Samsung's tri-fold smartphone to only launch in two countries, database listing suggests

01 April 2025
Same story as with the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition last year, unfortunately.

Sort by:

It shall be thicker than the XT Ultimate and heavier with a less impressive battery.

Or, at least 2 of those 3 boxes will be checked.

    Anonymous, 02 Apr 2025Not if they could sway Chinese nationalism with what is goi... moreAt this point they could triple their market share and it wouldn't be anywhere near Huawei's dominance but I am curious about the G Fold. Despite the early hype, the Mate XT's sales were below expectations. Huawei's initial expectations were 500k.

    And yeah, we're just sitting around in economic uncertainty. No one knows exactly how things will play out.

      Huawei mate xt ultimate killer💀🔥

          Long time Samsung supporter here. If they continue this bullshyt of alienating they're loyal fan bases in other markets and continue only providing these products to the same specific demographics time and time again, then all they're doing is putting money in their competitors pockets. I won't support Samsung if they don't want to offer us the chance at all of their products, not just the ones that they feel are best suited for my market.

                I don't think a lot of people are waiting for this anyways. Just a small number of tech enthusiasts or so

                  DarlingYext, 01 Apr 2025Good, the less countries it launces in, the better for the ... moreCountries are currently conducting market trials to assess demand before mass production. This is similar to the launch of electric vehicles in 2015, which were introduced in specific countries first before broader sales were considered. For example, Samsung’s tri-fold phone was initially released in Korea and China to create an initial impression, allowing the company to gauge the market response before expanding to other regions. This approach helps companies understand consumer interest and avoid large-scale production risks

                    I think the Z7, FE and G Fold will help Samsung get back some of that market share they lost in China. The Z Fold was doing better than the S line. It still might be.

                      Not only it will be garbage compared to Huawei tri fold but it will be even more expensive.
                      Since its not worth to launch globbaly it means its not worth buying at all.

                        Good, the less countries it launces in, the better for the envirement.
