Specifications

The Royole FlexPai ships with Android 9.0 "Pie".

The foldable smartphone runs features a single folding AMOLED display, comes with a 4,000 mAh and with a 16MP and 20MP dual-camera on its inner bezel. Aside from that, the phone also comes with a dual-SIM card setup, and features a fingerprint sensor.

Legacy

On December 2, 2019, Escobar Inc released what it called the Escobar Fold 1 smartphone featuring a flexible screen, which ended up being a rebadged Royole FlexPai. Escobar Inc is tied to various scams involving selling smartphones and flamethrowers with Escobar Inc branding without delivering the products to customers.

It was succeeded by the Royole FlexPai 2.
