Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 shows off its style in new hands-on video

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 was introduced during Samsung’s recent Unpacked event though not with as many details as we’d like. Samsung is expected to detail pricing and the rest of the spec sheet on September 1 but in the meantime, we have a new hands-on video of the device which shows out some neat software tricks as well as its refined hardware.

We can’t help but notice the crease in the middle of the main display, though it could be the lighting that’s obscuring the view.

We can see Flex Mode in action in the split camera app which has the menus and toggles on the bottom half while the top is occupied solely by the viewfinder. We also get several glimpses of the 6.2-inch outside display as well as the toggles for the 120Hz display mode.
