The phone will be launched this Friday at selected Best Buy stores, AT&T outlets and Samsung Experience Stores. It will come in two versions, unlocked or with an AT&T plan, and will be available in two colors (black and silver).

The Galaxy Fold is a 4.6-inch smartphone that opens on a 7.3-inch tablet. The launch of the nearly $ 2,000 foldable phone was originally scheduled for last spring, but those plans were delayed after the reviewers' reports about the ease with which the device broke.

Samsung modified the design in July by strengthening the hinge area of ​​the phone and extended the top protective layer to make it more obvious for users that should not be removed. The company also added caps to protect the top and bottom of the phone hinge.

Notably absent from the launch is T-Mobile, which initially offered pre-orders in April, but had to give buyers refunds after Samsung discarded the launch. AT&T, owner of the parent company of CNN WarnerMedia, also canceled advance orders and offered customers a $ 100 gift card for the inconvenience.

The Fold will operate with Android 9. Samsung said it worked with Google and Android developers to "optimize hundreds of applications for the device."

Sherisse Pham of CNN Business contributed to this report.
