The Mate X August release may beat Galaxy Fold to the punch
Samsung is gearing up for the final release date of the Galaxy Fold, after the few preview specimens it sent out to tech reviewers and assorted “influencers” were either abused or exhibited strange display artifacts. Korean media reported recently that it has actually managed to solve the two glaring problems that emerged during the real-life operation of the Fold – the top layer looking like a screen protector, and the peeling on the crease edges..
This jibes in with the report that the White House administration will be relaxing the bans it imposed on Huawei suppliers before the mid-August deadline, so we might very well see Huawei launch the world’s first mass-produced foldable phone before Samsung.
