Chinese phone-maker Royole gave us a sneak peek of what to expect from its second foldable phone, the FlexPai 2, claiming it’ll deliver “significant improvements in every possible way.” The new handset will have a 7.8-inch screen, the newest Snapdragon 865 chipset, a Kyro 585 processor, high-speed LPDDR5 RAM, and 5G capability for nine different bands covering regions including the US, Europe and China, according to Bill Liu, CEO of Royole.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Along with a new “wearproof” and “mechanically robust” hinge called the “super seamless and stepless hinge,” which runs along the back of the device, the FlexPai 2 will also feature a “thinner and lighter” design than the Royole Flexpai<\/span>, Liu said. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The specs were revealed on Tuesday at an event focused on the announcement of its third-gen Cicada Wing display. Royole’s new flexible screen will first make an appearance on the FlexPai 2 but could potentially be used by\u00a0other manufacturers such as ZTE<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Royole put itself on the map at\u00a0CES 2019<\/span>, when it became one of the world’s first companies to release a foldable phone, beating both Samsung and Huawei to the punch with its FlexPai<\/span>. The original FlexPai has a bendable 7.8-inch AMOLED screen made of flexible plastic and a 1440p resolution. It folds open and closed like a book. But it also suffers from a clunky, prototype-like design and an unimpressive user interface.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since its launch, the FlexPai has mostly been forgotten. Foldable phone rivals such as the\u00a0Motorola Razr<\/span>, Samsung Galaxy Fold<\/span>\u00a0and Z-Flip phones<\/span> and the\u00a0Huawei Mate XS<\/span>\u00a0were quickly launched, packing superior performance, features and design.<\/p>\n

The FlexPai 2 won’t be officially unveiled until next quarter, Royole said.<\/p>\n
