Samsung has launched the first-ever multi-folding smartphone, sparking internet frenzy.
Samsung Electronics on Tuesday, December, unveiled its Galaxy Z TriFold media day at Samsung Gangnam in Seoul, South Korea, reported NBC News.
TM Roh, Chief Executive Officer, President, and Head of Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics, said, “Samsung’s relentless pursuit of new possibilities continues to shape the future of mobile experiences.”
“Through years of innovation in foldable form factors, Galaxy Z TriFold solves one of the mobile industry’s longest-standing challenges, delivering the perfect balance between portability, premium performance, and productivity all in one device. Galaxy Z TriFold now expands the boundaries of what’s possible for mobile work, creativity, and connection,” he added.
The newly launched Galaxy Z TriFold has only one model in black with 16GB RAM, 512GB storage, a 10-inch display (2160x1584 resolution) and two inward-folding hinges. It is 3,594,000 South Korean won ($2,449).
Samsung’s multi-folding phone launch has sparked hilarious reactions from social media.
A user wrote, “Samsung really woke up today and said, ‘Why fold once when you can fold twice? The new Galaxy Z TriFold looks like a phone, a tablet, and a futuristic napkin all in one, and I’m kinda obsessed.”
“Samsung: ‘Let’s fold it twice.’ Apple: ‘Let’s move the camera a little to the left,’” joked another.
The third one gushed, “Samsung finally solved a trilemma that doesn't exist, bravo! ”
While announcing the long-anticipated phone launch on Monday, the company said that the TriFold phones will be available for customers in South Korea on December 12, followed by other markets, including China, Taiwan, Singapore, and the UAE.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z TriFold will be available in the United States in the first quarter of 2026.
