What draws people here? That screen. When you open it up—which takes some serious hinge engineering, by the way, they used a “dual rail structure” with two different sized hinges—you get a massive 10-inch QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X di splay. That’s a tablet in your pocket, or nothing.
Jotting down the screen details:
-
Main Screen: 10 inches, 1120 \text{Hz}refresh rate, 21,600\text{nits} peak brightness.3
-
Cover Screen: 46.5\text{-inch} Full HD+ AMOLED.5 Punchy, too. This one hits a peak of 2,600\ \text{nits}.
They’re protecting it with Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 on the front.6 On the back, it’s Ceramic-Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer. They’re trying to keep this monster together, obviously. And it has an IP48 rating—so water-resistant, but not fully dust-tight.7
The Engine and the Camera Overkill
Under the hood, they went all-out. It’s got that Snapdragon 8 Elite processor—the same fire they put in their other flagships. It’s paired with a huge 816\ \text{GB} of RAM, and you can get up to 91\ \text{TB} of storage.10 Pure power.
And the cameras? This is where it gets wild.
-
Main Shooter: 11200\ \text{MP} with OIS.12 That happened. The S-series camera setup made it to the foldable.
-
Ultrawide: 1312\ \text{MP}.14
-
Telephoto: 1510\ \text{MP} with 163\text{x} optical zoom.17
-
Selfies: 1810\ \text{MP} on the cover and 1910\ \text{MP} on the main display.20
Powering all this is a 215,600\ \text{mAh}battery.22 That’s a huge capacity for a folder. It supports 2345\ \text{W} wired charging.24 Samsung claims 250 to 2650\% in just 2730 minutes.28 Which, for a battery that size, is pretty quick.
It runs on One UI 8, based on Android 16. And here’s the kicker for anyone dropping this kind of cash: they are promising seven years of OS updates and security patches.29 That’s commitment.
Price and Availability
The price is… substantial. The 30512\ \text{GB} variant is priced at 313,594,000 won.32 That roughly translates to text{₹}2,19,000. It’s expensive, let’s be real.
It will hit the shelves in Korea on December 12. And then it starts rolling out to markets like China, Taiwan, Singapore, and the UAE.33 No word on the exact date for wider global markets, but the launch is moving fast. The folding wars? They are officially ongoing.
End…
