Samsung Tri-Fold: another big and shocking news has come in the world of technology – Samsung has officially confirmed that it is planning to launch its first tri-fold smartphone by the end of 2025. And this is not just a rumor, but TM Roh himself, who is the President and Head of Mobile of Samsung Electronics, has openly shared this while talking to the media.

This thing came to light when the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 series were officially launched in the Galaxy Unpacked event. After the event, TM Roh while addressing the journalists said – “We are working very actively on our tri-fold smartphone, and our target is to launch this device by the end of 2025.” He also said that Samsung is not making any compromise in this project, and the company is fully focusing on the usability and perfection of the product.

What will be the name of this Tri-Fold Phone?

Till now Samsung has not finalized the name of this new phone. Yes, some rumors are going on on the internet like “Galaxy G Fold” or “Galaxy Z Fold Tab”, but the company has not officially announced any name. TM Roh says that the name of the phone will be decided a little before the launch, when the product is in the final stage.

Design 

According to the leaks and reports that have surfaced so far, this tri-fold smartphone from Samsung will come with an inward-folding design. Meaning when the phone is opened, a “Z” like structure will be formed. This design will be different from the outward folding tri-fold of brands like Huawei. This also means that the device will become compact when folded, but when opened, it will give the experience of a full-sized tablet.

Leaked UI animations (from the One UI 8 beta build) also show that the phone will use two different sized hinges. When the phone is fully unfolded, the display size could be around 9.96 inches to 10 inches. And when in folded mode, a secondary screen could be around 6.5 inches.

Processor And Performance 

The new tri-fold device will be launched with the Samsung Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset, which is a top-tier processor and is currently considered the standard for flagship performance. This processor will make the phone very smooth in high-speed multitasking, gaming and AI tasks.

Battery 

There is a lot of discussion about the battery as well. According to some reports, Samsung may use silicon-carbon battery in this device, which is more efficient than traditional lithium batteries. The exact capacity has not been revealed yet, but there is a possibility that the battery will be above 5000mAh, especially when Huawei has given 5170mAh battery in its Pura 80 Ultra, Samsung will also not want to stay less than that.

Price and Availability

You must have understood that with such an innovative form factor, the price will also be premium. According to reports, its expected price could be above $2,900, i.e. up to ₹2.49 lakh in India. This means that this phone will be for those people who want to invest in high-end technology and want a truly futuristic device.

Now the most interesting thing is that Samsung will first release this tri-fold phone in a limited market. It can start from South Korea and China, where the foldable market has matured a bit. This will be a smart move so that Samsung can first see the user response, and then do a global rollout in 2026, possibly with an improved second-generation version.

Target Audience 

This device from Samsung will be for those users who are looking for a phone that fits easily in the pocket like a smartphone, but when needed can become a big tablet. Be it multitasking, watching movies, or using AI tools – this phone is going to become an all-in-one gadget.

Samsung’s Foldable Future 

Samsung has showcased a lot of foldable concepts in trade shows in the last few years, but this is the first time they have officially confirmed that a tri-fold device is going to come in the market. This step is not just the launch of a new product, but a message that Samsung is the world leader in foldable innovation and will keep exploring new form factors.

So friends, by the end of 2025 we are going to witness a smartphone that will be a combo of both phone and tablet and will take the technology to a new level. Now it remains to be seen with how much style Samsung fulfils its promise.
