Samsung finally speaks: The Galaxy Fold is ready to launch (again)

The company may be confident, but it was apparently confident in the first launch too.

What you need to know

• Samsung is confident it has fixed the Galaxy Fold's fundamental flaws.
• Additional improvements in app optimization and software UX have also been made.
• Foldable phone will see a fresh retail launch in September in "select markets."

If you can imagine, I reviewed the Galaxy Fold three months ago. And then we all know what happened next; a slew of issues led to the indefinite delay of its launch. It's been effective radio silence from Samsung on the Galaxy Fold's whereabouts for three weeks, with little to go on in between. But now, Samsung finally speaks: the Galaxy Fold's issues have been fixed, it says, and it's ready to launch. Again.

Samsung has detailed the latest Galaxy Fold developments in a news release. It says that the Fold will be launched again in "select markets" in September, which means it will be coming after the upcoming Galaxy Note 10 launch.
