Samsung Says Tri-Fold Phone Is in Final Stage, Leak Shows Box-Style Unfolding

The first run is expected to be limited to select markets to test demand.

Overview

  • Samsung mobile chief TM Roh told media at IFA Berlin that development is in the final stage with a plan to release the device by the end of the year.
  • A leaked animation shared by @TechHighest and reported to come from One UI/tutorial assets depicts two flaps opening like a box to reveal a larger screen.
  • The clip suggests a central panel serves as the outer display when folded, differing from Huawei’s Mate XT approach described in reports.
  • Reports indicate an initial rollout in limited quantities and select markets rather than a broad global launch.
  • Pricing remains unannounced, but coverage expects a tag above $2,000 given the Galaxy Z Fold 7’s $1,999 price, and Samsung has not confirmed the name or full specifications.
