Discontinuation Announcement

Samsung is discontinuing the Galaxy Z TriFold worldwide after only three months on the market. Sales will end first in Korea, then in the United States once existing stock is sold.

  • The U.S. launch was in January.
  • The phone is listed as “sold out” online but is still available in Samsung stores.

Pricing and Availability

The phone launched at $2,899 and had a short sales period from December in Korea to its March discontinuation globally.

Key Features and Design

The Galaxy Z TriFold is a foldable phone with a dual-fold design that opens to a 10-inch display and closes to a 6.5-inch cover screen.

  • Minimized screen creasing with a 3.9mm-thick third display section when unfolded.
  • Can run three portrait apps side-by-side, vertical tablet-style reading, and full-screen media.
  • Dual hinges with a dual-rail structure and an alarm for incorrect folding.

Camera System

The phone has a multi-camera setup for both the rear and front displays.

  • Rear: 200MP wide, 12MP ultra-wide, 10MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom.
  • Front: 10MP cover selfie camera and 10MP main screen selfie camera.

Battery and Hardware

Supporting Context

The Galaxy Z TriFold was Samsung’s first tri-fold smartphone, made to expand screen size with minimal compromise. Its short time on the market shows limited demand or production challenges.
