Samsung Electronics today announced the launch of the Galaxy Z Trifold, expanding its portfolio of innovative mobile form factors for the AI era. Building on a decade of folding innovation, the Galaxy Z Trifold features advanced foldable technologies designed to meet the demands of a multi-fold device. Its slim profile ensures portability and high performance. When unfolded twice, it reveals a 10-inch display that enhances productivity and viewing, delivering a unique mobile experience.
Samsung’s commitment to innovation continues to shape the future of mobile experiences, said TM. Roe, Chief Executive Officer, President, and Head of Device Experience (DX) Division of Samsung Electronics. The years of development in foldable form factors have resulted in the Galaxy Z Trifold, which addresses the challenge of balancing portability, performance, and productivity in a single device. It expands the possibilities of mobile work, creativity, and connection.
Shaping The Future With Decades Of Mobile Experience
Samsung has created new mobile categories and experiences, such as large-screen devices, foldables, and mobile AI, all for users. Backed by advanced R&D, manufacturing, and strict quality control, the Galaxy Z tri-fold highlights Samsung’s commitment to performance and portability.
Samsung’s research and design start with user needs. Drawing on 10 years of foldable innovation, the Galaxy Z Trifold features a multi-folding form and an inward folding design to protect the main display. Its folding mechanism works easily. An auto-alarm notifies users of incorrect folding with on-screen alerts and vibrations. Each detail creates an intuitive, user-friendly experience.
Galaxy Z Trifold offers flagship performance with the customized Snapdragon 8 mobile platform, a 200MP camera on Galaxy A, and Samsung’s largest foldable phone battery at just 3.9mm at its thinnest point. Its 5600 mAh 3-cell battery is distributed across all three panels for balanced power and all-day use. With 45W Super-Fast Charging, Galaxy Z Trifold supports uninterrupted streaming, creation, and work.
To combine high performance with a thin, portable design, the core foldable technology has been re-optimized. Each component was engineered with a focus on structural innovation and product reliability.
- Samsung’s most advanced hinges yet: Building on its experience in foldable technology, Samsung refined the Armor Flex hinge for the Galaxy Z Trifold. Two differently sized hinges with a dual-rail structure provide a smoother, more stable fold, supporting the device’s varying weight and components. This hinge design also ensures the screen panels fit securely with minimal gaps, resulting in a thinner, more portable device.
- Restructured Foldable Display: The Galaxy Z Trifold features new display technology created for its 10-inch screen, which folds twice for portability. A reinforced overcoat and a shock-absorbing layer improve durability across the dual-folding display.
Advanced materials on the exterior:
- The titanium hinge housing protects the folding mechanism and resists wear.
- Fortified aluminum 7-frame adds rigidity without extra weight.
- A ceramic glass fiber reinforcement.
- The polymer back panel keeps the device thin and crack resistant.
- High-quality inspection on each device: every unit undergoes strict quality checks. CT scanning verifies that the flexible printed circuit board is manufactured to specification before assembly with other display components. Laser scanning ensures that all external and internal components are mounted at the correct height, maintaining surface quality.
Through design innovation, engineering mastery, and strict quality standards, each device is built to deliver the best possible user experience.
Samsung’s Most Versatile AI Phone Powered by The Largest Screen
The Galaxy Z Trifold improves productivity with features customized for its 10-inch display, the largest ever on a Galaxy phone. Inspired by dynamic users, it is designed to be powerful, versatile, and ready for the AI era.
When opened, the Galaxy Z Trifold’s 10-inch display functions like three 6.5-inch smartphones, delivering ample space for multitasking. Users can work across three portrait-sized apps by resizing windows side by side to focus on information or use a vertical orientation for intensive document review. For example, an architect can simultaneously review blueprints, write proposals, and calculate measurements within a single workspace. Incoming calls can be answered without disrupting the current layout, and the taskbar quickly restores recently used apps, letting users resume work with one tap. Key apps, including My Files and Samsung Health, are optimized for large screens to help users organize and access information efficiently.
ALEXI Z Trifold is the first mobile phone to offer a standalone Samsung DEX 8, enabling users to set up a fully functional environment from almost anywhere. In the quick settings panel, users can access up to four workspaces, each running five apps at once. This permits efficient multitasking, such as editing a presentation in one workspace while chatting or shopping in another. Extended mode supports a dual-screen experience with an external monitor, and users can drag and drop apps between screens for desktop-level productivity. Adding a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard further transforms the device into a portable workstation for complex tasks or creative projects.
Galaxy Z trifold is designed for excellence. Galaxy Ai9 improves its features for greater intuitiveness on a large screen. Photo assist includes generative editing and sketch-to-image. These tools leverage Galaxy Ai to support creative tasks at scale. Users can compare edits side-by-side. Browsing Assist streamlines Samsung Internet by providing instant summaries or translations as needed.
Gemini live on Galaxy Z trifold uses multi-model AI to interpret what users see, say, and do. Users can ask contextual questions and receive answers without switching apps, supporting advanced multitasking. The larger screen enables design advice; for example, when shown in a room, on a shopping site, or with paint swatches, it furnishes tailored recommendations. With screen or camera sharing, users can ask questions about what they are viewing and receive live assistance and information on one device.
A Pocket-Sized Cinematic Viewing Experience
Galaxy Z Trifold’s unique form factor improves productivity and offers an ideal platform for high-quality photo and video viewing.
Built for optimal viewing and portability, the Galaxy Z Trifold’s 10-inch main screen is well-suited for movies and shows. Users can watch videos and read documents side-by-side on YouTube. The minimized crease ensures uninterrupted content, and the slim profile allows the device to fit easily into a pocket when closed.
Leveraging Samsung’s visual display expertise, the device delivers smooth visuals on a Dynamic 2X AMOLED 10-inch cover screen with a refresh rate up to 120Hz. The display remains bright whether open or closed, offering up to 2600 nits of light on the cover and 1600 nits on the main screen. Vision Booster optimizes color and contrast across any lighting conditions, ensuring vivid, immersive visuals.
Availability And Offers
Galaxy Z Trifold is expected to be available in Korea on December 12, 2025, with subsequent launches in China, Taiwan, Singapore, the UAE, and the US. At launch, the device will be offered at select retail stores in each country for first-hand experience and in-store support.
