To be honest, the industry has not sold new folding screen devices for a while. The last folding screen model that impressed me was the Huawei Mate X2, and then the Xiaomi MIX Fold.
And as time came to the second half of the year, another folding screen player in the industry, Samsung, finally released a notice-the company will hold a new Galaxy product launch on August 11.
Although it is not clearly stated which new models the Galaxy family will usher in, it is easy to tell from the warm-up poster that the two series of Samsung’s folding screens, the new Z Fold and Z Flip models, should all be unveiled at the press conference.
So what surprises will the new Galaxy Z series bring us? Let’s dig a bit from all kinds of revelations.
Galaxy Z Fold is Samsung’s first folding screen model, and it is also Samsung’s most iterative folding screen device.
This generation of Z Fold3 will still maintain the horizontal folding mode, with an inner screen of 7.55 inches and an outer screen of 6.23 inches, and it has the opportunity to carry an under-screen proactive solution.
Compared with the previous generation products, the external screen of the mobile phone will be larger, which can greatly improve the disadvantages of the external screen being too narrow and inconvenient to use, making the mobile phone more like an ordinary mobile phone when it is closed, and increasing the utilization rate of the external screen.
The biggest upgrade of this machine is that it is compatible with Samsung S Pen stylus, which is also the first Samsung folding screen phone with built-in S Pen.
Previously, in the test of GeekBench 5, the new Samsung folding screen ran a score of 1124 points for a single core and 3350 points for a multi-core. The processor corresponding to this score has a high probability of being the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 mobile platform.
The overall Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 has not changed much. The internal screen is a 6.7-inch AMOLED center-mounted perforated screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. The secondary screen next to the rear camera module has been upgraded to 1.9 inches in size, which can display more information. .
It is worth mentioning that Samsung may launch a number of “co-branding” for the Galaxy Z Flip this time. In addition to the Thom Browne that has already existed before, there are also well-known luxury brands GUCCI and LV, let alone a sporty feel.
According to the information leaked by the retailer, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 256GB storage version is priced at 2,038.63 euros, or about 155,000 yuan, while the price in South Korea starts at 1,900,000 won, or about 10,754 yuan.
There is a relatively large gap between the two prices, but after all, Samsung is a Korean local brand, and it is understandable that the domestic price is lower.
And there was also news that this generation of foldable mobile phones will be reduced by 20%. I don’t know what price they will buy in China? But no matter how much it drops, it won’t be less than 10,000 yuan.
