Samsung W20 (or the Galaxy Fold) set to launch on November 8 in China
Though the Samsung W20 5G should technically belong to the company’s flip-phone series of smartphones in China, the Wireless Power Consortium certification for the same mentions the device with the model number SM-W2020 to be the Galaxy Fold only. This could very well be the case as the Samsung clamshell phones also carry a pretty hefty price tag and the Galaxy Fold is no exception when it comes to the price.
It could also be possible that the Samsung W20 5G is the rebranded variant of the 5G variant of the Galaxy Fold as the LTE variant of the Galaxy Fold is also set to launch on November 8. The global variant of the Galaxy Fold, however, comes with the model number SM-F907F/B, so this is pretty confusing as of now.
All of this is not officially confirmed as of now, so we might as well take it all with a pinch of salt.
