Samsung's new entry into the smartphone game might have a single big screen that can then be folded in half.

Rumours have been swirling that the company's new product is going to have this innovative technology because of a leak from someone connected to Samsung in China. The new phone, if it ever drops, is expected to have one big display, rather than two different screens side by side, that can be folded in half.

There's no news about when the phone's going to come out, although it is rumoured that it could be released exclusively in South Korea.

Samsung have been working with this technology for ages.

The first look at this folding screen came in 2008, when Samsung showed a short film of a folding display at an event for showcasing new technologies. Then, last year, they released this advert for a tablet than can be folded away into a phone. So are we finally about to see it?
