Main (inner) display—7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X; 2160 × 1856 (QXGA+), 374 ppi; 1–120 Hz

The folding inner screen has a crease along the hinge line in the middle; this comes from how foldable displays are built.

Samsung
Cover (outer) display—6.3-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X; 2376 × 968 (HD+); 1–120 Hz

The outer screen is narrow and tall; with the phone closed it is used like a regular smartphone.

The peak figure is the manufacturer’s maximum for a small part of the screen over a short time.

Samsung
Front cameras—4 MP under-display camera on the inner screen (f/1.8); 10 MP on the cover screen (f/2.2)

The under-display camera keeps the inner screen uninterrupted; its resolution is lower than the cover camera’s.

Samsung
