We have previously reported that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 (SM-F9160) is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, a 12GB RAM, a 256 GB or a 512 GB storage, etc. As for the screens, there will be a 7.7-inch built-in Infinity-O screen supporting UTG (ultra-thin glass) and a 6.23-inch outside screen. Under the hood, we will also find a 4365mAh battery (2090mAh + 2275mAh), supporting 25W fast charging. Of course, it will support 5G network. The camera includes rear 64-megapixel telephoto and 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensors, and a front 12-megapixel selfie camera.

What About Other Products At The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Event?

Apart from the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, there should be other models as well. Say, we have heard the Samsung Galaxy Note 20, the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, the Samsung Galaxy buds Live TWS and new tablets will be released as well. Among them, the most eye-catching model is the Note 20 Ultra.

The Note 20 Ultra will retain S20 Ultra’s camera. Of course, this might not be a big surprise. After all, the S20 Ultra undoubtedly has its 108MP as the main selling point. For that reason, even the first rumors were assuming the presence of the very same sensor on the Note 20 Ultra. However, Quandt states that he’s “seen hard evidence” of the presence of a 108MP camera on this smartphone. Given to the tipster’s good track record, the Note 20 Ultra is likely arriving with this sensor.

Initially, it’s been assumed the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G will come at this event as well. But today, the company issued an official statement and said we will mee this new folding screen smartphone tomorrow, on July 22. Honestly, it’s smart move because if two folding screen smartphones are announced at the same event, they would overshadow each other.
