Samsung has officially unveiled the Galaxy Z TriFold, a groundbreaking addition to its foldable lineup and a major milestone in the evolution of mobile devices.
Built on over a decade of foldable innovation, the Galaxy Z TriFold introduces a multi-folding design, a massive 10-inch display, and next-generation AI capabilities — all while maintaining the portability of a premium smartphone.
Launching in select markets including the UAE, Korea, China, Taiwan, and Singapore, the TriFold marks Samsung’s most ambitious foldable device to date.
Galaxy Z TriFold
The Galaxy Z TriFold is designed for users who want power, portability, and productivity in one device. When folded, it is compact and slim; when unfolded twice, it transforms into a 10-inch workspace, offering a tablet-like experience in your pocket.
Samsung emphasizes that this form factor solves a long-standing challenge: creating a device that blends the convenience of a phone with the multitasking power of a large-screen device.
Slim, Portable, and Incredibly Powerful
Despite its triple-folding design, the Galaxy Z TriFold is impressively thin — just 3.9 mm at its slimmest point when fully open. Inside, it features:
✔ Snapdragon® 8 Elite Mobile Platform for Galaxy
A customized, high-performance chipset tailored to handle AI processing, multitasking, and immersive media.
✔ 200MP Camera System
Flagship-grade imaging technology for capturing ultra-high-resolution photos.
✔ Largest Battery Ever in a Samsung Foldable
The device houses a 5,600 mAh three-cell battery, with each segment placed in a separate panel for balanced power distribution. With 45W super-fast charging, users can work, create, and stream throughout the day.
Built for durability and performance
Creating a device with two folds requires major structural advancements. Samsung re-engineered core elements of its foldable technology to ensure durability, smooth folding, and long-term reliability.
1. Advanced Armor FlexHinge™ Design
Two hinge sizes with a dual-rail structure for smoother, balanced folding.
Minimal gap when folded, contributing to its slim profile.
Reinforced with titanium hinge housing for improved durability.
2. Re-engineered 10-Inch Foldable Display
Specially developed folding architecture for double folding.
Shock-absorbing display layer plus a protective reinforced overcoat.
3. High-Strength Exterior Materials
Advanced Armor Aluminum frame for strength without added bulk.
Ceramic-glass fiber polymer back panel for crack resistance.
4. Rigorous Quality Assurance
Every unit undergoes:
CT scanning of internal circuits
Laser alignment checks for precise component placement
Multi-step durability and stress tests
Samsung’s meticulous engineering ensures reliability in a form factor never seen before on a smartphone.
A 10-inch AI-powered productivity machine
The Galaxy Z TriFold’s defining feature is its expansive 10-inch display, which behaves like having three 6.5-inch screens side by side.
Multitasking Superpowers
Users can:
Open three full portrait apps simultaneously
Resize windows freely
Work horizontally or vertically
Use multiple apps while video calling, browsing, writing, or designing
Samsung highlights examples like architects or creators who can simultaneously open blueprints, proposals, and calculators in one unified workspace.
Designed for the AI Era
