The phone will reportedly include a “Nautilus Design” suggesting the display will roll up.

Following Max J’s original tweet, the leaker mentioned that Sony could launch the device in December or early 2020.

A 3220mAh battery suggests the phone will not have that large of a display, in comparison to the Mate X and Galaxy Fold.

Sony seems to only be in the prototype phase, and more features may change before the official launch.
