Samsung unveiled a highly anticipated smartphone with a foldable screen.

 

三星发布一款备受期待的折叠屏手机。
 

 

But it's far from clear that consumers will embrace a device that retails¹ for almost $2,000, or that it will provide the creative catalyst² the smartphone market needs.

 

The Galaxy³ Fold, announced Wednesday in San Francisco, will sell for $1,980 when it is released April 26.

 

Consumers willing to pay that hefty price will get a device that can unfold like a wallet. It can work like a traditional smartphone with a 4.6 inch screen or morph into something more like a mini-tablet with a 7.3 inch screen.

 

When fully⁴ unfolded, the device will be able to simultaneously⁵ run three different apps on the screen. The Galaxy Fold will also boast six cameras: three in the back, two on the inside and one on the front.
