While the Samsung Galaxy Fold had some rough patches before its official release, it seems that Samsung now deems it ready for the device to arrive in the Philippines.
Like the Huawei Mate X, the Samsung Galaxy Fold comes with a foldable design. It comes with two screens with the main screen having a 7.3-inch 2152 x 1536 Dynamic AMOLED display while its secondary cover display is a 4.6-inch 1680 x 720 Super AMOLED display.
The Samsung Galaxy Fold has a three rear camera setup composed of a 12MP wide-angle camera with Super Speed Dual Pixel AF, a 16MP f/2.2 ultrawide, and a 12MP f/2.4 telephoto camera.
The device comes with two front-facing cameras. When the Galaxy Fold is open, a 10MP f/2.2 + 8MP RGB dual camera takes over. If folded, the cover comes with a 10MP f/2.2 front-facing camera.
In terms of performance, the Samsung Galaxy Fold is expected to come with an Exynos 9825 chip with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of UFS 3.0 storage. It gets its power from a 4,380mAh dual battery with Fast Charging for both wired and wireless charging.
