Earlier this year, Samsung announced its first foldable smartphone — Samsung Galaxy Fold. However, days before the phone was scheduled to go on sale, it’s launch was postponed as many reviewers started complaining about the phone’s display breaking in just a couple of days of usage.
Recently, the company officially revealed that the issues on the devices have been fixed and the smartphone is all set to get launched in September. While the company has confirmed this, it has not yet revealed the exact launch date.
Now, reports indicate that the launch of Samsung Galaxy Fold smartphone could take place right around the launch of Apple iPhone 11, which is expected to take place between 18th September and 20th September.
The report further claims that Samsung is currently mass-producing the Galaxy Fold smartphone along with the upcoming Galaxy Note10 series phones. Also, the South Korean market analysts estimate 100,000 units will be sold in Samsung’s home market and forecasts an initial 20,000 to 30,000 units will be available for Korea at launch.
