Samsung delays launch of $2,000 folding phone after problems with review units.
Samsung is delaying the rollout of its $2,000 foldable phones after several tech reviewers reported that their review units became damaged within a day or two of using them.
The hybrid Galaxy Fold has a 4.6-inch display when folded as a phone and 7.3-inch display when unfolded as a tablet. The new device starts at $1,980, depending on region and carrier, and will come in an LTE or 5G option. "My best guess is that it’s a piece of debris, something harder than lint for sure. It’s possible that it’s something else, though, like the hinge itself on a defective unit pressing up on the screen," Bohn wrote."It’s a distressing thing to discover just two days after receiving my review unit.""A review unit given to CNBC by Samsung is also completely unusable after just two days of use," he wrote.
Samsung's $2,000 folding phone is already breaking for some users, including @RoboTodd, after two days. https://t.co/CMIBUPOFSj pic.twitter.com/wY4d8ZSUYv This is what the Galaxy Fold looks like this morning, like the damage it’s spreading around. pic.twitter.com/4g57LC9Ng2
