Galaxy Z Fold2 5G: The do everything phone
Folded it's a phone — unfolded it's a tablet: From the work-from-home parent to entrepreneurial creator to the entertainment connoisseur, the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G gives you the flexibility to balance your life, work, family and everything in between. The phone is designed around a groundbreaking foldable ultra-thin glass that allows you to flip from a tablet to a phone with ease. A precision-crafted Hideaway Hinge lets you play with angles and navigate settings with Flex Mode, then sit back and enjoy your favorite shows on its huge 7.6” display2.
5G Built Right: The Galaxy Z Fold2 5G connects to Verizon’s lightning-fast 5G Ultra Wideband network, where available. 5G Ultra Wideband allows you to game with ultra-low lag, download HD videos rapidly and upload photos and videos to your favorite content-sharing platform at incredible speeds. Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband service is currently available in parts of 36 cities with more being rolled out throughout 2020.
Productivity: The front of the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G sports a gorgeous 6.2” edge-to-edge display that makes it easy to check your email, send texts and peruse your favorite social networks. When you need more room to edit a document, play a game or shoot a video, simply open the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G and you’re greeted by a massive 7.6” Infinity-O display that gives you the real estate you need to get the job done. App continuity lets you transition directly to the app you were using on the front screen3. What’s more? You can effortlessly multitask with up to three apps open simultaneously and wirelessly share your work to a larger screen using DeX4.
Entertainment: You also get tons of options to watch your favorite movies and videos. Who needs a kickstand? Unfold the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G slightly and rest on a surface to use the Cover Screen to watch TV while you’re cooking dinner. Open it up to watch movies in full-screen glory or fold it 90-degrees and watch YouTube on the top half of the screen while chatting with your friends on the bottom half.
Gaming: Cutting-edge performance, long-lasting battery life and an expansive 120Hz refresh rate main display make Galaxy Z Fold2 5G the perfect addition to any gamer's arsenal. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus processor and impressive 12GB LPDDR5 RAM give you fast and powerful performance for fluid multitasking and gaming with little lag, especially when on Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband — and 256GB internal storage5 gives you the space to hold it all. Plus, you can play your favorite games on both the front and inside display.
Creativity: Share moments from new perspectives. Set Galaxy Z Fold2 5G open on a surface to take pictures and shoot videos from virtually any angle with the phone’s hands-free folding capability. It includes three rear cameras to inspire plenty of creativity, including a 12MP Wide lens, a 12MP UltraWide lens and a 12MP Telephoto lens. Flex Mode allows for hands-free photos and videos on the 10MP Selfie lens, and delivers a new way to experience select apps by using both halves of the large display to chat, record, browse, edit, and more.
