While the Galaxy Fold is expanding its availability
in more and more markets, the company is slowly approaching the launch of its
second foldable phone - the W20 5G.
Previous rumors suggested that we’d be getting a
clamshell foldable but a new press invite from China Telecom reveals that the
design is actually similar to the Galaxy Fold with an inward horizontal fold
instead. Some speculations even suggest that the W20 5G will just be a 5G
version of the Galaxy Fold. The poster also details that the W20 5G will be
unveiled on November 19 in Wuhan, China.
Judging from the teaser we see the W20 5G will bring
a triple back camera and will have the volume, power and fingerprint reader on
its right-hand-side just like the Galaxy Fold. We don’t have any official specs
but according to rumors, the phone could ship with the new Exynos 990 chip
which comes with an integrated 5G modem.
Samsung did tease a horizontally folding phone
towards the end of last month but it seems that it’s still not ready to hit
markets. Either way, we should be hearing more about the W20 5G in the days
leading up to the event so stay tuned to our news section.
