Samsung will hold a presentation of the Android smartphone flagship model "Galaxy S10" series in San Francisco on February 20 (US time).At the beginning of the presentation, the folding terminal "Galaxy Fold" appeared.
The new device of smartphones and tablet if you open it is expected to appear from each company, and is likely to be a trend in 2019.This time, there was no actual machine at the venue, and it could only be confirmed by the demonstration at the presentation, but the degree of perfection seems to be high.
Galaxy Fold is a slightly thicker smartphone at first glance.Due to the characteristics of folding, it is thicker than usual, but it looks like a smartphone.When the main unit is opened, there is also a display inside, which can be used as a tablet.The company says "product in a completely new category".
As a smartphone, it is equipped with a 4.6 -inch display, a general style with a display on the front and a camera on the back.The display is HD+resolution Super Amored, aspect ratio is quite vertical at 21: 9.As far as the actual machine is seen, the screen feels small for the main unit, not the Infinity Display, which has expanded the display to the last minute like the Galaxy S10 series.
When the main unit is opened, a tablet display is folded inside.The display size is 7.3 inches, so it is a compact category for a tablet.The display is the world's first Infinity Flex Display, and the resolution is a new Dynamic Amored, QXGA+.The aspect ratio is 4.2: 3.
If you use tablet mode, the original smartphone display will turn off and become part of the back.
The back color at the time of the smartphone is Space Silver, Cosmos Black, Martian Green, Astro Blue, which seems to be imagined in the universe.
In the tablet mode, it is equipped with a multi -active window function that can launch three apps at the same time.You can send a message while watching YouTube and watch the website in the browser at the same time.
In addition, the application used in one of the mode of smartphone mode and tablet mode is automatically displayed on that side even if you switch mode by folding.It seems that you can seamlessly perform videos in smartphone mode, switch to tablet mode when played and watch on a large screen.This area seems to be comfortable with a folding type.
The camera is finally equipped with six (!).The out camera located on the back in the smartphone mode is a triple camera, which seems to be equivalent to the Galaxy S10.The main is a 12MP sensor and a wide -angle lens, which allows you to switch between F1.5 and F2.4 by physical aperture.It also has a dual pixel AF.
The telephoto side is equipped with a 12MP sensor with a phase difference AF sensor.The F value of the lens is F2.4.In addition, there are 16MP sensors and cameras with ultra -wide -angle lenses.Each angle of view is not published, but if it is the same as Galaxy S10, it will be 77 degrees, 45 degrees, and 123 degrees.
In the tablet mode, the in -camera on the display side is a dual camera.It is a camera equipped with an F2.2 lens on the 10MP sensor, an RGB deep camera equipped with a 8MP sensor and an F1.9 lens, which is the same specifications as Galaxy S10+.In addition, the in -camera in smartphone mode is described as a "cover camera" and uses a 10MP sensor and F2.2 lens.
In other words, smartphone mode seems to use three out cameras, one in -camera, tablet mode uses three out cameras, and two in -camera.
The performance is also high -end specs, and the SoC is equipped with a 74 -bit octacore processor.Memory is 12GB and storage is 512GB.There are two batteries and a total of 4,380mAh.In addition to QC2.0 or AFC by wired, it also supports WPC/PMA compatible wireless charging.The OS is Android 9 (PIE).
The price starts at $ 1,980, and the release is from April 26.As described as "Luxury Device", it is developed as a high -end high -end smartphone and tablet.
Samsung IT & Mobile Communications部門のCEOであるDJ Koh氏は、スマートフォンのイノベーションはなくなり、市場も飽和している、という見解に対して、「それが間違いだと証明する」と胸を張り、Galaxy Foldという新ジャンルでの先進性をアピールしています。
It is a very expensive terminal that is nearly 220,000 yen when converted to Japanese yen.It will not be a terminal that meets the needs of beginners or "I want a smartphone and tablet".It seems to be a "hobby terminal" purchased by those who understand various things.In that sense, I would like to evaluate that it incorporates the same specifications as the latest high -end model, rather than reducing the specifications poorly.
Rather than ending with this generation, if you continue to brush up, it may be an interesting presence ...It was a terminal that made me think so.
