Thanks to Andriod Authority, you won’t have to wait until the launch to get a peek. Animations found in the build intended for NFC positioning have spilled the beans, giving everyone an early look at how this foldable contortionist might look.

The renders show a device with three panels. The left-most rear panel houses a triple-camera setup in a layout that smells a lot like existing Galaxy Z Fold hardware. The middle panel is likely the outer display, with a front-facing camera clearly visible for those important folded-state selfies. The right-most bit looks display-free, suggesting it’s more of a backing slab than something interactive.

What sets this bendy blower apart is the G-shaped folding mechanism. Unlike HUAWEI's Mate XT with its S-style mix of inward and outward folds, Samsung's gadget keeps both hinges bending inward, a trick we've seen before in its Flex G display prototypes. This setup is less of a folding phone and more of a pocket-sized yoga master.

The teardown also shows a warning animation telling punters not to fold the camera panel first, presumably to avoid turning the thing into a €2,000 paperweight. The two hinges are different sizes, a design choice meant to avoid snapping the screen like a stale breadstick.

The side view in the animation shows a recessed frame in the middle, probably to wedge in the volume and power buttons. And while everyone is calling it the Galaxy G Fold, the One UI files refer to it as Multifold 7. That could just be an internal name, or maybe Samsung is embracing some actual sense and ditching the daft "tri-fold" moniker.

Whatever it's called, it's not a triple-screen phone, and it's not truly a tri-fold either. But since the industry can’t name things properly to save its life, we’re stuck with it until someone from marketing sobers up.
