三星（Samsung）新款Galaxy Fold智能手機將在4月26日上市，售價1,980美元。

在周三于舊金山舉行的Samsung Galaxy Unpacked發布會上，這家消費電子品巨頭公布了該款智能手機的售價和起售日期。

三星的產品營銷高級副總裁賈斯汀·丹尼森解釋稱，這款智能手機配有兩款不同的顯示屏。4.6英寸的小屏幕位于設備正面，與傳統智能手機相同。用戶可以把手機像書本一樣打開，從而看到第二塊7.3英寸的屏幕，它擁有“無限折疊屏”（Infinity Flex Display）技術，可以和設備一起折疊。

這款Galaxy Fold有四種顏色可供選擇：夜霧銀、量子黑、魔幻綠和星際藍。

丹尼森表示公司設計了一個不可見的“復雜鉸鏈系統”，可以承受超過10萬次折疊的磨損。

人們通過設備正面的小屏幕調取應用后，也可以打開設備利用大屏幕使用應用。

Samsung’s new Galaxy Fold Smartphone will be available to buy on April 26 and will cost $1,980.

The consumer electronics giant revealed the smartphone’s price and availability on Wednesday in San Francisco during the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event.

The smartphone contains two different display screens, explained Samsung senior vice president of product marketing Justin Denison. The smaller 4.6-inch screen is affixed to the front of the device like a conventional smartphone. People can unfold the phone like a book to access the second 7.3-inch display screen with so-called ‘Infinity Flex Display‘ that lets it fold with the device.

The Galaxy Fold Smartphone will be available in four different colors: black, silver, green, and blue.

Denison said that the company designed a “sophisticated hinge system” that’s hidden from view and can withstand the wear-and-tear of more than 100,000 folds.

When people access apps via the smaller screen on the front of the device, they can open the device to interact with the app via the larger screen.

丹尼森稱，用戶可以在大屏幕上同時使用三個應用，實現同時觀看YouTube視頻、與朋友發消息和搜索谷歌這樣的操作。

他介紹道，這款手機擁有12GB內存和512GB存儲空間。

Galaxy Fold還配有兩塊電池，在設備打開時分處兩側。丹尼森表示，兩塊電池充當一個電源。不過他沒有透露Galaxy Fold的續航時間。

丹尼斯稱，這款智能手機還有六個攝像頭，三個位于設備背面，兩個位于設備里，一個位于設備正面。他說，這有利于攝影，因為“無論手機處于折疊還是打開狀態，都隨時可以捕捉你想要的瞬間”。

技術分析師一直在關注三星透露的關于新款Galaxy Fold的信息，因為它代表了蘋果推出最初版iPhone以來智能手機領域最重大的設計變革。三星希望憑借Galaxy Fold吸引消費者，因為它能在一臺設備上同時實現智能手機和平板電腦的功能，又比所謂的平板手機要輕便很多，后者本質上是超大尺寸的智能手機。

People will also be able to use three apps simultaneously on the larger screen, letting them do feats like watching YouTube videos, texting with friends, and searching Google at the same time, Denison said.

The device will come with 12 GB of ram and 512 GB of storage, the executive said.

The Galaxy Fold also comes with two batteries, embedded on each side of the phone when the device is unfolded. The two batteries act as one power source, Denison said. He did not say how long the batteries power the Galaxy Fold.

The smartphone also has six cameras—three on the back of the device, two on the inside, and one on the front, Denison said. This is supposed to be good for taking pictures because “the phone will always be ready to capture the moment no matter how you flip it or hold it,” he said.

Technology analysts have been following Samsung’s reveal of the new Galaxy Fold because it represents one of the most significant design changes for smartphones since the introduction of Apple’s original iPhone. Samsung is hoping that consumers will be drawn to the Galaxy Fold because it would let people access both a smartphone and tablet in one package that’s less bulky than so-called phablets that are essentially oversized smartphones.

It remains to be seen whether people will find the nearly $2,000 price tag for the Galaxy Fold an attractive price.
