Samsung has reportedly fixed the Galaxy Fold

The phone is said to have a clearer display and a protective film that stretches more than before

Ever since the fiasco at the Galaxy Fold’s launch, Samsung has redesigned it keeping in mind the screen durability issues raised, according to Bloomberg’s report. A release date still has not been disclosed and a source told Bloomberg it’s doubtful that the phone will be revealed at the Galaxy Note 10 event next month.

The screen’s protective film will supposedly “flow into the bezels so it would be impossible to peel off by hand.” Review units shipped previously with a film that is similar to a removable screen protector, but reviewers have found that removing it ruins the screen.



The Verge’s unit faced another problem, developing an unfamiliar bulge that eventually destroyed the OLED panel. It’s uncertain if the new design will address this issue although it is said to have other improved features, such as a clear display and a protective film that stretches more than before.

The Bloomberg report suggests that the Galaxy Fold should be released again this year. One thing is for certain, it will be heavily inspected when it does come out.
