Loyol's Second Foldable Phone 'FlexPie2' Unveiled

[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] Chinese smartphone manufacturer Royole has unveiled its second foldable phone, the 'FlexPai 2.'

On the 25th (local time), Royole announced that it will release the foldable phone 'FlexPai 2' equipped with its self-developed 'Fully Flexible Display (FFD)' in the second quarter. Royole first revealed the original FlexPai at CES in January 2019 and has now introduced its next foldable phone after one year and two months.

The FFD can bend to a minimum radius of 1mm when folding the screen. The more flexible the material, the smaller the bending radius. Bill Liu, CEO and co-founder of Royole, explained, "Even after more than 200,000 folds, it provides the smoothest folding experience," adding, "The performance and design of the FlexPai 2 have been enhanced by adopting cutting-edge computing, memory, and materials." The viewing angle, brightness, and contrast ratio have been improved compared to the previous model, and a more durable hinge has been applied.

The FlexPai 2 is an out-folding foldable phone supporting a 7.8-inch display. The Galaxy Fold uses an in-folding design, while Huawei's Mate series employs an out-folding method. It is equipped with a Snapdragon 865 chipset and is expected to support 5G. The RAM supports LPDDR5, and the storage supports UFS 3.0, although details may change at the time of release.

Royole has formed a partnership with ZTE. ZTE announced that it will launch products equipped with Royole's FFD. Royole stated, "We will collaborate to promote the popularization of FFD in various fields such as smart devices in the 5G era."
