There have been a couple of small Galaxy Fold 2 leaks lately, but today we're getting a big leak that spills several details on the displays of Samsung's next foldable.
The inner display of the Galaxy Fold 2 will be a 7.59-inch 2213x1689 screen with 120Hz refresh rate, up from the 7.3-inch 2152x1536 display of the original Galaxy Fold. That's according to Ross Young, founder and CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants, who adds that the screen will use LTPO backplane tech and have a hole-punch for the selfie camera.
Meanwhile, the front screen is said to be a 6.23-inch 2267x819 display with 60Hz refresh rate and hole-punch. That's a massive upgrade from the 4.6-inch 1680x720 outer display of the original Galaxy Fold.
Young also notes that the Galaxy Fold 2 will have an S Pen stylus and Ultra Thin Glass with cover film on the cover window.

Just going by this leaked display info, the Galaxy Fold 2 could be a big upgrade from the original model. The inner display is only slightly larger, but the move to a hole-punch will give you more usable screen compared to the big notch that the original Galaxy Fold used for its inner cameras. And the outer display growing nearly two inches should make it much better to use for those times you don't want to get something done quick without opening the main display.
The addition of an S Pen would also be big. We normally only see the S Pen on Samsung's Galaxy Note phones, but the 7.7-inch inner display of the Fold 2 is a large screen that could be great for drawing or taking notes with a stylus.
