Samsung has unveiled its highly anticipated Galaxy Fold smartphone device, which unfolds “like a book” from a smartphone into a tablet. According to Samsung, the Galaxy Fold, which will go on sale in two months, sits in its its own technology category – wavering between the two different devices. Unfolded, the device has a 7.3-inch size and functions as a tablet, however when folded in half it can be used as a regular touch-screen smartphone with a 4.6-inch screen.

It delivers a new kind of mobile experience allowing users to do things they couldn’t do with an ordinary smartphone.

Instead of bending like its more rounded concept design appeared to, the new device folds – described by Samsung as a more intuitive motion, and a more difficult innovation to deliver.

The design features a hinging mechanism with multiple interlocking gears, concealed within a hidden enclosure to create a “seamless” look. This system allows the device to open “like a book” and close flat with a satisfying click.
