It supports + HDR10 (a wide dynamic range of colors), supported by Netflix, among other things, and features a 120 Hz screen refresh rate, allowing for smoother viewing. At the heart of the smartphone is a Samsung chipset pulsed, along with 8 or 12 gigabytes of RAM, and 128 gigabytes for internal storage, along with a memory expansion option with a MicroSD card. It also comes with an in-screen fingerprint reader, fast charging, water and dust resistance of IP68 (up to half an hour and a half foot deep) and a 4,000 millimeter-hour battery.
The Plus version comes with the same specifications except for a 6.7-inch QHD + screen, and a different RAM: 8 or 12 gigabytes of RAM with 128 or 512 gigabytes of internal storage, and a 4,500 millimeter-hour battery. The two smartphones will share an identical photo array that includes: a 64-megapixel sensor with a f / 2.0 aperture key for challenging lighting conditions, a 12-megapixel camera with a 79-degree wide lens, and a 120-degree wide lens with a 12-megapixel sensor.

The second generation of the folding smartphone will arrive in mid-March
Samsung has also announced that the Flip will start selling in mid-March in Israel. Unlike the Fold deployed in the "Book" configuration, the Flip is deployed in the "Oyster" configuration, much like the old devices like the Motorola RAZR. It features a 6.7-inch, full-HD, glass-coated screen, which gives the feel of a traditional smartphone screen, rather than a plastic coating like Fold.
The outer screen is a 1.1-inch SuperAmoled, and will be used primarily for alert display. It also features a 12-megapixel rear-view camera with a 123-degree wide lens and a 10-megapixel front camera. At the heart of the smartphone is a Samsung chipset throbbing, with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. It also supports high-speed wireless charging and a 3,300-millimeter-hour battery.
