If you didn't know Samsung's working on a tablet with a display that folds not once, but twice, count yourself informed. Following initial reporting, further details are unfolding about the product build and timeline.

Besides its three-layered nature when folded, the only facet about this tablet we were able to glean a few weeks ago from industry sources was the unfurled display's 16:9 aspect ratio. We're now hearing from GizmoChina and Indian leaks blogger Yogesh that the product, which may be named the Galaxy Z Tab, will also include the Bluetooth-enabled S Pen stylus that will be featured with the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold3 and that next-generation ultra-thin glass — ironically thicker and supposedly stronger than the glass on top of current Galaxy foldables — will cover the display.

Speaking of the Z Fold3, many expect that foldable phablet to launch alongside the foldable clamshell Z Flip2 in August — Samsung previously announced that it wouldn't release a Galaxy Note device, which would usually fill this slot of the product cycle, for this year. There's debate within the company's marketing team, though, on whether they will tease the Z Tab at the event.

That brings us to the launch window. Previous speculation from anonymous sources indicated that the Z Tab would be announced before the end of the year. The word here is that it may actually be the first quarter of next year.
