Watch: Samsung Unveils Galaxy Z TriFold, Its First Triple-Fold Smartphone With a 10-Inch Display
Samsung’s new flagship brings a tablet-sized screen, Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, and a titanium hinge system.
Samsung has introduced the Galaxy Z TriFold, its first smartphone that folds in three sections, marking a major step in the company’s foldable portfolio. When fully opened, the device expands into a 10-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display—offering users a tablet-like experience in a pocket-sized form.
The phone will go on sale in South Korea from December 12, with a global rollout planned for markets including China, Taiwan, Singapore, the UAE and the US soon after. Samsung has not yet announced pricing.
At its core, the Galaxy Z TriFold runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset, built on a 3nm process. The processor is paired with 16GB RAM and up to 1TB of storage, positioning the device as a performance-heavy foldable aimed at professional users and multitaskers.
Its main 10-inch display offers QXGA+ resolution, 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and up to 1600 nits brightness. On the outside, a 6.5-inch FHD+ cover screen—also 120Hz and protected by Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2—functions as a conventional smartphone display when folded.
