The patent entry suggests a single display with the hinge at the back that folds or flexes in the middle, resulting in screens on both front and back of the phone. When its fully expanded, the you’ll be staring at a large display with probably a tablet like experience.

Looking at the renders, you’ll also notice that the top and bottom bezels are huge, while the side bezels are tiny. And the profile of the phone when expanded is thin.
