Samsung’s Galaxy Fold nightmare is soon coming to an end, as the company finally announced the official release date of the handset. The phone was supposed to ship to buyers in late April, but that never happened. Samsung canceled the launch and redesigned several key features of the phone to improve the durability of the foldable screen. Several early reviewers discovered that the display could be rendered useless with relative ease, either because of tiny debris that could make its way into the phone or because of user ignorance. It took Samsung several months to address the issues and test the redesigned phone, and the company is now ready to start selling it. Correct that; Samsung has to sell at least one Galaxy Fold phone in the coming weeks, to tick that achievement off its list. Years from now, it has to be able to tell the world with a somewhat straight face that it was one of the first major handset vendors to release a foldable phone.
