samsung Tri Fold Phone
Samsung is reportedly gearing up to launch its much-awaited tri-fold phone sooner than expected. While the tech giant has been tight-lipped about the same, a recent report has dropped that the expected Galaxy Z TriFold could debut next month at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. This also coincides with the timeline that Minseok Kang, VP and Head of Smartphone Product Planning at Samsung, earlier told us at the Galaxy Z Fold 7 launch event.
Here’s everything we know so far about Samsung’s first-ever tri-fold phone.
Samsung is reportedly preparing to showcase its first-ever tri-folding smartphone at the upcoming APEC summit, scheduled for October 31–November 1 in Gyeongju, South Korea, according to Yonhap News Agency.
The device is likely to be branded as the Galaxy Z TriFold. Unlike the traditional single-hinge design, the upcoming handset will likely feature two hinges, allowing it to fold into three distinct panels, a design that promises versatility across smartphone and tablet-like modes.
The Galaxy Z TriFold has a 10-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen, the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, up to 16GB RAM, and 256GB-1TB storage. It will run Android 16-based One UI 8.0 out of the box.
On its back, the phone will likely feature a 200MP primary camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera with autofocus, and a 50MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom. It could also have two 10MP selfie cameras.
When it is fully open, it will have a screen as big as a full-sized tablet. When it is fully closed, it will have a phone-like screen. When it is partially open, it will offer a Galaxy Z Fold 7-like, decently large screen. There is no information about the device’s battery capacity.
