Advancement in technology and innovation has resulted in visually impressive foldable phones. The transition of conventional smartphones into foldable phones is revolutionary and apparently has an edge over other smartphones. Foldable phones are making a breakthrough this year, throwing a curveball at ancient smartphone technology.  

Entering into the arena of foldable phones race are following contenders:

1. Samsung Galaxy Fold

One of the mega smartphone manufacturing company, Samsung, as rumors have it, will soon release its first foldable smartphone. The phone has a cover display of 4.5 inches and the phone opens like a paperback book, to give a 7.3 inches display, almost twice the size of the previous screen, to give the user a bigger screen for playing games and watching movies. The dual screens also support three applications working side by side. The Samsung phone will have an OS called One UI, which will enable the foldable body of the phone to support Android applications.

The Galaxy Fold has a 10MP selfie camera on the cover screen, a 16Mp-12MP-12MP camera combination rear-triple camera and a 10MP-8MP front dual camera over its second, bigger display. 

Samsung has revealed that the smartphone will support both 4G and 5G data networks. The Fold will feature a 7nm 64-bit Octa-core processor and 12GB of RAM. There’s 512GB of built-in storage, and there's no MicroSD slot to add extra storage.

The Fold has a total battery capacity of 4,380mAh, via two batteries which are split on either side of the hinge.
