According to the company’s post on Weibo, the book-style foldable device stands out with its gold-colored frame.

Samsung has announced that it will unveil its new foldable smartphone, the W27, in China on October 29. According to the company's post on the social media platform Weibo, the book-style device stands out with its gold-colored frame.
With this model, Samsung aims to strengthen its position in China's premium market segment. Initial images suggest that the W27 will feature an elegant and distinctive design. According to leaked information, the device is expected to have specifications similar to those of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. These may include the processor, camera system and display technology. However, this information has not yet been officially confirmed.
Samsung has a long-standing tradition of producing special W-series smartphones for the Chinese market. These models are generally positioned as more luxurious versions of the company's flagship devices available in global markets. This strategy allows Samsung to strengthen its presence in the premium segment while competing with local smartphone manufacturers.
Ahead of the W27's launch, details such as its price and battery capacity have also attracted attention. It remains unclear whether the smartphone will be available exclusively in China or introduced in other countries under a different name in the future. How the new Samsung model will perform in the market will become clearer after its launch.
