While rumors earlier have it that it will be called Galaxy X or Galaxy F, Samsung did not officially reveal its name.

As of now we don’t really know much as Samsung did not fully demonstrate its features and the phone was presented in darkness limiting the glimpse into all its glory.

Samsung is facing tough competition to deliver its foldable smartphone, with Royale Corporation, a California-based tech company, unveiling its own foldable smartphone in Beijing last week.

When You Can Buy It

Samsung says it plans to go into mass production for just the display in the “matter of months”. The phone is expected to hit the market next year, 2019. It is expected to cost around $2000 (NGN 729,000).
