Samsung has apparently done just this with a support page that was spied on its website for a smartphone model that doesn't yet exist called the SM-G888N0. That support page only lists the model number, but that model number has been associated with the bendable Galaxy X smartphone that we've talked about before. While the support page gives up nothing about the smartphone, it is a confirmation that the device is in the works. Reports indicate that the SM-G888 device has received various certifications...

One source, however, has leaked that Samsung will likely reveal its dual-screen smartphone prototype sometime in the next few months. The dual-screen smartphone may be a preliminary prototype for Samsung’s supposedly bendable smartphone, the Galaxy X.
