What are the whispers?

Unlike the S-shaped In & Out-foldable introduced by Huawei earlier, it is said that Samsung are preparing an In-Folding type G product that folds the inside of the screen twice.

AS per the latest leak from 9to5 Google, the tri-fold will allegedly have its sneak peek at the launch of Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 on July 9, in New York.

No hush hush. Samsung is keeping sealed lips.

While it sounds interesting to finally see or have a sneak peek of the rumoured tri-fold device, it is better to take it with a pinch of salt because unlike other teased device very few details are known about it, except the fact that it might be called “Galaxy G Fold”.

How does it fair against its only competitor Huawei Mate XT?

Taking its cue from the case of Huawei’s Mate XT where the screen was found to be damaged immediately after release, Samsung plans to focus on the finish by choosing a G-type form factor that is advantageous for durability.

It is rumoured that the alleged G Fold have would feature a maxed out 10-inch display when unfolded and feature a slightly thicker build when compared to Huawei's tri-fold Mate XT.

The external display on the other hand, is tipped to be a 6.49 inch panel, larger than the Mate XT. However, it is likely that the upcoming tri-fold phone won’t be S Pen-friendly as the handset is expected not to feature the digitizer.

No details about its other hardware components like - camera, processor, ram and rom are out yet. Keep your eyes on Pricekeeda, for all upcoming mobile and tech in the world.
