There's a lot of excitement for Samsung's upcoming foldable smartphone. It may just be the company's first mass-market foldable smartphone, given that it's said to cost under $1,000. Like it does for many of its devices, Samsung is going to sell some accessories for the new Galaxy Fold as well.

We hear that there will be leather covers on offer for the Galaxy Fold 2. The premium leather material would certainly add a touch of class to the clamshell foldable smartphone.

Leather covers will be available for the Galaxy Fold 2

This won't be Samsung's first time offering a leather cover for a foldable smartphone. It already does this for the Galaxy Fold. Made of genuine Italian leather, one of these covers for the original Galaxy Fold is going to set you back $129.99.

You can expect the leather cover for the Galaxy Fold 2 to be in the same price range. Genuine accessories tend to be expensive after all. We also hear that the cover will be available in black and silver colors. The known color options for the Galaxy Fold 2 include black, white and purple.

There isn't a lot of information available about the Galaxy Fold 2's internal specs at this point in time. Its internal foldable display is expected to measure between 6.7 and 6.9-inch. A tiny cover display will also be present on the outside to display important info like the time, date and battery level.

Samsung hasn't confirmed when it's going to unveil its next foldable smartphone, or what it's going to be called. Rumor has it that it's going to be unveiled alongside the Galaxy S11. According to the latest information, the Galaxy S11 launch event is scheduled for February 11.
