Samsung’s Galaxy tri-fold tipped to launch this week
Samsung has teased and confirmed that its first tri-fold smartphone will launch this year, but we’ve yet to see an official launch date for the device. It seems we don’t have to wait much longer, as a new report from The Korea Herald suggests the next-generation foldable is set to debut at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) 2025 summit later this week. The summit will take place from October 31 to November 1 in Gyeongju, South Korea.
Samsung has yet to decide on a product name for its tri-fold. Rumors suggest it could be called Galaxy G Fold or Galaxy Z TriFold. The device will be extremely limited in availability, as Samsung reportedly plans to make only 50,000 to 200,000 units during the initial production phase.
And with a rumored $2,800 launch price, Samsung's tri-fold would be $1,000 more than the Galaxy Z Fold7’s launch price. It will be available in a select few markets according to previous reports, with China, South Korea, the US and the UAE making the cut.

Yeah, I think the first generation wouldn't be worth the money. Because it is Samsung's first time, there will be flaws, which will not make the phone worth it for now. But yeah, the future generations will sure be.
