SAMSUNG LAUNCHES FOLDING SMARTPHONE, FIRST #5G HANDSET
Samsung on Wednesday unveiled a smartphone that folds open to be a tablet, becoming the first major manufacturer to offer the feature as it strives to stoke excitement in a slumping market.
The Galaxy Fold, unveiled at a San Francisco event, serves as a smartphone with a 4.6-inch display and opens like a book to become a 7.3-inch tablet.
“We are giving you a device that doesn’t just define a new category, it defies category,” said Samsung’s Justin Denison at the event.
The Fold will be available April 26 starting at $1,980, the company said.
The launch comes as the smartphone market experiences its worst-ever decline with consumers keeping devices longer and waiting for new innovations.
