Samsung'south upcoming W2020 flip phone is nearing its debut, at least judging past the fact that it went through the formality of getting approved by the Wi-Fi Alliance late last calendar week before MySmartPrice picked up the story. The SM-W2020 should be a direct successor to the SM-W2019 introduced terminal year, and unsurprisingly, the upcoming model is expected to boast various flagship-grade specifications.

As it's customary, the Wi-Fi Brotherhood didn't reveal a lot about the device, other than it runs Android ix. We've exclusively reported about a calendar week ago that Samsung's upcoming SM-W2020 flip phone will be equipped with 512GB of internal storage on the base model, like the Milky way Fold. It could as well accept the same UFS 3.0 storage and the newer F2FS file organisation simply similar the Note 10 series and the Galaxy Tab S6 do, which should contribute to better performance.

Chances of information technology having a foldable display are shut to none

An unconfirmed rumor, which was largely based on an obscure promotional paradigm, claimed not long ago that the SM-W2020 will have a foldable/flexible display on the within, similar to the Galaxy Fold, at least equally far as the display tech under the hood is concerned. In reality, there'due south non enough evidence to support this claim and, until proven otherwise, we don't believe it to be true. Samsung's next foldable phone could have a clamshell design but, even so, it shouldn't interfere with the visitor'due south existing flip phone serial; at to the lowest degree not for now.

The SM-W2020 is expected to have two 4.2-inch Full HD Super AMOLED displays facing opposite directions. Each panel should have a resolution of at to the lowest degree 1920 by 1080 pixels. Every bit to when the Samsung SM-W2020 will exist unveiled, this could happen in just a couple of months if we assume that the device is scheduled for release one yr subsequently the SM-W2019's debut. Availability volition likely exist restricted to a handful of markets in Asia, merely similar it's always been for Samsung flip smartphone models, merely the device could somewhen crop upwards in the lists of some third-political party online retailers.
