It's created a shiny black premium version of the retro phone which boasts two screens and a keypad with actual buttons- just like the good old days.

The "Leader 8" boasts two screens and a 12MP rear-facing camera along with a fingerprint sensor.

It follows mass hype surrounding the relaunch of the 90s classic, the Nokia 3310.

But unfortunately for us Brits, the Samsung blower will only go on sale in China, for now.

There's no official word on when it will launch in the UK.

But it's likely that the handsets will be up for grabs online sometime soon if you're willing to pay the worldwide shipping.

Samsung hasn't confirmed how much it will cost.
