Anyone else nervous that there hasn't been a Fold event?

[alanjc]

According to a Verge interview with Kate Beaumont (director of product, services, and commercial strategy at Samsung UK), Samsung was supposed to have a full press event for the Fold in early April.

I wonder whether there have been some issues which have meant there are delays?

I registered for more info on the Samsung site and haven't heard anything, and I search for stories quite often, but it doesn't seem like there's been anything official since February other than a few country specific carriers which will be selling the phones.

Definitely missed the "early April" slot anyway.

Nervous? No, it really doesn't matter to me. But I do believe they are still struggling to get this thing somewhat presentable.

I feel it will be in people's hand in May
Just wondering if there will be 2 variants 4G & 5G

Good question, since current 5G devices are permanently tied to a carrier.

It won't be available at launch with 5g.

T-mobile says "Samsung Galaxy Fold is coming to the Un-carrier online on April 25th at 9 PM PT and in select T-Mobile stores on April 26th."

Preorders start tomorrow! I haven't decided if I'm going to get the Galaxy Fold or the S10 5G.

Yes, that's what I read too.
