Samsung has released a foldable smartphone called the Galaxy Fold.

The Fold will go on sale in just over two months time. It's not the first foldable phone to be released but experts seem to be very excited by the news.

Samsung say the 'Galaxy Fold' opens up to create a 7.3in (18.5cm) tablet-like display.

The company has said that they designed a new type of hidden hinge system that would withstand hundreds of thousands of folds and unfolds, and have a battery on each side to extend battery life.
