At the Samsung Developer Conference yesterday, Samsung showed off a new vertical folding smartphone concept. This was quite different than the horizontal folding designs we have seen before, like on Galaxy Fold and the Mate X. The new design transforms a regular bar smartphone into a clamshell phone, allowing you to fold it in the middle, just like a flip phone. The teaser kind of confirms what we have in store for us in the coming months.

This is not the first time we are hearing about Samsung’s clamshell-type folding design. And if you recall, a few weeks back, a poster for the Samsung W20 5G (W2020) was spotted at an event, which revealed it would have a foldable design. The ‘W’ series is the company’s premium flip phone lineup that’s traditionally launched in China. But it looks like the update to the ‘W’ series will feature a foldable screen. An old report said that the phone will have a 6.7-inch foldable screen and the company will start sourcing components from November this year.

Another report reveals that Samsung will use two batteries inside the upcoming flip-type foldable. One will feature a capacity of 900mAh while there’ll be another one featuring a larger capacity of unknown size. Galaxyclub.nl adds that this two-battery design of unequal sizes would be ideal for a phone with a foldable design like the Motorola RAZR.

In case you missed, Motorola is likely to reveal its first foldable at the November event and it could feature a RAZR-like foldable design.
