Yes, the reports about Samsung delaying the launch of the Galaxy Fold were indeed true. The Korean giant has officially confirmed that it’s pushing back the release of its foldable smartphone, the Galaxy Fold, to investigate the issue that may have led to the screen on the review units sent out by them to break or stop working.

Apart from the hinge, Samsung adds that certain substances found inside their foldable smartphone could have affected the performance. Well, I don’t really want to see Galaxy Fold fail since it’s certainly a cool piece of technology and start of a new device category, but this observation only further confirms our fear of moving mechanical parts and how even specks of dust could affect their use.
