First press render of Samsung's high-end flip phone (SM-W2018) leaked out

Samsung is readying not one, but two high-end Android smartphones for the second half of the year. The Galaxy Note 8 is expected to be unveiled on August 23, but another flagship meant to the Chinese market is likely to be introduced very soon, the so-called Samsung SM-W2018.

The sequel to the SM-W2017, the upcoming smartphone will feature a clamshell form factor, just like the predecessor. Less than a week ago, new details about the high-end phone surfaced again, which claimed the Samsung SM-W2018 would pack a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 64GB internal memory, and no less than 6GB RAM.

Also, the flip phone is expected to sport two 4.2-inch displays with full HD (1080p) resolution, as well as a 12-megapixel primary camera and a secondary 5-megapixel selfie snapper.

Today, the first press render showing the phone from all angles has just emerged. Samsung SM-W2018 has already been certified by TENAA (the Chinese regulatory agency) and FCC (Federal Communications Commission), but it's still unclear whether or not the smartphone will go on sale outside China.
