South Korean tech giant Samsung is expected to launch its next foldable smartphone Galaxy Fold 2 with a 7.7-inch interior display and a 6.23-inch cover display on August 5.

According to South Korean news portal ETNews, it is likely that Samsung made such decision in order to differentiate Galaxy Fold 2 from Galaxy Fold, and listen to consumers who want bigger screens.

Both interior and exterior displays of the Galaxy Fold 2 are bigger than that of earlier Galaxy Fold.

Galaxy Fold that was released last year is made up of 7.3-inch interior display and 4.6 exterior display.

Interior and exterior displays of the Galaxy Fold 2 will be bigger by 0.4 inch and 1.63 inches, respectively.

The upcoming Galaxy Fold 2 is said to feature a 12MP primary sensor, a 64MP telephoto lens, and a 16MP ultra wide-angle lens.

The phone will have two camera sensors on the front side but they won't be placed together.

The current Galaxy Fold handset is priced at ₹1.65 lakh.

The company is planning to use a cheaper design for bringing down its price with just 256GB of internal storage, half of what the current Galaxy Fold offers at 512GB.
