improved from 16 million pixels to 188 million pixels. In particular, the next Galaxy Fold is expected to be equipped with a 'S pen', and the industry is paying attention to whether it is actually applied.
In addition, Galaxy Fold 2 is said to use ultra-thin glass (UTG) instead of transparent polyimide film (CPI), and Snapdragon 865 is applied instead of upgraded one step from Snapdragon 855.
