Samsung is preparing a bold leap in mobile innovation with its upcoming tri‑fold smartphone, potentially named the Galaxy G Fold or Galaxy Z TriFold, targeting launch in late 2025.
Despite focusing its July 2025 Galaxy Unpacked event on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Flip 7, and Watch 8 series, Samsung’s mobile chief TM Roh confirmed that the tri‑fold device is still on track for release by year‑end. Official comments align with earlier leaks indicating an October rollout.
This tri‑fold design introduces two hinges and a three‑section OLED display, letting the device transform from a compact phone into a tablet‑sized powerhouse with up to a 10‑inch display when fully unfolded. It’s expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, possibly include a silicon‑carbon battery, and pack a 200MP camera similar to the Fold 7.
With estimated pricing in the $3,000–$3,500 range, Samsung seems poised to compete directly with Huawei’s Mate XT Ultimate, though its global availability gives it a clear edge.
For Samsung, this marks more than another foldable, it’s about charting a new course for mobile device form‑factors and reinforcing its leadership in innovation.
