NEW YORK -- Samsung Electronics will bring its first foldable smartphone to American consumers this Friday after months of delays.

The Galaxy Fold is a 7.3-inch tablet that can fold into a 4.6-inch smartphone to fit in a pocket. Priced around $2,000, it launched in South Korea earlier this month. Samsung announced the U.S. launch date Monday.
