Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 could pack the Galaxy S20's best camera feature

The original Samsung Galaxy Fold has decent camera hardware but a fairly modest number of megapixels in its snappers. For the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2, though, it looks like the number of megapixels could be substantially increased.

According to Ross Young (a display industry analyst) the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 will have a triple-lens camera with 12MP, 16MP and 64MP sensors. That’s up from 12MP, 12MP and 16MP on the original Samsung Galaxy Fold.

He doesn’t specify what each sensor’s role is, but it’s likely that along with a main sensor there’s a telephoto one and an ultra-wide one, just like on the original Galaxy Fold. And we can further guess that the arrangement will be similar to the Samsung Galaxy S20, which has a 64MP telephoto sensor, allowing for 3x lossless and 30x digital zoom.

Young adds that the camera will have dual optical image stabilization, and in a separate tweet says that the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 will cost between $1,780 - $1,980, but that he expects the price to be in the middle of those two figures at around $1,880 (roughly £1,510 / AU$2,900).

That would make the phone around $100 cheaper than the original Samsung Galaxy Fold was at launch, despite the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 apparently having bigger, better screens, a higher resolution camera, an S-Pen stylus, and 5G.

Young isn’t someone we’ve seen a lot of leaks from, so we’d take these claims with a pinch of salt, but he is a respected analyst, and this isn’t the first information he’s provided on the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2. A week earlier he also detailed the screen specs, claiming, among other things, that the Fold 2 has a 7.59-inch 2213 x 1689 main display with a 120Hz refresh rate.

We might not know whether he’s right or not for a while, as the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 probably won’t land until August, when it’s likely to launch alongside the Samsung Galaxy Note 20,

iOS 14 update release date, devices and everything you need to know

Tracking the iOS 14 update as news trickles in It may feel like iOS 13 only debuted yesterday, but that came out in September 2019 and we're set to get iOS 14 by the end of this year. The next big update for your iPhone is currently just rumored for now - Apple has yet to specifically confirm the name for the next piece of software - but it's very likely we'll be hearing officially about it soon. And given what was left out with iOS 13 and what new technology could be coming in the iPhone 12 we can make some educated guesses about what’s coming in the next big iOS update. Some of these are obvious, like support for 5G should Apple finally decide to release a 5G iPhone that works with the next-gen phone networks. If there's somehow an Apple foldable, well, iOS 14 will have software to make that work, too. Other iOS 14 features take a little bit of speculative leaps to imagine which tweaks Apple might make in its continual improvements on its iPhone operating system.

Save the Nature

Save the Nature Nature is the creation of Allah, who is Almighty of all and everything. I think every living being in this world cannot live without nature. So, when need to protect it, we started damaging it with our factories, nuclear waste, plastic and especially by developing big metropolitan cities on the land of forests without planting new trees. We have destroyed our forests and green lands which were necessary for our atmosphere and are the important part of our Eco system, to protect us from dangerous heatwaves from the sun, to maintain the balance, to protect the animal Eco system, which we have tried to end with our thirst for power. We had put many of the species on the brink of extinction. As a god’s Favorite creation we were assigned the task to maintain the balance among every living being on this planet which is also very necessary for our lives. But due to our cruel thinking and nature we have destroyed it with our own hands. We are racing aga
