A Professional Manufacturer of Smart Interactive Screens For More Than 10 Years
Samsung postponed the release of its folding smartphone, a few days after several early reviewers said the screen on their device had broken.
The company said it delayed the release of the Galaxy Fold in order to "fully evaluate feedback and conduct further internal testing.
In April, several early reviewers discovered in just a few days that the display on the Galaxy Fold was broken.
Samsung has not yet revealed when the 1,800-pound phone will be available.
A new release date will be announced in the coming weeks.
Samsung said in a statement that it suspected that the damage suffered by some commenters was caused by "The impact on the exposed area at the top and bottom of the hinge.
It also said it found "substances" in a review device that might affect its performance ".
Launch activities to be held in Hong Kong and Shanghai this week have also been postponed.
Galaxy Fold will be released in the United States on April 26 and in the United Kingdom on May 3.
The South Korean tech giant says it is investigating what's wrong with the damaged censorship unit.
In some cases, the commenter has stripped a screen coating and mistaken it for a disposable screen protector.
"We will also strengthen guidance on the care and use of the display, including the protective layer," Samsung said in a statement . ".
Chinese rivals Huawei and Xiaomi are also developing foldable smartphones, but neither company has yet to announce a release date.
Technology reporter Chris Fox released a 1,800-pound mobile phone
Or $1,980 in the United States.
It should not be bought by the masses.
But the launch of the Galaxy Fold is designed to showcase Samsung's innovation and progress.
Think about gadget manufacturers and attract people to its stores.
Now, it gets a bit awkward and evokes memories of another bad product: the "exploding" Galaxy Note 7 smartphone.
Samsung has been racing to launch a folding device ahead of its Chinese rival Huawei, which has announced its phone, but has not yet asked reviewers to take it home.
Both manufacturers say their folding screens can be turned on and off more than 100,000 times without breaking, according to lab tests.
But in the real world, reviewers have destroyed Samsung's devices in less than 48 hours.
Maybe the Galaxy Fold takes longer in the test.
