The new model looks to be a "clamshell-style" phone which folds from top to bottom, making it more handy and portable, unlike its revolutionary predecessor Galaxy Fold, which folds from right to left to offer a big-screen alternative.

Samsung will unveil the phone at a media event in San Francisco in February.

The global market for foldable handsets is expected to heat up. Motorola is set to launch its first foldable smartphone in January, and Huawei will also unveil its second foldable phone, the Mate Xs, in February.
