After the botched launch of the 1st-gen Galaxy Fold last year, Samsung is all set to unveil its successor on August 5. A slew of leaks over the past few weeks have revealed several key aspects of the upcoming device. And now, a few leaked renders might have given us a look at what it might look like.
At first, I thought the hole location was strange, but then I thought about it carefully. This might be the most suitable location. pic.twitter.com/r0PBtQGkhl
Unusual as it may seem, the actual positioning of the front-facing camera hasn’t apparently changed from the first-gen model. As pointed out by @mdukasa on Twitter, the position remains the same as in the original Fold, but just seems different because of the pinhole.
My theory: The camera lines up pretty well with Fold 1, so Samsung originally blacked out the space on the right of the camera setup! pic.twitter.com/Dbmx91pmmg
As for the primary screen, it will apparently be a 7.7-inch unit with a 1689 x 2213 resolution. It will use ultra-thin glass and come with a 120Hz refresh rate. A document from the aforementioned filing also reveals that that the combined battery capacity on the Galaxy Fold 2 will be 4365mAh. That’s similar to the 4380mAh for the original Galaxy Fold.
