Leaked video of Samsung’s much-hyped folding phone shows ugly screen ‘crease’
Samsung has been promising phones with folding screens for years – but just as the Galaxy Fold arrives, a leaked video has shown off one, big problem.
Namely, there’s a huge crease down the middle of the 7.3-inch Infinity Flex Display, which opens and closes like a book.
Fans have been aghast at the size of the crease on the device, which is set to retail at around $2,000 when it launches in May.
Previously, then the phone was shown off at Mobile World Congress, it was kept inside a case, so that people couldn’t see the screen clearly.
Tech experts suggest that the timing of the leaked video (very close to launch) hints that this might be the final version of the device.
Several companies including Samsung have unveiled phones with folding screens this year – including Xiaomi which unveiled a ‘double folding’ device.
