But even after that recent review reports of Samsung Fold
says that there are some display issues with the smartphone, the review unit’s
screen got malfunctioned after removing the topmost protective layer.
Samsung has spoken up and addressed the issue, they
said that “we will thoroughly inspect these unit”. The review unit developed a
bulge that appeared to be the result of something in between the screen and
hinge, and breaks the screen. According to Samsung the reviewers actually tried
to peel off the protective layer present on the smartphone that results into
the screen failure. Samsung’s full statement is here:
“A limited number of early Galaxy Fold samples were provide
to media for review. We have received a few reports regarding the main display
on the sample provided. We will thoroughly inspect these units in person to
determine the cause of the matter. Separately, a few reviewers reported having
removed the top layer of the display causing damage to the screen. The main
display on the Galaxy Fold features a top protective layer, which is part of
the display structure designed to protect the screen from unintended scratches.
Removing the protective layer or adding adhesives to the main display may cause
damage. We will ensure this information is clearly delivered to our customers.”
And now there is a news from Samsung Newsroom that the company has postponed the release date of Galaxy Fold i.e. it will not launch on 26th of April. In the coming weeks company will announce its new date of release.
