Samsung is preparing to launch its first tri-fold phone, the Galaxy Z TriFold, this year. This phone was initially expected to be limited to China and South Korea, but a recent report indicates it might also be introduced in the US. The phone is anticipated to feature an inward-folding screen and a large 9.96-inch display.
Galaxy Z TriFold: Samsung is gearing up to launch its first tri-fold phone, the Galaxy Z TriFold, this year. Originally, it was planned to be available in limited quantities only in China and South Korea, but according to recent reports, the company might also introduce it in the US. The phone will feature an inward-folding screen, which will reduce the risk of damage from drops or impacts. Additionally, when fully unfolded, its display is estimated to be 9.96 inches, offering users a large and secure experience.
First Tri-Fold in America?
According to media reports, Samsung is currently deciding which countries will launch the new Galaxy Z TriFold, and the US is among the potential candidates. If Samsung launches it in the American market, it would be the first tri-fold phone there. While Huawei has already introduced its second-generation tri-fold model, the company does not currently offer its products in the US.
New Folding Mechanism and Security
The Galaxy Z TriFold is expected to feature an inward-folding screen, ensuring the screen remains protected when the phone is closed and reducing the risk of damage from drops or impacts. In contrast, Huawei's Mate XT folds outwards, leaving the display exposed when closed, which increases the likelihood of damage.
Screen Size and Weight
It is speculated that when fully unfolded, the Galaxy Z TriFold's screen could be 9.96 inches, making it approximately 30 percent larger than the Z Fold 6's 7.6-inch screen. Additionally, the phone might feature a 6.49-inch cover screen and is estimated to weigh around 300 grams.
The launch of the Galaxy Z TriFold could open a new chapter for Samsung in the folding phone market, offering users a novel experience with a larger display and enhanced security.
