<p>Royole, known for making the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2019/07/30/worlds-first-foldable-phone-royole-flexpai-undergoes-jerryrigeverythings-durability-test/">world&#8217;s first foldable smartphone</a>, does not seem to be in the best financial condition. The company has defaulted on its employee wages for a year. The leading innovative company in China, whose primary business is focused on flexible display technology, has been in crisis for over a year. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="656" height="324" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/flexpai.jpeg?x10805" alt="" class="wp-image-593808" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/flexpai.jpeg 656w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/flexpai-300x148.jpeg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/flexpai-324x160.jpeg 324w" sizes="(max-width: 656px) 100vw, 656px" /></figure></div>



<p>As per China&#8217;s News Daily, around 50 Royole employees resorted to protest demonstrations with banners and slogans at the company&#8217;s Display Headquarters entrance in Shenzhen. After not adhering to the verbal promises made by Liu Zihong, Royole&#8217;s CEO, the employees had no option but to protest against the company. The employees have not received their areas and wages since November 2022 and are now demanding to resolve the issue and credit their wages as soon as possible. </p>



<p>The Employee Rights Protection Committee signed an application for the settlement of the remaining claims by Shenzhen Royole Technology Co., Ltd. as a demand. The Royole workers have not received the wage for the past 8 months, while the employees haven&#8217;t seen it for the past 12 months. Due to the ongoing financial crisis, thousands of company employees have already left the company over the past couple of years. </p>



<p>In response, the company said the business has significantly suffered losses and is only able to pay social security deposits. Only 200–300 employees are now left with the company, consisting of engineers who maintain the production line. </p>



<p>Royole&#8217;s move to seek help from the government and investors went in vain, as employees are saying the production line never started in 2022. However, the government is helping the company to restructure its debt, but there has been no significant change. </p>



<h2><strong>Royole&#8217;s Past Glory</strong></h2>



<p>The company&#8217;s last smartphone launched was the<a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/12/10/royole-flexpai-2-5g-12gb512gb-version-finally-available-for-purchase/"> Royole FlexPai 2</a> in 2020, with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. Even though the company&#8217;s maiden smartphone, Royole FlexPai, <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2019/04/29/worlds-first-foldable-smartphone-royole-flexpai-sold-out-within-few-minutes/">was sold out within a few minutes</a> after going on sale in 2019,. In the last decade, it has been considered a primary competitor to Samsung Display&#8217;s monopoly as it has developed ultra-low-temperature non-silicon process integration technology to create flexible displays. </p>

<p>A known tipster <a href="https://twitter.com/evleaks/status/1454890475194826753" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Evan Blass</em></a> (@evleaks) shared a new image that was a leaked render of the upcoming FlexPai 3. In other words, the successor of the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/09/22/royole-flexpai-2-official-launch-specs-features-price/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">FlexPai 2</a> has just been revealed. Looking at the image, it appears that the Chinese smartphone maker has made major changes in design for the next generation of foldable handset. The device now features a dedicated rear mounted camera module and even feature a pop up selfie camera as well, opposed to the single vertically stacked camera module on the side of the display that acted as both the selfie and rear shooter.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class=" wp-image-422466 aligncenter" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/FDDPGv4WUAwWIgv.jpg?x10805" alt="Royole" width="633" height="361" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/FDDPGv4WUAwWIgv.jpg 500w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/FDDPGv4WUAwWIgv-300x171.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 633px) 100vw, 633px" /></p>
<p>Although, the rear camera module now only includes two sensors, which is a downgrade from last gen&#8217;s four image sensors. Furthermore, it appears that the device will be an outward folding device, similar to its predecessor, as we can also observe a square shaped area that is bent inward in the other half of the rear panel. This would likely help in accommodating the camera module&#8217;s bump when in the folded state.</p>
<p>As of right now, finer details regarding the smartphone is still unavailable. However, the Royole FlexPai 3 was also recently spotted on TENAA (Via <a href="https://www.xda-developers.com/royole-flexpie-3-design-leak/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>XDADevelopers</em></a>) that revealed some key information. The foldable phone will apparently feature a 7.2 inch display and will be powered by a 3,360mAh battery pack. Unfortunately, that is all the information we have to go on for now.</p>

<p>The FlexPai 2 is a more affordable foldable smartphone when compared to the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/samsung-galaxy-z-fold2-5g/">Galaxy Z Fold 2</a> which sells for $1899 for the base model with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.</p>
<p>Royole&#8217;s tablet has a 7.8-inch OLED display with a 1920 x 1440 resolution. It does not need a cover display as it folds outward. This means when it is in the folded state, you have two screens on each side &#8211; a 5.5-inch screen in front and a 5.4-inch screen on the back.</p>
<p>There is a <a href="http://gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-865">Snapdragon 865</a> processor powering the FlexPai 2 and it draws power from a 4450mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. There are four cameras on the tablet &#8211; a 64MP main camera, a 16MP ultrawide angle camera, an 8MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and there is a 32MP for portrait images. Because it folds outwards, you have to close the device to take a picture except it is a selfie you want to take.</p>
<p>The FlexPai 2 runs WaterOS 2.0 based on Android 10. It also has dual SIM support, 5G, stereo speakers, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, and Bluetooth 5.1. It is available in Sunrise Gold, Midnight Black, and Cosmic Gray.</p>

It launched more than a year after the original with top notch specs and even went on pre orders on <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/jd-com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">JD.com</a> (JingDong). However, just a while after the listing went live, the FlexPai 2 had already received over 150,000 reservations on the Chinese e-commerce platform.</p>
<p><figure id="attachment_343612" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-343612" style="width: 799px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-343612 size-full" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Royole-FlexPai-2-3rd-Generation-Cicada-Wing-Display-180-degree-Stepless-3S-Hinge.gif?x10805" alt="Royole FlexPai 2 3rd Generation Cicada Wing Display 180-degree Stepless 3S Hinge" width="799" height="587" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-343612" class="wp-caption-text">Royole FlexPai 2 &#8211; 3rd Generation Cicada Wing Display with 180° Stepless 3S Hinge</figcaption></figure></p>
<p>For those unaware, the Royole FlexPai 2 is a foldable smartphone that is priced at just 9988 Yuan (roughly 1463 US Dollars), which is quite affordable for a handset with a flexible display and such specs. While almost 1,500 US Dollars is by no means a small amount, it is still about 40 percent cheaper than the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/samsung-galaxy-z-fold2-5g/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2</a> that costs 16,999 yuan (roughly 2,505 US Dollars). So, the device is clearly priced very competitively in order to capture a wider audience.</p>
<h6 class="related"><strong>Editor&#8217;s Pick: <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/09/23/royole-flexpai-2-vs-samsung-galaxy-z-fold-2-vs-huawei-mate-xs-specs-comparison/">Royole FlexPai 2 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 vs Huawei Mate Xs: Specs Comparison</a></strong></h6>
<p>This pricing has seemingly worked as well, considering it has seen over 150,000 reservations in under a  day into its launch. According to an official Royole announcement, the first hour after the launch, 50,000 bookings were already made for the FlexPai 2 on JD.com and by 2 pm in China on the 23rd, this number crossed 150,000. So it may seem like even before the actual launch of the device, the company has already sold out its latest flagship.</p>

<p>Talking about the specs of the FlexPai 2, it features the 3rd Gen Cicada wings flexible OLED panel with Stepless 3S Hinge for its 7.8 inch display. Under the hood, a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/qualcomm-snapdragon-865/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Qualcomm Snapdragon 865</a> SoC runs the device with 8/12GB of RAM and 256/512GB of internal storage. The handset supports 5G networking and can rival the likes of the Galaxy Z Fold 2 and <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/huawei-mate-xs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Huawei Mate Xs</a>, but at a lower price tag.</p>

<h2><strong>Royole FlexPai 2 Specifications</strong></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The newly launched Royole FlexPai 2 brings a  number of improvements over its predecessor. The most obvious one is its display. Unlike its forerunner, the 3rd Generation Cicada Wing flexible </span><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/OLED/"><span style="font-weight: 400">OLED</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400"> display with Stepless 3S Hinge (180°) on the FlexPai 2 can be folded flat with a zero-gap. The company claims they have decreased the overall thickness of the phone when folded by 40%, compared to their previous model.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Further, the 7.8-inch unfolded display, which is larger than any other foldable smartphone in the market has a resolution of 1920 x 1,440 pixels with 4:3 aspect ratio. On the other hand, when folded, the main and secondary display will measure 5.5-inch (1,440 x 900) and 5.4-inch (1,440 x 810) respectively.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Under the hood, the device comes equipped with </span><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/Qualcomm/"><span style="font-weight: 400">Qualcomm</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400"> Snapdragon 865 chipset coupled with 8GB/12GB RAM and 256GB/512GB internal storage. There’s no support for microSD card but the handset comes with dual nano-SIM card slots and also has dual-mode (SA/NSA) 5G connectivity.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">It runs waterOS 2.0 based on Android 10 with an uncanny resemblance to Huawei’s </span><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/EMUI/"><span style="font-weight: 400">EMUI</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400"> operating system. In case you do not know, the software on the original FlexPai looked similar to </span><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/MIUI/"><span style="font-weight: 400">MIUI</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400">.

<p>The company will be officially launching the Royole Flexpai 2 on 21st September 2020. Under the hood, the new gen foldable smartphone will feature a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/qualcomm-snapdragon-865/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Qualcomm Snapdragon 865</a> SoC with 8GB of RAM and either 256GB or 512GB of internal storage. <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/royole-flexpai/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The original</a>, on the other hand, featured a<a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-8150/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> Snapdragon 8150</a> mobile processor and had a 6GB RAM and 128GB storage variant as well. Its 4450mAh battery is also slightly larger than the original, which had a 4,000mAh battery.</p>
<h6 class="related"><strong>Editor&#8217;s Pick: <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/09/18/huawei-has-hope-amd-gets-entity-list-business-license/">Huawei may have some hope as AMD gets license to sell products to companies in the Entity List</a></strong></h6>
<p>The upcoming iteration also arrives with Android 10 out of the box instead of the Android 9 on the first generation. Royole&#8217;s FlexPai 2 also sports the company&#8217;s third generation flexible display dubbed the Cicada Wings, which has a number of improvements over the previous models like a smaller crease and bend radius along with a higher overall brightness and better viewing angles. The new panel is more durable as well and can withstand any types of bends or rolling of the display.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-343058 aligncenter" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/20023584-b.jpg?x10805" alt="Royole" width="480" height="640" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/20023584-b.jpg 480w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/20023584-b-225x300.jpg 225w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/20023584-b-315x420.jpg 315w" sizes="(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px" /></p>
<p>Another improvement arrives in the form of optics, with the FlexPai 2 housing a quad camera module over the dual camera module on the first FlexPai. This camera system consists of a 64 megapixel primary lens along with a 16 megapixel and two 8 megapixel sensors. Unfortunately, the pricing of the device is currently unknown, but it is confirmed to arrive in three color variants, namely, Magic Gold, Dark Night Black, and Star Grey.</p>

<p>The new FlexPai 2 was briefly announced back in March and is now set to get a proper launch on September 21. The event will begin at 7:30 PM Pacific Daylight Time which corresponds to 10:30 AM Beijing Time. The invite says the product launch will be live-streamed on YouTube and on the official Royole website.</p>
<p>The device is expected to feature the company&#8217;s 3rd generation Cicada Wing Fully Flexible OLED Display that is 7.8-inches in size and has a 60Hz refresh rate. It will have a Snapdragon 865 processor, 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and a 4050mAh battery. A <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/08/24/new-flexpai-2-specs-leaked-packs-64mp-quad-cameras-sd865-and-more/">leak from last month</a> also revealed the phone will have four cameras &#8211; 64MP + 16MP + 8MP + 32MP and it will weight 340 grams.</p>
<p>The FlexPai 2 is expected to be cheaper than the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/samsung-galaxy-z-fold2-5g/">Galaxy Z Fold 2</a> but that remains to be seen. Hopefully, the foldable phone will be available globally when it launches.</p>

However, the manufacturer said it would not launch until the second quarter of the year, which of course has already passed. We can blame COVID-19 for the delay. However, the device may soon launch as new details have now revealed.</p>
<p>At the launch event in March, <a href="http://gizmochina.com/tag/royole">Royole</a> revealed the second-gen foldable phone will feature its 3rd-gen Cicada Wing Fully Flexible Display. The screen measures 7.8-inches when unfolded and has a 4:3 aspect ratio.</p>
<p>According to Digital Chat Station, the display of the FlexPai 2 will have a 1920 x 1440 resolution. It is an OLED display but with a standard 60Hz refresh rate. The leaker says the Snapdragon 865 processor inside the device is paired with 12GB of RAM but makes no mention of the storage capacity. However, Royole did say the device will have UFS 3.0 storage.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-338586" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/FlexPai-2-specs.jpg?x10805" alt="FlexPai 2 specs" width="642" height="417" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/FlexPai-2-specs.jpg 642w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/FlexPai-2-specs-300x195.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px" /></p>
<p>The FlexPai 2 will have quad-rear cameras. The primary sensor is a 64MP camera and it comes along with a 16MP sensor, an 8MP sensor and a 32MP sensor. That is an impressive configuration and an upgrade from the 16MP + 20MP of the original FlexPai.</p>
<p>Royole has also increased the battery capacity to 4450mAh even though the screen size is still the same size as that of the predecessor. The leaker says the device has a thickness of 6.5mm (unfolded) and weighs 340 grams.</p>
<p>There are other details we do not know about yet but we expect Royole to announce the device soon.</p>

Although many accredited <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/samsung/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Samsung</a> for making the innovative step, it was actually <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/royole-flexpai/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Royole</a> that was the first to <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2018/12/14/flexpai-worlds-first-foldable-smartphone-will-be-the-first-to-ship-with-snapdraogn-855/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">launch a foldable smartphone</a>. And now, the company has just unveiled the Flexpai 2, the successor to the first smartphone with a flexible display.</p>
<p>Royole Flexpai 2 features the 3rd generation Cicada wing, which is basically a fancier term for the company&#8217;s flexible display panel. The latest iteration features various improvements over its predecessor and now has a smaller crease and bend radius. This also allows for an increase in brightness, contrast and offers a better viewing angle.</p>
<p>Under the hood, Royole Flexpai 2 houses Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon 865 SoC alongside the X55 5G modem. Its display is a 7.8 inch screen with a 4:3 ration when fully opened. It also features the latest LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.0 storage as well. Unfortunately, details regarding its battery capacity are still unknown, but that is to be expected since there is still time for the device officially launches.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-312593 size-full" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/gsmarena_006-1.jpg?x10805" alt="Royole Flexpai 2" width="727" height="484" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/gsmarena_006-1.jpg 727w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/gsmarena_006-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/gsmarena_006-1-696x463.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/gsmarena_006-1-631x420.jpg 631w" sizes="(max-width: 727px) 100vw, 727px" /></p>
<p>In the conference, Royole officials showcased the display, which was the highlighting part of the event. The improvements in technology was boasted, rightly so, and the panel has reportedly withstood 200,000+ bends without sustaining any damage. This new flexible panel features nearly 100 micro nanomaterials that improve the strain recovery and &#8220;layer peeling.&#8221; In other words, there are less chances of creases and bubbles forming when the device is unfolded.</p>

<p>According to Royole, the Flexpai 2&#8217;s new Cicada Wing will feature 1.3x better color gamut and 500x the contrast, thanks to its high quality LCD panel. The handset will also feature a unique custom designed display driver that is integrated in the circuit chip. On the other hand, the display panel can be folded in multiple directions and even rolled on its own, showcasing the advancements in the flexible display field.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-312591 size-full" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/gsmarena_001.gif?x10805" alt="Royole Flexpai" width="640" height="180" /></p>
<p>Royole Flexpai 2 was showcased in an event in China by CEO Bill Liu, who also announced the company&#8217;s partnership with another electronics brand, ZTE. This may be indicative of ZTE using Flexpai&#8217;s technology, integrating the display in its own foldable smartphone series. However, that is just speculation. Thus, take it with a grain of salt. The Flexpai 2 is expected to launch in Q2 of 2020, so stay tuned.</p>

A few months before Samsung, Royole <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2018/11/02/royole-flexpai-hands-on-video-appears-up-close-with-the-worlds-first-foldable-phone/">announced its foldable </a>smartphone and the company put it on pre-sale in December. The company today made it available for sale and it has been sold out in a very short period of time.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-250479" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/flexpai-576x1024.jpg?x10805" alt="royole flexpai" width="576" height="1024" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/flexpai-576x1024.jpg 576w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/flexpai-169x300.jpg 169w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/flexpai-236x420.jpg 236w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/flexpai.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px" /></p>
<p>Royole FlexPai is available in three variants of 6GB + 128GB, 8GB + 256GB, and 8GB + 512GB costing 8999 Yuan ($1337), 9998 Yuan ($1486) and 12999 Yuan ($1932) respectively.</p>
<p>It is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC with Adreno 640 GPU. Moreover, it hosts a 7.8 inch AMOLED HD display with a 1920 x 1440 resolution and a 4:3 aspect ratio.

<p>For connectivity, it comes with a dual SIM (nano only), storage expansion (256GB max), Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, and Wi-Fi. The FlexPai weighs 320g and measures 134 x 190.35 x 7.6 mm.</p>

A couple of months back, Royole Technology was an unknown company but it blasted into the scene with the unveiling of the first true foldable phone dubbed Royole Flexpai. The company even recently showcased the smartphone at CES 2019. While the company is yet to disclose when the Flexpai will become available, its achievement is about getting overshadowed by Xiaomi&#8217;s foldable phone that was outed recently. Even though there are reports that the phone is still a long way from going commercial, the company effectively took the shine off Royole&#8217;s Flexpai.<a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaom-vs-royole.png?x10805"><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-233859" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaom-vs-royole.png?x10805" alt="" width="591" height="347" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaom-vs-royole.png 591w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaom-vs-royole-300x176.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 591px) 100vw, 591px" /></a></p>
<p>That has apparently not gone down well with Royole as the company&#8217;s president recently took a swipe at Xiaomi&#8217;s own foldable model. The post didn&#8217;t directly mention Xiaomi but the content leaves no one in doubt that Xiaomi was being referred to. The company CEO shared a post by his VP which talked about the patented technology which the company has and how some companies are in the process of imitating its innovation. Obviously, Royole is aware that if Xiaomi goes head to head with it by launching a commercial model at the same time, it won&#8217;t survive the competition. The post apparently downplays Xiaomi&#8217;s ability to commercialize the concept foldable phone which it believes uses materials that may not be durable. <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaomi-foldable.jpg?x10805"><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-233858" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaomi-foldable.jpg?x10805" alt="" width="600" height="388" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaomi-foldable.jpg 600w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/xiaomi-foldable-300x194.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>

<p>Xiaomi was quick to respond, that the <span>Xiaomi double folding mobile phone is an innovative product independently developed by Xiaomi. </span><span>The company went on to state that the flexible folding screen of this phone is the result of joint development by Xiaomi and supply chain partners. The company was also irked by headlines touting Xiaomi to have unveiled the world&#8217;s first foldable phone. However, that was clarified in the official response that the double folding design is the first in the industry.</span></p>

After all, <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/royole">Royole</a>, a startup had managed to beat the South Korean giant Samsung in releasing the first commercial foldable smartphone in the market. Now, the company decided to showcase its best products at<a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/ces-2019"> CES 2019</a> and among them was a flexible rollable QWERTY keyboard.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Royole-flexible-rollable-keyboard.jpg?x10805"><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter  wp-image-231259" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Royole-flexible-rollable-keyboard.jpg?x10805" alt="Royole-flexible-rollable-keyboard" width="730" height="396" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Royole-flexible-rollable-keyboard.jpg 1163w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Royole-flexible-rollable-keyboard-300x163.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Royole-flexible-rollable-keyboard-768x417.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Royole-flexible-rollable-keyboard-1024x556.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px" /></a></p>
<p>The rollable QWERTY keyboard is basically a transparent and thin layer of a sheet that features full-fledged QWERTY keys. You just have to lay it out on a flat surface and connect to your device wirelessly via Bluetooth. After use, just push the button on the keyboard twice and it neatly rolls up into a compact form factor. The typing experience might not be as good as a regular keyboard but since its rollable, it&#8217;s extremely portable.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, no word on its pricing yet. All we know is that the keyboard will hit the markets sometime in Q2 2019 via Royole&#8217;s own site and sellers like Amazon.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.royole.com/static/img/sound_box.21761f1.png" /></p>
<p>Apart from this cool little keyboard, Royole also showcased their smart speaker with a built-in curved 7.8-inch display. You can watch movies, or see what&#8217;s being played on the speakers on the display. What&#8217;s even cooler is the fact that it will come with an 8MP pop-up camera which can rotate up to 180 degrees to take selfies or make video calls. You get Alexa and Google Assistant built-in which will also help you to control your smart home devices.</p>

However, a relatively unknown Chinese company called Royole shook the smartphone industry by <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2018/10/31/the-rouyu-flexpai-is-the-worlds-first-foldable-phone-and-it-starts-at-%c2%a58999-1290/">unveiling</a> a foldable smartphone commercial model in China days before Samsung displayed its own version at the developer conference in San Francisco. Now, the company has also officially listed the processor name on its website as the device goes on sale. Believe it or not, Flexpai is now the first Snapdragon 855-toting smartphone to go on sale. For more info on specifications, check out this link <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2018/11/01/complete-specifications-and-details-of-the-flexpai-foldable-smartphone/">here.</a></p>
<p>At launch, Royole refrained from naming the processor because the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 was not official at that point. However, it wasn&#8217;t a secret that it would have Snapdragon&#8217;s latest and greatest chipset because the GPU was known to be the Adreno 640. The FlexPai boasts a 7.8-inch flexible AMOLED panel with a 1920 x 1440 resolution and a 4:3 aspect ratio. It has a camera combo of 16MP + 20MP fueled by a battery of 3800mAh capacity.</p>

The phone which is called the FlexPai was unveiled at an event yesterday.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-220572" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai.jpg?x10805" alt="FlexPai" width="1200" height="775" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai.jpg 1200w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-300x194.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-768x496.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-1024x661.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /></p>
<p>We didn&#8217;t get the full specifications of the device yesterday. Thankfully, an official page for the device is now up on the manufacturer&#8217;s website and it has the full specifications and some other details.</p>
<p>The FlexPai has a display that measures 7.8-inches diagonally. It is an AMOLED panel with a 1920 x 1440 resolution and a 4:3 aspect ratio. Powering the device is Qualcomm&#8217;s next-gen Snapdragon 800 series processor which is clocked at 2.8GHz.</p>
<p>I guess they are trying not to explicitly call it the Snapdragon 855 or the Snapdragon 8150 until Qualcomm officially announces the chipset. Thanks to the FlexPai&#8217;s spec sheet, we know the processor will have an Adreno 640 GPU.</p>
<p>The spec page says the processor is paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. However, we know from yesterday&#8217;s launch that there is also a 6GB RAM + 128GB version and an 8GB RAM + 512GB version.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-220571" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-tent-mode.jpg?x10805" alt="FlexPai tent mode" width="1200" height="800" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-tent-mode.jpg 1200w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-tent-mode-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-tent-mode-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/FlexPai-tent-mode-1024x683.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /></p>
<p>The FlexPai has a 16MP + 20MP camera with a f/1.8 aperture size. The page doesn&#8217;t specify if that&#8217;s the aperture for both sensors or just the primary one. Although it does mention that there is optical image stabilization.</p>
<p>The device packs a 3,800mAh battery with support for 5V/5A fast charging via their proprietary Ro-Charge technology. It also has support for dual SIM (nano only), storage expansion (256GB max), Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, and Wi-Fi. Supported LTE bands are 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 12, 34, 38, 39, 40, and 41. There is a USB-C port for charging and audio.</p>
<p>The FlexPai weighs 320g and measures 134 x 190.35 x 7.6 mm. Royole says the phone will ship with the 5V/5A fast-charging adapter, a pair of USB_C headphones, a USB Type-C cable, a Type-C to 3.5mm cable, and a carrying case.</p>
