A few days before Samsung is set to officially launch its new foldables, one of the new form factors for the Fold series was just teased by BTS member Jung Ho-seok, or J-Hope, in his Instagram Story. It was also spotted by fans during a sound check of the South Korean group's concert in Paris. BTS has frequently collaborated in the past, and his involvement in the campaign has already been teased.

The rumoured Galaxy Z Fold8 appears to have a stouter form factor, which should improve portability and one-handed use. Samsung is also still expected to release a standard-sized Fold, which has been called the Fold8 Ultra in the leaks, alongside the new Flip8. We are a few days away from Unpacked, so we'll get to hear more about these devices, and possibly more, soon.
