Samsung quits updating Galaxy Z Fold 2 that came out in 2020 for $2,000
Newer Samsung Galaxy phones are promised seven years of updates.
Samsung is no longer providing software or security updates for the Galaxy Z Fold 2 foldable smartphone that it released in September 2020.
Highly anticipated ahead of its full unveiling, the Z Fold 2 released with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865+, 12GB of RAM, 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4500 mAh battery. The phone’s hallmark is, of course, a foldable 7.6-inch OLED screen with 2208×1768 pixels running at a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. Surpassing its predecessor, the Fold 2’s outside screen is 6.2 inches (2260×816 pixels), compared to the Fold 1’s 4.6 inches. The Fold 2 also introduced under-screen cameras to Samsung devices.
With the Fold 1 having serious durability problems, the Fold 2 represented another chance for Samsung. And Samsung continued with the line in 2021 in the form of the cheaper ($1,800 upon release) Galaxy Z Fold 3. Samsung is now up to its sixth iteration of the Galaxy Z Fold, which came out in July for $1,900.
