Look, Samsung said they are shaping the future. And then this happened: The Galaxy Z TriFold came out. It’s not just a Z Fold update, let’s be real. It literally folds twice.
You get this massive screen when it’s open. 10 inches, they say. That’s the biggest display ever on a Galaxy phone. When it’s shut? It’s just 12.9mm thick. That’s a phone. Unfolded? It’s a tablet. And here’s the kicker—it’s only 3.9mm at its thinnest point when open. That is wild engineering.
-
The Screen: It basically works like three portrait-sized smartphones stitched together. Three apps, side-by-side. An architect can open blueprints, write a proposal, and calculate measurements all in one view. That kind of productivity is what draws people there.
-
The Brains: It runs on the customized Snapdragon 8 Elite. Not messing around.
-
The AI Play: Galaxy AI is all over this, too. Think Generative Edit, Sketch to Image—but on a screen where you can compare the before and after right next to each other. Gemini Live is there, enhanced, helping you with design advice when you show it a room, a shopping site, and paint swatches. High-level multitasking.
Double Hinge, 200MP Camera, and a Battery for Days
The thing is, making a phone fold twice without breaking takes serious guts. They put in two different-sized Armor FlexHinges. They use titanium housing and Advanced Armor Aluminum. It’s built tough. They even CT scan the circuit boards. That happened. And then they called it IP48 water resistant.
Jotting down the power specs, because they are proper flagship:
-
Camera: 200 MP main sensor. That’s huge for a foldable. You also get 3x Optical Zoom.
-
Battery: The biggest Samsung has put in a foldable, a 5,600 mAh three-cell system. It’s spread across the three panels for balance. That means all-day endurance. And 45W fast charging.
-
DeX Upgrade: This is massive. It’s the first phone to have standalone Samsung DeX. You don’t need an external screen to run a proper desktop environment. Up to four workspaces, five apps each. It makes it a portable workstation, or nothing.
It’s clear Samsung wants this to be the end-game device for power users. It’s launching in Korea first, December 12. No India date yet, but you know it’s coming early next year. And with a price tag expected to be around ₹2,20,000, this is the ultimate premium flex. The story is clearly ongoing, waiting for that India price reveal.
