Samsung set the pace in the race to release a foldable phone when it announced the Galaxy Fold during the Galaxy Unpacked event last month. The Fold is expected to be released in several markets this year. It was revealed last week that the Galaxy Fold for the international market (Europe) and North America will not have an Exynos chipset. Instead, it will feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset. More details have emerged to confirm that claim.
The Galaxy Fold firmware was analysed recently where it was observed that it was similar to the CPU on the North American version of the Galaxy S10. The analysis was done by the guys at XDA-Developers who conducted a thorough analysis of the combination firmware for the International model of the Galaxy Fold (SM-F900F) and unearthed a reference to SM8150 which is the model name by which the Snapdragon 855 is known internally.

The Fold was initially announced with an Exynos 9820 CPU but this discovery seems to have confirmed earlier speculations that the Galaxy Fold will come in two models, one with LTE and the other with 5G. Since the Snapdragon 855 has a 5G chip, it will be onboard the 5G variant. In addition to hitting Europe, earlier rumour says the 5G version will also be released in Samsung’s home country – South Korea.
