The Galaxy Z Trifold encompasses Samsung Electronics’ cutting-edge technologies to provide an innovative user experience.
The Galaxy Z Trifold is designed with an ‘in-folding’ structure that folds both sides of the screen inward, a method optimized for protecting the main display. It is also equipped with an automatic alarm function that notifies the user with an on-screen notification and vibration if an abnormality is detected during the process of folding the phone.
The Galaxy Z Trifold is 12.9 mm when folded and 3.9 mm at the thinnest point when unfolded, making it the slimmest among the Galaxy Z Fold series ever.
The mobile processor (AP) is powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy and is equipped with a triple camera, including a 200-megapixel wide-angle camera.
It is also equipped with a battery with a capacity of 5600 milliampere (mAh), the largest among the Galaxy foldable series ever. A 3-cell battery was placed in each of the three panels to provide balanced power supply. It also supports up to 45W ultra-fast charging.
The Galaxy Z Trifold is equipped with the ‘Armor Flex Hinge’ optimized for the tri-folding structure and is made of thin and highly durable titanium material.
The Galaxy Z Trifold not only offers high productivity through its large screen, but also provides a variety of user experiences optimized for the mobile AI era.
You can run up to three apps side by side using the multi-window feature, and the app size can be freely adjusted as needed. Various apps provided by default on Galaxy smartphones and the latest ‘Galaxy AI’ features have also been optimized for the Galaxy Z Trifold’s large screen.
Samsung Electronics is the first Galaxy smartphone to support the tablet version of ‘Samsung Dex’ on the Galaxy Z Trifold, maximizing the usability of the large screen.
The Galaxy Z Trifold will first be released in Korea on the 12th, and will be sequentially released in global markets such as China, Taiwan, Singapore, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and the United States.
In Korea, it is sold at 20 stores nationwide, including Samsung.com and Samsung Gangnam. Prior to launch, product experience spaces will be set up in 20 stores nationwide starting on the 9th.
Tae-moon Roh, CEO of Samsung Electronics, said, “Samsung Electronics is leading the future of mobile experiences through the efforts of constantly exploring new possibilities.” “Galaxy Z Trifold is a product that achieves a balance between productivity and portability based on Samsung Electronics’ leadership in the field of new form factors, and will further expand the overall mobile experience, including work, creativity, and connectivity.”
