Samsung tri-fold smartphone is coming this year, President confirms

Samsung’s much-rumored tri-fold smartphone did not make an appearance at its Unpacked event yesterday, despite multiple past rumors claiming it would. So you may be wondering whether it’s still coming.

The answer is a resounding yes according to Samsung Electronics President TM Roh. He also revealed that the company aims to have the tri-fold device on the market by the end of this year.

As for naming, Roh says Samsung hasn’t yet decided – so it could end up being called Galaxy G Fold like some rumors said, or something completely different. Samsung will decide on this closer to its release. Right now, Roh says the company is focusing on “perfecting the product and its usability”.

According to past rumors, Samsung’s first tri-fold smartphone will fold inwards, unlike the Huawei Mate XT. This means Samsung’s device will have two screens – the folding one and a cover display. That has to be a more expensive setup, but the advantage is that the folding screen isn’t exposed while folded, which has been the main downside to Huawei’s setup.

Of course, we should expect the tri-fold device to be much more expensive than the already very much so Galaxy Z Fold7, unveiled yesterday with a price hike compared to its predecessor. Remember when we were all hoping that foldable smartphone prices would go down in time? Those were the days.
