Samsung Galaxy Fold is a new Galaxy Note 7. The delayed smartphone, the premiere has been canceled

Galaxy Fold is the first folding Samsung smartphone in which the screen bends. It's a great premiere and big expectations. We now know that it is also a great image catastrophe.

Galaxy Fold has not yet reached its customers. They were able to order it in advance, but they still have to wait for their purchases. And they will wait ... It turned out that only a handful of Samsung Galaxy Folders sent to the reviewers was enough to make it come to light that costing 2000 dollars. the equipment is unfinished and what is its special mark - a folding screen - fails in it .

On the reviewer's copies there was no information that the film on the Folda screen, which looks the same as the protective film, for example on the Galaxy S10 screen, is an integral part of the display and can not be removed. The reviewers began to take it off, and Samsung Galaxy Fold began to break. The photo of the film damages the screens, and Samsung forgot to inform the users accordingly. We now know that the company has promised to rectify its mistake and ensures that there are warnings on the copies that will reach customers.

However, this is not the end of problems. Samsung admitted that he knows the cases in which the reviewers did not move the film, and the screens were damaged anyway. In the official position of the company, we can read that the bending place is vulnerable to damage especially in the lower and upper parts. From the message it can be concluded that the engineers and designers did not adequately protect the edges of the hinges and allow them to get inside the mechanism of elements dangerous for the screen. I'm guessing that they can be sand grains or some ferns we have in pockets, backpacks or bags. These objects fall into Fold and when opening and closing the screen can damage it from the inside.

Initial conclusions from the analysis of screen reports indicate that the cause of the problem may be the forces acting on the upper and lower elements of the hinge, which are exposed, and which allow to obtain the shape of the device. There was also a case in which substances found inside the device affected the behavior of the screen - we read in the manufacturer's statement .

Samsung has to redesign the hinge components, introduce effective protection, and then carry out the appropriate tests before the phone goes on sale.

Galaxy Fold is the new Galaxy Note 7

In 2016, Samsung experienced a huge crisis. The batteries in the Galaxy Note 7 were damaged and there were explosions and ignitions of smartphones. Samsung quickly withdrew the device from the sale and introduced a revised version ensuring that everything was OK now. There was no.

Joy lasted for a short time. Customers who got new versions of the phone also experienced the same problems. Samsung gave up and withdrew Note 7 from sale forever. It was only after some time that smaller cells were inserted into the smartphones and released into several markets as limited versions of the 7 FE (Fan Edition) for suicide fans of the brand.

The Note'em 7 affair pissed me off. I wrote then :

I'm tired of treating clients like guinea pigs! I'm tired of getting operating systems, applications, games and programs in beta, which reach us in the form of supposedly stable releases! I am sick of the fact that the new equipment often requires performing a series of updates right out of the box! I'm tired of recall action.

Hardware manufacturers are taking advantage of the fact that they can update the devices already sold at any time. Sell ​​sells, unfinished computers, software that is not in the final version, and then temporarily extinguish fires.

I am fed up with the fact that before each update of a smartphone or computer I am genuinely afraid that this one will not start or will start, but the functions important for me will not work. Such bugs happen to almost all major players - Apple, Microsoft, Google etc.

And what? And nothing. Eggs with Fold are the best proof that nothing has changed since then.

Samsung Galaxy Fold has a construction error that threatens its correct operation. The company again did not carry out appropriate tests before launching the most expensive product in its offer.

And although Samsung boasts that the robot can fold and open Folda 200 thousand. times, it has been forgotten that customers will be people, however. We would not have found out about the problems discovered by the reviewers, if not for the fact that Samsung wanted to show off its product and send it to the media representatives earlier.

Well, he praised it. Bravo.

The company has just announced that it gives itself a few weeks to set a new release date.

PS In my opinion, the scandal with Note 7 revealed that Samsung's testing and quality control department is not able to withstand the pace requiring the release of two top series of smartphones per year - Galaxy S and Galaxy Note. Now, Samsung wanted to prove that he did his homework and will release the top three series annually. I'm afraid he just showed us what cost it would be.
